Parenting can be full of challenges. From explaining why in the world the sky is blue, to embarrassing talks about the birds and the bees. Yet parenting can be full of fun as well. For instance, when you have a frank and serious discussion with your kid about swearing, cursing, and insulting gestures. That’s the exact conversation that actress Kristen Bell’s daughter and her husband Dax Shepard had. And Kristen could barely contain her laughter and keep a straight face during the entire discussion about the middle finger and the F-word....

People around the world are suspicious about the information that reaches them . For example, the 32% of Americans who say they trust the mass media “a great deal” or “a fair amount” to cover the news fully and accurately ties Gallup’s lowest historical reading, previously recorded in 2016. Another 29% of American adults have “not very much” trust, while a record-high 39% register “none at all.” The latest figure is the highest in Gallup’s five-decade history of tracking these metrics by one percentage point and 12 points higher than the 2016 number, which came amid sharp criticism of the media from then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, making the current assessment the grimmest we’ve seen....

Parenting comes with plenty of unique challenges, but it can become even more difficult when you suddenly find yourself raising children with your ex. Custody arrangements can be a sensitive topic, and moms and dads can’t always agree on what exactly is best for their kids. But one thing that all children definitely need is clean, comfortable clothing. So after noticing the sorry state that his kids’ clothes were in, one dad decided that it was time to involve child protective services....

When your teenager finally finds a hobby they love, it’s supposed to be a moment of pure parental relief. You celebrate the fact that they’re not just doomscrolling in their room, shaving their head, or smoking something weird under a bridge. But what happens when that passion drives you, for some inexplicable reason, completely up the wall? And we aren’t talking about them playing the saxophone badly. One mom couldn’t quite pinpoint why her daughter’s innocent hobby drove her nuts, but she knew she had to put an end to it....

In response to: 14 Powerful Portraits of Men Expressing Their Feelings Against Mandatory Military Service in Lithuania Dear Lithuanian Friends, Your 14 powerful portraits of men expressing their feelings towards conscription service proved to be really powerful, but perhaps not in a way you envisioned. We are both small, freedom-loving nations living in a dangerous neighborhood.

Infertility is a devastating diagnosis that affects 15 in 100 couples. The road to treatment is stressful, expensive, time-consuming, and not always successful, which can create financial difficulties and put strain on relationships with partners, family, and friends. This teen has seen how his parents struggled with secondary infertility for his entire life. Due to them focusing their attention and finances on treatments, he felt like he wasn’t on their minds anymore....

Most people stay away from places that they feel are the slightest bit unsettling, unnerving, or creepy . It makes complete sense—if your gut is telling you that some sort of danger might be lurking in there, it’s better to listen to it and be safe than sorry. However, those who like spooky experiences seek out such locations on purpose, and if they’re lucky enough, they get to live to tell the stories (muahaha)....

Dying might suck, but growing old isn’t all that much easier. It’s all of those sudden realizations that time keeps on moving and your body is ever so slowly fading into nothingness. Each time it hits hard. And folks on Reddit have been discussing those very instances of life letting them know that their expiration date is approaching. Without telling them when it actually is, of course. Watching the “lil” rappers (lil pump, lil insert name here) score millions of likes on YouTube for some of the most awful music that has ever been unleashed on the world....

Most of us have a general idea of what certain jobs look like—from what we see in movies, on social media, or just passing by. But the truth? A lot of the wildest, weirdest, or most surprising parts of the job happen behind the scenes, far away from public view. And those are the stories that deserve the spotlight. So, I asked the Bored Panda community to pull back the curtain and share the things about their jobs that outsiders rarely see or understand....

Standing at the altar , we solemnly swear to love and protect the person who will be next to us, in joy and sorrow, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health… sometimes, alas, forgetting these words already on the second day after the wedding. Forgetting to such an extent that sincere commitment and protection of your spouse sometimes seems to us something really surprising....

Skateboarding culture in California in the 1970s has left an indelible mark on the sport and on America’s cultural identity, and photographer Hugh Holland perfectly captured the spirit of this golden age in his beautiful street photography album – Locals Only: California Skateboarding 1975-1978. Curiously enough, the drought that hit California in the 1970s played a huge part in skateboarding history. Swimming pools and drainage ditches lay empty and dry, allowing kids to carve them up with their skateboards, some of which were simply coarse wooden boards with wheels – a far cry from today’s laminated creations....

Daycare is the best option for busy parents who aren’t able to supervise their own kids throughout the day but want them to be looked after well. This might only end up being a problem if the child carers and parents disagree about something fundamental and aren’t able to resolve it. This is exactly what happened when one dad found out that the teacher at his son’s daycare was showing the children ‘Veggie Tales’ videos....

Among the many undoubtedly wise pieces of advice regarding family life, there is one that in relationships that have clearly exhausted themselves, you should find the strength to let go and move forward. Well, the father of the author of our story today definitely overdid it – he began looking for a new relationship without ending the current one. What makes him look even uglier here is that the man had three kids, and his wife, while he was looking for love on the side, was in hospice with cancer....

Among the many cynical but often damn truthful pieces of advice that I’ve ever heard or read, there was this: “every initiative is punishable.” And indeed, as soon as one of us takes an initiative in any matter, it instantly becomes our “inalienable duty” in the eyes of others. Are you tech savvy? They will call and write to you day and night with persistent demands to fix their desktop. Once you babysat at someone’s home and got along with the kids – be prepared that you will be perceived as a regular babysitter and they will take offense to any refusal....

Losing a person close to you is never a fun thing, especially when it’s too early for them to go. Moments like these are the hardest, and they’re exactly when we need all of the support that we can get. However, some people would rather take care of their own ego first than be there for the ones in need. For example, one Redditor shared how, when her mom was sick with cancer, her dad was never around....

While so many people are waiting for the winter to come for all of the festivities that happen during this season, let’s not forget the worst part of it — the cold weather. With the plummeting temperatures, everyone is starting to feel the chill and so are their dogs. It’s true that our smallest four-legged companions may not always be prepared for the cold, so it’s our duty to help them....

Burls Art has a knack for making you look at everyday “junk” and think, “Wait… could that be a guitar?” The builder and YouTuber has already turned some seriously unexpected materials into fully playable instruments, like the dozens of unique custom guitars we’ve featured on Bored Panda before, or the colorful pencil guitar, which we also have a full article on. But now, he’s back with a fresh twist on one of his wildest ideas yet: a guitar made from old newspapers....

While most of us are fascinated with anything furry – bunnies, hamsters, cats, and doggos, of course, some of them are “doing us a fascinate” way bigger than others. Sure, everything they do is immensely cute: beg for pets by rolling over and putting their belly up, run around in all crazy manners, explore every corner of the house if it was something new every time they see it or simply wag their tail....
