Maren Morris was one of the most vocal stars to criticize Brittany Aldean’s transphobic rhetoric on social media in August, and she has no intentions of backing down. In fact, the country music singer embraced her transgender allyship after Aldean’s segment with Tucker Carlson on his Fox News show aired, during which the host called Morris “a lunatic country music person.” In an iconic follow-up, Morris created t-shirts with the phrase stamped on the chest and is selling them to raise proceeds for GLAAD’s Transgender Media Program and Trans Lifeline....
Parents have always been creative when it comes to childcare. We invented baby-wearing when moms needed to gather food. We developed communities when we needed to share duties. We made nannies, schools, daycares, and au pairs when family and community wasn’t enough.

The coronavirus pandemic is complicating an already difficult situation, and every other day we’re getting different information about whether it’s safe to send children to schools, camps and daycares....

As a first-time parent, one of the most exciting aspects of having a child is choosing their name — unless, like this pregnant mother of twin boys, an outdated family naming tradition is causing waves.

Everyone’s favorite country music awards are back — but this year, nobody’s happy about it. The CMAs are facing major backlash from fans, media, and even would-be nominees like Garth Brooks for their decision to go ahead with an indoor, mask-free awards show as COVID-19 cases reach new daily highs across the US. Hosted by Reba McEntire and Darius Rucker, the show has been plagued with pandemic-related concerns from the start, including last-minute cancellations from artists Lee Brice, Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard, Lady A, and Rascal Flatts after positive COVID tests — the latter two just hours before the show was scheduled to begin....
