6、(虚拟的) violence your children are exposed to. It“s not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news. Keep your expectations for your children reasonable.

12、derable amount of unpacking: The box has to be taken out of the paper bag in which it arrived, the cellophane wrapper has to be torn off, the lid opened and the paper removed, the chocolate itself then has to be unwrapped from its own piece of paper. But this overuse of wrapping is not confined to l

13、uxuries. It is now becoming increasingly difficult to buy anything that is not done up in beautiful wrapping.
