With the prices of dog boarding/dog sitting, it's another added stress when you're thinking of going out of town (or maybe you just need a break from being a parent). Some of the more affordable dog sitters are questionable and - let's face it - sometimes it's hard just leaving your dog with stranger(s).

It happens to even the best of families. Seemingly perfect families with loving parents are shocked when they learn their child is suicidal. It's a scary time for everyone! Often the ones who get the least support are the parents. I know because my 18 year-old step son, who was adored as being the "perfect child" by his parents, tried to end his life recently. It was devastating for us all. Fortunately we were able to get our son help but us parents could use some TLC too. This group is about pr …
