Is the extreme heat causing you seasonable depression?
Some people's lives become standstills due to severe heat. They have to stay inside where there is air conditioning rather than go to parks, camps or hikes. Giving up outdoor activities may lead to depression.

How can I get my 3-year-old son to stop acting like a little child? He sings, laughs, and runs around. I've whipped his bare back with belts and steel cables but he still won't stop. What should I do?
Beatings from a belt is painful but being beaten by a steel cable can be fatal. You need to stop

Can people with anxiety live normally?
You certainly can. When you are anxious, you must come up with inventive ways to relax. Meditation, drawing, painting, yoga, riding, hiking, exercise, walking, and rollerblading are all very calming. If you're working play some calm music in the background.

Why people view losing as a reason to give up in life?
Most people feel like they are losing sometimes. It is okay to lose, but you have to keep going. In life, there are many tasks, and most of them you don't complete the first time. We did not learn to walk, talk or read , on our first try.

Is it true that parents who get angry easily make better teachers because their anger helps them discipline students more effectively than teachers who do not get angry easily?
No, it is not true. Most students prefer teachers who care about them, understand them, and treat them with respect.

What can you do to boost your mood if you live alone?
A pet can truly make a person feel happier, more connected to others, and more alive. After getting a puppy, one of my friends who lived alone felt much happier and less lonely when she returned home because no one was there to welcome her.

Who is a child's first teacher?
A child's first teacher is their parent. Many parents instill good manners in children before they enter school. "Thank you" and "please" are taught by parents. These comments have an impact on how a child get along with classmates. Good behavior counts.
