The teen years are fraught with tension and intensity. As our kids with ADHD navigate the rocky road to adulthood, they inevitably hit potholes as they assume greater school responsibilities, figure out friendships, strive for independence, and plan for the future. This journey can and does impact many areas of life, including the parent-teenage relationship.
To protect and strengthen your relationship with your teen, begin by understanding their true needs and how to properly address them. Taking the time to see the world through their eyes can help you fortify your bonds and reinvigorate family relationships, even during the most unprecedented of times.
There’s a real-life McMansion on Long Island.
However, this mansion isn’t, as the term might suggest, a cheap, ostentatious house. Instead, it’s a 19th century mansion in New Hyde Park, New York, that has been turned into a McDonald’s restaurant.
The mansion – which has hardwood floors, a double staircase and the original portico – was recently even dubbed the most beautiful McDonald’s in the U.S. by Insider.
According to the outlet, the mansion was originally built in 1795 as a farmhouse for a man named Joseph Denton. However, in the 1860s, it was converted into a Georgian-style mansion, Atlas Obscura reported. Over the years, the mansion was reportedly repurposed as a funeral home and several restaurants.

TOP STORIES
In late 1943, Marine Corps Pvt.
Jacob Cruz was killed in action during the Pacific campaign in World War II. The ongoing fighting meant the 18-year-old from Boyle Heights would be buried in a temporary grave in the Tarawa atoll, where he and more than 1,000 other Marines and sailors died fighting
the Imperial Japanese Army.
Years later, the U.S. military admitted it couldn’t find his burial place. Cruz’s name was etched at the Courts of the Missing at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii.

His family tried to honor him for the rest of their lives. Cruz’s mother and two of his four siblings died without ever knowing where he was buried.

That’s kind of brilliant, and turning toilet water into a banana split is sweet revenge over fire served cold. But who is going to mind the buffers?
Newsom can’t admit we’re in a drought as the one screwup not his fault, could be the straw that broke the camel’s back if there’s a recall election, funny that.
Talking wildfires, you never know how its going to turn out. Last year was a disaster, while the year before was no big deal. This one has me worried as a friend was relating that the water content of Chamise in the medium climes in April was more what you would expect of in August in the midst of the 100 days of 100 degrees in the Central Valley, i.e. everything will be a tinderbox.
