If you have kids… well, it’s only forever. Don’t worry. I’m sure all of those hugs you don’t get are worth it.

No no, I’m kidding of course. You get a TON of hugs. How much are you paying per hug? $10,000? Have you ever done the math.

Nevermind! Let’s go!

A Dad Asked the Internet for Fun Facts to Share with His Four-Year-Old Daughter

If you have young kids, then you know that their thirst for knowledge is basically unquenchable. They ask “why” countless times a day and want to know how everything works (and why) and ask questions from dawn until dusk…

It’s kind of exhausting.

This dad found that his four-year-old daughter was no different from anyone else’s, and every night at bedtime, she asked for a new and interesting fact.

He quickly ran out of ideas on his own and turned to Reddit, who totally delivered.

What mind-blowing (but simple) facts would satisfy a 4-year old daughter’s daily request for 1 fact before bedtime? from AskReddit

If you’re a fan of all sorts of facts, you’re going to love these 15 as much as his daughter probably did!

15. One more reason to be jealous of otters.

14. Mind blown.

13. I definitely needed to know this.

12. Still waiting for its first birthday.

11. New bucket list item.

10. Dogs are amazing.

9. So much fun.

8. I have actually always wondered this.

7. Bend the bee’s knee.

6. I’m jealous of the pink milk.

5. Crazy to think about, right?

4. So we couldn’t tell if they shaved?

3. Those crazy cows.

2. That actually explains a lot.

1. DIY custard.

Here’s to knowledge!

Studies Show That Children Who Grow up Around Their Grandparents Are Happier and Less Likely to Be Depressed

I’ve always been jealous of people who grew up close to their grandparents and so were able to enjoy that bond. My family moved around so much when I was growing up that my grandparents lived far away, and I was only able to meet them a few times while they were still alive.

Beyond the love, care, and guidance that grandparents give to their grandkids, research shows that this special relationship is even more beneficial than we thought.

A 2016 study shows that children who have close emotional ties with their grandparents have a reduced risk of becoming depressed. The study was conducted by researchers from Boston College who analyzed data collected over a 19-year period.

More good news came out of the study as well. Grandparents also benefit from a close relationship with their grandkids, and the older folks are less likely to show depressive symptoms as well.

Another study, out of the University of Oxford, found that kids who had close relationships with their grandparents coped better with difficult and traumatic life events, such as bullying or going through a divorce. This research also showed that kids with a higher level of involvement from grandparents in their lives had fewer behavioral and emotional problems and that they dealt with life changes in a healthy way.

Kimberly Agresta, of the Agresta Psychotherapy Group, said:

“If parents regularly involve grandparents in their child’s life early on, a child can develop real emotional closeness to the grandparents and begin to see the grandparent as a source of strong social support. So a child will feel that they have other adults, aside from their parents, who love and care about them in the same way, and this adds to their sense of stability and security.”

If you grew up around your grandparents, consider yourself a lucky person.

A Boy Befriends a Second-Grader with Autism Who Was Having a Rough First Day at School

We see so many news and social media stories about how kids are cruel and mean and they have no respect these days. Well, I think this wholesome story might refresh you perspective on that way of thinking.

The first day of school is rough for anyone, and that was definitely the case for a second-grader in Wichita, Kansas, named Connor Crites. The young boy is autistic, and, as happens with people on the spectrum, he became overwhelmed with the back-to-school routine and started crying.

That’s when a fellow second-grader named Christian Moore stepped in. He saw Crites crying, so he went over to hold Crites’ hand and console the boy. Moore’s mother was nearby, and she snapped a photo of the encounter that she shared the story of Facebook, where it quickly went viral.

I’m so proud of my son, he seen a kid balled up into a corner crying, so he went to console him, grabbed his hand and…

Moore’s caption on her photo read “I’m so proud of my son, he seen a kid balled up into a corner crying, so he went to console him, grabbed his hand and walked him inside of the school! It is an honor to raise such a loving, compassionate child! He’s a kid with a Big heart, the first day of school started off right.”

