Six years ago, writer Kim Brooks was visiting her folks in Virginia, when she realized she needed to run an errand. So she borrowed her mom’s minivan, strapped her 4-year-old son in the back seat, and headed to Target.

Tune in to hear about the choice Kim made that got her in trouble with the law.
