Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create a sticker chart if your child responds well to incentives. Plan a date to stop using the pacifier if you want a quick approach. Make the pacifier taste unpleasant if your child relies on it for comfort. Ask your toddler to give the pacifier away if they know a young baby.

Answer: For every day they go without their pacifier, let them put a sticker on the chart and praise them for doing well. If they ask for their pacifier during the day, let them know that they will not get a sticker if they use it. Choose a reward that your child will receive once they complete the sticker chart. This can act as an extra motivator to go without their pacifier. Birthdays work well for this, since the pacifier can easily be "replaced" by gifts. Gifts that your child recognize as signifying a transition to older childhood - such as a toy reserved for "big kids" - are especially effective for this. If your child is very attached to their pacifier this is a good way to bring negative associations to it. Dunk the pacifier in lemon juice or vinegar to give it a bad taste before giving it to your child. Avoid using salt or pepper as these aren't good for young children's health. This method works best for children that are 2 years or older, as they will be able to comprehend what is happening. Suggest to your child that they give the pacifier away to a small baby. Ask a friend with a young baby to receive the pacifier from your child as a "gift" for their baby. This can help your child feel involved in the process of stopping the use of their pacifier. Give your child plenty of praise after they have given away their pacifier.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Try a non-prescription scar treatment cream to shrink boil scars. Apply silicone gel to the boil scar to lighten its appearance. Use a pressure garment to help reduce scarring. Use a chemical exfoliator to flatten out raised boil scars. Spread a vitamin E cream on your scars for a natural alternative.

Answer: Squeeze out a small dollop of scar cream onto 1 finger and rub it into your boil scars. When it's fully rubbed in, the cream should be absorbed into the scar tissue. If the cream is visible after you've rubbed it in, you've probably applied too much. Leave the cream in place for 35 hours before washing it off, unless the product packaging directs otherwise. You can apply scar treatment cream to boil scars anywhere on your body. Be sure to let the boil heal fully before applying the cream, though. Common brands of scar treatment gels include NewGel, BioCorneum, and Kelo-cote. These products are designed to shrink scar tissue and to lighten its appearance. Many scar gels also contain medium-SPF sunblock. The sunblock will help protect your scars from being damaged and darkened by sunlight. Squeeze a generous dollop of the gel into 1 hand and spread the gel across your boil scar tissue until it's covered in a thick layer of gel. Wait 45 minutes for the gel to dry before putting any clothing or covering over the scars. In most cases, you only need to apply silicone gel twice per day. Continue using the gel twice daily until the boil scar shrinks in size and loses its raised texture. Silicone gel has no side effects and does not cause pain when it's applied to scar tissue. Silicone gel works slowly. In most cases, you'll need to apply the gel for at least 6 months before you begin to see results. While this may feel like a discouraging amount of time to wait, don't give up! Silicone products work well and are very effective, so you'll likely be happy with the results. If you don't see results within 9-10 months, ask your doctor if another treatment method would be more effective. Silicone gel is widely sold at drugstores and pharmacies. You can also check for it in the pharmacy section of a large supermarket. You can also tape a silicone gel sheet on the scar for 12-24 hours per day for 2-6 months. Wash the sheet daily and replace it with a new one every 10-14 days. Get a pressure garment or bandage that has at a rating of 20-30 mmHg. Put the garment on for 12-24 hours per day for 2-6 months to reduce the size of the scar and prevent the risk of recurrence after any surgical excisions. Chemical exfoliators are usually sold over the counter, so you can purchase a chemical exfoliator at your local drugstore. Squeeze out a dime-sized dollop onto a fingertip, and rub the serum into your boil scar. The exfoliator cream should form a thin layer over the scar when it's properly applied. Repeat 23 times daily (or as suggested on the packaging), and you should see the scar becoming smaller and less noticeable. Look for skin creams and exfoliating serums that contain either glycolic acid or a combination of salicylic-mandelic acids. Chemical exfoliating creams may cause discomfort on sensitive skin (e.g., around your mouth or eyes). If you feel a burning sensation when you apply the exfoliator, stop using this treatment method immediately. Purchase a skincare cream that contains vitamin E at a local pharmacy or drugstore. Apply a small dollop of vitamin E cream to each of your scars once daily for 2-3 weeks or until the scar tissue lightens. Speak to your doctor before using a vitamin E cream if you're already using an exfoliator or another scar-treatment cream. Studies have shown that vitamin E creams have mixed results. In some cases, vitamin E creams significantly lighten the appearance of scars, while in other cases, they have little to no effect. Vitamin E creams can have mild side effects, including slight itching and a mild rash.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Spend time getting to know yourself. Spend some time with your loved ones. Look up stories of people who succeeded after being fired. Get your confidence back.

