The childfree have been referring to this is “placenta brain” and have known about this for DECADES. I guess this sort of “late break news” is so late because parents are the ones reporting on it?

But when can we expect the effects to wear off? My kids are 14, 16 and 19 and I’m still suffering!

While some make joke about this issue or think that it is common knowledge or “newsworthy”, it’s really a serious issue! It might not be as serious to some as others who may not be actually going through it but my youngest is almost 3 and I still suffer from forgetfulness. It wouldn’t be that funny if you were the one forgetting things at work, field trips, conversations, memories, activities, something someone told you 2 minutes ago….. But hey, some people are just ignorant, but obviously for it to make the news, it must mean be newsworthy to someone.
