brightside--2020-04-02--Why More and More Women Have Stopped Shaving Nowadays

Why More and More Women Have Stopped Shaving Nowadays About 85 % of women in the US may be removing their hair regularly or even on a daily basis .
The idea of shaving isn ’ t new , since women in ancient Egypt and Rome might have been already removing their body hair and considered keeping it uncivilized .
But the times have changed and many women nowadays have decided to ditch shaving and keep their natural look .
Women see it as their way of accepting their bodies and an act of self-love .
Beauty standards and society @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they look , and having body hair is a part of this .
But some women have decided to put their own interests first and choose what ’ s best for their bodies , regardless of what other people expect from them .
And it ’ s not about judging people who prefer to shave , but about your body and making decisions for yourself .
• I stopped shaving probably about a year ago .
I just decided to stop caring about what other people thought about my body hair , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Plus , I get a lot of ingrown hairs and have sensitive skin , so not shaving makes me physically more comfortable .
@ Queerandcurious / reddit • I started shaving my legs when I was 14 .
I ’ m in New Zealand and it ’ s warm here .
I ride a bike everywhere and wearing jeans while you ride your bike is fine in the winter , but it ’ s horrendous in summer .
So I decided that I ’ m wearing shorts from now on .
Humans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And while I still have over 20 years ’ worth of social conditioning that tells me that shaved legs look better ... for sure , they don ’ t look good enough to be worth all the trouble .
@ unknown / reddit Dealing with body hair can be pretty overwhelming since women have to find time in their schedules to remove their hair in the right way to avoid any irritation .
They also have to worry about keeping their skin smooth , since hair can grow back pretty fast .
And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ products like razors , shaving creams , exfoliators , and moisturizers that women have to use to get the best results and protect their skin from the damage that shaving may cause .
• I stopped shaving to give myself more time for actual productive things , like focusing on my career .
I actually timed every time I shaved for an entire month and it totaled out to 8 hours .
@ Poopoopeepeeworm / reddit Some people think that shaving your hair reduces your body odor , but this turned out to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from your armpits helps the deodorant to get absorbed by the skin better , while hair might create a barrier that may prevent it .
But this barrier also prevents the skin from getting damaged by friction .
And while everybody ’ s body is different , for some women , not shaving brings more benefits than disadvantages : • I tried shaving my armpits in high school .
It was fine in the winter , but I hated that slimy feeling in the summer when I sweated with no hair buffer .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ my second winter of not shaving , and I think it ’ s actually less smelly than being hairless .
I definitely prefer it to having to shave every other day for fear of stubble .
@ BigBoud / reddit Women may have more important things to do .
Some women fight against these imposed beauty standards and are trying to show that we all are allowed to not have to hide our natural beauty .
They want to prove that they themselves get to make the decisions about their bodies , have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” and feel good about themselves without pressure from society .
• I stopped shaving because body hair is natural .
I decided I wanted to stop doing it just to please others .
The history of shaving is pretty misogynistic too .
@ radicalchanges / reddit • Last year , I stopped shaving my armpits .
At first , it felt like a badass statement .
I felt free , brave , and a little bit embarrassed when in public .
Ironically , I feel a lot more feminine and confident now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
I can still put a red dress and lipstick and feel sexy .
My armpit hair doesn ’ t change that .
I feel like it gives a nice contrast to my sometimes very feminine style .
I feel like I don ’ t have to please anyone anymore .
@ unnuka / reddit Women are tired of dealing with skin irritation .
Although shaving is painless in comparison with other ways of hair removal like waxing , many women still have to deal with unpleasant consequences .
Razor burn and razor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cause a red rash , tenderness , and skin inflammation .
And since most women remove their hair pretty often , they have to deal with the side effects of this procedure on a regular basis .
• I stopped shaving because of skin irritation mostly .
Most of my body can ’ t be shaved more than once a week without getting red and bumpy , but my hair is highly visible after about a day .
I shave my legs once a week , only in the summer , and trim @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be irritating .
And its biggest impact on my life is that I ’ m not in constant pain across 80 % of my body anymore .
@ betsybraddock / reddit • I ’ ve always had bad experiences with shaving and waxing .
I got horrible redness , sensitivity , ingrown hairs , razor bumps , rashes , and burns , and most people in my life knew that , so most didn ’ t comment when I stopped .
I do however get looks sometimes if I wear shorts and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ / reddit Some women just don ’ t mind having hair on their bodies .
For many women , having hair on their bodies doesn ’ t cause any problems in their lives and they may not even notice it .
They don ’ t understand why they should spend their resources to get rid of something that ’ s natural just to try to please everybody else and forget about their own comfort .
• I never saw the point .
I was fully comfortable unshaven , but I was always meant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ uncomfortable .
Why should I irritate my skin and get itchy a few days later when it grows back ?
Why should I accommodate people who don ’ t even know my name ?
I ’ m a lot more comfortable not having to worry about doing something that ’ s useless to me , just because I am expected to .
@ Gluebluehue / reddit • Shaving is a pain that I don ’ t feel the need to take part in , except for when I personally want to .
I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but ultimately I just don ’ t care anymore .
We ’ re all ( with some exceptions ) born with body hair , where our bodies wanted it to grow .
@ arnber420 / reddit Everybody is unique and the speed of the hair growth may vary from person to person .
Shaving only helps get rid of the hair itself , without damaging the hair follicle , so this process doesn ’ t interfere with hair growth and you may see the first noticeable hair growing back pretty quickly , like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in mind that hair on different parts of our bodies has different growing cycles .
That ’ s why you may notice that some parts of your body may get hairy faster than others .

