“In LA you can't tell the teenagers and the moms apart, which is so strange to me. And then it's like, "Who is leading who?" Are the moms emulating the daughters? In which case we're going backwards - that's not how it goes - the mothers teach the daughters how to be. It's a very strange thing to me.” MotherTeachCasesStrangeMomDaughterTeenagerBackwardsStrange Things Author:Laura Benanti
“The earliest impetuses for writing, for me, were simply the strange things I happened to notice in my everyday life, stuff I read about in the grocery store tabloids my mom bought, situations that struck me as compelling, anecdotes I'd heard, images, words, metaphors.” WritingStuffSituationHappenedHeardStrangeMomEverydayMetaphorMy MomStoresCompellingEveryday LifeGroceriesStrange ThingsTabloidsGrocery StoresAnecdotesImpetus Author:Dan Chaon

You're in the Second World War. And what happens when your mom calls you on your phone? Do you go, 'Oh! What is this strange talking brick device?'" No. It's stupid.

“I don't make a habit of watching my parents' films, because it is a little strange. But I will say that I binge watch House of Cards compulsively, and I think it's the first time I've ever seen one of my mom's projects and totally forgot she was my mom!

“Most of the bio men on earth were born to women, so it's pretty ordinary! But I think because I had come from a matriarchy - my father died when I was young, and I only have a sister and a stepsister - when I told my mom and my sister that I was having a boy, they were both like, "That does not compute within our family relation!" It was like, "Girls only here!" Now that all seems very strange to me.” ThinkingMenEarthGirlFatherBoysStrangeMomRelationMy MomOur FamilyMy SisterFather DiedMy Father Died Author:Maggie Nelson
“I think I was just a strange kid. I was definitely a weirdo. I ran a newspaper that had really dark stories all the time. My mom was always fun, she had this large box of costumes and I remember dressing up as a door-to-door saleswoman with a wig and this small suitcase I was using as a briefcase. I was walking down the street like that; I was sure I was fooling everyone.” ThinkingKidsRememberFunDarkStrangeMomWalkingMy MomRanWeirdo Author:Katie Dippold
