Reader TTS

The March issue of _AARP Bulletin _offers readers a slew of the latest news updates and stories — from the latest rising mail scam to the heartbreaking-but-frequent scenarios in which

grandparents are relied on for parental duties again.  THE FOLLOWING ARE HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH’S _BULLETIN_: FRAUD WATCH: THE CHECK IS NOT IN THE MAIL Are your mailed checks safe?

Stealing paper checks from mailboxes is on the fast rise in the U.S., often leading to losses of thousands of dollars per crime. In this emerging fraud, criminals use bleach or acetone to

carefully remove all details from your check — except your signature. That essentially leaves them a blank check. This month, learn all about this decidedly low-tech scam and how to protect

yourself from becoming a victim. YOUR LIFE: CALLED TO PARENT — AGAIN The twin crises of the opioid epidemic and the COVID-19 pandemic have left thousands of children orphaned, increasing the

pressure on grandparents to take on a parental role again. The most recent census tells us that 7.1 million U.S. grandparents are living with grandchildren in their home — more than ever

before. This month in Your Life, the _Bulletin_ shares the stories of this upsetting trend and offers resources for support. YOUR MONEY: PROTECT YOURSELF FROM DANGEROUS PRODUCTS Product

recalls are increasing and often for products not typical for recall. Shockingly few people bother to respond, at their own peril — responding can be a matter of life and death. The good

news is that recall remedies are free. In this issue, we give you tips to help protect you and your family. YOUR HEALTH: HEALTH ‘TRUTHS’ YOU CAN IGNORE Sometimes, an offhand comment (such as

“you’ll catch a cold outside if you don’t put on a warmer jacket!”) seems to become a fact when it’s repeated often enough, even without evidence to support it. Read this month’s Your

Health to learn 16 health “truths” you can mostly ignore.  COVER STORY: THE PANDEMIC’S IMPACT ON HOME, FAMILY, HEALTH CARE, MONEY AND MORE As we enter year four of COVID-19, life in America

is a tale of two pandemics. In noteworthy ways, the greatest health crisis of our time appears to be over, yet a new strain of COVID has emerged that is particularly tough on older people.

From telehealth and working from home to travel, many aspects of our lives have changed. This month’s cover story of the _Bulletin_ looks at what’s changing, what’s not and what’s next for

people 50-plus. VIEW BULLETIN   ------------------------- PAST ISSUES OF _AARP BULLETIN_ JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2023 Lean why heart-related health challenges are on the rise and the best ways to
