Parenting any child during a quarantine is challenging.

Your relationship is dying. The two of you are fighting constantly lately without making up — and not talking at all some days. You rarely go out on dates anymore, and sex has become a distant memory. You’re drifting farther and farther apart. You’re on the brink of a break-up. You just know it. Or are you? Sometimes you find yourself doubting that splitting up is the right thing to do in between those moments when you’re sure there’s no other way out....

Coronavirus will have some truly devastating fallout — sickness, loss of life, hunger, economic hardship — but there is a lot of other emotional stuff we’re all going to be dealing with for a while.

Former President Donald Trump has some explaining to do — not to his critics, but to his supporters whom his campaign tricked into giving out millions of dollars they had never intended to donate. It’s a scheme that is ingenious (for Trump) because it infused a steady flow of cash during his second presidential run when he was struggling to raise funds, but it was done in a deceitful, and often damaging, way that left many of his donors claiming fraud or even in debt....

In case you didn’t already realize this, Generation Z appears to be smarter and more aware of things — or at least a million times more empathetic — than old folks like us, and we would do well to listen to them on topics such as racism, the environment, and LGBTQ+ issues. One Canadian teen didn’t exactly mean to be our instructor on “very basic trans etiquette,” but that’s just what happened with the thread he posted after Elliot Page came out as a trans man on Tuesday ....

As we enter the third year of the coronavirus pandemic it would appear that everyday life is slowly resuming. Mask mandates are lifting, adults are heading back into workspaces and the vaccine is readily available to anyone who is eligible. While this normalcy might be encouraging for some adults, parents are still apprehensive and confused as to what these changes in pandemic protocol mean for their children. “I have one kid in Kindergarten and another who is 3, and I’m scared everyday,” said Sara Sutton, a single mom and medical writer in Durham, NC....