About 85% of women in the US may be removing their hair regularly or even on a daily basis. The idea of shaving isn’t new, since women in ancient Egypt and Rome might have been already removing their body hair and considered keeping it uncivilized. But the times have changed and many women nowadays have decided to ditch shaving and keep their natural look.
We at Bright Side got curious about this current trend and decided to shed some light on the reasons why some women aren’t bothering to remove their body hair anymore.
Women see it as their way of accepting their bodies and an act of self-love.
Beauty standards and society may make women self-conscious about the way they look, and having body hair is a part of this. But some women have decided to put their own interests first and choose what’s best for their bodies, regardless of what other people expect from them. And it’s not about judging people who prefer to shave, but about your body and making decisions for yourself. I stopped shaving probably about a year ago. I just decided to stop caring about what other people thought about my body hair, and I became much happier with my body. Plus, I get a lot of ingrown hairs and have sensitive skin, so not shaving makes me physically more comfortable. @ Queerandcurious / reddit
I started shaving my legs when I was 14. I’m in New Zealand and it’s warm here. I ride a bike everywhere and wearing jeans while you ride your bike is fine in the winter, but it’s horrendous in summer. So I decided that I’m wearing shorts from now on. Humans are mammals. Mammals have hair. And while I still have over 20 years’ worth of social conditioning that tells me that shaved legs look better... for sure, they don’t look good enough to be worth all the trouble. @ unknown / reddit
Women want to make a statement.
Dealing with body hair can be pretty overwhelming since women have to find time in their schedules to remove their hair in the right way to avoid any irritation. They also have to worry about keeping their skin smooth, since hair can grow back pretty fast. And there’s a bunch of beauty products like razors, shaving creams, exfoliators, and moisturizers that women have to use to get the best results and protect their skin from the damage that shaving may cause. I stopped shaving to give myself more time for actual productive things, like focusing on my career. I actually timed every time I shaved for an entire month and it totaled out to 8 hours. @ Poopoopeepeeworm / reddit
Sometimes it’s a question of health.
Some people think that shaving your hair reduces your body odor, but this turned out to not be completely true. Removing hair from your armpits helps the deodorant to get absorbed by the skin better, while hair might create a barrier that may prevent it. But this barrier also prevents the skin from getting damaged by friction. And while everybody’s body is different, for some women, not shaving brings more benefits than disadvantages: I tried shaving my armpits in high school. It was fine in the winter, but I hated that slimy feeling in the summer when I sweated with no hair buffer. @ NoseFlock / reddit
This is my second winter of not shaving, and I think it’s actually less smelly than being hairless. I definitely prefer it to having to shave every other day for fear of stubble. @ BigBoud / reddit
Women may have more important things to do.
Some women fight against these imposed beauty standards and are trying to show that we all are allowed to not have to hide our natural beauty. They want to prove that they themselves get to make the decisions about their bodies, have their own perception of “femininity,” and feel good about themselves without pressure from society. I stopped shaving because body hair is natural. I decided I wanted to stop doing it just to please others. The history of shaving is pretty misogynistic too. @ radicalchanges / reddit

Bonus: How quickly body hair grows back
Everybody is unique and the speed of the hair growth may vary from person to person. Shaving only helps get rid of the hair itself, without damaging the hair follicle, so this process doesn’t interfere with hair growth and you may see the first noticeable hair growing back pretty quickly, like in a day or 2. Keep in mind that hair on different parts of our bodies has different growing cycles. That’s why you may notice that some parts of your body may get hairy faster than others.

