How much TV is your tot watching?
No pain, no gain! Those words were drummed into me by my father so many times, I long ago stopped counting up the reasons why he said what he said. Despite the untruth of them, after a while, they started to sink in. Do anything long enough, and it will become your habit, even the phrases you think with, and that influence the way you feel about your life. For the first forty years of my life, his words determined how I felt, what I did, and how I reacted to circumstances, but not in the way he would have …

For men, living in your father’s shadow can be one of the most soul destructive positions to be in. It will strip your will and the joy out of your life. It places you in a no-win situation. Imagine being Donald Trump Junior; how can you ever outdo Donald Trump? Are you going to be able to make more money? Be more famous? Or be more controversial? For some sons the choice is to go the opposite direction. They become alcoholics and drug abusers to get out from under the shadow.
As a baby you are fed everything you is til you master the motor control of your hands and arms. Then everything you can see and reach is put into your mouth. This is the first lesson in learning what is “good” and what is “Not so” good. First we eat with our eyes, then we eat with our mouth. This has been true since time began.

Well, just like many of you I have been dreading this day, October 29th, today.
Somewhere along my journey through life I lost my imagination. I don’t know if there’s some mystic lost and found box somewhere that you have to go and pick it up again after a certain age or if your mind locks it up after you get and job and experience the “real world”. Maybe it’s more simple than that, like it just silently creeps out of your ear while you are sleeping. In any case all I know is that mine is lost.
Although all parts of the human body need care and upkeep in order to work at their peak potential, teeth require a bit more attention than most. A person’s teeth experience a great deal of wear and tear throughout his life, and though they’re designed to be permanent and function with a minimal amount of problems, teeth that are improperly cared for can cause a whole host of difficulties.
Almost one out of five children become obese in their growing years. The percentage of children who has become overweight has doubled since the 70’s. No thanks to the food advertisements being shown in national television.
It’s not unusual for children to run away from home. In fact, they’ve been doing it for hundreds of years. I’ve done it myself – not once, but three times. Like many children who run away, I came back within a few hours the first time. As child abuse articles often discuss, running away is often impulsive and unplanned.
