Article: If you're worried about your teen telling you the truth, it may be helpful to know the things teens lie about most often. You can't accuse your teen of lying about everything, but if you know what your teen is most likely to lie about, you can prevent future instances of that behavior. Some of the most common behaviors teens lie about include:  how teens spend their time what teens spend their allowance on seeing friends that their parents don't approve of which movies your teen sees and whom your teen goes with what types of clothing your teen wears outside the house drinking alcohol and/or doing drugs driving under the influence or riding in cars with a driver who was under the influence going to parties having adult supervision outside the house It's tough to know when your teen is lying, and any suspicions should be approached very cautiously. Being overly suspicious of your teen actually makes you statistically less likely to know what your teen is lying about. You may be more likely to recognize your teen is lying about something when you're suspicious, but you'll probably be wrong about what your teen lies about and why.  Accusing your teen of lying when he or she is actually telling the truth may make your teen less likely to be open and honest with you in the future. Try to evaluate your teen's behavior in the context of his or her past patterns of behavior. If your teen is getting into trouble (or has a history of doing so), that teen may be more likely to lie to you. Remember that no teen is lying about everything all the time. You may have your suspicions, but you need to recognize that your teen does tell the truth as well, and you need to be fair in your assessment of his/her honesty. Some parents may not be comfortable trying to catch their teens in a lie. However, if you have your suspicions and you want to put a stop to it, it may be worth considering checking out your teen's story. This can help establish a baseline of behavior so you'll know what to expect going forward.  If your teen claims to have spent the day at a friend's house, call that friend's parents and confirm that this is true. You may want to try quizzing your teen to see if he/she is telling the truth. Remember what your teen says, and ask follow-up questions later on to see if your teen sticks to the same story you were told earlier. With that said, it's important to recognize that trying to "trap" your teen in a lie will only discourage open and honest communication with you. Resist the urge to spy on your teen or go through his/her belongings. This can damage your teen's trust in you and set back your lines of communication. Whether you've caught your teen in a lie or you simply don't believe your teen's story, you should express this to your teen as calmly and directly as possible. Don't get mad, and don't accuse your teen of lying; instead, open a conversation about what your teen has told you.  Don't interrogate your teen. That will only make your teen more likely to lie to you again. Let your teen know that you don't entirely believe the story you're being told. Give your teen a way out. He/she may be willing to tell the truth if you offer some type of immunity from punishment. You can say something like, "We're reasonably sure that you're not telling us the truth. Are you sure you want to stick with your version of events, or is there something else you'd like to tell us?"

Article: You can use ice or a cold compress, but be sure to wrap it in a towel. Or, put a metal spoon in the freezer, and apply the back side of the spoon directly to the site of the hickey. Cold helps bruises by reducing swelling and slowing blood circulation. Apply the cold compress for 10 to 20 minutes at a time, several times each day.  For best results, use cold treatment in the first 24 to 48 hours after acquiring the bruise.  After icing for 10 to 20 minutes, remove the ice pack for at least 10 minutes before reapplying it as needed. Certain activities can cause bruises (including hickies) to swell, which may prolong the healing process. For the first 48 hours after you've gotten a hickey, avoid "traumatic" activities, including:  hot showers hot tubs heat packs drinking alcoholic beverages
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Choose a cold compress. Apply cold compress to the hickey. Prevent further trauma.
Article: Again, the number should match the number created for all previous rows. Make sure they stand upright while the previously created through loop lies perpendicular. Note that you should still have a through loop from your final row; you do not need to create a new one. Gather the through loop and finger loops together, then push them through the bar of the other buckle half.  The number of loops pushed beneath this buckle bar should match the number of loops wrapped around the bar of the first buckle half. The connected ends of these loops will stay to the outside of the bar, but the rounded loop ends must pass through completely. Create a loop from the working end of the paracord, making it roughly the same size as your previous through loops. Insert this loop through the finger loop ends sticking up from beneath the buckle bar. As you did for the body of the pattern, tighten the base loops around the through loop. Work from the outside in, tugging down on the back side of each loop to tighten the one before it. Repeat until all of the loops are snug. Each loop should lay flat at this point. Cut the paracord so that there is about 4 inches (10 cm) of excess. Pull that excess cord through the final loop to create a snug, secure knot. If you do not like the amount of paracord remaining after you knot the end, you can trim it down further. Leave at least 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) between the knot and the end, though. Hold the flame of a lighter over the raw, cut end of the paracord for several seconds. Pull it away once the cord end has melted down. An adequately melted end should prevent the paracord from fraying.

Create a final row of finger loops. Slide the final row through the other buckle half. Pass a final through loop over the buckle and through the finger loops. Tighten the loops. Trim and then knot the remaining paracord. Melt the finishing end.
