DEAR HARRIETTE: I’m about to welcome a new baby into my family soon, and it’s through adoption.I’m over-the-moon excited and ready for the challenge of being a new parent, but I’m also struggling with the difficult question of when to tell the child they’re adopted. I understand that it’s something they’ll eventually find out and something I can’t keep hidden forever, so when should I have that conversation? What would be the most appropriate age?It’s something I take very seriously, and I don’t want to give my child the wrong information at the wrong time.Expectant ParentDEAR EXPECTANT PARENT: Congratulations on the next step in your new family. What a blessing it is to welcome a child into your life!There are many opinions about how and when to tell your child that they are adopted, so I can’t give you a definitive answer. I can tell you the going wisdom. Educators believe that children have a growing sense of aware...Tiroteo en Newark: un niño de 7 años y otras dos personas mueren en la balacera

NABLUS, West Bank (AP) — Israeli troops on Thursday killed three Palestinian militants wanted in connection with a shooting attack that killed a British-Israeli woman and two of her daughters, the Israeli military said, the latest bloodshed in a relentless wave of violence.In a rare daytime incursion launched as residents were starting their day, the military said forces entered the heart of the flashpoint city of Nablus and raided an apartment where the men were located. Troops and the suspects exchanged fire and the three men were killed.The military said the men were behind an attack last month on a car near a Jewish West Bank settlement that killed the British-Israeli mother and two of her daughters. In a statement after the raid, Hamas claimed the three men, identified as Hassan Qatnani, Moaz al-Masri and Ibrahim Jabr, as members and took responsibility for the April attack. Israeli shells ripped through the roof of the gunmen’s safe house in the heart of Nablus’ Old City...Israel afirma que los asesinos de la madre y las hijas británico-israelíes murieron tiroteados en Nablus

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Thursday made an unannounced visit to the International Criminal Court, which has issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin for alleged war crimes in Ukraine.Zelenskyy was on a visit to The Hague, which hosts the ICC as well as the United Nations’ top judicial organ, the International Court of Justice. The Dutch city calls itself the international city of peace and justice.Judges at the ICC last month announced they found “reasonable grounds to believe” that Putin and his commissioner for children’s rights were responsible for the unlawful deportation and unlawful transfer of children from occupied areas of Ukraine to Russia.But the chances of Putin standing trial in The Hague are remote, The court does not have a police force to execute its warrants, and the Russian leader is unlikely to travel to any of the ICC’s 123 member states that are under an obligation to arrest him if they can.THIS...Ukrainian President Zelenskyy visits International Criminal Court, which accuses Russian leader Putin of war crimes

DALLAS (AP) — Airbnb is making a renewed push into renting single rooms in a nod to its beginnings and a realization that renting an entire house is too expensive for many travelers, especially younger ones.The short-term rental company rolled out a new offering Wednesday that it calls Airbnb Rooms. Guests can rent a room in the same house or apartment as their host at prices that Airbnb says will average $67 a night.“It is an admission that travelers care more about affordability than they did a year ago,” said CEO Brian Chesky.Airbnb has always listed single rooms in houses and apartments. The company said the new offering will give more biographical information about hosts, and consumers can sort listings to learn details including whether their bedroom door locks and the bathroom is private or shared.It’s a throwback to the original concept that Chesky and Joe Gebbia — now chairman of Airbnb — had in 2007, when they took guests in their San Francisco apartment to hel...Latest news
