Are you being run by your children?
Article Abstract:
There is a great awareness in UK society of the need to protect and nurture children. Physical punishment is regarded negatively, and parents and teachers are very concerned about taking care not to damage children's self confidence. However, this atmosphere can place great pressure on family life, sometimes robbing parents of their self-esteem. They feel guilty about not being able to spend much time with their children, so buy them many gifts and fail to discipline them properly. Many believe that they have ineffective parenting skills.

The wrong side of the pearly gates
Article Abstract:
The majority of people who have a near-death experience report feelings of peace and calm, and believe that they have come close to entering Heaven. However, a few seem to experience hell instead. In these cases, people find that hell is made up of very vivid personal experiences and some archetypal hell-like images. Scientists dismiss all these experiences as being simply related to oxygen starvation to the brain.
