The Department of War has just released an operational update on the war in Iran, via Admiral Brad Cooper, explaining what we’ve done so far and how thoroughly we’ve impacted Iran’s ability . . .

Secretary of State Marco Rubio told us that the US was about to kick it up a notch, and this could be it. Or it could be Israel hitting an industrial complex . . .

From Marilyn Monroe to Drew Barrymore, these stars have received widespread acclaim—but not from the Academy.

U.S. military officials released the names of four American soldiers killed in the war with Iran as the State Department sought additional flights to get more than 1,000 U.S. citizens out of the Middle East as the war expands to neighboring countries, causing panic to the markets and oil prices to surge. During a press conference on Capitol Hill, Rubio said 9,000 Americans have been able to leave the region, while another 1,500 people are still trying to get out. The federal government is looking at a combination of larger commercial flights, charter flights, military transportation and land routes to help Americans who are stuck in the Middle East.

The four-day conflict in the Middle East escalated as Iranian missile and drone attacks threatened Gulf nations. U.S. embassies and diplomatic missions are increasingly coming under fire in response to the American and Israeli military offensive. A drone struck the parking lot of the U.S. consulate in Dubai, according to a U.S. official and Dubai's government media office. The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, came under attack twice on Tuesday, causing part of the roof to collapse, according to people familiar with the matter.

There’s a popular trend where parents often share they are creating “core memories” for their children on social media posts, whether it’s planning an elaborate vacation or creating an extra-special holiday moment. While it’s important for parents to want their kids to have happy childhoods, sometimes it feels presumptuous when they believe they can manufacture a core memory. Especially when a child’s inner world is so different than an adult’s. The concept of “core memories” was made mainstream in 2015 thanks to Disney’s Inside Out. In it, “core memories” are born from moments and experiences that majorly shape a part of the main character, Riley’s, personality. The experience(s) can be grand or benign; the point is these moments are ultimately forming Riley into the person she is. Seems pretty hard to manufacture such a moment, but parents are certainly trying. A media4.giphy.com Carol Kim, a mother of three and licensed Marriage and family Therapist, known as Parenting.Resilience on Instagram, recently shared the “5 Things Kids Will Remember from Their Childhood” on her page. The fascinating insight is that none of the entries had to do with extravagant vacations, over-the-top birthday parties, or Christmas gifts that kids could only dream about. According to Kim, the five things that kids will remember all revolve around their parents’ presence and support. “Notice how creating good memories doesn’t require expensive toys or lavish family trips. Your presence is the most valuable present you can give to your child,” Kim wrote in the post’s caption. View this post on Instagram   1. Quality time together “Taking some time to focus only on your child is very special. Playing games, reading books, or just talking can create strong, happy memories. These moments show your child that you are present with them.” 2. Words of encouragement “Encouraging words can greatly impact your child during both good times and tough times. Kids often seek approval from their parents and your positive words can be a strong motivator and source of comfort…. It can help kids believe in themselves, giving them the confidence to take on new challenges and keep going when things get tough.” 3. Family traditions “It creates a feeling of stability and togetherness … Family traditions make children feel like they belong and are part of a larger story, deepening their sense of security and understanding of family identity and values.”   Even the simplest tradition speaks volumes.

They remember how good it feels to help others and to see their parents helping too.” 5. Comfort during tough times “Knowing they can rely on you during tough times makes them feel secure and build trust. … Comforting them when they’re struggling shows them they are loved no matter what, helping them feel emotionally secure and strong.” Kim’s strategies are all beautiful ways to be present in our children’s lives and to communicate our support. However, these seemingly simple behaviors can be challenging for some parents who are dealing with issues stemming from their pasts. “If you find barriers to providing these things, it’s important to reflect on why,” Kim writes in the post. “There could be several reasons, such as parenting in isolation (we’re not meant to parent alone), feeling overstimulated, dealing with past trauma, or struggling with mental health. Recognizing these challenges is the first step to addressing them and finding support.” This article originally appeared last year.The post 5 ‘core’ childhood memories your kid will cherish forever, according to a psychologist appeared first on Upworthy.
