This is Why Eva Mendes And Ryan Gosling Don’t Post Pictures Of Their Kids On Social Media

How much to share of your kids on social media is one of those big discussions that parents have these days that didn’t exist ten years ago.

Now, though, there are all kinds of ethical questions about things like privacy and identity theft and the like, but still, few parents are going with the same zero-tolerance policy as Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes.

The couple has been together for nine years, but there are very few images of the two together – and even fewer instances of them talking about each other, their relationship, or their two daughters (5-year-old Esmerelda and 3-year-old Amada) in interviews or online.

They never post photos of their personal lives online, and when asked about why she never posts pictures of her “immediate family” on Instagram, Eva took a few minutes to graciously offer a reply.

“I have always had a clear boundary when it comes to my man and my kids. I’ll talk about them of course, with limits, but I won’t post pictures of our daily life.”

Photo Credit: Instagram

The reason? Simple consent, which has become such a big talking point in recent months.

“Since my children are still so little and don’t understand what posting their image really means, I don’t have their consent. And I won’t post their image until they’re old enough to give me consent.”

The actress could have gotten backlash if people had thought her stance was in some way judging their own decision to post whatever they wanted about their own children, but most have been supportive.

“As far as Ryan and I, it just works for us this way. To stay private.”

A hard thing to do these days for anyone, nevermind two people who are very recognizable and loved by so many.

Her statement should ring true for all of us, though – we need to make the decisions we feel like our best for our family, best for our children and their futures, and feel comfortable with any explanation we’re going to have to offer them when they’re older.

Easier said than done, but there’s no wrong answer.

This is a brave new world, and we’re all choosing our paths.

These Kids Are Adorably Clueless

There has to be an age when being clueless becomes less adorable and more what-the-f*ck, right?

I’m not sure exactly what that threshold is, but I am sure that these 12 kids are still in the safe zone. Because even though they know absolutely nothing, they’re still as cute as heck.

I forgive them.

12. He had a different fashion statement in mind, clearly.

It was probably one that involved a lot less clothing, if he’s like my kid.

11. Those are definitely legs.

But let’s be honest, that face was nothing to write home about.

10. Well, he got one thing right.

May he maintain his passion, but in a more useful manner.

Aah the young mind of a young child from KidsAreFuckingStupid

9. Toddlers do not care about your things.

They have flushed expensive things down the toilet and they will do it again.

While the world is fighting over TP, my toddler is giving ours a bath. from KidsAreFuckingStupid

8. That kid is going to rule the world.

And also always win at games.

Found while walking dog from KidsAreFuckingStupid

7. Now is the time to confess, I suppose.

That was the only option then, I suppose.

6. That makes me laugh, but it is really dumb.

I’m going to have to remember that for a book one day.

Photo Credit: Me.Me

5. I want an updated picture of them doing the same thing.

Also, someone call CPS for adults.

4. 100% applaud her letting him do it.

And somehow managing to not explain herself at every house.

3. I’m pretty sure this is how comedians are born.

The good ones, anyway.

2. This definitely qualifies as adorably clueless.

Best friends never outgrow each other.

1. That kid is not going to be the class rebel.

But he is going to be a responsible pet owner, so there’s that.

https://the-boy-in-the-tree.tumblr.com/post/166842585966/got-stars-in-your-eyes-got-stars-in-your-eyes

This is just the kind of content I need in my life right now.

Which was your favorite kid?

If they were yours would you laugh or disown them? Both? Tell us in the comments!

Kids That Clearly Know Nothing…But They’re Still Cute

Kids aren’t really supposed to know anything, since they haven’t been alive that long and everything. That’s why it’s okay to laugh at them when they do and say silly things.

Once you’re an adult, people frown upon being clueless, as it’s no longer cute.

Nothing you do is cute anymore, okay!

But these 11 kids are still allowed, so please enjoy…

11. Oh, sweet summer child.

They’re looking for you, son. Don’t know why.

Photo Credit: Twitter

10. When you think of it that way…

Brains really are pretty amazing.

Photo Credit: Tumblr

9. I think you should be glad you coaxed it out of him before he deployed it as a weapon.

Luckily for him, you never really run out.

He’ll never have get it back from KidsAreFuckingStupid

8. He has not yet learned that coffee is sacred.

May that cup rest in peace.

7. Anything to do with dogs is very exciting, understand.

I, too, get thrilled to see dogs passing by on the street.

6. And maybe I shouldn’t be laughing, but I am.

You have to amuse yourself in this parenting gig when and where you can.

5. Wow. I don’t think my son would give up his iPad for a cookie.

You never know, though. It would probably depend on whether there was ice cream involved.

It wasn’t even double stuffed smh from KidsAreFuckingStupid

4. It’s hard being a toddler, you know.

So many feelings, so few words.

3. That cornbread now knows how I feel when I try to go to the bathroom.

It’s hard being loved so much. Like cornbread.

2. I mean that’s sort of just impressive.

Unless you’re the one who paid for said cello. Then it’s annoying.

1. All kids apparently go through a phase when they NEED TO SEE THEIR POOP.

Do you always check on your poop before you flush? DO YOU EVEN CARE?

I needed this laugh today and the reminder that my littles aren’t the only idiots on the block.

What’s the dumbest thing your kid has done that made you laugh?

15 Places Where Kids Can Eat For Free

You never realize how true the phrase “every little bit helps” is until you have children – and spending $4 for a plate of food your child is probably going to turn their nose up at before tossing it on the floor, well. It’s not the best part of being a parent.

