    That is the problem now with parents. Just because they have the money they give their children gadgets instead of just letting them play with their classmates and friends.

    Yes, they can be given gadgets but when they become a bit adult , maybe when the child is already in college. He needs that so he can be easily contacted by the parents.…[Read more]

    Don’t other people’s comments because they say it to disappoint you and not continue shining. That’s because the don’t want to be outshined.

    Yes me too, I prefer to eat the fruits than juicing them. I can savor how good they taste and they exercise my jaw when eating them.

    Besides, eating the fruits instead of juicing them can save you on electric bill. he he he
