If all you know about Leah Messer is that she was on Teen Mom 2, had three daughters, and went to rehab for prescription painkiller addiction — then you really only have one (very) small fraction of her story. Since surviving childhood abuse, being thrown into the limelight as a pregnant teen, getting through two marriages and divorces, and, yes, rehab, Messer has picked up the pieces and emerged on the other side that much stronger — and wiser, and more determined to break the cycles of addiction and abuse for the sake of her own children....

We’re past Halloween and Election Day, which means…Hanukkah and Christmas, right?! At least that’s what the advertisers and store displays would have you think. But whether or not you’re busting out the mistletoe already, you have to admit it’s quite quickly become a cold, dark world out there. And what better way to brighten it up than with some festive holiday fashion for kids of all genders? Whether your kids are little traditionals (fans of a Nutracker-ready red bow tie or holiday plaid pajamas, perhaps?...

These celebrity moms make us all feel better when they share the highs and lows of parenting. However, he insists, this is not true. “I have rules, just fewer of them than Linda does, and I hardly ‘spoil’ the kids when I make them get jobs to earn their own money. The kids are great kids. They’ve all got over 4.0 GPAs, the boys are varsity athletes, and my daughter is on the dance team....

With Taylor Swift‘s new album drop comes fervent speculation from her fans about sly messages hidden in the lyrics of Midnights’ tracks, and like she so cleverly did with Folklore’s “Betty,” Swifties think their queen revealed the name of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds‘ next child in one of her new songs. Speculation is ablaze on Twitter about the track “You’re On Your Own, Kid,” which includes the phrase “So long, Daisy May” after the first chorus....

Is anyone else is dreaming of a vacation in Greece these days? Besides all that gorgeous Mamma Mia! scenery, there are so many reasons to be inspired by this country. Whether your family hails from Greece or not, you’ve got roots there in any case, seeing as it’s the birthplace of Western society. Plus: It’s the home of — and inspiration for — a whole slew of beautiful Greek baby names, the best of which we’ll try to list for you here....

“Did they have TVs when you were a kid?” This is one of my 10-year-old daughter’s frequent jokes. On any given day, you can insert an item she thinks I’m so old I must have lived without as a child: stoves, combs, pizza, you name it. At one point she asked if we had air when I was a kid. For a long time, I took these and her many other jokes about my age in stride....

Spending time with your mother-in-law shouldn’t be so hard over the holidays. Simply let her make the schedule, don’t pencil in any time with your own family at all, and let her scream insults at you whenever she feels like it. What’s so difficult about that? All jokes aside, one Redditor’s MIL actually believes her son and daughter-in-law should follow these guidelines, and it’s mind-boggling. The situation is so complicated, Redditors aren’t even exactly sure how to best handle the situation....

Welcoming a new baby into the family is a tough transition. It’s hard work, yes, but sometimes when new parents don’t feel they’re bonding or falling immediately in love with the newborn — which is perfectly normal, btw — they start to question themselves. Our hearts are breaking for a guilt-ridden first-time-dad who took to Reddit to admit that he isn’t head over heels for his baby. “I don’t know if anybody will read this, but I don’t feel love for my 2....

In the six years since Robin Williams’ death at the age of 63, there’s been endless conjecture about what drove the beloved star to take his own life. But ahead of the new documentary Robin’s Wish, his widow Susan Schneider Williams is opening up about her husband’s final days — and how it felt to learn that, unbeknownst to both of them at the time, he was suffering from Lewy body dementia....

In about a month, Sam Heughan and his former Outlander co-star Graham McTavish will be back on our screens. No, Outlander is not back yet, but they are giving us the next best thing: themselves. Gallivanting around Scotland in kilts, drinking whisky, running amok, and causing general havoc. At least it looks that way from the trailer. Men in Kilts is the gift we need in 2021, and Starz dropped the trailer and premiere date, so mark your calendars for Feb....

Serena Williams won her 73rd tennis title on Sunday, at the ASB Classic in New Zealand. It was her first championship win since she gave birth to daughter Alexis Olympia in 2017. But while she said she felt like this victory took a long time to happen, for moms watching at home, it might have come at just the right time. “It’s been a long time,” she told CNN of the win, for which she’s donating her $43,000 prize money to Australian wildfire relief....

Dealing with dirty dishes is a daily fact of life for most of us, thanks to the fact that we’re feeding our families all day long. But some occasions call for more dinnerware than many of us have on hand, or include guests who might prefer non-breakable plates — not to mention the fact that there are days when tired parents simply need a break from that nightly suds-up at the sink or the loading of the dishwasher....
