TrueCare.net Helps Parents Know When Their Children Are Being Bullied Online

Did you know that more than half of America’s teens are exposed to cyber bullying? Studies show this form of abuse is growing at a very fast pace. Cyber bullying includes rumors, threats, gossip and humiliation and happens through e-mail, websites, blogs, chat rooms, text and instant messaging, and videos. Cyber bullying statistics point to devastating effects on victims, such as bad grades, emotional stress, depression, poor self-esteem, sleep disorders, headaches, stomach pains and in some cases, suicide.

As your kids get ready to go back to school, now is the time to think about Internet safety and how to recognize the signs of cyber abuse. As you check off items on your child’s school supply list, you should also be thinking about how to protect your child from what can happen on the Internet.

“As technology advances and new forms of online social networking emerge, child safety on the Internet is of critical importance,” said David Barker, for TrueCare LLC — makers of Truecare.net — a social media monitoring service for parents. “We want parents to know that cyber bullying is very real, sometimes very subtle, and there are things you can do to help prevent it.”

Knowing the signs of cyber abuse is the first step. Here are 10 signs that your child might be a victim:

1. Your child becomes secretive about what they are doing online

2. Uses computers outside of home, such as at homes of friends, Internet cafes, or libraries

3. Has a sudden decline in homework or grades

4. Doesn’t feel well, complains of headaches, stomach aches, or nervousness

5. Is restless, has difficulty sleeping

6. Shows changes in behavior or has mood swings

7. Becomes withdrawn or displays low self-esteem

8. Does not want to go to school or socialize

9. Avoids telling you who their online friends are

10. No longer wants to use the computer or cell phone

TrueCare.net recommends that parents get involved and monitor their child’s online relationships, and that they set rules and limits for using the Internet and social networking sites, while reminding children that they trust them, but don’t trust the other people out there.

About TrueCare.net

TrueCare’s unique social media monitoring product was designed by parents as a way to effectively monitor their child’s online social networking activity without invading their child’s privacy. It is not easy to be a parent these days. The majority of teens now communicate via social networking sites. It is difficult to keep up with who your child is interacting with on these sites. TrueCare automatically tracks your child’s social networking sites — MySpace, Facebook and Twitter — for inappropriate content and sends you an e-mail alert in real-time when it finds something concerning.

If you are an employee it helps to identify a bad work experience early on before you are stuck there for years. If you are a manager it is good to review these three areas so you can spot these signs in your own groups and improve your teams. For both employees and employers it is good to know the major causes of dissatisfaction at work.

Keep in mind no company is 100% perfect and almost everyone will be able to connect with one or two of these workplace ailments, however if you see more than a few of these problems in your job then it may be time to consider that your company is not a happy place to work and could use some improvement.

3 Causes:

1. Your company – Is the entire company dysfunctional and a bad place to work?

Many companies create a work environment that makes being there eight hours a day (or more in many cases) an undignified experience. This could be the actual physical environment or this could mean the people in the company from the executive management team all the way down seem to be filled with jerks and shady characters.

*Employees fight against each other – The atmosphere of some companies feel like a dystopian wasteland where the motto is everyone for themselves. It is difficult to get help from other employees and departments, or even worse they actively try to sabotage your projects to make you look bad. This makes for a very stressful environment. Employees who get along with each other, help each other, and act like a supportive team generally function like one as well.

*No one gets promoted – Are you waiting for your manager to die so that you have a chance at promotion? Some companies are just not built to allow regular promotions. Maybe there is little growth or the bridge between job titles is too great. In these cases management needs to make up for the lack of real promotions with increased salary and additional numbers behind your job title. Even if there is no direct path from flight attendant to pilot, there should be a clear path to flight attendant level II and senior flight attendant. The company must provide a chance for growth, increased skills, learning programs, and regular salary increases above inflation adjustments. *Responsibilities are increased without the corresponding increase in authority – If your company is expecting you to perform ever increasing tasks and lead projects and programs there needs to be a publicly known increase in authority that gives you the ability to accomplish these tasks. This should be done in the form of a new job title or a public announcement stating you are in charge of certain aspects of a program. This allows people to know that you are not just being nosey and bossy, but are doing your job. *The skilled are not promoted – Often managers and entire companies reward friends or those who are most visible in the company over the most skilled and reasonable person for the job. This could be due to nepotism or it could be due to the skilled person being the only one who can perform a certain job and promoting them would move them away from the current job. *High turnover rate – Constant reorganization is tough on employees rather it is caused by layoffs, firings, or a lack of loyalty toward the company or employees. It constantly changes work requirements, causes a loss of friends and security, and removes experts who are most knowledgeable about their roles. High turnover rate is both a sign and a cause of a bad workplace. *No respect for employees – Employees are treated like property with no interest in their needs. They are never asked for their opinion, and never kept up to date on company direction. They are given no privacy, no independence, and are without the tools they need to perform at their best. Finally they are used up and spit out once they are no longer of value.

