Recently I was asked to do some SEO work for a web site focusing solely on social and emotional learning.

And I was a tad stumped by the home pages content. When I start a task like this, I look around for other keyword phrases, I read the sites content, and generally get familiar with the subject-matter.

I am forty now, and this sort of thing just wasn’t around when I was growing up (man, I sound so old), but I am so glad it is now. Growing up in London was pretty tough, and there were a lot of one parent families emerging from out of nowhere it would seem.

My parents were divorced when I was fifteen, and I am so pleased they did. Why should they be sad just to make mine and my sisters lives seemingly improved.

Lots of people tell me that they’ve stayed together for the sake of their kids, and this makes me so angry. What! Is your life at an end now? Is your happiness finished because you have a child with someone you no longer want to be with?

Kids are resilient, and strong, and can spot these things anyway, so why not sit down and have a chat with them. You may get a pleasant surprise, or you might not, but one thing is for sure…you’ll never know until you sort it out.

Life in general is too short, procrastination is an amazing device, and one that can suck time & life away from you without you even knowing it. Don’t let it.

Searching for various terms on this site, is what made me start thinking about these things, search terms like child behaviour specialists

Interesting stuff, and food for thought I guess, but then the web is supposed to be about thr passing of information, and not buying health supplements and small blue pills.

Or is that just my inbox?