Throughout this time , Jen remained the ultimate inspiration to women everywhere and still seems very happy ( just take @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
However , it ’ s the public attention about her private life that made her snap at one point and make a statement explaining that her happiness isn ’ t defined by love .
As Aniston wrote in a powerful essay : “ We are complete with or without a mate , with or without a child ... We don ’ t need to be married or mothers to be complete .
We get to determine our own ‘ happily ever after ’ for ourselves.

And that ’ s OK.
I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stuff right now .
I think as a woman , it ’ s in our nature to nurture someone else .
Sometimes at the expense of ourselves.

I was like , ‘ This is totally spiel.

I call it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can boast several high-profile boyfriends from her past , which include Woody Allen , Warren Beatty , and Al Pacino , but she ’ s never said , “ I do ” to any of them .

Her personal life is also fulfilled as she ’ s a proud mom to 2 adopted children .
Keaton once shared her thoughts on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think that because I ’ m not married it ’ s made my life any less .

A behavioral expert suggests that women are much happier when they’re unmarried and childless. This expert even says, “If you’re a man, you should probably get married, if you’re a woman, don’t bother.” This just further proves that people shouldn’t listen to what society says is normal and should just follow their hearts. In addition, there are many celebrity women who remind us of much more important things in our lives than romantic relationships and inspire us to put ourselves first.
We at Bright Side invite you along to celebrate these amazing ladies who prove that having a man doesn’t define our happiness.
1. Jennifer Aniston
Aniston’s romantic life can rival her storyline on Friends, which most of us know and love. First, she went through heartbreak with Brad Pitt in 2005, which made her take her heart off the market for several years. Then, she found love again with Justin Theroux, but their marriage also wasn’t meant to be and ended in 2017. Throughout this time, Jen remained the ultimate inspiration to women everywhere and still seems very happy (just take her successful career, for example). However, it’s the public attention about her private life that made her snap at one point and make a statement explaining that her happiness isn’t defined by love. As Aniston wrote in a powerful essay: “We are complete with or without a mate, with or without a child... We don’t need to be married or mothers to be complete. We get to determine our own ‘happily ever after’ for ourselves.”
2. Emilia Clarke
Despite being one of the most successful TV actresses of our time, Clarke has kept her love life mostly private. Her relationship with comedian Seth MacFarlane is the only one she’s officially confirmed, but other than that, the Game of Thrones star has mostly been dedicated to her career. Emilia once explained that she had chosen to focus on herself first and likes it that way: “People keep asking me who I’m dating right now and the truth is... wait for [it]... no one. And that’s OK. I’m figuring out a lot of stuff right now. I think as a woman, it’s in our nature to nurture someone else. Sometimes at the expense of ourselves.”
3. Lady Gaga
The first thing that comes to mind when we think of Lady Gaga is her pop icon status, while her personal life remains a second thought. She was previously engaged to her long-time boyfriend Taylor Kinney (sadly that didn’t work out), but music remains the love of her life. And don’t forget she also won an Oscar for A Star is Born! Gaga believes that you need to take care of yourself first, before committing to another person: “Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you’re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn’t love you anymore.”
4. Emma Watson
Everyone’s sweetheart Emma Watson has never publicly confirmed having a boyfriend. Instead, the actress has been keeping busy: she received a degree in English literature from Brown, continued to shine on the big screen, and has grown up into an admirable young lady. And yet, The Harry Potter star once admitted she didn’t believe in being happy without a boyfriend, but has realized that she was wrong: “I never believed in the whole ‘I’m happy single’ spiel. I was like, ‘This is totally spiel.’ It took me a long time, but I’m very happy [being single]. I call it being self-partnered.”
5. Diane Keaton
The great Diane Keaton can boast several high-profile boyfriends from her past, which include Woody Allen, Warren Beatty, and Al Pacino, but she’s never said, “I do” to any of them. Instead, she’s slayed at being a talented actress (hello, Oscar for Best Actress in Annie Hall) and has over 60 acting credits to her name. Her personal life is also fulfilled as she’s a proud mom to 2 adopted children. Keaton once shared her thoughts on marriage: “I don’t think that because I’m not married it’s made my life any less. That old maid myth is garbage.”
6. Rihanna
