Problem: Article: Envision what it will look like and plan how much space you need to write each name and to draw the necessary connections. Working in pencil allows you to start over on a branch if you run out of room. Since this is your family tree, it all begins with you. Write your name in a spot on the page that is surrounded by plenty of space for all of the other names. The place where you write your name is the beginning of the tree. If you write it at the bottom of the page, the branches will protrude upward. You could write it at the top of the page and have the rest flow downward, or write it on one side of the page and have the tree bloom out in the other direction. If you decide to go with an actual tree shape, go ahead and draw the outline of the tree in light pencil and position your name where you want it. Space your parents' names directly above or below your name, depending on what direction you want the tree to flow. Write your siblings' names level with yours, so they extend from your parents' names. If you and your siblings have spouses or children, write them as well. Spouses' names are written directly next to their partners, and the children's names are written below their parents' names. You can draw lines connecting parents to their children if you'd like. Tailor the tree to fit your family. If you have one parent, or more than two parents, fill them in as well. You can get creative with the drawing to include your step parents, step siblings, and anyone else who is part of your family. The most important aspect of a family tree is making sure everyone is included. To keep your tree well-organized, use a regular pattern for the order in which you list the siblings. For example, start with the oldest sibling on the left and then put all subsequent siblings to the right, or vice versa. Either way, keep it consistent throughout the tree. This is where the tree begins to split off into branches. On your father's side of the tree, write in his siblings' names, their spouses, and their children (your first cousins). Write your father's parents' names on the next level, with a line extending from them to each of their children. Do the same on your mother's side of the tree, including all the members of your extended family on that side. Continue adding the names of your great aunts and uncles and their spouses and children, your great grandparents, and so on until you've filled in as much of the family tree as you want. Retrace the tree in black or colored ink to make the names and outline stand out. You can add decorations and other details to make the tree more interesting. Here are some examples: Use different shapes for males and females. For example, you can use ovals for females and rectangles for males, or whatever other pattern you wish. This way, someone looking at your family tree can tell at a glance the gender of the different individuals. Use dashed lines for divorced couples. This way, you can still express the biological relationships between parents and their children, even when they are not married. Add dates of birth and (where applicable) death. This can add a lot of information to your tree and make it interesting to your friends and other family members. Add more biographical information for each individual, such as place of birth, maiden names, middle names, and so on.
Summary: Draw the tree in light pencil. Write your name. Add your parents and siblings. Write in your aunts and uncles, cousins and grandparents. Include more generations. Enhance it with more detail.

Problem: Article: If you sent a message to someone that makes you feel embarrassed but is not hurtful to anyone, know that the worst is over. A random message sent to the wrong person might be embarrassing, but it won't kill you. Embarrassment and anxiety manifest in many physical ways. You may feel lightheaded, weak, have a stomach cramp, or a headache. Take deep breaths, do a little stretching, and make sure you stay hydrated. As time passes, these symptoms will fade, along with your embarrassment. If the issue is the result of a group message gone awry, staying a member of the group may only make the situation worse. If a conversation gets heated or inappropriate, it's best to leave it before sending a message you might later regret. Click the Messages icon at the top right of any Facebook page, (or launch Messenger if you're using a mobile device.) Open the group conversation you want to leave. Click the wheel icon (desktop) or the arrow icon (Messenger) at the top right corner of the message. Select "Leave Conversation" (on all platform). A notification will be sent to the others that you have left the conversation, and you won't receive any further messages. Having to look at something hurtful over and over again isn't good for anyone. If you wince in pain every time you see the harmful message in your inbox, you can archive the message. This won't delete it, but it'll file it away so it's no longer in your face. You'll be able to find it at any time by searching for the recipient's name. Open your inbox by clicking the Messages icon at the top right of any Facebook page, or launch Messenger on your mobile device. If you're using the desktop version of Facebook, click the X next to the conversation you want to archive. In Facebook Messenger for mobile devices, swipe left on the message and select "Archive." If the person to whom you wrongfully sent a message responds expressing sadness, embarrassment, or anger, respond with a brief message that makes them feel seen, heard, and understood. Some examples: If the person responding says that they are very angry, say, "I hear that you are angry, and I definitely understand why." If a person says they are embarrassed, say, "I can understand why you would feel embarrassed. I would also feel embarrassed if someone did to me what I did to you." If they say they are devastated, say, "I understand and accept that my actions have been upsetting to you. That's totally valid." Receiving an angry response from someone you upset won't feel good, but it's a part of their process. However, abusive language and threats of violence are never okay, even when you've upset someone. Report any hate speech or threats of violence to Facebook.
Summary:
Forgive yourself. Take care of your physical needs. Leave a group conversation or thread. Archive messages you don't want to see. Validate the recipient's feelings. Know your limits.