We do still enjoy not having to cook once in a while, and going out to eat also means we don’t have to clean. If you’re having a day (or week) when those two things sound really good, here are 15 restaurants where kids eat free.

15. Chili’s

If you’re a rewards member, you’ll get a free kid’s meal as long as you spend at least $5 every 60 days.

14. Hooters

Kid’s meals are always free, but make sure to check with your location to verify.

That is… if this is somewhere you don’t mind taking your kids.

13. Marie Calendar’s Restaurant and Bakery

On Saturdays, kids under 12 eat free with the purchase of an adult entree.

12. Qdoba

If you order an adult entree on Wednesday or Sunday, you’ll get a free kid’s meal.

11. Red Robin

You’ll want to check with your nearest location, but many offer “kids eat free” deals on different nights of the week, and often discounted meals at other times.

10. Applebee’s

The day of the week and hours could change based on where you live, so check ahead, but their menu is full of kid-approved classics that will hit the mark.

9. Denny’s

Kids eat free when adults order an entree, but it is limited to two free meals per adult.

8. IKEA

The Swedish home store offers free baby food with every entree purchased, and certain locations offer free bigger kid’s meals on special days of the week.

7. Margarita’s Mexican Restaurant

This New England-based chain offers free kid’s meals on Saturdays and Sundays.

6. Ruby Tuesday

Every Tuesday after 5, kids eat free with the purchase of an adult entree.

5. Bob Evans

Head here on Tuesdays after 4 p.m., when your kid under 12 eats for free as long as you order an adult entree.

4. Dickey’s BBQ Pit

On Sundays, kids under 12 eat free with any party that spends at least $10.

3. Johnny Rockets

This old fashioned diner offers free kids meals on Tuesdays from 4-8pm with the purchase of an adult meal and a drink.

2. Moe’s

Kids eat free on Tuesdays at participating locations, and they include a drink and a cookie!

1. Uno’s

Tuesdays are free kid’s meals day here, too, so hopefully your kid is more adventurous than mine (even when it comes to pizza).

I’m definitely keeping this list in my back pocket! My kids are fairly good at eating out, but having an iPhone to hand them after they’ve finished eating (in 5 minutes) and you haven’t is a lifesaver.

What’s your go-to plan for eating out with kids? Tell us about it in the comments!

A Collection of the Best 1990s Memes

Growing up in the 1990s didn’t make us special. I’m not mad at these “damn kids today” because they don’t know what dial-up is. I’m thrilled for them. It was horrible. Nobody deserves that.

Nevertheless, it hits some sweet, sweet spot in the brain to let memes transport us back to a time in our history that seems to have been curated entirely by that orange Nickelodeon blob guy.

I wonder what he’s up to. I hope he’s found work. Let’s reminisce with some 90’s memes in his honor.

15. I didn’t even have cable, so even this felt like luxury

14. Nobody ever bought these, they just sort of appeared

13. Seeing this meme is how I learned there’s a Rugrats reboot coming

12. The higher the hair the closer to God

11. This was broken 10 minutes in

10. Back when things were “on” at a “certain time”

9. Give your little brother the bad controller

8. I had two sisters and these were scattered everywhere

7. My heart literally just skipped a beat

6. Then DVDs came along and you’d end up returning them because “they had the black bars”

5. I mean, the world was slightly less on fire

4. It’s impossible to explain now why we thought these would be valuable

3. I STILL DON’T KNOW

2. Bottom right still gives me anxiety

1. Who could forget “tent pants”

Well, realizing how long ago all of this happened makes me think I should probably go join AARP.

While I’m gone, tell me in the comments what your favorite distinctly 90’s thing was.

A Mom’s Video About her Bullied Son Went Viral. The Internet Shows Their Support and Will Send Him To Disneyland.

Social media gets a bad rap sometimes, but sometimes it can help create some truly life-changing moments.

Take the story of young Quaden Bayles, for example. The 9-year-old boy was born with a form of Dwarfism called Achondroplasia and his mother, Yarraka Bayles, recently shared a distressing video of her unconsolable son reacting to being bullied at his school in Australia.  In it, the young boy talks about killing himself because he is so upset.

This is the impacts of bullying! I seriously don’t know what else to do! ?

Posted by Yarraka Bayles on Tuesday, February 18, 2020

The video went viral in a massive way and has touched people around the globe.

Quaden said about his story,

“The parents should make them be nicer to kids with disabilities.

If you get bullied stand up for yourself and don’t listen to what they say.”

His mother wrote in a statement,

“Quaden Bayles’ family would like to take this time firstly to thank everyone for the overwhelming show of love and support from so many people from all around the world.”

A comedian with Dwarfism named Brad Williams was so touched by the video that he set up a GoFundMe page to raise $10,000 to send Quaden to Disneyland.

As of today, he’s raised almost $275,000!

The money that isn’t spent on flying Quaden and his mother to the U.S. will be donated to anti-bullying and anti-abuse charities.

A bunch of other celebrities have stepped up to support Quaden as well on social media, including one of Australia’s most famous sons, Mr. Hugh Jackman.

Actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan of ‘The Walking Dead’ also showed his support.

Boston Celtics player Enes Kanter tweeted his love too!

And the National Rugby League Indigenous All Stars asked Quaden to lead them out onto the field for their match this weekend.

 

Don’t you love it when social media is used for good?

Keep your head up Quaden, and don’t ever let anyone out there make you feel like you don’t deserve the absolute best in life!

And kudos to all the celebrities (especially Brad Williams) who brought attention to this important story. Good work all around, humans!
