I hang up after few seconds of answering when I discover the call is about collecting donations or charity, and I consider these few seconds as a donation.

Charity is a gift to embolden Government corruption.

If 10% of the military budget goes to scientific research, it will be more than all the donations collected for scientific research and cancer research in the country.

Real charity is changing the government to a more human civilized one with a global and future conscious.

In the mean while, keep collecting pennies for patients if it makes you feel that you are kind.

Tips for parents:

Praise the effort not the result.

Say: great training instead of great performance.

Encourage failure.

Ask: how did you fail today and what did you learn about it?

Teach them to tell time and manage it. Put clocks in their rooms.

Schedule outdoor time.

Let them get bored …. please! Boredom is the precursor to creativity. Give them unstructured play time. Give them access to stuff that can play with and create things with…. like tapes and garbage bags and scrap paper.

Have family meetings! Teach them democracy and a way to participate in decision making.

Skills employers say that new graduates are lacking. Check them out. Yes google it.
