This year the summer solstice, which marks the official start of summer, falls on June 21. During this time of year, schedules become lax and meals often occur on-the-fly and and usually outdoors.

Each person, at times, feels anxious about a situation they’re currently in or about to enter. If such feelings are the norm, however, a person may feel they’re “shy” and may find they’re labeled as such by others. Being shy seems cute when it’s a small child hiding behind a parent’s leg but as people get older, being shy can leave them feeling needlessly anxious and often keeps them from opportunities and relationships from which they might benefit. Extreme cases of feeling shy can sometimes meet the criteria for social an...

It is especially true as social media has provided new and far-reaching means for children to shame other children. But bullying doesn’t end with the school year. It’s important f...
