WHAT IS YOUR PARENTING STYLE?
Post Views: 525 We all believe in disciplining our kids. But the disciplinary method is just one aspect of the parent-child relationship.

SIMPLE WAYS TO KEEP PIMPLES AWAY
Post Views: 470 One of the most common problems faced during puberty and teen years are PIMPLES or Acne as we medically call it. Acne affects about 80% of people from puberty to 25 years of age. During puberty, the human body produces hormones that are new to the system of both boys and girls. This hormonal influx then leads to the production of large quantities of sebum. Sebum is an oily secretion from the sebaceous glands that can clog the pores and form a pimple which may become infected and form a pustule.
