Why Do Grown Men Yell at the TV?

Why Do Grown Men Yell at the TV?

by James Robbins, M.A., LPC Things go wrong. It’s what things do. As a Dallas Cowboys fan, I am well aware of this. The Cowboys players and coaches are not available for me to yell at. My TV is. It’s human nature to assign blame when things go sideways. But despite all the “blame” I’ve… CONTINUE

Does Spanking Work?

by James Robbins, M.A., LPC 75% of Americans spank their children. But does it work? Before I answer this question, let me pose another. Suppose you’re going to buy a new TV. What do you do first?
