My daughter, age 5, is a member. Chances are, so is a youngster you know. In fact, every child on Earth born after June 23, 1988, belongs to what I call Generation Hot. These 2 billion young people will spend the rest of their lives coping with the hottest, most volatile climate that civilization has ever known. Recently, I went to Capitol Hill with members of Generation Hot (and the Sierra Club, our country's largest grass-roots environmental organization) to confront the politicians whose denials and delay have done so much to land Generation Hot in this predicament. We wanted to know why my daughter and the other 2 billion members of Generation Hot have to suffer because Republicans in Congress refuse to accept what virtually every major scientific organization in the worl...
All women gain weight during pregnancy, but getting back into pre- shape after the child is born can be a dreaded process. There are drastic measures that can be taken, including the recent plastic surgery trend known as the Mommy Makeover, which usually includes a breast-lift, tummy tuck and body-sculpting liposuction.
Three children living in El Salvador are entitled to worker's compensation benefits as a result of their father's death in a 1999 industrial accident in Laurel, the Court of Special Appeals has held. The court affirmed last year's judgment of the Prince George's County Circuit Court that the children - one of whom was not yet born at the time of the accident - were wholly dependent upon their father, Elvis Rudis Hernandez, for support.
Parents who were told that the child they were adopting had no serious medical problems can sue the hospital where the child was born after they later learned the child had significant neurological problems, the has ruled. The parents told hospital employees that they would only adopt the child if there were no "signs of significant health issues" and requested medical records of both mother and child. A social worker employed by the hospital whose job included discussing children's birth abnormalities with prospective adoptive parents said the child was healthy and without any abnormalities.
Many of the best players in the U.S. Women's Open are young enough to be Juli Inkster's children. That isn't a corny punchline - Inkster's oldest child, daughter Hayley, was born in 1990, just one year after LPGA stars like Yani Tseng and Michelle Wie. Inkster, at 51, isn't the oldest golfer in the U.S. Women's Open field. That's Betsy King, who got the urge to qualify for the Open after almost six years of retirement, and made it in at the age of 55.
A judge has denied a request for a new trial after a Florida jury awarded a woman $36.7 million in damages after her child was born with catastrophic disabilities due to a botched abortion. The jury handed down the verdict, which included $18 million in punitive damages, against Dr. James Scott Pendergraft and his clinic, Orlando Women's Center, on July 21. Absent an appeal from the defendant, the judge's ruling ends a nearly decade-long court battle.
Nearly 16 years after her first child was born, Lin Lewis found herself wondering how best to raise her second child. In her 40s, Lewis of Elizabeth Township had myriad questions about ensuring a good start for young Dalton Nuzzo.

A widow who conceived a baby from the sperm of her late husband is not automatically entitled to Social Security survivor's benefits to help raise the child, the Supreme Court ruled Monday. The 9-0 decision rejected the claim that a biological child of a married couple, even one born years after the father died, always qualifies as his survivor under the Social Security Act.
On the opposite end, Sarah says, "Since my mom had kids, she doesn't care anymore about herself. Her fashion suffers all the time. It's ugly. There are three of us and now we're older and she doesn't have to do much with us anymore. I don't know if she'll change. She gave up. She's shown me stuff she used to wear and it was beautiful. We always try to buy her clothes. She would never wear something where people might look at her. She took a different stance after her next child was born. "After I lost the weight," [Karen] said, "I felt like wearing clothes that made me feel pretty and feminine, clothes I enjoyed that weren't just functional. Now I'm probably the most dressed mom at school. I'm one of the very few that doesn't look like she came out of the gym every day. I like to dress...