*Appearance more important than results – Companies often choose to measure work hours, meeting attendance, or the appearance that work is being done even if creating that appearance takes away from actual productivity. These things often correspond with results, but it is the actual progress that matters in the end and results are what need to be counted. Sometimes a unique and unstructured workplace can birth the greatest creativity. Companies need to be mindful that one size does not fit all. *No time off – Vacation is made available and advertised on job descriptions but cannot be used since everyone is too busy or taking vacation is frowned upon and seen as being lazy. Vacation accumulates and is lost. Employees lose their personal life and become burnt out.

*Payment is late or skipped – company is not fiscally solvent enough or responsible enough to pay employees what was promised. Checks are late or missing. If this happens once due to some mistake it may be forgivable. If it happens often then the company is stealing from you and not worth your time.

*No one ever gets fired – A bad coworker can bring everyone down. Maybe others are forced to do their job, or they cause hostility or lack of fluidity in the group. Whatever the case the management team needs to have the backbone to stand up to these people and not let them harm the rest of the group.

*Employees can’t tie what they do to the success of the company – Employees need to feel they are part of a bigger project and how their roles are important to the success of the company. The management team needs to keep them informed on company projects and how they are helping and share celebrations with them when goals are met.

2. Your manager – As a leader and a person

Managers set the tone and call the shots for the group and can make your work-life pleasant or crush your spirit. Managers are usually a key component to rather or not a person is happy at work. Good bosses are positive leaders for a department, insightful sources of experience, ambassadors to other departments, and they fight for their team during meetings with upper management. Bad bosses create a pocket of terror in an otherwise good company and tend to block progress more than help it along.

Here are a few common characteristics of a bad boss:

*Everything is top priority – Some managers are very good at creating artificial stress in their department by inflating the urgency of every project. A good manager knows that their employees need a break and save the red alert situations for real emergencies.

*Promising the world to upper management – Weak bosses cannot say no to upper management and pass on every request to their employees even if it is impossible. These bosses rarely provide good leadership. Other departments and even employees in their group take advantage of them. We also see this with managers who are more interested in promoted their own career over the needs of the group they lead. If their employees work long hours to complete every project that is asked it looks good for the manager and cost them little time to say yes.

*Boss is overemotional and egotistic – Many bosses seem to confuse yelling and being a strong leader. Often loss of emotional control is used to hide a manager’s lack of real skill. Some schools of management seem to promote harsh words and threats as a way to motivate employees.

*Manipulates situations to take advantage of you – During slow job markets many bosses take advantage of the situation by cutting pay raises to their employees, increasing work hours and generally rolling back promises made to employees. They know there are not a lot of other jobs available due to economic situations or realities of your type of industry. Bad managers use this to their advantage and forget you are a real person and not a commodity.

*Doesn’t give positive feedback or guidance for improvement – Good managers give timely and regular feedback. They frequently and publicly praise employees’ work when it is good and give private feedback on how to improve when it needs improvement. Managers should not wait for yearly reviews to state progress or blow up at employees when things have been going downhill for months. Employees should know their role and have expected, required tasks that are achievable. Goals should not be constantly changing. Feedback should be given as goals progress. Finally, if employees work long hours for extended periods of time there needs to be reciprocal signs of appreciation from the management team to make sure the team feels appreciated and rewarded.

