Lucinda and Meredith in “Mama Tried”

LLucinda

Callie drops Sofia off at your place sometimes when she has to work or when she has plans or when she needs a night off. Correct?

A "night off"? Being a mom isn't a job. We don't punch in and punch out. There are no nights off. We are both single parents. That's not a dirty word. But we do need help getting our kids to where they need to be with all of their limbs intact. So we lean on each other. That's not a sign of weakness or bad parenting, if that's where you're going with this. It takes a village, and we have a village.

LLucinda

Here in Seattle.

What?

LLucinda

The village you just mentioned, the seamless support system these mothers built, this essential network. It's all here in Seattle. Sofia's friends and her school, her teachers. Her home is here in Seattle. That's what Sofia would be leaving.
