Q: This might be the worst type of “compliment” there is. A backhanded compliment is one that sounds really nice at first, but then the real meaning of the statement hits. It’s a passive-aggressive way to really hurt a person’s feelings. It’s possible to deliver a backhanded compliment without even knowing you’re doing it.  For example, you might say something like, “Wow, I really like your hair today. What’s different?” By saying this, you’re implying that you don’t like the person’s hair very much on other days. Or you might say, “You’re amazing at baseball, for a girl.” Attaching a qualifier to the end of your compliment turns it into an insult. Yelling a “compliment” at someone walking down the street is actually highly insulting. The point of a compliment is to make someone feel good, and yelling about someone’s physical features is likely to do just the opposite. Even if some people say they like being cat called, not everyone does — not by a long shot. If you really want to make someone feel good, even a stranger, don’t yell something in passing. The same rules apply to giving compliments to a stranger and giving compliments to someone you know: you need to find something sincere to say and deliver your compliment respectfully. You probably already know what these are, and you’d probably never say them to someone. Even if you have a huge crush on someone and you want to ask her out — actually, especially if you want to ask someone out — don’t try to compliment someone on a sexual body part. It’s just rude, and in certain settings this type of comment can be construed as sexual harassment. Keep your compliments polite!
A: Avoid backhanded compliments. Don’t mistake a cat call for a compliment. Avoid demeaning comments.

Problem: Article: It is  important to discuss feelings with your toddler. Through your discussion of how they feel, they begin to learn words associated with those feelings and can later use those words to talk out their feelings. This will help them transition to talking about feelings instead of acting out their frustrations. You might say something like “I know you are sad that it is bedtime, but we can play with your toys again tomorrow.” It is important to observe how your children play and act out to understand their feelings. By watching and understanding your toddler’s feelings you can more effectively discuss them. You can also teach your toddler to express their feelings in more socially constructive ways. If your toddler is angry, you might say something like “I know that you are upset that the candy is gone, but you cannot hit people. Instead, you can show us you are upset by taking a deep breath and just telling us you are upset.” Toddlers need to understand what is expected of them. They will naturally push the boundaries, but if you set firm limits and give explanations for those limits, most toddlers will begin to respect the rules. This gives them the structure and boundaries they need to feel secure. Emphasize the positive aspects of rules with your toddler. For example, explain that the your child must get enough sleep tonight so that he or she can have more fun tomorrow. Babies do not interact very well with each other, but once children start to reach the toddler phase, they begin to socialize a bit with other kids. Encourage your toddler to make friends, and teach him or her how to do things like introduce him or herself. This is one of the early milestones in socializing your child. Do not be surprised if your toddler plays more “beside” the other children than they play “with” the other children. Parallel play is common in this stage.
Summary: Teach your toddler about feelings. Observe your toddler’s feelings. Discuss limits with your toddler. Encourage your toddler to make friends.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Either directly before or after warming, get out a pastry brush and apply melted butter to the tops of the rolls. This will help the rolls to retain some moisture and will also add taste to the final product. If you are concerned that the rolls will have a plain flavor, then select a number of fresh herbs. Chop them up finely. Sprinkle them on top of the rolls prior to baking. Some of the best herb options are oregano, rosemary, and sage. You can also choose herbs that will complement the rest of the meal. For example, if you are eating potatoes as well then dill might be a good option. The reheating process can leave some rolls tasting stale. To counteract this, get a pinch of sea salt and place it on top of each roll. This will add a bit of texture and flavor to the roll. It may also make it possible for the rolls to last longer after reheating.

SUMMARY: Brush them with butter. Drizzle with herbs. Add a pinch of salt.

Q: You and your ex will need to handle logistical details like canceling the venue rental, the entertainment, the flowers and décor, the cake and the honeymoon plans. Because of the strong emotional fallout after the wedding, you might ask family and close friends to assist you in handling these matters. Regardless, the burden for cancelling everything and retrieving deposits (if possible) should be shared by the would-be bride and groom. Once the wedding has been fully cancelled, you and your ex need to discuss what will happen to the engagement ring. This decision varies among couples. The general rule of thumb is whoever decided to call off the wedding didn’t hold up their end of the bargain, and therefore, doesn’t get the ring. One exception to this rule involves rings of extraordinary value or family heirlooms. In such cases, the ring should be returned to the family it belongs to. If your home is surrounded with reminders of your failed engagement and wedding (if not relationship), put them away - at least for the time being. Ask friends to help you toss out any wedding-related items such as invitations. Donate any wedding decor that could be used for other events, or try to resell them to recoup costs.  If the failed engagement also brings the end of the relationship (NOT necessarily!), then cutting the entire thing out of your life would be cutting a part of yourself out - rather, put it away so that it is out of sight, out of mind. You can take the fondest memories out when they no longer hurt & remember what good you had, after all, that is why you were together. In addition, go through your home and gather any reminders of your ex and your relationship. Return items belonging to your ex and box up everything else to be stored for a later date, donated or trashed. If you are still too emotional, see if friends and family can help you with this step.
A:
Delegate responsibility for handling logistical details. Decide what to do with the ring. Get rid of reminders.