*Your boss hates you – A bad boss may not be able to get over perceived differences with you. Maybe they think you have different political beliefs or a different work style than they have. They may allow this to cloud your work relationship and cause them to constantly be negative toward you. Good bosses don’t get stuck on these differences and instead can work with a wide array of personality types. They work well with the entire team and take an interest in each person individually. This allows the boss to know the strengths and weaknesses of each person in the team and know how to motivate them and get the best results from each individual. One person may not work well with constant supervision, but with a little room they may end up being the strongest employee in the team. Building these relationships also creates camaraderie with the team and can avoid situations where employees appear to lose interest in their work or snap unexpectedly.

*Micromanaging – Bosses who don’t trust their employees will spend most of their time (and yours) checking your progress and questioning how you choose to attack a problem. This is fine for new employees or employees who work best if they have constant supervision, but if your manager doesn’t recognize your worth and intelligence after 15 years on the job then it can feel demeaning. This is made even worse if the boss is incompetent and knows less than you do but still insists to look over your shoulder and comment on every action. Managers need to let skilled employees do their job and give them room. They should value their opinions and allow them to bring questions and concerns to the boss when they have them.

*Not around enough – If you boss is never available to be a leader then we have the opposite extreme of micromanagement. Managers are put in place for a purpose and if they do not guide the team, then someone else will. This can cause the members of the team to have to perform the role of the manager without any of the authority. They will not have the connections with upper management and will miss out on the guidance, direction, and experience a good manager would provide. This can cause bickering between group members and force employees to go around the usual chain of command to get things done.

3. Your role – What do you want to get out your job versus what you are actually getting Maybe there is nothing inherently wrong with the company, but it is just not the best place for you.

*Not what you expected – If you went into your current position with a salary expectation and you ended up getting paid significantly less, that salary gap is going to eat at you. You may be happy performing a job for free if that is what you set out to do, but if you are not getting paid what you believe you are worth then your salary goals will keep you from being happy at that job.

*You have no interest in what your company does – There is something to be said of being proud of what you do and where you work. If you believe chewing gum is destroying the lives of children then you are not going to be inspired to work harder at a chewing gum factory. If you hate what your company does or are even apathetic to its goals then your only motivation for working there is the money. You will have no enthusiasm and will not care about anything but your paycheck. If the money itself is not so good, then your motivation for the job will be minimal at best. Alternatively if you believe the products or services your company produces are really great or are helping benefit the world, then you will have extra incentive to go to work every day.

*You work hard, but have no rewards or successes – In a school setting this is called busy work. You work hard each day but nothing of value is ever produced. You never get to celebrate the launch of a new product or start to work on new exciting projects. Every day is the same meaningless assembly line style tasks. No matter how hard you work there is no difference in your level of success and you never get to see the fruits of your labor.

*You are not doing what you love – You spend a lot of time at work every day. Are you doing what you love or even what you are good at? Is this a creative outlet for your talents and passions or does it just pay the bills.

Flip these attributes for a good company that is healthy, productive, focused and driven.

Dry skin is perhaps one of the most common skin problems today, which is why a discussion on dry skin therapy is more important than ever. Dry skin needs to be taken care of and treated to avoid further complications in the future. Dry skin, as many of you might know, could lead to a lot of further skin related problems. Let us take a detailed look at dry skin and how to treat this skin condition.

Dry skin is usually caused by a number of factors which include the weather and most importantly, genetics. The first one simply calls for a good habit of countering the drying effects of extreme weather with adequate natural skin care treatment plan that just involves aloe vera creams. Aloe vera is a very effective but gentle moisturizing treatment. Lavender oil also does the same moisturizing effect. Add tea tree oil to your bath water to provide relief.

Dry skin treatments powerful in effectiveness normally contain herbs. Using the right herbs is the answer to having healthy blemish free skin.Dry skin can have several reasons for happening. Lack of proper hydration, poor diet, low air humidity, excessive use of artificial heating, and the use of drying skincare products are the primary causes.

Women who have dry skin sometimes feel difficult to find the right care for their skin. In fact, there are some things that make women get dry skin such as high pressured lifestyle, anxiety and ages. Besides them, the environments are also the causes why most women get dry skin.

If you are looking for a dry skin remedy, look no farther than your kitchen pantry. You can make a dry skin natural remedy just by combining common foods and applying them to the skin. Some foods act as an internal remedy for dry skin as well. Some of the ingredients that can be used in a home remedy for extremely dry skin are honey, yogurt, olive oil, and oatmeal. Some herb teas are useful, too, as are a variety of other fruits and seeds.