Rihanna doesn’t like to talk about her personal life. She once alluded to being in love, but it looks like her career has always remained a priority. She conquered the music industry by releasing 8 successful studio albums, which brought her 9 Grammys, and now she’s slaying the makeup game. In 2017, she launched the makeup company Fenty Beauty, that’s already a favorite for many women. There’s no doubt that Rihanna has a lot on her plate, even without a boyfriend to take care of. The singer knows very well how much effort goes into a relationship, and she prefers to keep her focus elsewhere: “Guys need attention. They need that nourishment... I’ll give it to my family, I’ll give it to my work — but I will not give it to a man right now.”
7. Drew Barrymore
The famous actress has been married 3 times in her life, but her marriage with Will Kopelman was the only one that lasted over a year. Will and Drew tied the knot in 2012 and had 2 beautiful daughters, but they couldn’t keep the family together and divorced in 2016. Meanwhile, Barrymore keeps her status as a Hollywood icon: her filmography includes over 70 films and TV shows, and she also managed to launch her own cosmetics brand, FLOWER Beauty. Being single doesn’t bring Barrymore down, even for a second, as she prefers to focus on the positives in her life: “I have fought my way to a deeper happiness on my own, and I love being independent! It just rules. I am also lucky enough to have 2 young amazing kids and a full-time job, and rad friends. So I’m not sitting around bummed out. I feel stupid grateful.”
8. Susan Sarandon
Stunning Susan Sarandon had her life filled with romance thanks to men like musician David Bowie, and actors Sean Penn and Tim Robbins, among others. Officially, Sarandon has been single since 2015, but she’s been keeping busy with acting. Her impressive acting career includes over 160 credits and one Oscar win. She’s also a mom to 3 children, so her life is filled with plenty of love. Susan once shared her insights on being on her own: “[Single life] has been a lot of different things. It’s traumatic and exhilarating. The one thing that’s been really clear to me is that you have to think of your own life and your relationship and everything as a living organism. It’s constantly moving, changing, growing.”
9. Elisabeth Moss
It’s sometimes funny how a career can go upward after a failed marriage, and Elisabeth Moss is a prime example. When Moss was married to Fred Armisen from 2009 to 2011, her role in the famous series Mad Men was the only big credit to her name. Since then, however, she landed the hit show The Handmaid’s Tale, which is still in full swing, and starred in several feature films, and won 2 Golden Globes. Overall, Moss said she loved the freedom that came with being single and it looks like it truly was the inspiration she needed: “It’s fun to go out at night and not know what’s going to happen. I’m addicted and obsessed with my freedom in that sense. I’m having fun!”
10. Charlize Theron
Like many other successful actresses on our list, Theron has had several high-profile relationships, but has never been married. Instead, she won an Oscar for Monster (2003), starred in over 60 films, and is actively producing many projects. But most importantly, Charlize is a mom. She adopted 2 kids in 2012 and 2015 and raises them as a single mom. Theron explained her stance on being single in 2014: “I’m sure there are a lot of aspects to my life that a lot of people wouldn’t want... Just personal choice things, like the fact that I’m single at 38. That’s not necessarily what a lot of women want... But I’m just saying, a life is good if it’s the life that you want... But I work at that, you know?”
11. Kim Cattrall
Similarly to her character on Sex and the City, Kim Cattrall is her own woman and doesn’t need a man to complete her. But she hasn’t always been like that. Cattrall has been married 3 times in her life, but she always put herself first. Her last marriage ended in 2004 and since then she’s been living for herself: Kim frequently pops up on TV and the big screen and returned to her role as Samantha Jones twice for movie adaptations of the famous show Sex and the City. Cattrall once discussed the ups and downs of being on her own: “It’s amazing freedom you have with [being single] and then the thought of someone invading your space... I guess there’re those moments where you think, ’If I’m having a bad day, who do I call?’ There are lonely moments, but I have to tell you honestly, that for myself, so many women in relationships are very loving, but also lonely too.”
12. Mindy Kaling
The star of The Office takes the crown for being the most private about her romantic life. In 2017, Kaling gave birth to a baby girl, but to this day the identity of her father is unknown. We didn’t expect this from someone who’s written 2 honest memoirs and given herself numerous boyfriends on her show The Mindy Project, but we salute Mindy for wanting privacy. Kaling said that the wisdom of single life came to her with age: “It’s funny, I used to freak out about being single much more in my twenties. I’ve noticed that the more professional success I have, or the more happy I am professionally, the less I worry about that, because I have a great deal of professional confidence... I love being by myself. I think that if I was in the wrong relationship, which I have been in several, that would be so much worse than the feeling of autonomy I feel right now.”
13. Jane Fonda
Jane Fonda has been single since 2001 when she divorced her third husband and she doesn’t miss it. The best things she got from her marriages were her children: she had a daughter with her first husband, a son and an unofficially adopted girl with her second. Becoming permanently single allowed Fonda to return to acting (she took a hiatus from 1990 to 2005) and retain her status as a Hollywood icon.