Answer: Clear your mind of the stress leftover from your job. If you do get fired, you'll have plenty of time to focus on what makes you happy. You'll get to learn new things about yourself and reassess your career goals. You may find that you want to do something entirely different than the position you were let go from. Focus on your health. Make an exercise routine. Adopt a healthy diet. Get plenty of sleep. Have new experiences. You can enjoy inexpensive adventures like going hiking. Learn new skills you never had time for while you were working. Enjoy some quality time with your family. Being overly focused on work can make you forget the things in life that are really important. If you get fired, you'll have a lot of extra time to connect with your kids, your spouse, your parents and whoever else is an important part of your life. Many of the most successful people in our country have been fired. Sometimes, being fired from a position that doesn't fit you can lead to you finding your true calling. J.K. Rowling was fired from her day job as a secretary and was even homeless for a short period of time before writing the "Harry Potter" books. Michael Bloomberg was fired from an investment bank and used his severance package to start his financial data company. Bloomberg L.P. is now one of the most successful companies on the planet. Having constant fear that you'll be fired can be very detrimental to your self-esteem. When you're out of that job, you'll get a chance to remember how great of a person you really are. The only thing that changes when you get fired is your employment status. You'll find that you're still the same intelligent, capable person you were before you worked there and eventually another company will agree.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Watch a scary movie or TV show. Try a stimulating computer game. Take a risk. Do something that scares you. Go to a haunted house.

Answer:
Scary movies are by nature designed to make people fearful. If you are bothered by frightening stimuli in a scary movie, this may encourage a fight or flight response. This can cause your body to release epinephrine. If you want to get an adrenaline rush, watch a scary movie online or rent a DVD. Choose a theme that genuinely bothers you. If zombies have never really scared you, marathoning The Walking Dead is unlikely to encourage an adrenaline rush. However, if you have a longstanding fear of the paranormal you may be frightened by a movie like The Ring. Pay attention to outside opinions. Certain movies are generally considered scary by critics and audiences. Psycho, Night of the Living Dead, Alien, and The Exorcist are considered amongst the scariest films of all time. If you want an adrenaline rush, a movie with a lot of jump scares and surprise moments might be better than something's that frightening on a psychological level. Remember, you're trying to stimulate a fight or flight response so something that's direct and action-based will work best. Go for a scary movie with a lot of action. For example, a film from the Halloween franchise might be a better option than Rosemary Baby. If you're really into a computer or video game, you may get an adrenaline rush. Violent games tend to result in the release of adrenaline. Consider renting or purchasing an action-packed game with a high level of gore and violence. Military games and first person shooter games often encourage the release of adrenaline in the body. Risk-taking on occasion can release adrenaline in the body. In addition to causing an adrenaline rush, periodically taking small risks is healthy as it encourages you to step outside your comfort zone. The idea here is not to do something that could potentially hurt you. Closing your eyes while driving will certainly give you an adrenaline rush, but it's absolutely not worth the risk. Instead, stick to behaviors that would normally make you uncomfortable. Ask someone out on a date. Sing karaoke at a bar. Dance with a stranger. Buy a lottery ticket. Audition for a play. Anything that feels risky to you can cause an adrenaline rush. If you're interested in a bigger rush, there a certain behaviors that provide a kind of controlled risk. Things like bungee jumping and ski diving, for example, feel risky as you're falling from large heights. However, as long as you're working with an experienced sky diver or bungee jumper you should be safe. If you choose to engage in such activities, work with a trained professional and follow all safety instructions exactly. Get onto a glass elevator if you are afraid of heights. Instead of looking away or closing your eyes, look outside. Fear can also stimulate the release of adrenaline. Facing your fears periodically, in safe and controlled situations, can provide you with a nice adrenaline rush. Think of something that scares you. If you're afraid of heights, for example, makes plans to go to a rooftop bar with friends. If you have a longstanding fear of dogs, go to a local dog park. Expose yourself to small things that scare you. This can result in the fight or flight response that can trigger an adrenaline rush. Haunted houses can often cause adrenaline rushes for those in attendance. This can trigger the fight or flight response that releases adrenaline. The nice thing about a haunted house is that it's a controlled setting. You can expose yourself to scary stimuli while knowing logically you are still safe, allowing you to experience an adrenaline rush without genuine anxiety or fear. Seasonally, it's easiest to find a haunted house around Halloween. However, keep your eyes open throughout the year. Some organizations may do haunted houses as part of special benefits or fundraisers during odd seasons. If you live near an amusement park, there may be a haunted house attraction that's opened year-round.
