In July 2018, the English Roses author opened up about her decision to

I remember being in the grocery store and overhearing someone speak to a friend who looked to be pretty far along in her pregnancy.  “You look great! Do you know what you’re having, or will it be a surprise?” A child, I thought. The pregnancy will result in a child. “We’re going to be surprised,”

My husband is a lover… and a yeller. He is thoughtful and understanding; sweet, kind and funny as hell; but his temper is short. When my daughter “acts out,” he immediately raises his voice. Of course, his response sounds harsh — at least on paper — but he does show restraint. His words may be

Jaime Pressly is cutting the cord. Now that her son, Dezi (with ex Eric Calvo), is 12 years old, the actress is no longer taking the crust off his sandwiches. “I was like, ‘You’re old enough now that I think you can deal with some crust,’ ” says Pressly, who also shares twins Leo and Lenon,

When I was a kid, summer break meant hours spent riding my bike. The only rule to follow was “be home before dark.” Summer meant swimming pools, night games, and always being outside. I long for my three sons to have the kind of summers I did growing up, but our modern world (and one

What’s so important about diagnosis? Isn’t autism just a label? These are questions that people going through assessment for Autism Spectrum Disorders regularly hear — and they’re difficult to answer on the spot. For me, the diagnosis of having autism — a neurodevelopment disorder — came as a relief to me, mainly because I suddenly had a way to explain my extreme childhood behaviors (and having always been “the
