Seattle Now: Pandemic motherhood's primal scream

This pandemic hasn’t been easy on any of us, but moms have borne the brunt of it.



That led Jessica Bennett to open the 'Primal Scream Line,' a phone number where you can call and just vent or laugh or cry or scream about the parental pressure cooker so many of us are living in.

Primal Scream is also a package of stories in The New York Times about the challenges facing mothers during the pandemic.

You can leave a message at the primal scream line at (212) 556-3800

GUEST: Jessica Bennett, editor-at-large for the New York Times