I read a lot. I meditate. I love solitude. It’s different than loneliness.”
14. Nicki Minaj
Aside from being a rap legend and one of the most successful female performers in a male-dominated industry, Minaj is a woman who’s been in love a few times. But what’s interesting is that she used to think she can’t be complete without a man. Nicki craved a relationship, but it was when she realized she’s her own independent woman, that she was able to find love and get married. Minaj shared her epiphany: “As soon as I realized that I could actually live and breathe, and eat and sleep, and walk and talk without having a boyfriend, something clicked in me. Becoming single was one of the things that made me feel strong and powerful. The fact that I am a young woman who doesn’t need a man for money.”
15. Cher
Cher is someone who doesn’t need any introduction, but let us remind you of her achievements: she’s released 26 studio albums as a solo artist, received 141 awards, which also includes an Oscar for Moonstruck (1987), and starred in over 60 movies and shows. It’s no wonder her last marriage ended in 1979, who’s got time for men when you have the entire world to conquer! Cher also has 2 kids, so she’s always had her hands full. The singer once shared wise words we should all live by: “A man is absolutely not a necessity... [But] I love men! I think men are the coolest. But you don’t really need them to live.”

Having interviewed quite a few candidates, I’ve come to accept that many people will try to lie their way through something they have very little knowledge in. When I ask a direct question and the person is trying to work it out on the fly, to come up with an answer that sounds correct, I get some great insight into their troubleshooting abilities. This only works if you know what it is you are talking about though. If you’ve never heard of Ansible, please don’t try to tell me what a great database application it is. At the end of the day though, my favorite answer, and the one most likely to get a candidate with limited experience onto the next phase, is to just admit you don’t know, but that you’ll look it up or google it and be able to answer the question next time. The most recent candidate we hired did just that. © shroom2021 / reddit

We at Bright Side love users’ stories about how they live with their pets and how animals surprise them. We’re sure that the stories we’ve chosen will make you laugh.
Whenever my door was closed, my cat would grab the door from underneath with his paw and shake the door until it opened. Imagine hearing BANG BANG BANG coming from your door at 3 am. My terrified self opened the door to find my cat who wanted to go outside. Clever creature. © RoastyTheToastyGhost / Reddit
“We’ve used/are using motion sensor alarms, spray bottles, and aluminum foil. I’d say teaching him to stay off the counters is going well.”
I had a cat that learned how to open the fridge and then my dog started begging my cat for food. And then the cat started getting into the fridge just to feed the dog. I patiently await the day where my pets decide to overthrow me and have me fixed. I’m not fighting it — that’ll only make it worse in the long run. © wererat2000 / Reddit
This is not about a current pet but a dog I had as a teenager. Dog jumps up on the couch. “No, you’re not allowed on the couch, go lie in your bed,” I’d say. The dog then leaves the room. A moment later he returns with his bed and throws it on the couch. He gets back up on the couch in his bed and stares at me." Fair enough." © aRealGoose / Reddit
My glass desk was a mistake. © newcleardrew / Reddit
My cat figured out how to fill up my bathtub. He learned how to close the drain and would turn the water handle and would just sit there and watch the tub slowly fill up. It took me weeks to figure out what was going on. © Mr-Havera / Reddit
One of my cats learned how to turn the Internet off. I mean, he realized everybody went crazy when he’d go behind the TV stand and mess up the wires. So when we’re not paying enough attention to him (usually if we’re on our phones or the computer), he just unplugs the router. I don’t think he knows how much power he has. © claustrophobiic / Reddit
I have a dachshund. Just like all the dogs of this breed, he eats anything that moves or doesn’t move. When he was young, he started climbing on the table. We decided to teach him: we left a sandwich with mustard on the table. We thought he’d try it and would never come to the table again. It turned out that our talents were no match for the dog’s persistence. He ate everything and licked the plate. We were really scared for him but he had no digestion problems at all. © Overheard
“My cat likes to sleep under a lamp I had on my floor because of the warmth. But the light was bright, so he knocked down an empty trash can and put his head under that. But the trash can was too hard, so he dragged a sock over from the dirty clothes pile and used it as a pillow.”
Everyday when my brother and I pull in the driveway from school we can see our dog on my brother’s bed in the window above the garage where he knows he isn’t allowed to be. When we walk into the house he is laying behind the living room couch and picks his head up and looks at us like he’s been sleeping there all day. © Elephant5619 / Reddit
My ex-girlfriend had a lover and when I went on business trips, she took him home. My loyal cat saw what was going on and she did everything she could to avenge me: she peed on the bed while they were there and peed near the apartment entrance, trying to tell me what was happening. I was so ashamed later when I realized what the cat meant and all I was doing was yelling at the cat instead of thanking it. © Overheard
I have a 3-month-old pup who got dirt in her eye one day. The eye kept tearing up and she held it partially shut for a few hours. During that time I felt really bad for her and handed out a lot of treats. Since then, when I am eating, she begs by winking that eye with a tiny whimper. Her wink is nonstop. If she’s called by someone else in the home she looks at them with perfect eyes. I get the “broken eye.” Once she gets the goods — her eyes are just fine again. © FlickerAndFlicker / Reddit

