For the last five years, he’s also been a father. Hayes has a hard time pinpointing how, exactly, becoming a father has changed him as a journalist, but he’s sure it has. “It’s so transformational to who you are as a human,” he explains. “It’s difficult to identify specific and distinct ways.” However, he allows that any story — and there are, sadly, many — involving a child in danger destroys him now....

It’s no secret that some people share their Netflix account and password details with others who don’t live under the same roof. That’s technically against the streaming service’s terms of service, but it’s what makes the service affordable for many families. However, the amount of people sharing accounts is “impacting” Netflix negatively. It’s “created some confusion about when and how Netflix can be shared,” Chengyi Long, Netflix director of product innovation, said in a post....

So, assuming Netflix lands the Knives Out franchise, when can we expect a sequel? Given that the deal is not even done yet, there is no clear timeline or many firm details in regards to a second Knives Out film. Other than writer and director Rian Johnson staying on, the one thing that is widely expected is that current 007 actor Daniel Craig will revive his role as Blanc, the brilliant sleuth with a so-bad-it’s-good southern drawl....

Specifically, the researchers wanted to understand changing baby name trends. Using data from the Social Security Administration, which has kept track of the most popular baby names since at least 1880, they developed a mathematical model that captures the conflicting desires parents feel to pick a name that both stands out and fits in. They found that if these two factors were the only ones at play, the same name would be the most popular every year....

According to numerous reports on Yahoo and elsewhere Aaron Taylor-Johnson — perhaps best known as Pietro Maximoff in Avengers: Age of Ultron — will become Daniel Craig’s James Bond replacement. At 32 years old, Johnson would be young-ish Bond, but not as young as the 30-year-old George Lazabeny was in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Taylor-Johson is English, despite the fact that he adopted non-English accents for his roles in Kick-Ass and Age of Ultron....

Using “maybe” as a response often feels like the most reasonable way to answer a child. Can we go to the playground after you get home from work? Well, it depends on how the day went. It depends on what’s for dinner. It depends on the weather and if mom and dad even have enough energy to leave the house. It all adds up to a big amorphous “maybe.” Many times, parents use “maybe” because they want to avoid the immediate consequences of saying no....

Quaden Bayles is a 9-year-old boy from Australia. His mother, Yarraka Bayles, posted a video reportedly on February 19th which featured her son Quaden crying uncontrollably in the back of her car. In the video, Quaden, who has dwarfism, says in the video to the camera: “Give me a knife, I want to kill myself.” Yarraka said in the video; she wanted to show what bullying does and how much it’s hurting her family....

This past Halloween, Jalayne dressed up as the Queen – complete with the full outfit of a pastel dress, pearls, a blue velvet hat, tights, and sensible, modest shoes. Jalayne was accompanied, as well, by “the Queen’s corgis.” Well, they aren’t really Queen Elizabeth’s beloved dogs — they’re Jalayne and her mom’s. Katelyn was brainstorming some ideas for dressing up that year and she wanted to incorporate the toddler’s favorite things: her corgis Uncle of Jack and Rascal....

According to the Hollywood trade paper, Variety, Macon Blair, who most recently helmed Netflix’s I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore, will write and direct The Toxic Avenger, with Kaufman and Herz on board as producers. In the original film, Toxie begins life as Melvin, a nerdy and scrawny janitor at a health club in the crime-riddled town of Tromaville, New Jersey. After being tormented by a gang of cruel bullies, Melvin falls three stories into a vat of toxic hazardous waste and soon emerges as a disfigured, super-strong, all-American superhero....

I tweaked one particular word. No matter which book I read to my son, mothers applied the emotional bandages, while fathers flexed adventure, daring-do, physical stamina, rules-bending, independence and, in newer books, the ‘cool’ factor. Every time I came across a story where the rabbit, raccoon, or bear mother soothed and nursed her upset, scared, or sick young offspring, I changed the parent’s gender to “father.” One morning when Macallah was two, my wife, Elizabeth, walked by and heard me voice-editing....

A thread on Reddit encouraged people to share the things they now retroactively get due to adulthood and it’s packed with wisdom you can only appreciate through life experience. A lot of the best answers revolved around the simple idiom: don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today. And that includes doing the damn dishes. “It’s best to wash dishes before you get out of the house every damn time,” u/waterlemon_champ commented....

For folks isolating or under quarantine, ordering takeout is a welcome respite from preparing every meal and a chance to support a local business that probably really needs it right now. The question is: is eating restaurant food safe while the coronavirus spreads around the country and world safe? The short answer: Probably! “There is no evidence that SARS-CoV-2 can be transmitted by eating food. I imagine that if this is possible, the risk is extremely low,” said Angela L....

“I got into college the old fashioned way: by letting my father’s celebrity speak for itself,” Ben Dreyfuss wrote in a sarcastic tweet on Tuesday. The 32-year-old Emerson College graduate joked that he was only admitted to the prestigious school because of his dad, the actor best known for his roles in Jaws and American Grafitti. Receiving over 53,000 likes so far, many people thought Dreyfuss’ tweet was hilariously spot-on—including his own mom, Jeramie Rain....

When the Sesame Street books expose the angry, petty side of our favorite monsters and outsized birds, this tends to follow a formula: a usually chill Muppet will become angry or jealous of someone who has something they want, usually in the form of attention, presents, validation or some combination of the three. They grow progressively angrier until they explode messily, either in the form of weeping (Sesame Street books are big on the waterworks) or verbal explosions of rage....

RELATED: The Best Activity And Fitness Trackers For Parents ShotTracker’s actually made up three parts: A water-resistant motion sensor that’s worn on the shooting arm and records shot attempts; a net sensor that tallies makes and misses; and a smartphone app that not only monitors all the stats in real time but also displays where on the court a player’s game is the strongest. Hit 25 straight treys from the top of the key, and you’ll see a “25/25,” “75 Points Scored,” and the time it took you do it....

“There is no good approach for using masks with children,” a spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics told Fatherly by email. No mask certified to block small, airborne particles is made to fit a child, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. “The reputable mask manufacturers don’t sell a child’s mask,” reiterates Brian Oliver, a professor and respiratory disease expert at the University of Technology Sydney. Other companies do sell face masks for children — Ligart’s anti-pollution mask for kids, a cartoon-cover varient on the popular N95 painter’s mask, claims to be ideal for smoke — but there’s little third-party research suggesting these products work....

Or maybe it was more direct: You’d been putting off a task for a while, and your partner mentioned that they’d thank you with a little something-something if you’d just up and do it already — so, of course, you stopped everything and finally did the task. However it started, it’s now become an established arrangement, spoken or unspoken. Couples sometimes find themselves in a dynamic where sex has essentially become a reward in their relationship....
