Wright said parentified children might have had to fulfill logistical adult responsibilities, such as looking after their younger siblings while their parents are nowhere to be found. AdvertisementReactive or emotional parents lack emotional-regulation skills, interpersonal-communication skills, and sometimes even the ability to set themselves and their children up for success. Wright shared signs you were parentified as a child and how it might impact you as an adult. You struggle with setting boundariesOne of the biggest side effects of being parentified as a child is struggling to set boundaries as an adult. Parentified children may be less likely to ask for raises, push back on unfair treatment, or pursue what they truly want because other people's opinions influence them too easily.

The Ram Mandir's opening Monday would fulfill a decadeslong Hindu nationalist pledge that is expected to resonate with voters during the upcoming national election expected in April or May. The narrow roads have given way to four-lane pilgrim route, including the newly developed 13-kilometer (8-mile) Ram Path leading to the temple. At least two head priests from a Hindu sect have refused to go the opening ceremony, saying consecrating an unfinished temple goes against Hindu scriptures. And volunteers from Modi’s party and other Hindu nationalist groups are going door to door, distributing religious flags and pamphlets. Many others shared Bhatia's feelings about the temple's opening.

☆ Workplace Wellness Programs Have Little Benefit, Study Finds
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-15 | by ( Ellen Barry | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Employee mental health services have become a billion-dollar industry. New hires, once they have found the restrooms and enrolled in 401(k) plans, are presented with a panoply of digital wellness solutions, mindfulness seminars, massage classes, resilience workshops, coaching sessions and sleep apps. These programs are a point of pride for forward-thinking human resource departments, evidence that employers care about their workers. Across the study’s large population, none of the other offerings — apps, coaching, relaxation classes, courses in time management or financial health — had any positive effect. Trainings on resilience and stress management actually appeared to have a negative effect.

But a bipartisan coalition of gun-safety advocates, some of them people who a year ago could not have imagined spending their days at the Capitol, were doing far more than paying attention. Here in Tennessee, firearms are the leading cause of death in children, and these voters are determined to do something about that. Poll after poll and referendum after referendum make it clear that Republican legislators are out of step with their own voters on a host of topics. They want to limit who can speak and for how long on the House floor. They want to control which Tennesseans can sit in the House gallery to monitor — and possibly protest — legislative proceedings.

In a rapid-fire presentation on a range of issues, Ramaswamy wowed many GOP audiences by seamlessly mixing his biography and detailed policy positions with conservative talking points. He questioned the government’s account of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and called for firing 75% of the federal workforce. Yet alongside the bravado, Ramaswamy often ignored contradictory details, and his confidence sometimes brought him trouble.

FOR ANYONE RAISED in or around Atlanta, Martin Luther King Jr. is first and foremost associated with the city where he was born and raised. We Atlantans take pride in the fact that Dr. King grew up on Auburn Avenue, the downtown thoroughfare cutting through the neighborhood of Sweet Auburn. On my travels throughout the South, I’ve seen traces of King everywhere—on street signs and in civil rights museums—but it’s been many years since I’ve followed his footsteps in my own city. So on a recent winter day, I went looking for the roots of King’s legacy in an integral part of Black Atlanta.

Cons: As is the case in Mexico and other countries with large expat communities, there’s growing backlash against the influx of foreigners, especially Americans, and especially in Lisbon.
