After a grueling season, we’re finally here: part one of the two-part, four-hour Bachelor finale. When we last left young Peter Weber, he’d sent home Victoria F. and set her free to go on The Women Tell All. But — as Peter emphasized repeatedly — this in no way meant he was any closer to making up his mind. While his emotional rose exchange with Madison raised a few eyebrows, Peter swears he’s split 50/50 between Madison and Hannah Ann....

If you weren’t tempted by our recent kid-friendly road trip guides to the Hudson Valley or Marfa, Texas, perhaps a magical mountain town could tempt your family’s fancy? Because tucked away in the mountains along the Blue Ridge Parkway is the hidden retreat of the east: Asheville, North Carolina. The little city is a haven full of unique experiences for all ages, with an eclectic assortment of things to see and do — from the truly elegant to the kitschy (hi, double-decker bus with quaint coffeeshop housed inside)....

When we were kids, nothing made us more excited for the holidays than the prospect of opening up our advent calendars each day to find a piece of candy or a small toy waiting for us within. They say the holidays are never as magical once you grow up, but we say: it doesn’t have to be that way....

So we already knew that childcare costs more than college — and most mortgages. And yet, it has never hit home quite so hard as this week, as a Reddit thread posted Wednesday on r/Parenting and titled, “How much do you spend on childcare per month?” has started picking up traction here in the sad, stressed interwebs of parental life in 2020. “We are just about to be paying $600 per month for part time childcare for my 8 month old, & my husband is upset that the cost is that much,” the original poster, u/psychreader, writes....

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey joined the cast over a decade ago, filming her first season in 2010 with young daughter Noelle Robinson, soon-to-be fiancé Peter Thomas, and new bestie NeNe Leakes — so really, we don’t need to tell you how much has changed for the Bravo star. Come season 13, Cynthia is walking down the aisle as Mrs. Mike Hill, a happy ending she’s long dreamed of and was proud to pull off despite backlash for hosting the wedding amid the COVID-19 pandemic....

When we learned this week that the Disney Channel’s cartoon series The Owl House is making history with the brand’s first queer kid lead character, a Dominican-American teen named Luz, we rejoiced. Representation! Non-binary sexuality! Normalizing non-hetero orientations and relationships from the get-go in kids’ TV! It’s about freaking time. There was so much to celebrate, really — that is, until we started reading the reactions from so many parents who are determined to stifle any potential expressions/explorations of non-normative sexual identities in their kids....

When you think of the Fourth of July, your mind probably flashes to fireworks, American flags, and backyard barbecues. What you may not immediately think of but should, is sales. Fortunately, there are plenty of sweet deals to be had this Fourth of July if you know where to look....

I sing to my daughter in my best Beyoncé voice: “Brown skin girl / Your skin just like pearls / The best thing in the world / Never trade you for anybody else.” I sing these words and hum these tunes consistently, because it takes a lot of repetition to reassure my own brown skin girl that she truly is the very best thing in this world. My beautiful chocolate girl, my daughter, my heart....

Before having my son, I told myself I would be the most disciplined person ever. I would not spoil him. He would have distinct times for naps, meals, and play. Boy, was I kidding myself. In reality, it’s impossible to be so rigid, especially with babies. And even as they grow into toddlers and certain things stabilize, there’s always change — and it is constant. Just when you think you have a routine down, it backfires....

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake may have just given us all one sweet reason to smile: a new addition to the Biel-Timberlake fam. The couple — thought to be quarantining at their Montana ranch — reportedly welcomed their second child last week following a secret pregnancy. How do you think big brother Silas, 5, feels about having another baby in the house? We’re betting he was pretty stoked, especially since rumor has it the newcomer is another little boy....

Amazing news: The Michelle Obama memoir Becoming, which already has inspired more than 14 million readers worldwide, is being turned into a children’s book! The former FLOTUS announced yesterday that they are releasing a new edition of her amazing life story, called Becoming: Adapted for Young Readers, on March 2. We’re giddy just thinking about how many kids are going to be forever changed by reading about her journey from a childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to, of course, her time at the White House with her ride-or-die, former President Barack Obama....

Growing up, our most-hated three-word sentences were likely, in ascending order of awfulness, “Clean your room,” “I said so,” and “Mother knows best.” It’s not that we were ungrateful for Mom’s endless stream of advice; we just wanted to figure things out ourselves. (And hey, even that is a testament to our moms giving us opportunities to feel independent!) Still, our mamas stuck by us through all of our phases — from lovable toddler sidekick to angsty, emo teen (guilty) to much more mature adults — and they continued to shower us with their love and their best motherly advice to this day....

As if raising small humans weren’t challenging enough, sometimes, we also have to do it while we’re feeling our absolute worst. But how are you supposed to keep your kids entertained — and safe! — when you feel like you can barely keep your head above (the toilet bowl) water? Parenting while sick seems like an impossible task. Yet, time and again, people from all around the world somehow manage to keep themselves and their kids functioning during cold and flu seasons....

Deciding whether or not to keep a pregnancy is not only every woman’s right, but also a life-altering decision. It’s a choice this Reddit poster isn’t taking lightly, but one that she is prepared to undertake — alone, no less. She took to the platform’s Baby Bumps subreddit to inquire about a moral conundrum she’s facing, and other users met her concerns with sound advice and warm support. The woman provided insight on her situation, writing, “just found out last week that I’m (29f) 5 weeks pregnant with my tinder hookup’s (32m) baby....

A dresser is one of the most foundational items in your bedroom, aside from a bed itself, so it’s important to choose the right one that’s going to last through all the times you open and close it while getting ready in the morning. A 6-drawer dresser is one of the most universal options since it seems to fit the perfect amount of clothes, toys, accessories, or all the other miscellaneous items you can squeeze in there....
