Tweetable Quotes: "As a mother, you can get triggered. It doesn't mean you don't like your kids. It doesn't mean you don't love your kids. It doesn't mean you're not attuning to your kids. It doesn't mean that you're doing it wrong. You're a human being." – Brooke Jean "We can't change what we don't acknowledge, and we're not going to change it if we're shaming ourselves.
