Habits Your Kids Need to Break and How to Help Them Do It
Children don't tend to have an aptitude for being able to tell what is socially acceptable and what isn't. What an adult or a parent might consider a bad habit is, to a child, a natural thing to do. However, your kid can't grow up and still be nose picking in public as an 18-year-old. With your guidance, those habits your kids need to break won't be so tough to conquer.

Making Our Way Through the Muck
Tonight my middle child, my youngest daughter, made me cry. We were sitting around the supper table remembering when my youngest daughter and her brother first met my husband. We talked about their first reactions and we laughed about them. As we cleared the table my daughter said, “You know mum I remember that I wasn’t very nice to you (at that time). I feel bad about that and I am sorry how I treated you back then.” I gave her a hug and told her how she was but a young child then and she was going through a lot; her father and I had split up and he had been abusive to all of us. I told her that I bared a lot from all three of my children at that time, but I had big shoulders and took it because I knew they were hurting. We hugged and she said she was sorry and that she loved me. I am grateful for her apology.

The Irony of Conservation
Long before an American dentist shot the village icon, Cecil the Lion, the debate on African conservation has raged. The “war,” it seems, was only fiercened by the events that followed the fatal shot by Walter Palmer. Conservationists have been debating for many years now on whether or not hunting played a part in conservation. However, in recent years, studies and research has begun to show that hunting is part of conservation. Despite the recent evidence, most of the general population believe that banning trophy hunting altogether will solve the wildlife problem. While this solution may seem to be the best option, once one looks at the whole picture, it becomes evident that hunting plays an essential role in conservation. Banning hunting will not help the conservation effort due to the fact that, without hunting, there is no incentive for the African population to protect wildlife, and eco-tourism as an alternative to hunting will not be effective in remote or unstable areas.

We’re No Angels
Last I checked I have a penis. My name is Joel Eisenberg. I am a writer and television producer based in Los Angeles. I have no record of sexual harassment and, everything being fair, that status will remain unchanged. I was raised well by my parents, I’m happily married, and I respect women.
