Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Close your eyes and count to ten. Take calming breaths. Repeat a mantra. Offer calming reassurance during a tantrum. Schedule in breaks. Do work of your own. Get help for a struggling child.

Answer: Impatience can sneak up on you when you're trying to help your young child with their homework. In these situations, you can quickly draw on techniques that help you stay calm in the heat-of-the-moment. Before you become irritable with your child, simply shut your eyes and count to ten. If you need more time, try leaving the room for a "bathroom break," even if you don't need one. Deep breathing is a great exercise to call upon in moments of impatience. Plus, you can do this exercise any time and any place. Draw in deep, cleansing breaths from your nose for a few counts. Hold the breath for a second. Then, slowly release the air through your mouth. Try deep breathing when you become impatient and notice yourself becoming relaxed and more in control. Focus on drawing the air down into your abdomen, not into your chest. Reciting a calming phrase aloud or in your head may help you to get a hold on anger and impatience before they get out of hand. Try saying something like, "This too shall pass" over and over again until you feel more capable of calmly dealing with your child. Younger kids are more likely to have temper tantrums when they are asked to tackled tough subjects. Reasons for tantrums vary from being hungry to being tired, but some kids simply will have them when they don't want to do hard work. The trick to easing a tantrum is to not become rattled or get drawn into an argument. Stay quiet and relaxed during the tantrum. This will help your child calm down sooner. Place a hand on their shoulder or back to offer reassurance. Ignore any acting out behavior and refuse to say anything until your child has stopped the behavior. With an older child, consider leaving the area or room. Small children may have a hard time focusing on their work after a long day of school. Give your child (and yourself) regular breaks to use the restroom, have a snack, or collect themselves after an especially difficult assignment. It may even be a good idea to let your child do some other after-school activity before starting homework in the evenings. Know what works for your individual child. For example, your child may need to engage in physical activity before beginning their homework, or they may need to take short, active breaks. Model good attention and concentration skills by doing your own work while your child does homework. This helps set a good example that even parents have to do homework. Plus, you'll be less impatient if you're using your child's homework time to do something constructive, too. Try paying bills, writing out the week's grocery list or menu, or reading a book during homework time. This will also help keep the environment calm because you will both be occupied with a work task. If you find yourself becoming impatient on a regular basis during your small child's homework time, you may need to call in reinforcements. Some parents simply have a harder time coaching and guiding small children who don't really know how to study appropriately. If your impatience stems from the work being too difficult or taking up too much time, it may help to talk to your child's teacher about cutting back on homework or being more realistic about what is assigned. If you can't seem to explain concepts so that your child understands or your child is really struggling, it may help to hire a tutor who has experience in this area or have your child evaluated for a learning disorder. If your child has older siblings, see if they can help. The concepts will be fresher in their mind.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Get the timing right. Loosen the soil around the bulbs. Lift the garlic from the soil.

Answer: The best time to plant garlic is in the fall approximately four to six weeks before the ground freezes in your area. The colder your climate is, the earlier in the fall that you should plant. That means the garlic is usually ready to harvest in early to mid-summer, which can be anywhere from July to August. Because garlic grows underground, it can be difficult to know when it's ready -- the trick is to watch the plants and notice when approximately of the leaves are pale yellow and shriveled. Dry soil around the plants is another sign that your garlic is ready to be harvested. If you aren't sure whether your garlic is ready to be harvested, remove one or two bulb to examine them. They should be a good size, and the skins should be completely filled. If the soil is too tightly compacted around the garlic, it can be difficult to remove them from the ground. Before you try to lift the bulbs free, use a digging fork or small shovel to carefully loosen the dirt around the bulbs of garlic so you'll be able to easily work them free. Don't dig too close to the bulbs or you may damage them. Be careful when you're using the fork or shovel around the bulbs. Garlic is delicate, so it can bruise easily. You may be tempted to pull the bulbs out of the ground by their stems, but you can damage the garlic if you extract it too roughly. Instead, use a spade, shovel, or garden fork to gently lift the bulbs out of the dirt. Gently place the harvested bulbs in a container, such as a bucket, to keep them safe as you continue to remove the rest of the garlic. It's usually best to use a spade or shovel to lift the garlic out of the ground because it's easier to damage if you use a pointed tool like a garden fork. Keep the garlic out of the sun after you harvest it. Place the container that's holding the bulbs in the shade or cover it with a sheet.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Mix 1/2 cup (90 g) of baking soda and 1/4 cup (59.14 ml) of vinegar together. Rub the paste into your sink. Rinse the sink. Use the cork from a wine bottle to scrub away pot marks. Repeat the steps until your cast iron sink is clean. Dry down the sink.

Answer: Pour the baking soda and vinegar into a bowl and use a spoon to mix the solution together. As you mix the two ingredients together, it should start to form a paste. If the solution is too thick, add more vinegar to it. Use a sponge to rub the baking soda and vinegar paste into your sink. Continue to work in circular motions until you've removed all the dirt and scum. Clean the sink with water from the faucet. Use a cotton cloth to help remove all of the paste. Scratches left on the basin and sides of your cast iron sink are called pot marks and are created by pots and pans. These lines or marks can be worked out by using a wine bottle cork. Scrub the area with the cork until the scratches have been removed. The soft cork will wipe away any marks without scratching the finish on your sink. Continue to rinse and re-wash your cast iron sink until it is shiny and spotless. You should perform a deep cleaning when your sink gets overly dirty, or once a month for maintenance. Wipe down the sink after you've rinsed it with a dry cotton cloth. Get all of the moisture and leftover cleaning solution off the surface and inside the basin of your sink.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Remove any pressure from the affected area. Use supplements. Avoid picking the scabs. Avoid harsh solutions on facial wounds. Refrain from moving your facial muscles too much. Use an ice pack. Avoid heat on the wound.

Answer:
Some facial wounds are caused by the pressure of something rubbing on the delicate skin of the face. This may be due to an oxygen tube or even eyeglasses. If this is the cause of your facial wound, remove the source of the wound for periods of time, especially while it is healing. If you are not sure how to change the way you wear your eyeglasses or oxygen tubes, talk to your doctor. One way to help sores heal quickly is to improve your immune system with dietary supplements. This includes vitamins like vitamins C, B, D, and E. Fish oil and zinc are also help to promote healing and to stop infections of the skin.[Image:Quickly Heal Open Sores on Your Face Step 12.jpg|center]] When your open wounds start to scab over, don't pick at the scabs. Picking at them can slow the healing process and lead to scarring. Leave the scar alone. Continue adding petroleum jelly to the wound to help keep the scab moist. When treating wounds on your face, don't try to clean them with harsh solutions. This can damage the injured tissue or irritate the wound, which will slow the healing process. Don't use antibacterial solutions, hydrogen peroxide, or iodine solutions. As your wound is healing, try to limit how much you use the muscles around the wound. If you move your muscles, you could irritate and pull at the wound, which can slow the healing process. Try not to smile, chew, or talk with exaggerated movements. Take it easy as your wound heals. If your open wound has swelling around it, try using an ice pack. Take a cold compress or ice wrapped in a towel and place it on the wound for around 10 to 20 minutes. You can do this multiple times a day. Never place ice directly on the wounds. This could cause your face to burn. To reduce irritation and swelling around your wound, you should avoid applying heat to the area. Do not wash your face in hot water or take a hot shower. You also shouldn't use heating pads, eat hot or spicy foods, or drink hot fluids.
