Being a stay-at-home mom is hard work — on that, we hope all reading this can agree. But does that mean stay-at-home parents should get a “salary” from their partners? One mom contemplating leaving her job to have a third child thinks so, but because her boyfriend disagrees, she’s taken this dilemma to Reddit. Throwrastayhome told the AITA subreddit that she worked while caring for her other children, but as they consider having a third child and her boyfriend makes “five times” what she does, they’re thinking about having her stay home this time....

With an increasingly conservative Supreme Court, we’re living in a very scary time for the LGBTQ community in the U.S. Just this Monday, Justice Clarence Thomas and Justice Samuel Alito railed against 2015 decision Obergefell v. Hodges that led to the legalization of same-sex marriage across the country, arguing that it “enables courts and governments to brand religious adherents who believe that marriage is between one man and one woman as bigots” (I....

The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc across practically every segment of life in the U.S., and foster care — already a system troubled by problems — is suffering.

It’s no surprise that when you take a virtual stroll through Nate Berkus’ homes — via his gorgeously curated Instagram, that is — you’re surrounded by dreamy interiors that feel elegant, inviting, and accessible all at once. Open spaces, natural materials, pops of greenery, and neutral color schemes are hallmarks of the interior designer, author, and TV show host’s aesthetic. Even with two young children — 5-year-old Poppy and 2-year-old Oskar — Berkus and his husband, fellow interior designer Jeremiah Brent, decorated their airy Los Angeles home in a “sea of ivory....

As Prince Harry and his family adjust to their lives outside the royal family bubble, he’s made a lot of efforts to be candid about his mental health story — particularly how he’s sought help and support for himself and his wife, Meghan Markle, and advocates for mental health care for other people struggling. In clips from his Apple TV+ show with Oprah, The Me You Can’t See, Harry has shed new light on what he experienced in his childhood and adolescence....

Marijuana legalization has made headlines nationwide over the past decade as more and more states (15 and rising) go green, decriminalizing cannabis and making purchase legal for medical and recreational use. And a lot of moms use small amounts of cannabis to decompress, help with insomnia and more — especially during the pandemic. The latest state to get close to legalizing marijuana is a big one: New York. The state legislature is closing in on a measure legalizing adult-use recreational marijuana in the Empire State, according to several officials....

Actually, we should say that there’s no dilemma for Reddit user Hot-Boysenberry1392 — she is firm in her decision to name her baby boy Brian....

Growing up in today’s tech-savvy world has its share of benefits, but unfortunately that means many kids have too much screen time these days and not enough tech-free moments. The things is, though, once you introduce them to a board game, playing outside, and crafts where they can get their hands involved, they love it and can’t stop the fun. When you’re cooped up inside and they’ve run out of TV shows to watch and video games to play, why not help them pick up a new skill like knitting?...

Be honest: when was the last time you really got to cuddle? Not the obligatory, occasionally half-assed cuddling that comes before or after sex, either. Just a good old-fashioned, honest cuddle with a loved one? It’s probably been a while (given the social distancing guidance and pandemic of it all). And we can guess you’re probably missing the feeling of a cuddle without any additional health anxieties. Even when we aren’t advised to keep our distance from people not in our immediate households, it’s difficult to find that special time to connect with another....
