Almost one-fifth, 19%, of parents says their kid has no or not enough friends, according to recent data collected by the University of Michigan. "I think a lot of well-intentioned parents, that's where a lot of parents go too far." The more access your child has to kids their own age the more comfortable they'll be socializing with them. "Showing your kids how you help someone at the grocery story whose bag spilled ... these are small things parents can do.

The specific cruise ship you go on — and the room you're in — can determine what kind of time you have. Research your shipWhen you cruise, the ship is your hotel, your mode of transportation, your restaurants, and oftentimes, it provides professional entertainment, too. Your cruise ship isn't merely a way to get from point A to point B. If you can, avoid a noisy cabin right under the pool or on a deck right above or below the theater." Most cruise drink packages don't begin until you leave ports of call, so you can usually only get included drinks while you're sailing.
