At the end of the day we still love them

Pick your poison: bicker, nag, or walk away

MIL and DIL strife

Racking our brains trying to figure out men

One of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to sharing a home with my boyfriend is having to also share my food. Sharing my bed? I am totally okay with. Sharing a Netflix account? Sure. Sharing my snack? That is where I draw the line. The problem, and I am sure anyone who has ever lived with a man before can back me up here, is that they rarely have self-control when it comes to food. If the food is around, they will probably eat it, no matter who it belongs to. Even if I make my boyfriend swear…

One of the most important parenting tips that I can give young parents is always to be a unanimous front in front of their children. Never fight in front of the kids, and never turn the kids against the other parent. You have to be together, or at least appear to be together when you are educating your kids, and only later, behind closed doors, talk about the disagreements you might have with one other. Otherwise, the only thing that the kids will learn is that they can get away with whatever t…

Hobbies are the secret to a well-rounded life. They are those activities that we make time for, not because we have to, but simply because we want to. Whether it's getting lost in a novel, tending to a garden, or chronic knitting, hobbies are a relaxing escape from the workweek.

This topic can singlehandedly end relationships, so to leave that topic out of the relationship can be a big mistake if you want it to work. Couples should talk openly and freely about anything that has to do with having kids – Do you want kids? How many? By what age? How important is it to you?

If you truly care for the person you are buying a gift for, choosing that gift should not be that hard. Sometimes, even when they don't fully mean it, people miss the whole point of gift-giving and completely fumble with their present, like t…

Yes, another story of Mother's Day gone wrong

In romantic relationships, it's important for each partner to be able to have their own friends and interests. And if they are interested in things you aren't, that's okay, as long as you are supportive of them. You can't forbid your partner from doing something completely harmless just because you don't like it. That is the perfect way to unnecessarily ruin a marriage, kind of like what this husband is facing right now. He took it to the internet because he's torn about his behavior. His wife,…
