Teen Works Hard To Save $10k To Have “Safe Haven Baby Box” Installed In His Community

Rigell Capisen — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 03:28:24 +0000

We often hear people say that life is a blessing. However, that might not be the case if it’s a result of an unplanned and unexpected pregnancy, or worse, sexual coercion. Nonprofit organization Safe Haven Baby Boxes offers an alternative choice for unprepared parents who are incapable of caring for their children.

As the name suggests, the organization provides drop-off boxes for newborn babies that would otherwise be abandoned on the streets. Typically installed on exterior walls of fire stations and hospitals, the boxes feature sensors and temperature regulators. When a baby is surrendered, a silent alarm will activate, alerting the personnel and prompting them to retrieve the child.

Safe Haven Baby Boxes

In 2019, a 19-year-old teenager made the headlines for raising $10K to install a Safe Haven Baby Box in his community

A junior at Columbus North High School, Indiana at the time, Hunter Wart decided to raise the funds as part of his senior project.

Safe Haven Baby Boxes

He spent several months mowing lawns and scrapping metal to raise the amount required to purchase the device. According to his mom Julia Kwasniewski, “It was a lot of hard work. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears.” The teenager’s efforts finally paid off after the box’s installation at the Seymour Fire Department in June 2019.

Safe Haven Baby Boxes

In less than a year after its installation, the firefighters received an abandoned newborn for the first time. It was a healthy baby girl. They estimated her to be an hour old only at the time of the drop-off. The firefighters initially cared for her while waiting for the ambulance that would send her to the hospital. According to officials, the baby will be in the custody of state child services workers upon release.

Fire chief Brad Lucas then expressed his delight over the success of the system and how people used it as intended. In recognition of Wart’s hard work, he got the privilege of naming the baby, and he named her Mia.

According to Monica Kelsey, founder of the organization, the state hasn’t recorded any deaths among abandoned babies since the installation of the box

Kelsey, who experienced abandonment as a baby, launched the initiative in 2016. Aside from preventing illegal abandonment of infants, the boxes also provide anonymity to mothers who opt to surrender their babies.

Through its 24-hour hotline, the organization also extends assistance and counseling to mothers in crisis. To date, there are over 100 drop-off boxes across Indiana, Ohio, Arkansas, and Florida.

While most people are grateful for these boxes, they also felt sad about the need for them

Meanwhile, others couldn’t help but criticize anti-abortion groups

Little Lies Parents Tell Their Kids That Are Pure Genius

Rowena Marie Callejo — Mon, 14 Feb 2022 17:36:35 +0000

Whether it’s ‘the candy store is closed’ when you want to limit sweets for your kids or ‘storks deliver babies’ when you aren’t yet ready to explain how babies are made, most parents have to come up with lies as a tactic to change their behavior, end a public meltdown, or avoid an uncomfortable conversation. The idea of lying to your kids may sound harsh but it is sometimes the only way to deal with arguments or tantrums. While honesty is essential in building up your kid’s trust on you, it is sometimes acceptable to bend the truth especially if it helps you with discipline.

Santa Claus only gives presents to nice kids, we sent the family pet to your uncle’s farm, broccoli makes you taller – you’ve probably told these common lies to your kids at some point. It’s absolutely okay to engage in make-believe with your kids. So, telling them that Santa or Tooth Fairy exists is a harmless part of parenting. However, these brilliant parents didn’t just go with the stereotyped white lies that most parents tell their kids. They went above and beyond playing Pinocchio and were successful at it that these can be considered as clever parenting hacks.

Parents Share Their Clever ‘White’ Lies That Could Pass As Brilliant Parenting Hacks

My kids think the Tooth Fairy is allergic to dust and she can’t come unless their rooms are super clean.

— Mindy Mejia (@MejiaWrites) June 24, 2020

These sharp-witted parents are more than willing to share their clever parenting tricks that are guaranteed to work. Of course, you can learn a trick or two from this hilarious Twitter thread. We’ve picked out the best and the funniest lies parents have told their kids that could pass as a handy parenting hack.

Convinced my toddler there’s a game called “Put Daddy to Bed” where she pretends to put me to bed and I sleep. That’s probably my proudest accomplishment as a parent.

