How do you deal with a child who will pee on themselves for the attention? I have a student who does this two-three times a week. I have never experienced his before, and not sure what to do.

Are you certain it’s attention? We had a few do this almost daily but it was because they didn’t want to miss out on play or activities.

I have a child that is 5 and going through a stressful transition at home. She has always craved “negative” attention but is now resorting to accidents to receive it since I constantly give her positive attention. Whenever I see that she’s had one I simply ask if she had an accident. When she says yes I show no emotion except calmness and compassion and ask her to go to the bathroom. I give her her clothes, she changes and I remind her how important it is to use the bathroom and that it takes longer to change then to stop what you’re doing and go pee. I give the situation (and her) minimal attention and show limited concern. It’s not fun if there’s no reaction and often times she will push for one and become upset when none is given. Show compassion but not investment in the behavior or behaviors that come with these incidents. Eventually the typical child will grow out of it

My confession is I have always had very competetive and hardworking close friends around me with whom I felt amazing to compete, do more and be the best. A few years back we all made to different countries, now I achieve far less than my potential and find it hard to be as efficient as before. How to fix this?

I try to guide them and say you want the $$$ cars but the salary you have won’t get there and you’re going to have to find a job that gets them the salary…. Then the fight starts.

My friend just got out of a relationship and hooked up with his ex's best friend a week later. They're now dating and seeing each other everyday.
I couldn't help but feel like this wasn't an appropriate thing to do for both parties. He also revealed that he cheated on his past exes.

I'm naturally feeling a bit weary of his character and questioning whether this is a friend I want to keep close in my life. Perhaps I'm being too judgmental?

Tired of of the same old boring tomato marinara sauce? Try a roasted red pepper cream sauce!

Red bell peppers are roasted in the oven until sweet. It is then blended with caramelized onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, sun dried tomato paste, and cream into a silky, smooth and velvety sauce. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
