We Are Back! All Hail Inside Voice!

We've been on hiatus while WarriorHauswife learns the ropes at her fancy-schmancy new writing gig at msnNow (c'mon, we don't do these shameless plugs very often). We're back to business now. That is all.

Dad Pumps Some Lead Into Obnoxious Teen's Laptop

OK, so he's not exactly this guy, but one dad is catching flack for hacking into his daughter's "hidden" Facebook posts and airing them on YouTube. Oh, yes -- and for putting some bullets into her laptop.

I don't know -- despite the trigger-happy reaction, I might (mostly) be with the dad after hearing the girl's bratty-yet-typical teenage rants.  

Was this dad too harsh in his YouTube reaction or right on the money?

This Dad Will Not Win Any Father-of-the-Year Awards

Hie Liesheng (a.k.a. "Eagle Dad") has decided to toughen up his 4-year-old son — who, incidentally, was born prematurely and may have cerebral palsy — by making him run naked through a blizzard. Yes, you read this correctly. View the horrific video for yourself.

Tough love or child abuse?

Hero 12-Year-Old Does More to Save Grandmother From Foreclosure Than Anything the Banks Have Done

In a classic Network "I'm mad as hell and not gonna take it anymore" moment, Noah Lamaide discovered his grandmother was about to lose her house after falling behind in mortgage payments and promptly came to the rescue. The entrepreneurial preadolescent raised $10,500 for his granny's house — which had been in the family for three generations — in one month. Foreclosure proceedings were halted, Grandma stayed put.

Noah, we have three words for you: Pretty. Frickin'. Awesome.

What's your reaction to Noah's money-making venture?

Parents F*cked Financially Even Before the Kids Come Along

Stop right there: You most likely cannot afford this stroller. 

If you have children, it's probably no surprise to learn that you have little to no disposable income to speak of. Case in point: We just unexpectedly found out our 7-year-old son needs an expensive "palate extender" to widen his mouth so more teeth can come in (too small of a mouth?! You could've fooled me!).

But enough about me — here's some more about how you have no money. A study has found that two-thirds of first-time parents go into debt buying all that baby crap before the little bundle even arrives. My advice to you: Skip the Peg Perego stroller, stick with the Target brand, and bank that money for all the Starbucks and booze you're going to need to get you through the long weekends at Chuck E. Cheese ahead of you.

Did you spend too much on your first-born?

Facebook, Stop Taking Boobies Off Your Site

 Yeah, we're publishing this pic — because we're not the big, bad Facebook!

Really, it's that simple, Zuckerberg and co. If you simply allow moms to post their images of the all-natural nursing process and stop ripping them off the site because random dudes get the heebie-jeebies every time a baby feeds, they wouldn't be protesting at your offices all over the world. We swear.  

Do you think breastfeeding images should be allowed on Facebook?

Ironman Welcomes Iron Son!

Robert Downey Jr. and his wife Susan have welcomed Exton Elias into the world. The superhero actor couldn't help but blab the sex of his forthcoming baby last year, but he did manage to keep the unusual name under wraps.  

Do you like junior Downey's name?

Note to Schoolchildren: Do Not Perform "Billie Jean" at School or You May Get Suspended

Like 9-year-old Lenny Boberg, who was disciplined thusly after doing a famous Michael Jackson move during a dance routine at school.

Should Lenny have been suspended for his crotch-grabbing choreography?

Spanking Your Kids Just Makes Them More PO'd

If you've always had a sinking suspicion that paddling your kid's tush was having zero effect other than raising his ire, you may be onto something: A new analysis has concluded that spanking really does diddly-squat for children's behavior in the long term and merely ramps up their aggression.

And we certainly don't want that.  

Do you believe in spanking your kids?

Michelle Williams Kicks Her Job to the Curb, Wants to Mom It Up

It's refreshing to see a celebrity want to get rid of the nannies and personal chefs and just...well, be a mom. That's what Michelle Williams is planning on doing for the immediate future with her daughter, Matilda, by late boyfriend Heath Ledger. She's one star we don't necessarily want to disappear — but good on her.
