Summarize the following:
If you feel your resolve wavering, remember that no good will come out of staying in an unhealthy relationship. You'll only feel trapped and resentful if you stay. Someone who tries to manipulate you by threatening self-harm will eventually find other ways to manipulate you, too. Your boyfriend or girlfriend is putting you in a terrible emotional position by threatening suicide if you break up, but that doesn't make their actions your fault. Remind yourself that they are their own person. You can't control them or make decisions for them. If you are struggling with guilt after the breakup, it may be helpful to talk to a  counselor. After you end the relationship, move on and don't look back. Avoid getting back together with your ex, even if you miss them. Both of you need time and space to grieve the loss of the relationship, and dragging the breakup process out will only make healing more difficult for both of you.  You should remove them from your social media profiles. Ask mutual friends not to talk to you about your ex. If you need to communicate with your ex, choose one way that they can reach you, such as by text or by email. You do not have to go through this breakup alone. Reach out to friends and family members for help and support. Ask them if they are willing to talk with you when you are feeling down. If you have second thoughts, they can convince you that breaking up is for the best.

summary: Remind yourself why the breakup is necessary. Avoid holding yourself responsible for whatever the person does. Make the breakup final. Rely on your friends and family for support.

Floating row covers are basically tiny greenhouses made of plastic that cover an entire row. They let light, water, and air in, but they keep pests out.  When placing row covers, cover the edges with soil so that the beetles can't get underneath them and into your plants. Remove them when your plants start to flower so that pollinators can visit the blooms and pollinate your plants. Kaolin clay is a natural deterrent that creates a surface the beetles don't like. Mix 3 cups (0.71 L) of the powdered clay with 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water. Spray the clay on the plant, making sure to get both sides of the leaves and the stems.  This amount of spray will cover about 400 square feet (40 sq. m) of plants. Pick a cloudy day to spray so the water doesn't magnify the sun, burning the leaves. After a heavy rain, check to see if you need to reapply the mixture. Kaolin clay is even safe to spray on the cucumbers. Just wash it off before eating the vegetable. It's also good for other pests, such as grasshoppers, squash bugs, and other beetles so consider applying it to other plants. Eggplants, potatoes, and Brussels sprouts may benefit from being sprayed. If you've seen these beetles on your plants, they'll likely pop up in your garden next year, too. After you harvest your cucumbers, take away sites that these beetles would hide in over the winter, such as dense grass, and you'll end up with fewer next spring. Also clear away any leaves or other garden trash. Basically, you don't want to leave hiding places near the cucumbers for these beetles to hang out in.

summary: Add floating row covers to keep the beetles out. Spray kaolin clay on plants. Remove dense grass after you harvest cucumbers.

Adoption is a tough process for a mother as it results in the relinquishment of your child to another family. However, in some situations, completing an adoption can allow for your child to have the best life possible. Whether your pregnancy was unplanned or you do not have the financial means to care for a baby, consider an adoption if safe haven laws do not exist in your state. If you are concerned about the cost of an adoption, most (if not all) of your costs are paid for by the adoptive parents. This includes support costs, medical costs, and legal costs. If you think adoption would be a good option for you, or if you have more questions, contact a professional adoption agency. These professionals will help you understand the process, make plans, and fill out the required paperwork. There are multiple professional agencies in every state. Start by doing an online search for adoption agencies in your state. In addition, you can call your state's department of children's services to get more information. With your adoption professional by your side, work together to make an adequate adoption plan. Your professional will explain all of your options to you. For example, you might want to ask about open and closed adoptions. In an open adoption, you will have varying degrees of access to information about your child as he or she grows up. This might include physical contact, pictures, letters, or phone calls. In a closed adoption, you will not have any access to information about your child. These decisions can be made by you alone, but it is best to discuss these options with the adoptive family you choose. Ultimately, for the adoptive family to agree to the adoption, they will have to agree to your adoption plan. If you are still pregnant, your adoption plan might include labor plans, hospital plans, and ways to get help paying for the pregnancy (if the adoptive parents are not paying). These plans may also help you find food, housing, and maternity clothes while your pregnancy is happening. While many parents do not like to search for adoptive families, doing so can help ensure your baby will have a happy and healthy home. When you are working with an adoption agency, talk with them about what you are looking for in an adoptive family. The adoption agency will then send you information about possible adoptive families. Look through this information to learn about their careers, interests, parenting style, and other important information. A lot of adoption agencies require the adoptive parents to go through home studies and background checks before they will be eligible to adopt. Once you decide on a family, you can choose to meet them in-person or over the phone. This will give you an opportunity to get to know the family better and make sure it is a good fit. Make sure you address any concern you have before moving forward. Once you agree on an adoptive family, that family will file a court action to formalize the adoption. Once the action is brought, you will be asked to sign a consent form, which indicates your willingness to go through with the adoption. Return your consent form to the adoptive parents once it has been filled out. In most states, if consent has been given by the biological parents for the adoption, you will either not have to go to any court hearings. If you do, they will be very informal and the judge will simply want to make sure you know what rights you are giving up. Go to your court hearings, if you have any, and be prepared to express your willingness to go through with the adoption. Relinquishment papers finalize the adoption and relinquish most, if not all, of your parental rights to the adoptive parents. Adoption agencies often provide services for mothers after relinquishment papers have been signed. Because giving your child up for adoption can be tough, adoption agencies will often offer emotional support and classes to help you cope with your decision. Some agencies will help you get in contact with other mothers who have gone through adoptions themselves. Use these resources to help you get through the emotions of putting your child up for adoption.
summary: Decide if adoption is right for you. Call an adoption professional. Create an adoption plan. Find an adoptive family. Consent to the adoption in court papers. Go to any required court hearings. Sign relinquishment papers.
