I can’t even believe this has to be said. Don’t change your baby’s diaper on a public table that people eat off of, okay? Also, don’t change your baby’s diaper around the general public while they are attempting to consume food. Get it? Got it? Good.

A new study came out this week on parenting styles, and it groups all parents into four distinct groups. I don’t seem to have a group. Damn near forty years old, and I’m still an outcast. More

My kids are forever walking around in too-tight T-shirts stained with god-knows-what and plastered with hideous photos of Optimus Prime or Super Mario characters like Yoshi and Toad. Their shorts are “athletic,” meaning they’re lightweight and mesh, usually with a white stripe down the sides. And their shoes? Don’t even get me started. We’ve got Spiderman runners, Spongebob flip-flops and Crocs adorned with Batman charms. The look is almost always topped off with one of those flat caps that are apparently all the rage (picture a kiddie-version of those hipster trucker hats).
All this to say, my kids dress like jerks. More
Kate Gosselin may be a fame whore but you know what? She’s seeming more and more “normal” after this whole Jon Gosselin-proclaiming-he’s-broke fiasco. Yesterday we reported on Jon’s single-dad predicament: pay rent or pay child support, one or the other. “I need to support my kids, but I could lose my house, and I need my home to continue to have custody,” he said of his catch-22 situation. But if Kate and her attorney are to be believed, Jon hasn’t had to pay child support since April (!). More
Imagine winning an Olympic gold medal – no doubt one of life’s greatest feats – then being told just moments later that both your grandparents died and that your mother is battling breast cancer. Crazy, right? Yet that’s precisely what happened to 26-year-old Chinese diver Wu Minxia, who on Sunday walked away with a gold medal – her country’s first – for her performance in the women’s 3-meter synchronized diving event. Hours later, Minxia’s parents broke the news that her grandparents had passed away more than a year ago, and that her mother has battled breast cancer for eight years (she’s now in remission). Talk about dropping a bombshell! More
Kate and Jon Gosselin had a pretty nasty split, as we all know, but they’re supposedly on good terms these days. I don’t see that lasting, however, since Jon says he can no longer afford to make his house payments if he supports his children:
“I am a single father who’s trying to make ends meet during a recession. What do I do – pay child support or rent? I need to support my kids, but I could lose my house, and I need my home to continue to have custody.”
So here’s a story I knew nothing about until early this morning, and I have since become obsessed. It’s about Ann Pettway, a 51-year-old woman who kidnapped a newborn baby from a New York City hospital more than two decades ago and went on to raise her as her own. During the 1987 kidnapping, Pettway traveled from her Connecticut home to the Harlem hospital, where she snatched up 3-week-old Carlina White (her parents had brought her to the emergency room that day). What’s especially chilling is that Carlina’s birth mother, Joy White, said Pettway approached her that day, dressed like a nurse, and said, “Don’t cry. Your daughter is going to be okay.” More
Word on the street (and by street we mean RadarOnline.com) is that Kourtney Kardashian is majorly pissed off at her sorry excuse for a mother Kris Jenner. That’s because Jenner is trying to profit off her granddaughter, 3-week-old Penelope Disick. More

“Why are there so many soccer games?” I moaned to my fiancé. I moan this about every two weeks, because every two weeks his answer is, “It’s almost over.” But let me tell you this: If you have two bonus children and a fiancé who all play soccer, soccer is never over. Ever. My fiancé is gone at least three nights a week for his daughter’s soccer game nights. And on the nights they don’t play an actual game, they still have soccer practice. After he announced he, too, was joining a soccer team (ages 35 and up), I told him, “Okay, I’ll see you never!” More
We’re kind of obsessed with Valentina Guerrero, the 10-month-old Miami girl with Down Syndrome who stars in swimwear designer Dolores Cortés‘ USA catalg and 2013 DC Kids ad campaign. We were curious to know how this campaign came to be, and so we reached out to Valentina’s mom, TV host and producer Cecilia Elizalde. Here’s what she had to say. More
Talks about helicopter parenting! Pennsylvania mom Catherine Venusto has been arrested for allegedly hacking her children’s school computer to change their grades. She changed her daughter’s failing grade from an F to an M (for “medical exception”). What’s really nutty is that she also changed her son’s 98 to a 99, which I don’t get one bit. But hey, the whole thing is bizarre to begin with, wouldn’t you say? More
We’ve all been there: hanging with our sweet little angels in public when they suddenly utter the word “Shit!” or “Fuck!” Happens all the time. That’s when most of us enter disciplinarian mode. We don’t freak out over it – doing so would make those “bad words” all the more appealing – but we use it as an opportunity to explain what is and isn’t appropriate to say out loud. Clearly Bristol Palin didn’t get the memo. Her 3-year-old son Tripp had a meltdown on national television – they star in reality show Bristol Palin: Life’s A Tripp – and in the midst of his anger and frustration he called his aunt Willow a “faggot.” Lovely, huh?

Supermodel and recently divorced mom of four Heidi Klum takes fashion very seriously. “We have a rule in the house,” she told reporters. “Rule No. 1 is always to look cool, and rule No. 2 is don’t forget about rule No. 1. We have other rules … but the No. 1 rule is to always look cool.” More
