Problem: Article: Offering your support to someone with anger issues can feel draining. Be sure to get support of your own by reaching out to close friends and family. Ask them to hear you out as you talk through problems or simply distract you when you don't want to discuss the issue. Avoid gossiping about the angry person or rehashing their issues. Instead, focus on what you need to do to de-stress. If everyone in your social circle is angry, you may become angry too. This is because people have a tendency to mimic the behavior of those around them. Make sure you have a well-rounded social circle that includes generally happy or optimistic people as well. An angry environment can make you feel stressed out or anxious. Combat stress with regular self-care activities, like getting a massage, listening to soothing music, soaking in a warm bath, or doing relaxing yoga sequences. It's fine to want to support your loved one, but try to carve out some "me time" a few days each week to do nourishing activities to fill yourself back up. Another way to get support is by seeking out others who understand what you are going through. Locate anger management support groups in your local area and consider attending a few meetings. You might feel relieved to hear that others are having similar experiences. Plus, they may have useful advice to help you cope. If your loved one becomes abusive, all bets are off. It is never okay to hurt someone else out of anger. At that point, you must direct your energy towards keeping yourself safe. Leave the environment if possible. Call a friend, family member, or speak to someone anonymously on a helpline. If your spouse becomes violent, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233. If you are a child and afraid of an adult with violent tendencies, contact the Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline at 1-800-4-A-Child.
Summary: Confide in a trusted friend. Spend time with happy people. Practice self-care. Attend an anger management support group. Get help if anger turns violent.

Problem: Article: Look to the bottom of your phone, and locate Messaging. Tap on it. Once you're in Messaging, tap on the menu button. It's usually fairly invisible, and located to the lower left side of your device. It'll slightly light up if you tap on it. After tapping on it, you'll see various menu options. You're now in the Settings category of your Messaging app. Scroll down until you reach Register Number As Spam. That's the option that will allow you to no longer be notified when your unwanted contact sends you a text. Look to the upper right side of your screen, and tap on the Plus sign to add unwanted numbers. If you've never added a contact as spam, the screen will be mostly black and say No Numbers Blocked. You have the option of either manually typing a number you wish to mark as Spam, or you can retrieve it from your contacts if you've previously registered it in your phone. Once you've selected the contacts to be marked as spam, tap on Save (upper right corner). You will now no longer receive texts from that number or contact. You can remove a number from spam anytime by deleting the contact or number from that list.
Summary: Tap on the Messaging app. Tap on Menu. Tap on Settings. Tap on the Plus sign. Enter the number or contact you wish to block. Tap on Save.

Problem: Article: A bright red bandana around the neck will stand out and is something a pirate might well have worn. If you don't have one, make one! Cut a piece of red fabric in a large square shape. Fold the square into a triangle. Wrap around your neck. Tie the ends at the back of your neck and have the bandana tips pointed downward at the front of your neck. A belt around your shirt or t-shirt is a perfect pirate touch. You can either wear a very wide belt you've found in your own wardrobe or from the thrift store, or you can make a belt from fabric or card. Some pirates wore (or "wear" in the images on Google) a belt that more resembles a sash. If you have a black or red scarf, it can easily be turned into a pirate belt. Eye patches can be purchased from costume stores or online, or you can make your own: Draw the shape of an eye patch on a piece of lightweight card. Cut out the patch. Paint the outer side black. Let dry. Pierce two holes into the top of the patch on either side of it. Thread in the ends of thin elastic and knot in place. Check that the length of elastic is just right for going around your head before cutting and knotting the final hole.
Summary: Wear a bandana around your neck. Add a pirate belt. Rock an eye patch. Wear skulls or gold jewels like thick necklaces and earrings.

Problem: Article: If you want to invent a sport, you'll have to see what kind of balls, rackets or sticks, and goal-type equipment you have. Look around your own house and ask your friends too. Make sure you have enough if each player needs to use their own stick or ball. You might find a golf ball, a baseball bat, a football helmet, and a racket. You don't have to pick up all of the stuff, but at least make a list of what you have. If you have no sports equipment, make a sport that doesn't need any. Use just your body and your environment. Adapt running, hand-to-hand combat, or exercise into a sport. Use non-sports equipment for the game. Look for buckets, brooms, rocks, sticks, chairs, boxes, blankets, or any other household items to somehow use for a sport. Come up with how players score in the game. Have them throw something the farthest, or hit a ball the most times. Make sure you choose if they must reach a certain score, or if whoever has the best score or performance wins. For example, you might have to score the most points to win. You might score by using the racket to hit the golf ball into the helmet from different distances away. The scoring doesn't have to be points. It could be accomplishing a task first, performing a feat best, or doing something the most times. You don't have to make totally new rules for your game, just use the rules of other games you know. Make sure the rules tell players what they have to do and what they are not allowed to do. Combine rules from different sports so they fit together. For example, most sports have boundary lines that players must stay within. If you cross a boundary line, the other player or team takes control of the game. Make rules about players touching each other. Football allows players to make physical contact with regulations about what's acceptable. Yet, baseball has very little contact. Include rules about how to use the equipment, such as kicking the ball in soccer, throwing and catching the ball in football, or tagging the base in baseball. Decide if your game is played one-on-one or with teams, or if it works with either. If there has to be an exact number, make sure you know how many. If the game works with different numbers of players, that will give you more freedom. For example, tennis only works with two players or four players, but basketball works with two to ten or more players. Make sure you have enough space to play. Stay away from buildings and anything else that might get in the way. You'll need room to run around for most sports. Ask your parents before you go away from your house. If you need any type of boundaries or starting lines, use trees or the edge of the grass. If you have cones or rope, use that to set up lines, too.
Summary:
Gather up some sports equipment. Describe how the scoring works. Come up with a set rules for your game. Set a number of players who can play. Find an open place to play the sport in.
