I'm all for knocking the rich, and have my pitchfork/torches ready for when we finally get around to storming the castle gates, but this article is disingenuous, circle-jerk trash talking of the lowest order. If writing a check was all it took to be a good parent, more rich kids would be useful citizens (as opposed to…

I've worked with thousands of D&A psych clients and AA is dreaded in psychology.

I think that the author is conflating self esteem and ego. You can have awful self loathing and still have a massive, out of control ego.

Hmmm. I've found that as the extra money in my bank increases, I tend to spend more. I used to not get pedicures regularly, now I do. I started buying expensive clothes again. I spend a lot on facial products that are not a necessity. I know that if my financial situation changes, I can cut these things out in an…

I'm a biologist, (but I work on bugs) so my objection to the way GMOs are being handled is less to do with concern about organic-ness and such, and more to do with caution about the process of creating and distributing GMOs under cover of patents and non disclosure. We SHOULD be asking lots of questions about GMOs,…

Well, I think one of the problems with GMOs is (as in the case with Monsanto), the GMO food can still cross pollinate the non-GMO food field a few miles away. Because Monsanto owns the rights to that GMO item, any cross pollination can result in a legal battle over the hybridized food. Most of the time Monsanto wins,…

Reminds me of a Tumblr I saw a few years ago that was nothing but pictures of Michael Buble with velociraptors photoshopped into them.

I had the same sleeping issue! My daughter (now 4.5) would only sleep like that! I got a Moby wrap from a cousin for my shower and wore her in it for fear of her rolling off at night. A lightweight blanket wrapped around the two of us also served in a pinch. Mine did not have colic, but my cousin's both did; Little…

Yep, right there with you, I lost a pregnancy in December. So I am extra paranoid this time around even though I know it was probably just an abnormality and nothing I did that caused it. The Internet can be evil sometimes!

I'm 9 weeks- I propose that we start a little pregnancy group here on Jezebel. It looks like there are several first trimester ladies here in this thread alone. I want to talk about my pregnancy, but everyone on the Internet is horrible.

I worked as a babysitter/nanny all through college and after college started an online nanny/babysitting service that matches college students/families. Here's my take on what to pay your nanny:

First...

I just got a juicer! The sky is the limit now!!!!

Well this post is just all kinds of win.

Is the biblical diet different than the paleo one? And do the people who are on them start living like they were in those times? Because I would think that you should consider lifestyle + diet. For instance, people who are very physically active or have more muscle mass might need more protein and calories in their…

What exactly is going to happen when I reach magical X pounds?

Why do people care so much about what I weigh. I mean, we just met. Sometimes not even in real life. Yet you're worried about my health. Why?
