    Opinion: The ‘famous last words’ I’d like to hear now (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Gloria Steinem didn’t filter her opinions. The famed feminist who said “a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle” was, at the very least, honest. Which is why it’s odd she chose to appear on the Netflix series “Famous Last Words,” which records interviews with celebrities that get released after their deaths. In her interview, Steinem said things like she wants to “perpetuate what we hope is a global democracy” and that “the most important thing we can do for each other

    Opinion: A 10-year-old living in a tent was only part of the story. The other part is how we respond to addiction (opens the original)

    It’s supposed to be a heartwarming story. The tale of a 10-year-old boy who went from living in a homeless encampment to attending his first day of fifth grade was featured on the “Today” show. The boy, who was at first standoffish and even invoked his “Fifth Amendment right” not to speak to anyone when adults approached, now has shelter, clothing and a new backpack, and he looks forward to going to school. This is all thanks to the work of a nonprofit organization called The More We L

    Opinion: The college students who need to ‘self-soothe’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When I dropped my son off at college for the first time last month, I was not sure whether to stay for the presentation to parents. But since the students were off getting their own welcome lecture, I figured why not. Things began on an optimistic note about the adventure ahead but then quickly descended into worst-case scenarios. “Many of your kids will call wanting to come home,” one dean warned us. Really? I looked around the auditorium wondering how many of our 18-year-olds were going to

    Opinion: Karyann Parkinson deserved the benefit of the doubt. But so did the people who reported her (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Karyann Parkinson is appealing a Virginia court’s decision to place her on a child-abuse registry after she let her 5-year-old son walk alone near a pond in their gated community. Parkinson’s conviction, which also included a six-month suspended jail sentence, has provoked nationwide outrage. The mother of five told Fox News, “We need to stop parenting from a place of fear and a place, you know, of obsessing over the unknown or some boogeyman who’s going to jump out from behind a bush.â€

    Opinion: Lindsay Clancy’s case isn’t as rare as we’d like to think (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Why has the trial of Lindsay Clancy garnered so much attention? It would be comforting to say that it is because her crimes are so heinous and rare. But the truth is they are not. At the Lives Cut Short database, a joint project of the American Enterprise Institute and the University of North Carolina, we have collected almost 5,000 records of child maltreatment fatalities between 2022 and 2026. These are only a fraction of the total deaths from neglect and abuse that occurred during that time p
