In a post upvoted over 15,000 times on Reddit, a mom of two, writing under the handle u/throwawaysonsdoor explained that the door was initially removed after she broke it down, having grown fearful that something had happened to her son. Her actions came after she heard a “really loud” crash coming from upstairs. When she knocked on her son’s door she got “no answer” and, fearing the worst, decided to take action....
The mom, known on TikTok as @edensmomma10_12, first shared the clip, found here, in early December. Since then, it’s been viewed 2.8 million times, amassing over 543,000 likes and 20,000 comments. The video centers on @edensmomma10_12’s difficult situation, stemming from her lack of sufficient paid parental leave—especially considering that her baby was born extremely premature. According to The Washington Post, the U.S. is the only wealthy nation in the world to not provide federally guaranteed paid parental leave....
The mom explained that her decision has caused a rift in her family, with her husband dubbing her “unreasonable.” In a post to popular forum Mumsnet, the mom explained they have a one-year-old son together, while he already had a seven-year-old son from a previous relationship. At the moment, the stepson splits his time 50/50 between his two homes, but it’s a schedule that is set to change thanks to his mom’s new job....
The mom, thought to be from the U.K, said her 30-year-old son treats her “extremely disrespectfully” and prevents her from carrying out her day-to-day activities because he takes over the kitchen, cooking, eating, drinking or doing laundry. She said his possessions are all over her home but if she moves them “he is rude and sarcastic” and if she asks him to move them he “berates” her and refuses to move them until he wants to....
The TikToker, known only as @treeeflower, uses a range of parenting techniques that run counter to the advice of most experts—and viewers have strong feelings about it. The clip begins with on-screen text that read: “Unconventional [and controversial] ways I’m raising my [ten] year old.” “No bedtimes. Or wakeup times,” wrote @treeeflower. “Sometimes that means going to sleep at 5am and waking up at 4pm.” “Has never been to school,” read the second parenting decision....
A year ago, the Chiefs were meant to take on the Los Angeles Rams in Mexico’s capital, only for the game to be moved to Los Angeles at a week’s notice because of concerns over the condition of the playing surface. The combination of heavy rain, sporting events and concerts held at the venue in the months preceding the game between Kansas City and the Rams forced the NFL to relocate the matchup....
Both these teams have suffered from multiple personalities this season. Quarterback Tom Brady and Buccaneers have manhandled multiple winning teams, including the Packers, Panthers, and Raiders, but they got outscored 20-19 by the offensively-inept Bears in Week 5 and were swept by the Saints by a combined score of 72-26. Meanwhile, Jared Goff and the Rams have taken care of business most of the season, coming within four points in Buffalo to a 5-0 start and beating the division-rival Seahawks a few weeks ago, yet they have faltered against the injury-ravaged 49ers and upstart Dolphins....

Capturing a moment in time—when sunset pinkens haystacks, or mist rolls across Westminster Bridge—was to become a Monet trademark. His public image, groomed by both the artist and admiring critics after he became famous in Paris in the 1860s, was that of the painter of the plein air, who dragged his canvases to open fields and empty beaches in order to capture immediate impressions. But as this new show reveals, that image was carefully cultivated....
But shop carefully. A gift Visa from one bank might have better terms than one bought at another, cautions Robert McKinley of Ram Research. Shop by going to favored retailers or at Visa.com and MasterCard.com, and check the fine print. Some cards carry activation or purchase fees, for example, and others expire if they’re not used in a year or two. Offer a little advice with the card, too: use it up....
That’s handy, but frightening, too. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. is warning bank customers to make sure their accounts are password protected and that no sensitive data get stored on the cell phone. Ask your bank if it offers any further safeguards. And consider the cost. Most banks offer the service free of charge, but some require specialized software or equipment, and you could still eat up a lot of cell-phone minutes “talking” to your checking account....
The work has been outlined in a new study published in the journal Nature Medicine. As part of the study, Portuguese researchers collected 15 monkeypox virus sequences in total—mostly from Portugal—and reconstructed their genetic data. Monkeypox is a rare disease believed to have its origin in animals. It is from the same family of viruses as smallpox. Usually monkeypox is localized within West and Central African countries but this year has seen the first multi-country outbreak, including cases without known links to West or Central Africa, with more than 3,500 cases reported as of Thursday, according to the U....

Klopp: Liverpool win will annoy Chelsea Arsene Wenger’s men can move into third in the table with a win at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday. While that would still leave them nine points behind leaders Chelsea, Monreal feels they have the squad to contend. “You can never be sure about the title,” he told the Times of India. “But I think we are a whole package with better options this season than ever before....
Two Colombians combined for the winning goal with Stefan Medina playing in Aviles Hurtado in the 57th minute and Rayados’ leading scorer finishing off the move to give his side the title. The match was rescheduled after a strong earthquake rocked central Mexico in September, forcing postponement of matches as emergency workers responded to the tragedy. That meant the timing of the match fell just before Christmas and awkwardly after both teams had competed in more prestigious tournaments....
The Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced Monday that the first round of payments will be sent out on July 15. The money will be sent on the 15th of each month through December, unless the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday. The schedule is to allow “families who receive the credit by direct deposit to plan their budgets around receipt of the benefit,” the Treasury Department said....
Juventus doesn’t want struggling Coman back The 31-year-old was carried off on a stretcher after half an hour of the 1-1 World Cup qualification draw between Italy and Spain on Thursday, with Milan announcing on Friday that Montolivo was due to go under the knife. Montolivo has now had his operation and will be sidelined for five to six months as a result. “Milan announce that Riccardo Montolivo underwent medical surgery Saturday morning for the reconstruction of his left knee anterior cruciate ligament,” a club statement reads....
Montoya only joined Sevilla from Rosario Central in January but struggled to make an impact in Spain. He made just four La Liga appearances in the second half of last season under Jorge Sampaoli, but the 24-year-old has featured even more infrequently this season. Montoya played 77 minutes against Girona in September and has not seen the field since in any competition. Cruz Azul finished sixth in the Liga MX Apertura this past fall before being eliminated by Club America in the Liguilla quarterfinals....
