Cast iron skillets are kitchen must-haves, for novices and experts alike. They’re highly versatile, they’re workhorses, and high-quality skillets can last you years — even generations. Maybe that’s why this particular cookware is one of Ina Garten’s favorites. (She’s not only a sucker for cast-iron skillets, but she also recommends Le Creuset‘s cast-iron Dutch ovens, All-Clad saute pans, white baking dishes, and more....

Dwyane Wade‘s inner protective papa is out on full display today, and he is not messing around. Following his ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches-Wade’s allegations that he’s trying to “profit” from their daughter Zaya‘s “name and gender change,” the former NBA player made a heated statement on his Instagram. The dad of four wrote, “Since this must be the new way of parenting, I guess I have to address these allegations here, which is a damn shame....

There are so many things that happen on social media that need to stop, but today we’re calling out the wildly inappropriate practice of assuming a woman is pregnant based on what her body looks like. We’ve likely seen it happen to our friends and everyday people we don’t even know, but it is especially rampant for those in the public eye. Brie Bella, mom of two, posted a clip on social media recently, and “fans” quickly chimed in with comments asking if she’s pregnant with baby number three....

Food can easily become an obsession when you’re having a baby — whether you’re pregnant or raising a little one, it’s pretty much a constant topic on your mind. It makes sense, then, that food winds up inspiring many baby names, in many languages and traditions. But if you’re considering a baby name that refers to food or drink, we suggest you proceed with caution. These are names that can be absolutely beautiful, enchanting, and adorable....

If your family is as crazy about Halloween as mine is, you might still be hoping for some miracle to make all your favorite spooky activities suddenly safe again. But alas, if we’re to trust the CDC (please do), it looks like Halloween trick-or-treat cancellations are part of our “new normal.” We’ll just have to find new ways to have fun and prevent Halloween from becoming a very scary night indeed....

Finding durable toys that look cute and provide hours of entertainment for your kids isn’t as easy as it sounds. Sure, shelves are lined with hundreds of toys, but it’s rare to find ones that are safe, encourage independent play, and help develop creative minds. That’s where Melissa & Doug’s toys come in....

My husband Dave installed the hook-and-eye latch on the inside of our bedroom door — not as a means of protection for when the mood struck so much as protection from our son’s moods. Max was just nine years old when bipolar disorder turned our typically affectionate and thoughtful son into a cross between an NFL running back and a pissed off bull. I was the red flag. Often it was the most inconsequential of requests — start your homework, put away the Legos, get ready for bed — that resulted in Max charging toward me, head down, intent on knocking me over....

Is there a cuter, more photogenic family than Nate Berkus’? We think not! But great hair, handsome husband (that’d be fellow designer Jeremiah Brent) and two darling children aside, the design expert has some serious credibility when it comes to creating gorgeous, family-friendly spaces — which just happen to make great backdrops for memorable family holiday photos. And lucky for us, he’s sharing his knowledge. Berkus, who’s dad to 5-year-old Poppy and 2-year-old Oskar, recently teamed up with Starbucks to curate a Holiday At-Home Portrait Series, which features four different families (plus his own!...

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....

On February 18, Yarraka Bayles posted a Facebook video of her 9-year-old son, Quaden Bayles, crying and saying he wanted to kill himself. “This is the impact of bullying!” she wrote. “I seriously don’t know what else to do.” Since then, the video has gone viral, and a GoFundMe to help send Quaden to Disneyland has already raised over $250,000. Quaden has been routinely bullied for his dwarfism, and the internet has swarmed to support him, condemning the continued toll that bullying takes on our youth and letting Quaden know they have his back, now and always....

The evolution of the modern family has expanded beyond human beings you share genetics with — family is now, more than ever, widely accepted to include people you’ve chosen to be a part of your close-knit circle, as well as furry friends who are less like pets and more like children. A nuclear family is great, but so is a chosen family, or a blend of the two — unless you’re this Redditor’s unsatisfied sister....

It’s no secret that a lot of us don’t function without caffeine. It’s the life-changing elixir that helps us get through Monday morning meetings, red-eye flights and late night drives. And coffee, one of our favorite sources of caffeine, is even known to have some great health benefits. But the sad truth is that your daily iced cold brew or Red Bull can have some unfortunate side effects — and can, at times, make your body feel worse after your initial buzz has worn off....

When expecting moms think about shopping for maternity clothes, underwear might not immediately come to mind. When it comes to accommodating your growing belly and widening hips, the underwear currently in your dresser drawer probably isn’t going to cut it — you’re going to need maternity underwear. You see, as your baby grows, your regular underwear won’t expand with you and will dig into your skin instead. Your usual underwear might also not stay where you want it to, riding up or down and forcing you to adjust it constantly....
