When Iris Rainer Dart's daughter was in nursery school in the late 1980s, she kept noticing an odd thing happening with her mom and finally confronted her.
“She came to me one day and she said, ‘Mommy, why do all the other mothers come up to you and say, ’I cried'?” Dart recalls. “I said, ‘Well, Mommy wrote a story that makes people cry.’ She didn’t think that was so great.”