Angular cheilitis is a common skin condition that plagues many people with its discomfort and pain. But you do not really understand the pain completely until you have experienced it first hand. The dry cracked skin can prevent you from enjoying your favorite snacks. Things like hot beverages can really take a toll on those open wounds. All they usually do is end up making things worse. But thankfully there are things that you can start doing that will help you get rid of that pain.

To get rid of this problem in the first place, it is important to understand what causes dry skin (that is why you have dry skin) to occur. Usually, different factors like side effects from medication, bad lifestyle habits (e.g smoking), inadequate nutrition, environmental factors and advanced age are common explanations as to why one would have dry skin.

Other causes for dry skin are often extreme climatic conditions, wind, and sunburn. The outer layer of the skin has an oily layer that is sometimes not retained properly because of these conditions. Also, the body is unable to produce the requisite amount of water and oil as is needed by the body. This causes the skin to dry and look dull, flaky, and lifeless. It is advised to use a humidifier while staying in a room with a heater for a long time.

Skip the Bath Oils. Yes, bath oils may smell nice and seem like a good idea, but in fact, the opposite is true (well, except for the smelling nice part). When it comes to your skin, bath oils are not going to moisturize and instead make you want to soak for even longer than usual. We have already established the No Soak Rule.

Cold weather is notorious for causing dry skin that often leads to flakiness and itchiness. The best solution is often to be the application of skin creams that moisturizes and returns the needed water back to the skin. Precautions like not taking extremely hot showers will also help prevent or alleviate the symptoms. Hot water will break down the natural lipids on your skin that locks in moisture. When this happens, the moisture in your skin will evaporate leaving your skin stripped and dry. If you really need to take hot showers, try to reduce the temperature or just use lukewarm water if possible.

If you’re wondering why certain dry skin treatments aren’t working for you, it might be because you’re addressing the wrong cause. Dry skin has many different causes, and as a consequence has many different treatments. It is important to know what exactly causes your dry skin in order to know the best solution.

Dry skin is caused by three major factors: (1) environment, (2) neglect, and (3) medical conditions.

A lot of people have dry and dead skin, and others will suffer from it on and off in their lifetime, that is why most of the skin care lotions will target this type of skin type. As you’re looking around in the store you’ll find that most of the good creams for dry or dead skin will contain glycolic acid in them. The acid is so great at treating dead skin it is becoming one of the most popular treatments in use today. The acid gets absorbed deep into your skin and goes to work at helping your blood flow under the skin, which will stop the dead and dry skin cycle almost completely.

Essential oils such as lavender, primrose and tea tree are beneficial for people with dry skin. These can be used in a facial sauna or ingredients in a skin care product regime. Drinking plenty of water keeps the skin hydrated and teas made from fennel, calendula, borage or coltsfoot help to improve the condition of your dry skin.

Most dry and dead skin is caused by a lack of blood flow into that area in your skin, the acid helps increase the blood flow and will help produce new fresh skin in that area. If the skin is dry due to external conditions, ensuring to take a few precautions can rectify the condition. In the case of a heating system being constantly used at home, it is wise to use a humidifier. Avoid excessive sweating and scratchy clothes as these might case the dry skin to itch.

Dry skin can also be itchy and become very sensitive, resulting in eczema and dermatitis. The prevention of excessive loss of moisture to prevent dry skin is important to prevent further complication of dry skin.

One important remedy that can easily be followed is to drink lots of water. At least two quarts of water have to be taken in per day if the skin is dry. This prevents the skin from dehydrating. The other option would be to take in lots of food containing vitamins A and B.

Do you think that only lean and slim girls have a right to party? If yes, then it’s a time to get a reality check and give a new perception to your thinking. Every woman is born beautiful and has a right to party equally as the ones having model like figure. All you need to have is a right attitude. So, if you have any qualms about, what you can wear to a club and look sexy, then read ahead and know the 7 basic tips.

