It is really, really hard. He said the family had 'cried and begged for help' in meetings at home. 'Does our family unit have to break down? Does it have to get to a point where we no longer sustain this and then they'll step in and give you support? Because right now that's where we're at. We don't have any alternatives.

When she was 16, Bethan James told her YouTube channel that by 2026 she hoped to have a partner, an enjoyable job and maybe even children.

Car seat misuse rates are pretty high right now. According to data from the National Digital Car Seat Check Form (NDCF), 74% of the almost 60,000 car seats that child passenger safety technicians (CPSTs) checked in 2025 were not being used as the manufacturer intended. The top culprits? Misused seat belts, harnesses and tethers.

It arose out of safety concerns in 2022 in relation to the treatment of a number of patients with Spina Bifida who had spinal surgery at CHI at Temple Street.

Each year, 20,000 children and adolescents across the U.S. lose a parent to gun violence, while an estimated two to three times more have a parent who has been injured due to a firearm.

In a matter of seconds, it exploded, causing burns to his face. "He was crying and just yelling, 'It burns, it burns,'" said Whitney Grubb, Caleb Chabolla's mother. Grubb says her son's Needoh Cube had burst. Inside the popular sensory toy, a thick, gel-like substance became hot because of the microwave and stuck to his face. "The right side of his face was kind of melting off, basically," Grubb said.