13. Another scene that looks very familiar — The Sword in the Stone and The Black Cauldron.
14. If you’ve had a feeling you’ve seen it somewhere, you have. This scene from 101 Dalmatians very much resembles the one from Winnie the Pooh.

Plastics are drowning our seas and are destroying the grasses that feed our animals. Micro-plastics are being found in our rivers, that are close to disappearing. Ecosystems are changing and humanity has a lot to do with this, even if we are not able to see the consequences immediately before our eyes.
Here at Bright Side we have taken the time to think about how humanity interferes in nature, and we bring you some examples that will hopefully inspire you to help enact change in the world.
1. Deforestation is leading us toward a world without forests, where animals won’t be able to survive.
2. The primate population is declining and many might have to live in captivity to guarantee their survival.
3. Glaciers have been melting at twice their normal rate since the turn of the century.
4. An oil leak could be just a technical failure for us, but birds will need help to be able to fly free again.
5. Everyone is looking for the perfect paradise, but tourism pollutes these natural landscapes.
6. Sometimes we want to be close to wild animals, but the best picture is portraying them happily living in their own environment.
7. Thousands of animals eat or get entangled in the waste we produce that ends up in the sea.
8. Land salinization and a lack of rain affects animals that are the livelihood of millions of families.
9. Droughts become more frequent and intense, leading to the temporary disappearance of impressive waterfalls.
10. The Aral Sea was once the fourth largest in the world, now it only has 10% of its water left and that can never be restored.
11. Rising sea temperatures are killing colorful coral reefs worldwide and creating a heartbreaking underwater landscape.
12. The 10 year challenge is definitely child’s play, if we propose the 100 year challenge to nature.
13. With our consumption rate, in 2050 there could be more plastic than fish in the oceans.
14. Peeling a fruit takes us 2 minutes, but this plastic takes more than 100 years to disappear.
15. Microplastic is everywhere, like in toothpaste and glitter. And it can even end up in the fish we eat.
16. Only a small percentage of plastics are recycled, the rest ends up in landfills, where animals now forage for food.
17. Melting ice is leaving less space where animals can rest in the middle of the ocean.
Are you aware of how nature is changing rapidly due to human action? What can we do to protect our home besides just stand by and look at these transformations? Are we ready to take action?

