An Orono mother whose baby allegedly was severely injured by her ex-boyfriend claims in a federal lawsuit that the boy's medical providers failed to tell her about signs of abuse, and didn't report suspected abuse to Maine authorities as required by law.

This is the moment a starving baby was rescued from the filthy cage where he was made to live while surrounded by a boa constrictor and 56 dogs. The youngster, believed to be about 18 months old, was saved from the makeshift prison in Henry County, Tennessee, on Thursday. Deputies from Henry County Sheriff's Office discovered the boy living in the four feet by four feet cage, surrounded by a menagerie of animals including eight snakes, one of which was a 10 foot long and one foot wide boa constrictor that could easily have crushed the youngster to death. The boy is believed to have spent most of his time in there, with investigators now trying to work out when the child was first confined to the cramped cage. Henry County Sheriff Monte Belew said: 'It was heartbreaking to see the conditions this child was living in. 'There was nothing for that baby in the entire house outside of the cage he was in. All his toys were in there with him. 'There were no ...

HORRIFYING new video shows the moment an Ikea bookcase toppled over and crushed two toddler twins. A baby camera in Nicole Oka's home in California captured what happened to the two-year-olds on June 3. The video shows the twins climbing on the bookcase in their bedroom after being put to bed. Soon, the bookcase can be seen crashing down on them — despite Oka believing the dresser was screwed into the wall. The kids are heard screaming and soon, the children's parents rush in to get them. Oka told USA Today: "I remember being so afraid of this happening. It felt like a very real thing that could happen to me." "My babies could have died," the mother said. "I did everything right. I did everything I should have." Oka told Metro what happened was "traumatic" and said she ran to the children as soon as what saw the incident on the baby camera. The mother and her husband, Dan, bought the bookcase in 2017 and said they understo...

A controversial video of a baby learning how to swim has ignited debate on TikTok, with some referring to the method employed as "traumatic." The short clip, which was shared by mom Krysta Meyer on June 21 and has since been viewed over 51 million times, shows her young son Oliver being thrown into a pool by a swimming instructor, who then jumps in after the baby but does not intervene as he sinks. Oliver quickly rights himself and floats to the surface of the pool on his back, and is met by encouragement from his instructor and Meyer, who was standing by to watch and record the lesson. "Oliver amazes me every week!" the proud mom wrote on TikTok. "I can't believe he is barely 2 months in and is catching on so fast. He is a little fish." TikTok users were divided over the technique being taught in the video, which is often referred to as "self-rescue" swimming, where children as young as six months old are thrown into pools and allowed to rig...

Palmdale Baby Rescue A Palmdale Sheriff's Station deputy took swift action at a park recently, when he encountered a desperate mother and her son, who was in physical distress. On Sunday, May 31, 2020, security camera footage captured the intense moment when two women ran frantically across a supermarket parking lot in the 3000 block of Rancho Vista Boulevard; one of them carried a limp, 11-month-old boy and stopped to administer back blows upon him. Moments earlier, the women were participating in a protest at the park, when the baby got sick, stopped breathing and lost consciousness. They ran toward deputies who were across the street, monitoring the protest, to seek assistance. Deputy Cameron Kinsey spotted the women coming his way, ran toward them, and met them in the parking lot. An anxious mother handed her son to the deputy, who immediately recognized something was gravely wrong. Deputy Kinsey assessed the child, administered a mouth sweep with his finger and dislodged vomit...

While things are slowly beginning to open back up in California, everyone is evaluating risk their own way. While some are happily dining out already, others, like my family, aren't ready to come out of quarantine just yet.  The past few months have been hard. And boring. So, so boring. It's pretty difficult to keep a 1-year-old and a 2-year-old sane after spending 90+ days out of parks and playgroups, cooped up at home. To say I've been branching out in my desperation to keep them occupied and learning is an understatement.   When Sun Basket first reached out to me, asking if I would be interested in testing them out, I did what I usually do and passed it on to my editor. At the time I was up to my eyeballs in stress, and I couldn't imagine having the time to cook while also trying to wrangle my tiny human beasts and work remotely. I had attempted other meal kit delivery services before, and while I enjoyed the food in all of them, I am not big on having to cook. I...

Last night, while my 3-year-old played in the living room and my husband read to the baby, I found myself collapsed on the kitchen floor, head in hands, tears rolling down my face. I did not want to face my child. I did not feel I could handle it. Here I was, a child psychologist, and yet again the prospect of a simple bedtime routine—with its promise of an accompanying emotional meltdown for both her and me—completely overwhelmed me.  Tantrums can feel like a supersonic attack.

One of the hotspots for kids clutter in your home, aside from the playroom or wherever their toys are, is their closet. With an ever-growing child and the need to constantly purchase new clothing for them, it gets cramped right before your eyes, making it impossible to find something that actually fits them. However, there are some smart tricks to fit more in neatly so you can view everything in sight without having to peel back a bunch of layers. It all starts with using appropriate baby and kids clothes hangers so everything stays in place. First of all, using hangers made for clothing their size is going to ensure that nothing falls off. We've all been there when we've been searching for an item to later find it sitting on the back of the closet floor. Whether you choose plastic or velvet (which tends to be better at keeping things in place since it doesn't slip), there are plenty of options to choose from to enhance their closet organizing experience. Below, we...

A man in Visalia, California, was arrested Tuesday (June 9) in connection with the abuse of a 1-year-old child that left the baby "clinically" dead. The man was taken into custody days after the toddler's mother was arrested in connection with child abuse.

(CNN) – Children love to see images of themselves in the books that are read to them and in the books they read. While representation has rarely been a problem for white families with young kids, it hasn't always been so easy for parents of black, Latino, Asian and other nonwhite children to find their skin colors and cultures represented in the pages of children's books. As our Sesame Street friends join CNN on Saturday at 10 a.m. to talk to kids and their parents about racism, the nationwide protests and embracing diversity, we reached out to Jambo Books co-founder Mijha Godfrey to ask her for recommendations for smart and fun books featuring black characters for the 4 and under set. Godfrey said that children pick up their values from their families and the stories that are read to them. Her company, which launched in May 2018, believes that it's important for children to read stories about children that look like them and children who do not look like them. Only one of ...
