It feels like Never Have I Ever released both of its seasons at the perfect time. Season 1 of the Netflix original series created by Mindy Kaling dropped on Netflix at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in late April 2020. The series felt like a mental break from the world of isolation, taking audiences back to the days of high school relationships, family dynamics, and a few therapy sessions to boot....

February is Black History Month, a chance to honor and learn about the triumphs, sacrifices, and challenges of Black people in America. But some parents in Alabama are complaining about this important observation — which, btw, has only been around for a measly 52 years! — because they can’t seem to understand white privilege or the systemic oppression in America that hurts Black people every day. An article published yesterday on AL....

It’s World Doula Week, and we at SheKnows make no secret of the fact that we effing love doulas. And what’s not to love? They’re basically magical (and yet medically educated) sorceresses who manage to fill the roles of supportive birthing partner, teacher, therapist, and sometimes even birth-yoga-teacher all at once. And they’re proven to improve birth experiences — both in health and mental health categories. In fact, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists reports that “in addition to regular nursing care, continuous one-to-one emotional support is associated with improved outcomes for women in labor,” and research from DONA international shows that doula support contributes to everything from shorter labors to decreased C-section rates and fewer epidurals....

It might sound selfish to say it but, before I became a mom, I hadn’t thought too closely about my relationship with the environment. Sure, I used a recyclable cup and did my best to cut down on food waste. But something about having a baby really makes you scrutinize the choices you make. Not only are we living in a society that is struggling to cope with our current actions; parenthood means we’re suddenly thinking about our children’s future and even their children’s future....

On Tuesday morning, we saw Dwyane Wade confirm on Ellen that his 12-year-old came out to him as a transgender girl who wants to go by Zaya, and his supportive words warmed our hearts for the day. Today’s warm fuzzies come from Wade’s wife, Gabrielle Union, who tweeted about her “whip-smart” stepdaughter with an undeniable example of Zaya’s wisdom. “Meet Zaya,” Union tweeted on Tuesday afternoon. “She’s compassionate, loving, whip smart and we are so proud of her....

For a lot of us, Thanksgiving might look a little different this year. But just because we’re celebrating in smaller numbers and limiting travel does not mean that our cravings for classic Thanksgiving flavors have gone away! No way. We’re still eager to get our fill of decadent Thanksgiving sides, plenty of pie, and, of course, turkey. But if you’re not super excited by the prospect of cooking up an entire turkey for just one or two people, there’s a solution – Ina Garten suggests making a juicy, flavorful turkey breast for your small Thanksgiving gathering this year....

At just shy of two months old, Prince Louis is still figuring out what he likes and doesn’t like. But the royal tot already has at least one musical leaning — mom Kate Middleton just revealed one of Louis’ favorite songs. And while it’s a little surprising in the sense that it isn’t exactly a song one goes around singing every day, it makes perfect sense that it would be the littlest Cambridge kid‘s jam....

A Reddit user has reached a breaking point with her mom and she’s setting a boundary that the whole community thinks is completely justified. She began her post by explaining that she has an 8-month-old son who had colic and she’s suffering from postpartum depression. It’s been a difficult time. “My husband and I both have demanding jobs. I’d love to quit, but we can’t afford it right now. I don’t have many friends in the state where we live, and I’m lonely,” she wrote....

Gratitude: It’s not a word you usually hear in relation to death. I mean, you anticipate sadness, and certainly anger. Confusion is common. So are denial, disbelief, guilt, humiliation, and despair. But gratitude? The idea that one can be thankful over (and for) a loss and for death can feel foreign, abstract, or even wrong. But as 2020 comes to a close, this is precisely what I feel: gratitude. Strange as it sounds, I’m thankful my mother died this year....

When schools first announced closures and a shift to online learning, many worried about how this would affect the students who didn’t have computers, mobile devices, or adequate high-speed internet. Cities and school districts scrambled to fix this problem, and more than a month later, it’s still being resolved. But in the meantime, it seems some educators in New York City decided to report parents to child protective services when their children didn’t log into classes....

It’s bittersweet when your child finally reaches an age where they can join family game night as a player instead of a watcher. On the one hand, you can’t even fathom that your little one is already outgrowing their stacking rings and rattles. On the other, you’re excited to introduce them to the games you enjoyed as a kid, starting with the most classic board games in your collection. Especially in an era when even toddlers know how to work a smartphone before they’ve learned their ABCs, it’s important for your child’s development to integrate screen-free activities to their daily routine....
