How to deal with envy in children

Envy in children
If a child has a sibling, situations in which envy arises in the first child are pre-programmed. Envy is a member of our natural spectrum of emotions that is not pleasant, but also has its usefulness.

Envy does not only occur between siblings, but is particularly common among them. This is due to the fact that parents can never treat their children 100% equally, and in some situations this is not appropriate.

How suitable are small pets for children?

hamster
Many families have smaller pets, such as hamsters, rabbits and the like, which are desired and kept by the smallest family members.

This tendency, which has almost become a tradition, is hardly questioned any more, as it is assumed that the animals are doing well if they are given a place to sleep, food and a minimum of cleanliness and attention. Children learn how to handle and care for an animal, which is sufficient justification for certain things we expect pets to do.

In itself, this may be a good reason to get a pet, but a lack of knowledge or simply ignoring the habits of these animals often means that their lives are not quite as happy as they could or should be.

The keeping of these small animals is therefore often not really animal-friendly. Species-appropriate husbandry is automatically attributed to larger animals or zoo animals, but not always to the smallest of them.

We have all known for some time that certain foods have a higher nutritional value than others. But we are also slowly realising why certain ingredients and vegetables are healthier.

The topic of wholefood cuisine has been a buzzword for some time now and has attracted many interested parties who listen patiently when they are told to "eat less food that has already been stripped of its nutrients during production, eat lots of fruit and vegetables, etc.".

Is shopping on E-bay safe?

ebay
The internet auction platform e-bay has not only made a name for itself in recent years, but also runs very successfully all over the world. Buying and selling across borders and made simple is often worth a look and a price comparison.

Since e-bay also devised the payment service paypal, which has now even been given the status of a bank, international payment transactions have also been made so simple that, apart from the possibly high shipping costs, there is no longer any reason not to buy a product abroad.

Unfortunately, the success of e-bay has also attracted a host of fraudsters who try to lure money out of people's pockets by unfair to criminal means.

Bach Flower Therapy

Bach flowers
Dr. Edward Bach, the developer of Bach flower therapy, did not come from the German-speaking countries, as one might think from the name, but from England. He studied medicinal plants at the beginning of the 20th century and created a repertoire of flower essences that were helpful for various complaints.

Bach flower therapy helps especially with emotional complaints, on the psychological level, which can also lead to physical illnesses, the psychosomatic complaints.

 

Thus, flower therapy alleviates acute states of anxiety, panic, dejection, test anxiety or aggression.
