I’m so excited.
Today, I’m being featured over on Café Mom’s The Stir, in their month-long Mother’s Day tribute to bloggers they love.
I’ve long been a fan of The Stir, a great parenting blog that mixes serious parenting tips with a lot of humor.
They are featuring a post I wrote on RealDelia a couple of years back, about how we talk to our kids about evil in the world.
Here’s the beginning of the post. Please be sure to head on over to The Stir to read the rest.
Enjoy!

My daughter came home from school yesterday and told me that her best friend had a “hate list.”
“What’s that?” I asked.
“It’s a list of all the people in the world that she hates.”
“Don’t make one yourself,” I said quickly. “That’s not nice.”
“Yeah, but I only have one person on it,” she responded.
“I don’t care. You’ll hurt someone’s feelings.”
She looked up at me, wide-eyed. “But it’s Hitler.”
