The out of pocket cost of the birth of my son, after “good” insurance, after meeting my deductible (despite a wicked pregnancy, everyone was healthy) was OVER TEN THOUSAND US DOLLARS.
And then I went back to work still bleeding. So I don’t think it’s the phones.
Are smartphones causing people to have fewer children? A provocative new working paper explores the persistent drop in birth rates since the iPhone was introduced nearly two decades ago.

Ever since the first illegal boat strike, I've been haunted by the betrayal of our duty to render aid and what it means for the safety of life at sea.
Your reminder that fairy tales are full of stepmothers because women once routinely died in childbirth, from postpartum sepsis, or from other infectious diseases and left behind housefuls of motherless children.
