When Children Hate Their Parents

At some point in his or her child's life, every parent is the opposite of cool.

Hate and Forgiveness

Here's a post from OnSugar blog Rantings of a Single Girl. I have something to confess. I hate someone. I mean really, really, really hate someone. And I know we aren't supposed to hate people.

Running to Cure Asthma?

I LOVE running, but that wasn't always the case. As a kid, I always hated it. I played inside with my dolls to avoid those stupid tag games (I was always "it"). And don't even get me started on the mile run at school we'd sporadically do twice a year - I HATED running. In college, I developed asthma and now I have to take 2 kinds of medicine everyday - if I don't, I can't even carry on a Read more

Foods Kids Hate but Adults Love

Every child has a food that's an absolute no. It varies by kid; my niece loves everything from asparagus to calamari to brussels sprouts, but she'll turn her nose up at mushrooms every time, no matter how they're prepared. When I was growing up, I was a pretty adventurous eater, but I despised frozen peas — so much that I made up an elaborate story about them being my doll's favorite thing on Read more