Connor Crites’ mother April responded to the heartfelt gesture. She said, “That’s all I can ask for, is someone to be open to him like that. I’m so happy that something so positive is coming from all this, that my son got a friend, hopefully a friend for life.” April also explained that her son was nonverbal until he was 5 years old.

Connor himself said about the encounter, “He was kind to me. I was in the first day of school and I started crying. Then he helped me and I was happy.”

People on Facebook responded to the moving post.

Snow White Soothed a Boy with Autism at Disney World

Brody Bergner do very well around strangers, but he was looking forward to visiting Disney World.

Lauren (his mom) talked to Brody for months about what her 6 year old with autism could expect when he got there. But, knowing how sensitive her son is to crowded and noisy places, she knew she could expect at least a couple of meltdowns.

So, while waiting to meet Snow White toward the end of a full day of park hopping, Lauren could sense her tired and overstimulated boy was heading for a breakdown.

She told Today, “Brody was overheated, sweating and overwhelmed by everything. He just started crying.”

Then something happened that changed everything.

I am so emotional with these pictures !! Brody was having a meltdown . It was our turn to take pictures with her and he…

Posted by Lauren Bergner on Sunday, August 25, 2019

Snow White could see immediately that Brody was non-verbal and had special needs.

In her post, Lauren writes,

“She kissed, hugged and cuddled him. She then took him for a walk away from the crowd! She was amazing. She held his hand , danced with him , took him over to a bench and sat with him . She went above and beyond !! She took so much time with him .She was a pure angel ! She was magical and my family is forever thankful and touched !”

Lauren’s Facebook post, with pictures of Brody and Show White, was shared over 100,000 times.

She and her husband, Bill, were awed at how quickly Brody connected with the Disney princess.

Posted by Lauren Bergner on Sunday, August 25, 2019

Fearing, at one point, that the crowd would grow impatient with their family for holding up their Snow White encounters, Lauren turned around only to see everyone break into applause.

“It was this magical moment that we will never, ever forget,” she said.

And, that’s how, on a sweltering, hot day in the middle of Florida, a small boy met his princess.

A Classroom of Kids’ Names Went Viral Because They’re…Ridiculous

I had a conversation about this recently with a friend of mine. We talked about how out of control parents are getting these days with the names of their kids. It seems like all you have to do is slap a “lyn” or a “lin” on the end of anything, really, and you’re good to go.

Nowhere is the “ridiculous kids names” phenomenon more prevalent than in this classroom photo shared on Twitter that went viral in a hurry.

But they are real…all too real.

And people on Twitter got pretty fired up about “Elexia,” “Zerachiel,” “Eilee,” “Reagyn,” and “Jagger”, among others.

One tweeter even noticed that “Trapper,” “Hunter,” and “Fisher” are all members of the same classroom.

This story reminded one Twitter user of the “Viral Chalkboard Mom” who blew up when her baby name options seemed a little bit out of control.

And, of course, some smart ass had to throw this into the conversation.

It’s gonna get worse before it gets better people…

Like I said, people are free to name their children anything they want to, and I mean anything.

But, you never know if the world is gonna take notice and poke a little fun at you, so choose wisely!

Here Are Some Funny ‘First Day of School’ Photos to Get You Ready for the School Year

If you’ve looked at social media over the past couple weeks, even for a second, there’s no doubt you’ve seen an endless stream of “back to school” photos from all your friends who have kids.

And, hey, they’re pretty adorable!

By now, it’s a time-honored tradition to post a pic of “Lucy’s First Day of Second Grade” or “Timmy’s First Day of Kindergarten.”

But there’s a flipside to all of this joy…it’s what the kids look (and feel) like after that big first day of school. And it is pure exhaustion and trauma. Take a look for yourself:

1. To Hell and back

First day back at school took its toll on this little girl from CasualUK

2. Very bleak

Before and after the first day of school. The future suddenly looks bleak. from funny

3. Frazzled
