Why your mother's narcissism could be ruining your chances for a healthy love life.
I was raised in a household that revolved around my mother. She was a narcissist, someone who, according to Wendy Behary, director of the Cognitive Therapy Center of New Jersey and author of Disarming the Narcissist: Surviving and Thriving with the Self-Absorbed is "often self-absorbed and preoccupied with a need to achieve the perfect image (recognition, status, or being envied) and have little or no capacity for listening, caring, or understanding the needs of others." My mom hasn't been formally diagnosed—few narcissists seek treatment or even recognize that they have a problem—but growing up, the signs … Read More
Jennifer Hudson's baby doesn't need all those pink clothes, so Mom may have a solution.
Jennifer Hudson and fiance David Otunga opted to wait for their baby's birth on Monday to know the gender. After baby David Daniel Otunga, Jr. was born, he arrived home to a nursery full of pink and blue!

Elisabeth Hasselbeck's new baby's name is raising eyebrows and offending some of the public.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck can't win. She gave birth Sunday in New York City to her third child, a boy weighing 7 lb., 7 oz. According to husband, Tim Hasselbeck, "Elisabeth and Isaiah are doing great."
This morning her anti-fans, apparently of left-wing orientation, are giving her a brutal time. They’re criticizing the name of her son, Isaiah Timothy, saying not only is it a target for schoolyard teasing; it's also a strong Christian reference. Isaiah is a Catholic saint and one of the best known prophets in the Bible's Old Testament. Scholars say he predicted the coming of Jesus … Read More

How my sixth grader called me out on using sex toys.
I store my secret and satisfying lover in the hidden compartment of an ottoman in my bathroom. Towels are piled high over it, and inside I store all my overflow of beauty and hair products. Deep within that pile is a compartment I stash my "toys." For the past month, I've been finding my vibrator with the batteries dead and always left in the "on" position. I like to conserve energy, so I know I NEVER would have wasted a AA battery in a recession with an amateur move like that. I didn't have the guts to confront my husband, … Read More
Military husbands are staying home with the kids while the moms are off fighting.
When you picture a military couple, one going off to fight a war, and the other taking on the role of the stay-at-home parent, society typically envisions the man off in battle and the woman home with the children. But with nearly 20 percent of the Air Force consisting of women, men are quickly learning the challenges of being the military spouse, home with the kids.
In the military, dads aren't forced to take care of their children on their own from just 9 to 5 but rather for months at a time while their wives are away on … Read More
Getting back in the game isn't so hard to do.
I recently got a call from a friend who married right out of college, divorced 10 years after that, and now shares custody of her child with her ex.
The call went something like this: "Can you remind me what a dating site is? You've told me about it, but it never mattered before. How do I do this?"
For many divorced women, online dating was not an option before they were married and in the dating pool. And, let's face it— for some, the Internet wasn't even born when they recited their vows. Read: Online Dating Coaches … Read More
