Avoiding the Comment Section

One of my favorite things to do during my lunch break is reading the comment sections on Facebook. These dramatic exchanges rival a soap opera!

One would think there wouldn’t be much drama past the occasional “not my style” kind of comment. Well, one would be wrong! Sometimes the group admins even have to turn off the comment section.

As great as the holiday season seems, it can also be some of the most difficult days for those coping with a new normal without a loved one by their side.