You Can Have Your Ultrasound Photos Embroidered

Rowena Marie Callejo — Sun, 26 Sep 2021 06:05:05 +0000

Cherish your most memorable keepsake with these ultrasound embroideries. Pregnancy is one of the most life-changing milestones in a woman’s life. For most expectant moms, having to wait for 40 weeks to see their baby can feel like a lifetime. Ultrasound imaging allows a pregnant woman to get a sneak peek of her little angel inside her womb. This medical imaging technique not only shows how the baby looks like in real time, but it also reveals the position and gender of the unborn baby. More importantly, it is an essential tool to help doctors assess the health of the baby so they can prepare for the safest childbirth possible.

Furthermore, ultrasound photos are important mementos. Some people even frame these images and display them on the wall to showcase their most unforgettable life event. But if you love craft, you’ll be happy to know that there’s a way to recreate these medical images into embroideries. Embroidery artist Yulia Sherbak stitches threads into a fabric on hoop to recreate any portrait. An ultrasound technologist by profession, the idea of combining her craft and profession arrived to her when she dug up her daughter’s old ultrasound photo.

Ultrasound Embroideries

After finishing her first ultrasound thread painting, she shared a photo of it on her Instagram account. And people loved it! Sherbak has been flooded with requests for custom orders from people who also wanted to immortalize their kid’s ultrasound photos by turning them into embroideries. And that’s how it all started.

To recreate the monochrome image, Sherbak uses white-colored thread stitched into a black cotton fabric. Each personalized piece is framed in either 3-inch or 4-inch diameter wooden hoop, depending on your choice of size. The hoop comes with a gold tone screw to let you hang the embroidered portrait on the wall easily.

If you want your own ultrasound embroideries, head over to the artist’s Etsy shop to place your order. After checking out, the shop will then require you to send the reference picture. You can scan the original ultrasound image or take a photo of it. If you choose to do the latter, make sure to capture the pic sharply without any glare. Once you’ve submitted the photo, allow 8 – 10 weeks turnaround time. If you want to include the name and date on the ultrasound embroideries, let the shop know by specifying all the complete info on the customization details.

“This item is absolutely lovely!”, one satisfied customer wrote. “I couldn’t be any happier and in awe of it. It’s beautiful and was a great gift for my parents.”

The craze for Pinkfong’s viral nursery song might have died down a little bit but your little tots probably haven’t gotten over it yet. Here’s a clever trick – let them sing along with this infuriatingly catchy song for hours while they unknowingly help you with cleaning by letting them have this Baby Shark Vacuum. So, they can have fun singing ‘doo doo doo’ for hours while they clean up after themselves without knowing it.

You know how kids love to copy what we do and try to help around the house.

Furthermore, it is equipped with real suction power (450PA) to pick up small debris such as poly beads and chip crumbs. This cleaning toy may not be as effective as a regular vacuum cleaner but it will help your little ones clean up their own mess and develop essential life skills in the long run.

Baby Shark Vacuum

To let your kids have fun with their cleaning chore, this Baby Shark Vacuum plays music with accompanying lights at the touch of a button. You won’t even dare ask us what ‘music’ it plays. But let us just confirm your guess – yes – it will play that popular earworm to let your kids sing along with it. This toy also has a simulated cyclone action featuring the entire Baby Shark family. And just like the real thing, this toy replica also has removable waste bin so your kids can see how much they’ve cleaned.

This toy vacuum cleaner has a built-in rechargeable battery that can provide up to 1.5 hours of cordless runtime per charge. It comes with a micro USB cable for charging and has a powerful built-in speaker to make sure that you’re hearing the catchy rhyme loud and clear. It weighs only 2.2 pounds so your kids can carry it anywhere and has an adjustable handle height ranging from 22.4 inches to 25 inches. Suitable for kids age 2 years and older, your little one is going to love flaunting it around with its recognizable blue and yellow colors. One happy buyer wrote:

“It’s a toy, not a vacuum. It has a small suction power which makes it safe for kids. My daughter loves trying to help me clean so I got her this vacuum so she can learn to help me vacuuming. It plays Baby Shark on continuous use. You can turn on and off the suction which helps swirl the fish in the container. It’s a fun toy.”

