Candice Aiston replied to Janet Lansbury's discussion Do Time-Outs for Toddlers Work?"I've been against time-outs for a long time, but used them recently when my 3yo went through a hitting phase. It took two timeouts to break the habit. I am still against most uses of time-outs, but I think they can be effective when…"
Candice Aiston replied to Alexa Bond's discussion Other People's Kids"My daughter's cousin is like this. I would have a supply of something she likes on hand. Peanut butter and jelly is a good one.

Do you have an unhealthy relationship with money? Part 2: Money and your marriage
In the last post, we talked about your personal relationship with money. In this post, I want to talk about how unhealthy relationships with money can affect your marriage.
Coincidentally, on the same day as my last post, KATU's AM Northwest featured Spencer Sherman, author of The Cure for Money Madness. He discussed a lot of the things I discussed in the last post, but brought out some newpoints on commonly held beliefs that I hadn't thought of, such as, "I am my net worth," "I am… Continue

Do you have an unhealthy relationship with money? Part 1 - Healing your relationship with money.
I have realized in the past year or so that a lot of people have an unhealthy relationship with money (myself included). I have actively tried to "heal" my relationship with money, which may sound kind of woo-woo, but I've found that it has really improved my life a lot.
I think you can tell if you have an unhealthy relationship with money if any of the following ring true for you:

Tip of the week: Have you overlooked a small but crucial detail?
Have you double-checked whether your beneficiary designations on all of your accounts are up-to-date? This is a very common mistake that people make. My friend, a financial planner, recently told me a story about a client who just passed away, but hadn't updated any of his beneficiary designations. The listed beneficiary was an ex-girlfriend (from like, 4 girlfriends ago!) and his wife ended up being screwed. My friend said that he sees this a lot with old 401(K) accounts.
So, my tip… Continue

"This is happening across all income levels. It's even affecting successful business… Continue
