30 Baby Names That Give You Tons Of Great Nicknames

It wasn’t always this way. Once upon a time, friends and even strangers could casually call a boy named Daniel “Danny” and nobody would think a thing of it. Today, every young Daniel I know goes exclusively by his full name, by his parents’ choice. There’s nothing wrong with steering your child away from a nickname you dislike. You chose a name with care and love, so it’s natural to ask people to use that name....

36 Patriotic Baby Names

Keep in mind we did a list of patriotic baby names before and I am not repeating names (go over to that list if you want Justice, Liberty, and America). So if some of these names sound a bit quirky — or downright idiotic — hey, they’re just suggestions. I separated the names into male and female categories, but the trend now seems to be to switch them up. If you want to name your little girl Crockett, I can’t stop you....

5 Best Graduation Speeches Of 2013 From Hilarious To Heartwarming Videos

From Avengers (and Buffy) director Joss Whedon telling Wesleyan grads like it is to a gay high schooler’s heart-rending comments about equality, this has been the year for speeches that should be studied by future commencement speakers as a guide of what TO do in front of a class full of new grads.

5 Secrets For Raising A Kid Who Stands Up To Bullies

A factor cited in each of these cases: bullying. And these are but a few of the tragic lives lost because kids just couldn’t take it anymore. The statistics are heartbreaking: Suicide is the second leading cause of death for 10- to 34-year-olds, and the CDC estimates bullying is responsible for the loss of nearly 4,600 young lives each and every year. That’s 4,600 children whose lives could be saved if only people were kinder....

7 Major Wedding Mistakes That Can Lead To Divorce

A new study has looked at recently married and divorced Americans (married 2008 or later) to get the “other” factors leading to divorce. These include things like how long the couple dated before getting engaged, how much money they made, and other tidbits*.* The fact is so many other pieces are at play when it comes to divorce, one cannot simply say that ALL marriages are doomed. Some, it seems, are just more doomed than others....

7 Things Never To Do During A Toddler Tantrum

“One of the best things you can do is to think ahead and see if you can figure out what sets your child off,” says Tovah Klein, PhD, and author of How Toddlers Thrive. “If you know some aspects that increase the chances of a tantrum, such as missing a nap or being hungry, try to prepare ahead to avoid them.” But if your best efforts fail and your toddler becomes “overwhelmed by her emotions” (that’s a nice way of saying she’s kicking, screaming, and arching her back), there are things you should avoid doing as they could make the situation even worse....

8 Ridiculous Reasons Parents Homeschool Their Kids

But I’ve noticed a trend among homeschooling parents. Anytime ANYTHING happens at a school, even a one-off, silly thing that was a one in a million chance, they jump at the chance to tell us public school parents what idiots we are and how GLAD they are that they had the foresight to educate their kid at home. Overcompensating much, folks? Here’s the thing. I hear you! Homeschooling is great (for some families), but not everything is a “great reason to homeschool your kids....

A Body Suspension Artist Told Me Why Hanging From Hooks Is So Addictive

“I found out about suspension and body modification when I was 15,” Angela Ranieri, a stylist with Paul Mitchell, told me over tea. Ranieri has brightly colored hair, tattoos covering most of her arms and legs, and a pierced septum. “I just really enjoy that kind of lifestyle,” she said. Body suspension, for those unfamiliar with it, is the act of hanging from ropes attached to hooks or barbells pierced under the skin....
