fear based parenting

Parenting is an art form that has evolved significantly over the years, moving away from authoritarian models toward more understanding and empathetic approaches.

Historically, some parents have operated under the belief that instilling fear in their children could lead to better discipline and respect.

This article explores the potential outcomes of raising children in an atmosphere of fear, drawing on psychological insights and real-life implications.

Confession of the Day

Bf doesn’t look at me during sex

I know he’s a highly visual person because he used to watch porn multiple times a day before he told me he cut back (after multiple arguments) because it was causing issues in our bedroom and serving as a crutch not to cheat on me, which led to attempts to cheat.

Why Arguments With Friends Shouldn’t Be Battles

We’ve all been there – you’re hanging out with a close friend, discussing your different perspectives on something, and suddenly it devolves into an argument.

Maybe voices get raised, feathers get ruffled. At some point, it can start to feel like you’re fighting to “win” the argument instead of understand each other.

However, seeing disagreements with friends as competitions to be won is ultimately counterproductive and can damage the relationship.

Arguments don’t need to be battles. In fact, healthy disagreement and debate is normal and can even strengthen friendships – if handled with care.

cosmic microwave background

The CMB is a snapshot of the oldest light in the universe, imprinted on the sky when the universe was just a baby in cosmic terms.

It is essentially the afterglow radiation from the hot, dense state of the universe just 380,000 years after the Big Bang, a time known as the recombination era. At this point, the universe had cooled enough for protons and electrons to combine into neutral hydrogen atoms, allowing photons (light particles) to travel freely for the first time without being constantly scattered by charged particles.