There may be ways to know if your baby is hungry before it starts crying, such as when it nuzzles up to things and puts its hands in its mouth. And another pediatrician explains how to help babies eat new foods with less fuss using just one hack.
Being a parent can be difficult, especially if it’s your first time. So here at Bright Side, we have created a list of all the best hacks for the everyday situations parents face.
1. How to understand your baby’s cries
Apparently there can be up to 6 types of cries, each with its own meaning. The “neh” cry means “I’m hungry.”
The “owh” cry means “I’m sleepy.”
The “heh” cry means “I’m uncomfortable.”
The “eairh” (eh-urr) cry means “I have gas.”
The “eh” cry means “I need to burp.”
2. How to help your baby sleep safely
Put your baby to sleep on its back and make sure the crib is clutter-free with no heavy blankets or toys they could get caught up in. This also means that falling asleep in a chair or on the sofa with your baby can be dangerous.
3. How to tell if your baby is hungry
Babies may be telling you that they’re hungry before they start crying for food. They can show you this by nuzzling and moving their chin as if they’re looking for a bottle while putting their hand in their mouth, smacking their lips, or sticking out their tongue.
4. How to speed up bedtime
Dr. Erin Leichman’s tip is to create a bedtime “book bin” or shelf with your young child ahead of bedtime. The child will then choose which of the books to read instead of picking from all the options. This should speed up the bedtime routine, hopefully with fewer tears involved.
5. How to help babies eat new foods
It can take children and babies up to 12 times to accept new foods. It’s advised not to reward children with food because they may start seeing treats as good and vegetables as bad.
6. How to stop babies from crying
Dr. Robert Hamilton says that there are 4 crucial steps: the baby’s arms should be placed across its chest and gently secured, and you should support the baby from its diaper area before rocking it at a 45-degree angle.
7. How to tell if your baby is getting enough milk
If you’re breastfeeding, you can understand if your baby is drinking enough milk if its cheeks are rounded, not hollowed, during feeding. It’s also important that it’s attached properly with their chin touching your breast and their lower lip rolled down.
8. How to communicate with your baby
Sign language can be useful for communicating with your baby before they learn to talk. Some essential signs include: “Drink” — thumb to mouth
“Where?” — palms up
“Afraid” — patting chest repeatedly
“Gentle” — patting the back of the hand
9. How to find the correct car seat for your baby
For very young babies, rear-facing car seats are advised to reduce the effects of a crash, depending on the child’s size and age. Rear-facing car seats have a harness and are designed to cradle the baby and rock with the movement of the car.

Despite the difficulties, there are tips that can help you establish conversations with autistic children. That’s why we at Bright Side want to share with you a list of recommendations that can facilitate the way you communicate with your child or help you strengthen your bond with them.
1. Before turning 12 months
You can begin to recognize the symptoms of autism in babies around 6 and 12 months. It usually happens when the parents, or those who interact with the child, notice that the little one does not reach the typical achievements during their first year of life. Some of the signs are: They don’t pay attention to new faces.
They don’t respond to loud noises.
They don’t grab or hold objects.
They don’t respond to a parent’s smile
They are not trying to attract attention through actions.
They have no interest in participating in interactive games with people.
2. They seem unable to show empathy.
It can be difficult for kids with autism to show empathy and sympathy, or to understand another person’s perspective in a common way. Because of this, they may seem indifferent and unfriendly. They don’t know how to react to a difficult situation, they might laugh when someone is injured, or respond with little or no emotion to someone else’s pain or joy.
3. They show no interest in their loved ones.
Children with autism may act distant, with no interest in establishing emotional bonds with their parents, siblings, or other children of the same age. They tend to avoid eye contact and remain alone, so they are emotionally disconnected from the world. However, this doesn’t mean that they don’t have feelings, but instead, it just means that they don’t know how to express them.

However, they generally have a hard time demonstrating their feelings. It may also appear that they are not emotionally responsive, or that their responses are somewhat exaggerated. For example, they can get angry very quickly and get very upset about minor inconveniences.
5. Maintaining repetitive routines
They develop restricted and repetitive patterns when doing activities that interest them. Usually, the things that attract them require their full attention and they can spend long periods of time focusing or repeating the same word. They like to maintain a daily routine so that they know what will happen every day. For example, they always want to go the same way to school or eat exactly the same food for dinner. Due to how strict they are with their routine, making changes can be inconceivable to them, and they may reject it entirely.

Children also tend to be very sensitive to touch (they don’t like to be touched) and to different types of textures. They may cringe at a pat on the back or the feel of a certain cloth against their skin.
7. They may overreact.
They may have difficulty regulating their emotions and act disproportionately in a situation that seems normal. For example, they could start screaming, crying, or laughing hysterically for no apparent reason. When stressed, they may exhibit disruptive or even aggressive behavior (breaking things, hitting others, or hurting themselves). In addition, they may not understand when they are in a dangerous situation, like moving vehicles or heights, but at the same time, be afraid of harmless objects, like a stuffed animal.
8. They show difficulty in speaking and understanding language.
Typically children begin to speak or imitate the sounds of people they interact with when they turn about a year and a half old. In the case of children with autism, they develop language skills much later. They might speak with an abnormal tone of voice, with a strange rhythm, or repeat words and phrases over and over again, without intending to say something specific. They have a hard time starting or maintaining a conversation. They don’t understand some simple sentences or questions and take what is said very literally. They lack the ability to understand humor, irony, and sarcasm.
9. Repetitive behavior
Children with autism are often stiff and even obsessive in their behaviors, activities, and interests. They might perform repetitive body movements, such as constantly moving their hands, rocking back and forth, or turning. They become obsessed with objects like keys or light switches and use them as toys. They have a tendency to get very interested in particular subjects that usually involve numbers or symbols (maps or sports statistics). They need to keep everything in a specific order, for example, they align their toys in a special way and they don’t tolerate someone changing it. They maintain an abnormal posture or may even move in a strange way.
10. They prefer non-verbal communication.
Because children with autism are slow to develop language and, even after doing so, have trouble expressing themselves, they prefer to use non-verbal communication. They can use both physical and visual tools, like drawings or gestures to indicate something.
11. They have difficulty recognizing facial expressions.
They may have difficulty recognizing facial expressions (for example, they don’t understand that their mother is upset with them when she is frowning). They also don’t understand the communicative signals regarding the tone of voice, meaning they don’t know how to distinguish if the person who is speaking is doing so in a happy, sad, or annoyed tone. They find it difficult to differentiate between the real and the imaginary since they are very imaginative and often live in their own little worlds.

