Let’s be real: nobody stands in front of the altar with their forever person thinking things are going to go sideways.

That’s exactly what happened when a dad decided to keep things simple after his son hosted three friends for a sleepover....

No one should ever feel pressured to feel insecure and even ashamed of how they look. Sadly, the reality is often different.

This is a form of bullying, so why does it still find a place in our society?...

And when someone tries to interfere with the grades you give out… well, hang on to your hats because that’s overstepping the line by a wide margin....

You can’t have healthy relationships without some type of boundaries. Even when it comes to your family (or perhaps especially in those cases), it’s essential to set a framework of what kind of behavior is and isn’t acceptable. When people cross that line, they must know they’ve messed up. There have to be consequences for terrible behavior.
