Each news of a death likely caused by COVID-19 is a tragedy. But one that occurred this week is hitting us particularly hard: Charlotte Figi, who died at age 13 on Tuesday. She was the girl whose severe epilepsy helped spawn the development of medical CBD treatments and even had a marijuana strain, Charlotte’s Web, named after her. Her mother, Paige, wrote about their incredible fight for her life here on SheKnows earlier this year, and our hearts are hurting so much for her now....

TikTok is everything for most teens (and many adults) at the moment. The video-sharing social media platform became super popular at the start of the pandemic in 2020, and in the time since we’ve been treated to 15-second to 3-minute clips of dance routines, cooking, fashion and beauty must-haves, and more. Another popular TikTok trend is pranks — and that’s where one mom reached her limit. Her 13-year-old daughter, who lives for the app, played a cruel prank on her brother — and there were some pretty hefty consequences from mom....

Christmas is, simply put, an absolute circus for some families, and one Reddit man is exposing the clowns running amok in his. Sharing his holiday woes on the platform’s “Am I The A—hole” forum, his tale involves adultery, misbehaving step-sisters, family members gone MIA, and more. Buckle up, because this sleigh ride is about to get bumpy. Let’s set the scene here, because it’s a super-complicated one. OP, 29, shares that he is the only child between his mother and father....

Breastfeeding is healthy for babies and mothers, and there are countless scientific studies backing this up. Medicine and science had to do a lot of work to undo the anti-breastfeeding, pro-formula rhetoric that dominated the U.S. for much of the 20th century. But none of this should come at the cost of a parent’s health, physical or mental. One pregnant mom on Reddit is speaking up after being shamed for deciding to formula-feed her baby, even though she’s doing so for her own mental health....

It’s the most wonderful time of year — that is, unless the bulk of the planning and preparation of all Holiday MagicTM is your responsibility. (If you identify as a woman, it’s most likely you). Personally, I am a holiday agnostic. I’m not opposed to someone else doing all the work and appreciate the wonder and joy, but I’m not particularly keen to take on the falalalalala for myself. After all, as a parent, once the school year starts, you disappear — swallowed into the endless minutiae it takes to help their kids thrive at school....
