Soap operas have nothing on the family drama we’ve seen being discussed lately on Reddit, where real people have taken to describing some truly awful interpersonal relations. It’s especially hard to read about the hurtful things parents can do to each other, like one story from a dad whose wife has lied to him about her unplanned pregnancy with their son two years ago. What makes us really worried, however, is that the slash-and-burn attitude of Reddit readers may encourage people to make rash decisions they’ll regret later....

It’s not often you get an up-close-and-personal look beyond the walls of royal homes. But then again, we’re living in unprecedented times where everyone — including royals — are hunkered down at home during the novel coronavirus pandemic. And as such, we’re getting a rare glimpse inside of Royal Lodge Windsor, the sprawling estate shared by Sarah Ferguson and her ex-husband Prince Andrew. While official photos inside of royal residences are rarely released, photos from inside Royal Lodge Windsor have been surfacing via the royals’ social media feeds....

A new mom wants feedback from Reddit’s AITA forum about her response to baby weight comments — and the users have spoken. She began by explaining that she recently gave birth to her third child after a very difficult pregnancy. She suffered from hyperemesis gravidarum, which meant she couldn’t keep liquids down. She was throwing up three to seven times a day, became hypoglycemic and was taking three different anti-nausea medications....

If you’ve heard of the pelvic floor, you’ve likely also heard of Kegels — exercises that strengthen the muscles that support the pelvic floor organs, including the uterus, bladder, and rectum. Kegels contract and relax these muscles to keep them functioning at their best. But Kegels aren’t the end all be all for a healthier pelvic floor.

We’re deep into a new school year and odds are, parent-teacher conference notifications are starting to pop up. But these annual or biannual meetings are more just than a check-in — they’re opportunities to understand your child in new ways, gain insight into his or her development, and connect with the adult in their life with whom they spend the better part of their day. “Kids will be more successful in school when parents and teachers work together as a team,” Sarah Miller, a Michigan educator who taught children from grades Pre-K to high school, tells SheKnows....
