Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Public school systems play a major role in the education of a child, not solely formal education about equations or English literature, but it also formulates for the child ideas about the world they live in, socially and culturally.

Interacting with other chil…

Any healthy relationship should be predicated on trust , loyalty, and honesty. There’s no excuse for lying to your partner’s face, or hiding things behind their back.

Having shared values with your significant other is one of the most important dynamics in a relationship. I always felt like it’s even concomitant to find someone who has overlapping values to you, because if they didn’t it would have been difficult to get further in the relationship. How a person feels about money, marriage, or children matters a lot. If you’re someone who isn’t so into contrived aesthetics, normal hygiene, or materialism, then you're probably going to attract another similar…

The slow burn we all needed.

Like, it's not even weaponized incompetence, they really just are THAT clueless...

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Baby names can be a touchy subject for some people. Some women attach themselves so tightly to a certain name that they feel they have essentially a legal claim on it. It can cause relationships to cloven. It’s a little selfish to assume someone else will adhere to your desires to own a baby name.

Thanksgiving is many Americans' favorite holiday. A plenteous and convivial gathering, uncles and aunts in full merriment, carouse and playful banter, while the little ones run around playing hide-and-seek before dinner. Being a host for such an extravagant holiday is no walk in the park. From cleaning the home, setting up the decorations and food, and greeting the guests, to preparing each and every dish, is a nightmare for some, and an exciting challenge for others. But what happens when your…

‘Money, it’s a crime. Share it fairly, but don’t take a slice of my pie,’ are lyrics from the illustrious psychedelic band, Pink Floyd, in their ever popular hit song, Money . Money makes the world go round, it can make someone wildly ecstatic, or the lack of it can leave someone in shambles. It’s like an ether of everything necessary and everything corrupt.

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Family should always be there for one another. Being able to rely on relatives, parents, and siblings is the beautiful thing about family, but of course there has to be a boundary drawn somewhere. If one feels like they're being used or manipulated, it's time to stand your ground and let the person know where they’re not allowed to step.

Trust and honesty are two crucial requirements for any healthy relationship, and without these foundations, a relationship is doomed to be in insecurity purgatory. Cheating, lying, and any other form of betrayal is likely to make someone walk away the instant they smell it. It begs the question, why do people keep doing it? Fear, doubt, and insecurity are a few reasons,…
