☆ Opinion: I worry about asthma year round. Here’s what I especially dread in the summer months
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-08 | by ( Opinion Pamela Appea | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

There’s another connection between Canada, asthma and my family — and it’s a somewhat accidental one. Unfortunately, the challenges that my mom faced getting asthma medication persisted. There were times that my mother didn’t fill her prescriptions for her asthma medication out of concern over the cost. Research shows that if you have a parent with asthma, you have a 25% likelihood of developing asthma yourself. Still, I remain vigilant because there is no cure for asthma and my family is so susceptible to its ravages.

CNN —When Elana Milman published an autobiography last year about her lifelong quest to find her birth parents, she had accepted she would never know the identity of her father. Courtesy Elana MilmanIt was only in her 30s that Milman finally discovered her birth certificate, which – after some meticulous research – led her to her birth mother in Canada. It showed she was 50% Ashkenazi Jewish and 50% Eastern European and revealed a match with a Polish woman living in France.

My sister is 9 years younger than I am, and I'm 16 years older than my little brother. And being the older sister — and helping raise my younger siblings — has played a big part in why I don't want kids of my own. It was then that I first had an inkling that raising kids wasn't in the cards for me. Helping raise her younger sister and brother showed Hayley Folk she doesn't want to have kids. Getting to their big sister has been a true honor, and when they really need me, they know I'm always going to be there.

☆ A boomer who struggled to afford retirement in the US moved to Costa Rica and said money is much less of a concern

She looked to Costa Rica as an option, having visited a few times prior, and she knew the cost of living was cheaper and life was calmer. Between her Social Security and pension, she earned $30,000 a year, not nearly enough to enter an assisted living or retirement community. Moving to Costa RicaShe remembered a trip to Costa Rica in 1995 and visited in 2022 and 2023 to see if escaping retirement in the US by living there was viable. She moved to a condo in the Guanacaste region in northwest Costa Rica earlier this year. While the cost of living is much lower in Costa Rica, the exchange rate between the US dollar and Costa Rican colón has worsened, meaning prices in Costa Rica have recently shot up.

☆ What your birth order might say about who you date
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-04 | by ( Julia Pugachevsky | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

According to the viral birth order dating theory, her dating preference makes sense: your birth order may predict the birth order of who you'll be attracted to. In the early 20th century, Austrian psychiatrist Alfred Adler theorized that birth order shapes personality because of how parents interact with each kid. Dating the same birth order can cause clashesJust as it can work well to date someone of a different birth order, dating someone with the same birth order may lead to clashes. She said middle children could also have a mix of both characteristics and might not relate to the "mediator" traits assigned to their birth order. "We can't speak in absolutes, whether it's talking about who you are because of your astrological sign or who you are because of your birth order," Wright said.

London CNN —Police are searching for the parents of three babies who were wrapped in shopping bags and blankets, then abandoned in east London over the past seven years. A court revealed on Monday that baby Elsa, who was found left in a park in cold weather in January, is a sibling of two other newborns, PA Media reported. All three infants were found alive and were quickly cared for, with the oldest two since being adopted, according to PA Media. Like her sister Roman, she was left in very cold January temperatures. The Metropolitan Police said at the time it was “highly likely” that Elsa was born after a “concealed pregnancy,” according to PA Media.

WASHINGTON — At Nativity grade school, we grew up steeped in the lore — and gore — of martyrs. For their brave deeds and words, these men and women were stoned, crucified, beheaded, stripped of all their skin, shot with arrows and cooked alive on a red-hot griddle. So I’m a little surprised my siblings would somehow put Donald Trump in those martyrs’ sainted company. My sister and brother, disturbed by Trump’s constant chaos and slashing insults, saw their hopes for Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley evaporate. I called my Republican sibs Friday to see if hearing the word “guilty” ring out 34 times in a New York courtroom had finally severed them from Trump; they are, after all, children of a police detective.

My dad became a father to me and my twin brother when he was 54. But it had been a long time — my sister is 24 years older than me, and my brother is 26 years older than me. I had a different experience with my dad than my older siblings didBy virtue of the age difference, we were never destined to be as close to them as most siblings are. My parents have had a turbulent relationship with my older siblings, and boundaries were occasionally put in place when it came to communication. But I've only realized this as an adult, as when I was young, I was just confused and, frankly, angry that my older siblings would shun me and my brother.

Despite this income, my husband and I have not agreed to — nor do we plan to — pay for the college tuition of our oldest daughter, a sophomore at the University of Iowa. To be fair, we've decided that we, as parents, don't get to choose which college our children attend. With rising tuition costs, my husband and I think it's essential to evaluate whether the outcomes in terms of ROI justify the financial outlay for college. Committing to paying for one child's college education means we must do the same for all of them to maintain fairness. Evaluating whether to pay for our kids' college tuition was a challenging decision, but it's rooted in our desire to foster autonomy, responsibility, and financial prudence.