· Be realistic:

Let’s get practical. Every woman knows her body type and even her problem areas where she ahs bulk flab. So, if you are size 10, then don’t try to get adjusted in size 8 as it will make you appear wannabe to the rest of the crowd. Don’t be embarrassed if you are bit over-sized instead wear something, which flows when you move a little. Flowery patterns are a big NO. Its better that you go for a sexy silk linen or lacey dress that can make you look leaner and sexy.

· Choose a comfortable as well as stylish lingerie:

You may be wearing the sexiest outfit for clubbing, but if you have teamed up your dress with a wrong pair of lingerie then it can prove disastrous. Many girls keep on fixing the straps of their bra that makes a cheap scene to witness. If you don’t have perky bust then avoid wearing nipple covers. It’s better to wear a strapless bra and if you are scared of the idea of your bra falling down, then just wear a transparent bra of perfect shape and size. Lingerie gives the dress a form fitting.

· Panty lines are a fashion faux pass

Remember, you have to look sexy not slutty. Sexy doesn’t stand for baring it all and just skin show. Leave something for imagination as well. Wear a low cut dress or top but then pair it with a sexy skirt that is not too fitted. See-through dresses that make your panty lines prominent will make you look like a playgirl.

· Become a head turner with the right set of heels:

Don’t even think of wearing flats. As a total fashion disaster, flats make you look fleshy as well as plump. Go for the sexiest stiletto that you have in your wardrobe. Even if the color of your stilettos is in contrast with the dress, it’s really okay. High heels make you look slender as well as glamorous.

· Give prominence to your best feature: So, you better know your best feature and the slightly bad one. If you sexy legs then flaunt them by wearing a short dress or a short skirt and if you have beguiling and mesmeric eyes then do a lot of make up on them by putting up mascara, kajal, etc. This is the best way by which you can actually make yourself a style diva i.e. by highlighting your best feature.

· Accessorize your dress:

Belts, scarfs, rings, earrings, etc, accessorize your dress aptly but don’t overdo it. Just wear those pieces of ornaments which are requisite and give a stunning look. Don’t wear everything like it is the only and the last chance when you are going out for clubbing.

· Be in sync with the latest fashion trends:

Get yourself updated with the latest fashion trends and wear what is in fashion. There may be many dresses which you must have purchased earlier but it doesn’t mean that you will have to stick to them only. Shop for some fashionable and trendy dresses and avoid imitating any body. Have your own style sense.

Apart from these seven tips, one advice that is actually essential to b followed is wearing a sexy fragrance. It means you just don’t have to look sexy but smell sexy as well. So, stay cool, relaxed and comfortable while clubbing and you can surely have a goodtime.

Upcoming Graphic Tee collection will feature winning designs from the ‘Every Tee Tells A Story’ contest

Kids love to express their individuality and moms think it’s important too. Sixty-five percent of moms said it was important for a child’s wardrobe to reflect their personality in the 2010 Back-to-School Survey by Parents magazine and Lands’ End. This back-to-school season, Lands’ End is giving kids the ultimate chance to express themselves while supporting school art programs with the “Every Tee Tells A Story” contest.

Beginning July 28 through Sept. 7, Lands’ End invites kids ages 4 to 11 to submit drawings based on the theme of “Arctic Exploration” for a chance to have their design featured in the next Lands’ End Graphic Tee collection. For every entry received, Lands’ End will donate $1 to fund art-related classroom projects at public schools throughout the nation via its partnership with DonorsChoose.org – up to $10,000.

“Clothing is a fun way for kids to showcase their unique style. We know the best way to find out what kids want to wear is to ask them,” said Liz Pierce, senior design director, Lands’ End. “Whether trekking through icebergs or frolicking with penguins, we’re excited to let kids show off their creativity with a t-shirt design.”

Winning Designs Receive Funding for Art Programs

In addition to having their design featured on a Lands’ End Graphic Tee, the boy and girl who submit the winning drawing will receive a $500 Lands’ End Gift Card and a $1,000 donation to their school art program. Select entries will be available for viewing in an online gallery at www.landsend.com/thehub.

To enter the “Every Tee Tells A Story” contest, download the drawing template and official entry form from www.landsend.com/thehub. All submissions must be postmarked by Sept. 7, 2010, and mailed to Lands’ End with the completed entry form signed by a parent or guardian. Winners will be notified on or around September 15, 2010.
