I have 4 kids, all girls. 10th grade, 7th grade, 4 I have 4 kids, all girls. 10th grade, 7th grade, 4th grade, and kindergarten.

My oldest is learning how to drive, takes multiple AP classes, and sleeps until noon on the weekends.

My youngest still needs help getting strapped into her booster seat, can’t count past 20 (always skipping 13), and rises with the lark regardless of the day of the week.

I have 2 kids in puberty, and 2 kids who can’t pronounce the word puberty.

In my latest post for @dallas_moms, I’m talking about strategies for getting siblings with a wide age gap to stay connected.

As typos stand out to word nerds, legal mistakes stand out to lawyers. There’s not a meme funny enough to catch my eye the way a legal mistake does when I mindlessly scroll my social media feeds. My brain instantly begins drafting the demand letter and calculating damages. 

Inadvertent copyright infringement is one of the costliest mistakes I see influencers and bloggers make. 
Using a photo without permission can cost you thousands of dollars. Simply linking back to the photo source and citing the photographer’s name? That’s not permission. 

Believe it or not but there are automated computer programs scouring the Internet looking for unauthorized uses of copyrighted images. And plenty of lawyers willing to work on contingency to go after unsuspecting bloggers and influencers.
