When Facebook Dating served me up both an international pilot and a mega-bucks currency trader in the same week in 2021, I should have known they were too good to be true.

For every magical, sparks-fly first date, there are probably at least two or three (or 10!) that you’d pay good money to forget.

“I don’t really ever worry about being kidnapped because my 6yo would just find me and ask for a snack.”
Observing kids as they absorb and try to make sense of the world around them can be fascinating for the adults in their lives, especially when it comes to language.
