Every topic was thrown up for debate because there were three kids. DON'T MISS: The ultimate guide to becoming a master communicator and public speaker"When you're a little child, you want to debate even more, because you're always the forgotten child," she said.

To the Editor:Re “Social Media Platforms Need a Health Warning,” by Vivek H. Murthy, the U.S. surgeon general (Opinion guest essay, June 18):Dr. Murthy makes a compelling case for social media warning labels and offers parents sound suggestions for protecting their kids from toxic content. An entire generation of children is growing up watching their parents, older siblings and other family members glued to their phones, posting pictures, sharing memes, debating politics and doomscrolling day and night as life passes them by. Consistently modeling the behavior they’d like to see in their kids would circumvent even the most powerful algorithms and make parents the ultimate social media influencers. The writer is president and C.E.O. of the Family and Children’s Association.

But the impact of ancient DNA, which has revolutionized archaeology in Europe and higher latitudes, has been more limited in tropical areas because DNA degrades more easily in warm conditions.

But what if you paid extra for a window seat or extra legroom? There's a heated discussion doing the rounds on social media about when you should switch seats, and under what circumstances you should refuse. Proceed with cautionSome travelers have been sharing their experiences on social media, saying that caution should be exercised when someone asks to switch seats because people "don't always have the best intentions." Airlines offer options to choose seats in advance, so it's good practice for passengers to get in the habit of planning ahead. "From a glass of fizz, to extra pillows and blankets, or maybe some treats from a premium cabin if available."