Woman Sits Near Little Girl On Flight And She Kept Giving “One-Liners” That Were Too Good Not To Share

Rowena Marie Callejo — Sun, 22 Aug 2021 01:14:57 +0000

Your seatmate on a plane is a total mystery – until they sit next to you. While we’ve heard plenty of nightmarish stories about seatmates from hell, there are also those heartening stories of finding their ideal friends in random persons sitting next to them who in one way or another, made their flight a wonderful experience. Twitter user @KatiHartwig shared her own amazing experience with a seatmate who happened to be a little girl who kept serving hilarious one-liners.

Sitting next to kids on planes can give any passenger a dreadful flight. They have short attention spans, make a lot of noises, break down frequently, and cry a lot – which are just normal behaviors in distressed kids during a long flight. While having a rowdy kid as a seatmate on a plane is never fun, there are also definite upsides of sitting next to a kid as well. Hartwig, a digital media specialist for Columbus Airport, got a sweet encounter with a little girl sitting in her adjacent seat on her recent flight on Southwest Airlines.

Woman Tweets Her Amusing Encounter With A Little Girl During Flight And Her Random One-Liners

KatiHartwig

Shawnee, the 6-year-old passenger, was on her way to Florida with her parents who were seated in a different row. The little girl decided to start a conversation with Hartwig, ‘warning’ her that she’s going to talk to her randomly. Soon enough, the little girl began serving witty one-liners that got her seatmate very impressed.

KatiHartwig

As soon as the plane took off, Shawnee began saying clever one-liners about random things including in-flight food, the view outside, her mature choice of TV shows, and even the Wright brothers. They clicked with each other right from the start and both got engaged talking with each other. Hartwig really enjoyed the little girl’s witty remarks while the little girl also became interested about Hartwig’s job. The friendly kid even helped her choose photos and videos for her work profile.

Hartwig decided to share her fantastic encounter with the young passenger on Twitter, documenting their conversation and her random one-liners. At first, she intended to share her amusing experience to her friends to share the laughs.

Little did she know that her tweets would blow up and become viral. While many people find her story amusing, other people thought she just made up the whole story. Some people even asked her to take a photo of the girl to prove that she’s actually real.

Twitter

It wasn’t Hartwig’s intention to exploit the girl when she made those now-viral tweets but rather to share the smiles with her close friends. She insisted that the girl was traveling with her parents and she would never publicize a child without the parent’s permission. Hartwig couldn’t care less if people believed her story or not.

For her, having the opportunity to meet this amazing kid made this particular flight one of the most memorable. On her viral Twitter thread, people also began sharing their own funny conversations with kids during flights. And these amusing stories really make us realize that sitting next to a kid on a plane isn’t that bad after all.

People Share The Hilarious Differences In ‘My Parents Vs Me’ Tweets

Rowena Marie Callejo — Thu, 05 Aug 2021 04:31:40 +0000

Every generation, from Baby Boomers to Generation Z, has its own approach to lifestyles and values. To show the huge difference of one generation to another, people started a Twitter thread called ‘My Parents Vs Me’ challenge. The challenge is quite simple and straightforward: it aims to show how people are adapting to generational change. All millennials and Generation Z are invited to share their photos alongside old photos of their parents when they were at their (millennials and Gen Z) age. And the responses are mind-blowing.

As it turns out, older generations have generally tied the knot or already have kids in their 20’s or 30’s. And how do the younger generations compare with those who were their age in the generations that came before them? Well, if they’re not partying hard with friends, they’re probably busy dressing up with silly costumes to amuse their Instagram followers. Or perhaps they’re busy cooking up the coolest dance moves on TikTok. If not then they might be traveling somewhere together with their beloved cats.

My Parents Vs Me Challenge

Bloody5Iveezy

The truth of the matter is, younger generations are more focused on their personal goals than getting married or starting a family. Youngsters have eventually broken the social stigma of staying single when they reach marriageable age (21-29 years old). They seek to normalize life choices where marriage isn’t involved because they value happiness and personal success more than anything else.

But don’t get the younger generations wrong. They might be delaying marriage but that doesn’t mean they intend to be single forever. While some millennials would not compromise their freedom for the commitment of marriage or having kids, many of these young people plan to finally settle down when they have become financially successful. Besides, there’s nothing wrong with having fun and enjoying youth to the fullest before accepting the serious responsibility of marriage and raising a family.

We’ve picked out the most hilarious and most relatable posts from the Twitter thread ‘My Parent Vs Me’ challenge to show the light-years difference between two generations.
