Many parents and mental health experts are up in arms — and not to give high-fives — over an opinion article in the Omaha World-Herald by parenting columnist John Rosemond. He writes that he "will not slap the upraised palm of a person who is not my peer," and that a high-five by a child to a parent "is not compatible with respect." Parents and psychologists gave their reaction to us over the viral article, saying a high-five "provides a child with a sense of competent achievement and allows them to understand where to direct their efforts during future tasks." Rosemond, 74, also spoke to us about the wave of negative backlash he's gotten from the story. What do you think? Take our poll here. |

When you eat can be nearly as important as what you eat when it comes to weight loss and improving blood sugar and cholesterol levels, according to a pair of studies published in the journal Cell Metabolism. One study found that eating later in the day made people burn calories at a slower rate and increased a person's obesity risk, while a second study found that consuming meals within a 10-hour window during the day shrunk "bad cholesterol" particles and improved blood pressure and blood sugar levels. Here are all the benefits of eating in a 10-hour window, as well as the negatives of eating late at night. |

Before 3-year-old Blakely is going to accept that Mommy is pregnant with her future sibling in her tummy, she's going to need a few important questions answered. Namely, "Is it gonna come out when it's big?" and, "Is it gonna tickle me?" Her adorable questions were captured in a TikTok video by her mom that also includes the biggest question of them all: "How can a baby get in your tummy?" Her mom, Kadyn Smith, does a two-step around a way-too-early birds and the bees speech by letting Blakely know that "Mommy and Daddy put it there." The light bulb then goes off. "Oh!" Blakely says. "Did you open your tummy and then the baby got in there?" Eh, close enough. See the cute video here. |