Grandparents who regularly spend time with their grandchildren increase their well-being, according to research. They usually try to help parents and make their lives easier, but in reality, these actions often just complicate things.
Bright Side revealed the most common things that lead to disagreements between 2 generations.
1. Criticizing parenting practices
The International Journal of Educational Research and Development found that parental authority is an essential tool in the process of raising children. Any negative statements from grandparents certainly don’t help moms and dads to set an example for their child. In the worst cases, it can even severely undermine trust between them.
2. Buying unnecessary toys
Parents know very well which toys children already have and which ones they really need. In addition, when refusing to buy everything, they teach their kids to value money and spend it wisely. When interfering in this process, the grandparents do the child a disservice.
3. Publishing photos without permission
Parents can grow afraid of sending photos of children to their grandparents because they often immediately appear on the Internet. The older generation isn’t always so familiar with information technology, so grannies and granddads sometimes don’t understand that absolutely any person will be able to see these photos. Of course, parents, in their turn, may not want to put their private life on public display.
4. Encouraging every little thing
A study says that excessive praise can lead to a lack of motivation. Often, grandparents start to emphasize their attention only on the good deeds of their grandchildren and encourage them for nothing. But as it turns out, this encouragement can kill the child’s desire to move forward.
5. Imposing their own rules
According to a study, children are very susceptible to influences from the outside world. Their worldview and values are very fragile, so it’s important they face the least amount of contradictions. When parents teach children one thing and grandparents another, this leads to dissonance which can complicate the learning process.
6. Secretly feeding them sweets
The American Heart Association’s scientific statement says that children ages 2 to 18 should eat or drink less than 6 teaspoons of added sugars daily. Typically, children are uninterested in the results of scientific research, so parents have to carefully monitor their nutrition. When grandparents feed their grandchildren sweets secretly, it brings them pleasure — but at the same time, it causes great damage to their health.
7. Telling their friends everything about their grandchildren
We often come to our parents for advice, even about raising children. We can discuss quite intimate things that are best not shared with strangers. Learning that friends of the grandparents not only learned of these things but also thoroughly discussed them, usually infuriates parents.
8. Buying them ridiculous clothes
The world of fashion is changing so fast that sometimes you don’t even know if you look stylish according to modern standards yourself. The age difference between grandparents and grandchildren can be very apparent when it comes to choosing clothes. Moms and dads don’t want to offend the older generation but at the same time, want their child to look stylish. Such a contradiction puts them in an uncomfortable position.
9. Neglecting bedtime
In an attempt to win the affection of a grandchild, grandparents may sometimes allow them to go to bed late or not take a nap after lunch. At the same time, scientists say that preschoolers should sleep 10-13 hours a day and teenagers at least 8 hours. A lack of sleep can lead to serious illnesses such as diabetes and can also affect brain activity. That’s why parents don’t like it when someone allows their children to break their sleep schedule.
10. Allowing them to watch TV all day
Today, television plays a significant role in our lives. For children, this is not only a means of entertainment, but it’s also a way of getting to know the world. But grandparents often forget about reasonable limits. In 2015, scientists learned how much time children should spend watching TV. Watching TV for more than 2 hours a day can lead to high blood pressure in children.

It’s customary to mention the achievements of one’s children in society. However, our parents also have many things to surprise us with: like making a 47-year-old dream come true or riding a skateboard around a park. We invite you to look at these people and get some inspiration from their stories.
Bright Side prepared a compilation that will remind you of a feeling you used to have during childhood when it seemed that your parents were superheroes who knew and could do anything.
