Article: Your child will most likely be released on bail and you need to take the time to talk through everything with him. It might be painful and difficult, but it’s important that you confront the issue head on and try to work out a way forward together. How you react to the situation can have a big impact on how your child moves on. Try to talk as directly as possible about any underlying issues that may have contributed to criminal behaviour.  Say something like, "This is a serious situation, and I need you to explain to me how we got here." It’s important that he understands the seriousness of the situation. If your child finds it hard to talk to you about it, encourage him to talk to a trained counsellor. Sometimes people find it easier to explain their emotions and problems to a stranger. Being arrested is a difficult experience and your child will be feeling scared and uncertain, even if he doesn't appear to be. It's important that you find the right balance between ensuring he understands the seriousness of the situation and takes responsibility for his actions, and reassuring him that there is a way through this.  Explain that you will support him and help him to turn things around. Say something like, "You've messed up, but you can put it right and learn from the experience." Reassure him that you still love him, but explain how his actions are hurting you. If he comes to realise the impact of his actions on you, it might help him to change. It’s important that you take on your responsibilities as a parent and understand that non-custodial sentencing is to a significant extent reliant on the parents. You have to work together with your child to ensure that he sticks to whatever programme he has been assigned to. It could be a drugs treatment programme, a schedule of counselling appointments, or community service commitments.  All programmes will require active participation, and if he fails to attend he may be remanded in custody. Often the parent will be required to attend these programmes with her child, so it’s crucial that you work together to get through it. Try to think of it as a chance to correct mistakes before the consequences get too severe. As well as working to correct any criminal behaviour and seeking help for any drug or alcohol related problems, it’s important that your child learns about his rights when arrested by the police. For whatever reason, your child may be arrested again. Acting calmly and with a full knowledge of how to react can make a big difference. A repeat offence is generally much more serious than a first offence.  Make sure your child understands that he must request to speak to a lawyer before speaking to the police. He should understand that a police officer can act as if he has more information than he actually does. He must recognise that everything he says to the police can be used against him. Something that seems harmless at the time can look different in a court. As a rule, don’t talk to police before speaking with a lawyer.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Address the issue. Reassure him. Stay supportive and work together. Ensure your child knows his rights.
Article: This helps to set the scene for the game and provides the base for creating characters, conflicts, and remedies. Write a summary of the history, mythology, and culture of the world where your role-playing game (RPG) is set. This adds depth to your game and helps it to feel realistic.  For example, your game could be set in a big city in the year 2600 right after a war or in the middle of an uprising. This would provide a good base for creating your conflicts and objectives. Read the background story of the game out loud to all the players before playing the game. If there is specific information that the players need to know throughout the game, consider writing this on separate sheets of paper that the players can use for reference. The conflict could be a person, such as a villain, or an event, such as a natural disaster or viral disease. The conflict will help to provide the objective of the game. For example, if the conflict is a tsunami, the objective could be to get to higher ground. If you need inspiration, use history to give you ideas. Research wars, uprisings, disease outbreaks, and natural disasters. This helps the game to feel more realistic. Make a note on the map of the key cities and resource hubs. Don’t worry if you aren’t a Picasso prodigy, use simple shapes and annotations to create the map.  Consider drawing the map onto an A3 sheet of paper so that it is big enough for all the players to see easily. If you feel creative, consider drawing multiple maps. For example, the first map could be an overview of the country or continent and the second map could be a zoomed in view of the city where the players live. If the game has a battle arena, draw this onto the map. Most RPG games have a economic reward for winning a conflict or finding resources. This currency can be traded with other characters or with the game shop for items, level-ups, or services. If you feel creative, create physical currency that can be given to players.  Gold, silver, diamonds, coins, and lives are popular RPG currencies. Write down in the rule book how the currency will be earned and how it can be traded.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Write the background story of your game. Determine the main conflict in your RPG. Draw a map of the world where the game is set. Decide what currency you will use in your RPG.
Article: If you’re using brown paper lunch bags, tear or cut strips down the length of the bag, cutting off the bottoms so that you have one, smooth strip. If you’re using larger paper bags, make sure to cut your strips so that they are all about 8-10 inches. For best results, use about 1-inch sections of hair. Place your damp hair, or your hair with product, in the middle of the paper strip and fold one side of the strip over, so that your hair is sandwiched between the two sides. Then, slide the strip down to the bottom of the section of hair, so that you’ll be able to roll up the entire strand. This part can be a little tricky to master. Basically, you want to begin rolling your hair around the middle of the paper strip, where the two sides have overlapped. Practice rolling the hair around the folded paper strip until if feels secure. For African American hair, you may prefer to create twists in your hair, and then roll the twist around the paper strip as outlined above. To create the twist, split the section of hair into two parts, and wrap them around each other. Then, roll that twisted section with the paper. Once your hair is securely around the paper strip, slowly begin rolling it up the section. There should be two loose ends of paper sticking out on either side of the roll. Continue rolling until you’ve gone as high as you’d like the curl to go. You can go all the way to your scalp if you want volume in the roots, or you may leave a few inches of straighter hair at the top of your head. That’s completely up to you! Once you’ve rolled as much hair as you want to curl, you need to secure the paper strip. Do this by tying the two loose ends together. Make sure you create a secure knot that will hold your hair firmly in place while it dries. If you’re unable to form a knot with the two loose ends of paper, you may need to work with longer strips. Once you’ve finished the bottom section of hair, let down your top section. Repeat the same process until you’ve wrapped and tied every single piece of hair in a paper strip. When you’re finished, double check that all of your papers are securely knotted. The more paper curls you create, the better you’ll be at this technique.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Tear your paper bags into long strips. Wrap a strip of paper around your hair. Twist the hair around the paper. Roll the paper up the length of your hair. Tie the loose ends of paper. Do this for the rest of your hair.
