Tipping the healing boat begins from the inside out...as does any other growth process. This may sound like a vague and mild statement, but its implementation and its implications for healing parental alienation and parent-child estrangement are huge.When we are with our adult children after the war we long to have them "understand" what happened on the battlefield and why we were not in their growing childhood or adolescence. And this is where...more

If you know me, you would have learned that I don't usually fall for easy weight loss fads. However, when it comes to teens, I always go for the easier way because there is a big difference between the two situations. If you read on, you will find out the difference lying between the weight loss for teens and adults, and how dieting and exercising should be designed for teenagers so that they can lose weight fast with ease.The difference lies in self-discipline. Kids are still in a stage of life which mainly consists playing and learning. Although self-control is good for the life lying ahead, it can only be factored in gradually. However, to get them started, we'd better turn to easy weight loss for teens. Despite of the difference, the same two components are inevitably involved in the teenage fat loss portfolio. In particular, they are dieting and exercising. Dieting is the component where the parents should be involved. Parents are supposed to prepare the meals for their kids. Fruits and vegetables that can be eaten raw are recommended to be included in the meals. They should be inserted between meals as snacks.

Whether you are five or fifty, a Scavenger hunt never loses its appeal. The game has been a favorite during Halloween, but can be enjoyed for any season or occasion. Simple back yard excursions can be set up for small parties, or grand and outrageous ones held at amusement centers for bigger group events. It can be played individually, or among rivaling teams, who need to find a list of items revolving around a common theme. Planning a scavenger hunt for kids requires some important considerations. For one, the setting of your hunt should be enclosed (like a back yard), and small enough that kids may find all the items in their list without getting lost. If you are hosting a hunt for toddlers and preschool-aged children, try to tone down the ghouls and goblin decorations so as not to scare the kids away. Ensure the safety of your scavenger hunt by clearing the game area of any clutter. Pick up any toys or items lying around which kids might trip on, refrain from including Scavenger hunt items that are choking hazards, and take out candles from jack-o-lanterns. Provide the participants with flashlights if they are going to play out in the lawn at nighttime. Set up game rules and...more
