What is the purpose of making a will?

This is a question that is frequently asked. What exactly is the objective of making a will? What motivates us to do this?

Making a will is a very personal decision to make. It is not my responsibility to persuade someone that they should prepare a will. To be honest, I created a will because I believe it is a gesture of concern and affection for the individuals who would be left behind after I pass away. Other folks are motivated by different factors. Some of these reasons for making a will have already been discussed elsewhere on this site.

Rather of obsessing on my own opinions, I decided to check into what the experts had to say about the matter. It has been published by the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) what they consider to be the most important reasons to prepare a will. (more…)

A new parents guide to safe co-sleeping with baby

live4family April 29, 2022 0 Comments

One of the biggest concerns of new parents is their newborn’s sleep. While there are certain aspects that are unpredictable and out of anyone’s control, like how long will a baby sleep and what works best to induce sleep, where to place baby for sleep is totally within your control.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends keeping a newborn in the parents’ bedroom for the first six months, up to one year. This not only makes it easier for a parent to tend to baby, but it also keeps baby safer. Room sharing with your newborn decreases the incidents of SIDS by up to 50%.

Mediation that includes children

The majority of the time, when I asked clients who were contacting me for the first time if they knew what mediation was about, the response was “not really.” Now, I find that clients who approach me are aware of what mediation is and have either made an independent choice that it is the best course of action for them, or have been sent to mediation by a lawyer. However, little is known about kid inclusive mediation, which may be a very beneficial tool for parents as well as an empowering experience for their child or children if done properly and with care.

What is child-inclusive mediation and how does it work?

The possibility (and frequently the wisdom) for parents’ children to speak with the mediator while they are using mediation (and maybe even when they are not) to talk about what happens next for them and their child(ren), in light of their separation, exists. This gives the youngster the opportunity to have a say in what will happen next in the situation. (more…)

How to write a good resume?

live4family April 26, 2022 0 Comments

Without basic application documents, including CVs, today it is difficult to imagine how you can get a job. To stand out from the competition, it is worth taking your CV seriously. What elements should be included and what is better to omit in order to present yourself to a future employer in the best possible light? A few valuable tips can be found in the guide below.

First and foremost: Reliability

You need to put a lot of effort into writing a good resume. In a time when the most popular way to communicate with a company is electronically, a resume is the first (and in many cases the last) document an employer has to deal with. A competently written curriculum vitae is a pass to the further stages of the recruiting and interview process, where you can present yourself to the recruiter in all your glory.

As for chronology, the information should be presented in reverse order, that is, from the newest to the oldest. (more…)
