They say motherhood changes a person and that may even extend to Gwyneth Paltrow. Despite that the mother of two has spent the better part of her career walking up and down red carpets, wearing pricey gowns, and posing for flashy cameras, at least one of those events is getting old — or rather “un-fun.” The Met Gala.

Let’s hope a Twitter-based app to ping you when your little one has peed is more about novelty than actual function. But what novelty? While there are certainly throngs of parents who are admitted social media addicts, resorting to a personalized tweet to learn of said peeing habits is like a huge Christmas present to STFU Parents. You gonna retweet that “my kid just peed!” tweet to your many, many followers mommies and daddies? Goodness knows some are doing it anyway. More
It was only handful of years ago that every news outlet and your mom were buzzing about open marriages. You know, the whole “Do Open Marriages Work?” and “Is Open The Answer to Infidelity?” So circa 2010. But the new type of relationship that is allegedly making the word “weird” fall from people’s lips is the highly illusive “commuter marriage.” More
The young men of Issaquah High School in Washington need harder homework or something. Or maybe the difficulty of classes needs to be cranked up a couple notches? How else do you explain that these kids have been carrying on a Who’s Hotter online voting contest for the past five years? Seriously, don’t you have kids have finals? More
A new milestone war is upon us. While mothers and fathers may be nervously eyeing when their tots reach certain walking and talking benchmarks, a new question has been raised from the YouTube depths. At what age does one conquer waterskiing? For this Australian baby, he was only seven months. More
Shanna Moakler isn’t the first mother to encounter a sexualizing hurdle when contemplating whether to breastfeed. The mother of three and ex-wife to Travis Barker says that she opted out because she found it to be “gross.” Free to be you and me and all that but calling herself “selfish” for her decision certainly isn’t necessary.

Last night at the 92Y Tribeca, Isabella Rossellini previewed one of her nine short films entitled “Mammas,” a contemplation of motherhood that pivots towards the animal kingdom. But by juxtaposing animal behavior with that of human mothers, Isabella meditates on many of the complex threads of motherhood. Specifically, the complex and loaded terrain of “maternal instinct.”

Reaching out to abused children is difficult to say the least. Considering that these kids are most likely being abused by the person that they depend on the most — their parents or guardians — encouraging them to speak up is fraught territory. But the Aid to Children and Adolescents at Risk Foundation (ANAR) in Spain has just pioneered a worthwhile attempt: a child abuse ad that appears differently to kids and grownups.

A moment of mourning for a 2-year-old little girl who was fatally wounded by her 5-year-old brother. While children accidently shooting one another is a unfortunately a recurring story, this little boy wasn’t tinkering with his parents’ unattended firearm collection. Not in the least.
