“Dear Mom”: A Letter From Your Baby Boomer Daughter on Mother’s Day
Dear Mom, You are the reason I am who I am.  I learned so much about being a mom from watching you.  As I’ve grown older, I’ve come to realize that oftentimes you were making it up as you went along, situation by situation, daughter by daughter.  There really is no “how to be a …

My Smartphone and Me: It’s Not Just Millennials Who Are Hooked
I admit that I, like many others today from Gen Z to Baby Boomers, am attached to my smartphone. I actually suffer some anxiety when I don't have it with me, or can't get to it when I hear it buzzing, alerting me of a notification or text message. The fact that I can do …

No Regrets About Being A Helicopter Parent
I'm far from being a parenting expert. I can only speak to my experiences raising three children, but I think helicopter parenting sometimes gets a bad rap. Of course, you shouldn't attend your adult child's job interview, or call his/her boss regarding a bad performance review! Ultimately we all want our children to grow up …

Civility And Courtesy Shouldn’t Be Optional. Our Children Are Watching.
Civility and courtesy, the outward expressions of human decency, are the proverbial glue that holds society together- qualities that are more important than ever in today's complex and changing world. Emily Post's Etiquette, 19th Edition I have been so disheartened by the lack of civility we are witnessing from the Oval Office these days. What …

Don’t Judge Me Because I Still Have An AOL Email Account
There's not much that screams "senior" or "technophobe" more loudly in the digital age than an AOL.com email address. You should see the looks I get when I give someone my AOL email address in 2017! I've even been asked on occasion if I have another email I'd prefer to use. Truth be told, I …
