Parenting shaming is something real, and sadly, many moms and dads, especially those who are having a baby for the first time, experience this. Somehow, everyone believes they know better how a child should be raised than those who gave the little bundle of joy life.

A woman shared a traumatizing story of her mother trying to sleep train her baby against the woman’s will by locking it inside the room.

The truth is that most babies cry, most times without a reason, and although it can be truly tiring to try and calm them down over and over again, every parent has a different approach towards this ‘issue.’

The grandmother from this story believed she needed to sleep train her granddaughter against the will of the mother of the baby. Sadly, that cause the relationship between her and her daughter to turn into a rocky one.

When the baby, Lila, was born, everyone was eager to meet her, and that included her maternal grandparents. However, they both had certain health issues. The grandma had undergone a knee replacement surgery, while the grandpa had eye issues, so they couldn’t drive long ways and lived hours apart.

So, around three months later, baby Lila and her parents went to visit her maternal grandparents.

However, Lila’s crib couldn’t pass through the door to the guest room where her parents were supposed to sleep, but that wasn’t an issue according to her mom because the guest room and the other room were next to each other and with Lila “having a set of lungs on her” her parents knew they would hear her right away if she starts to cry.

“We made our peace with it as the spare and guest room are next to each other and she’s so loud we didn’t doubt we’d be able to hear her. Sure enough, Friday night, there are 3 total crying sessions to deal with [sic],” Lila’s mom, who’s sharing this story, wrote.

The following day, the grandma suggested that they sleep train Lila, but the mom was against it because she believed she was way too young to be let to cry out.

Still, during the night, when the baby started crying and her mom went to calm her down, she noticed the door to the room was closed. When she went to her mom to ask her for the key, she said she wouldn’t give it to her because it was for the best to let the baby cry out and sleep train.

After some arguing, the woman went to her father, Lila’s grandpa, and asked him to talk to his wife. Following an argument, the grandma gave her daughter the key but called her a “helicopter parent,” claiming it wasn’t the right thing to pick her baby up whenever she starts crying.

The woman decided she would no longer visit her mother if that visit requires staying there overnight.

Sharing this story, the woman also noted that her baby was born prematurely and was three moths old, which was way too early to be sleep trained and left alone in a room.

The Reddit users who responded to this post believed that the grandmother didn’t do the right thing. For one, she shouldn’t have get involved in her daughter’s parenting decisions, and she shouldn’t have locked her granddaughter inside the room.

“That your mother actually had the audacity to lock the room is a gross violation of your trust in her. The consequences are yours – as her parents – to decide about,” one person said.

Less than two weeks following the passing of Matthew Perry’s, his official death certificate emerged online.

Perry was found dead of an apparent drowning in a hot tub at his home in LA and no illegal drugs had been found at the scene. The only medication in the house was prescribed medicine which was kept in a storage.

Perry, who gained worldwide fame thanks to the character of Chandler Bing which he portrayed on the iconic TV show Friends, was buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles this past weekend. As expected, his castmates were all in attendance.

Knowing that Perry spent plenty of years battling addictions and fighting his demons, there have been a bunch of rumors related to the exact cause of his death.

He was indeed someone who fought hard to break off his habits and stay sober, for which he had spent over $7 million over the years, but that wasn’t always easy. In fact, Perry used his personal experience to help others who were in the same position as he was.

Word of the star’s death was first reported by TMZ, who claimed that first responders had rushed to Perry’s property after a call for cardiac arrest.

Prior to his sudden passing, Perry, who was an avid player of pickleball, a mash-up of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. He played the sport every day, sometimes even twice, and on the day he died, he seemed unusually exhausted, his pickleball partner reported.

When Perry’s assistant, whom he refereed to as Erin in his memoir, returned home after running errands, she found Perry’s head underwater, Captain Erik Scott of the LAFD reported.

Perry’s official death certificate was reportedly obtained by The Blast earlier this week, and it confirms rumors suggesting that his ’cause of death’ would be deferred were true.

Reports have insisted that Perry’s toxicology report is still being processed, and that it will be weeks before it is ready. Initial tests showed that there was no meth or fentanyl in Perry’s system at the time of his death, but more in-depth testing needs to be done to rule out the potential presence of other drugs.

Close friends of Perry have stated that the actor was clean and sober prior to his death, while Perry himself had showed a clear willingness to turn his life around in recent years

In 2022, Perry released his memoir Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing, speaking openly within its pages about his struggles with addiction.

I think I can speak for all of us when I say that we’re going to miss Matthew Perry enormously. Thanks for all the memories!

Finding the appropriate accommodation when traveling can give most people a hard time, just like it did to the husband and wife from the joke below.

Make sure you read it, it will certainly make you laugh.

A husband and wife were traveling by car from Key West to Boston. After almost twenty-four hours on the road, they were too tired to continue, and they decided to stop for a rest. They stopped at a nice hotel and took a room, but only planned to sleep for four hours and then got back on the road. When they checked out four hours later, the desk clerk handed them a bill for $350.

The man explodes and demands to know why the charge is so high. He tells the clerk although it’s a nice hotel, the rooms certainly aren’t worth $350. When the clerk tells him $350 is the standard rate, the man insists on speaking to the manager.

The manager appears, listens to the man, and then explains that the hotel has an Olympic sized pool and a huge conference center that were available for the husband and wife to use.

“But we didn’t use them.” the man complains. “Well, they are here, and you could have.” explains the manager.

He goes on to explain they could have taken in one of the shows for which the hotel is famous. “The best entertainers from New York, Hollywood and Las Vegas perform here.” the manager says. “But we didn’t go to any of those shows.” complains the man again.

“Well, we have them, and you could have.” the manager replies. No matter what facility the manager mentions, the man replies, “But we didn’t use it!”

The manager is unmoved, and eventually, the man gives up and agrees to pay. He writes a check and gives it to the manager. The manager is surprised when he looks at the check. “But sir,” he says, “this check is only made out for $100.”

“That’s right,” says the man. “I charged you $250 for sleeping with my wife.”

“But I didn’t!” exclaims the manager.

“Well,” the man replies, “she was here, and you could have.”
