Why Moms Everywhere Aren't Sure It's A Good Thing

Mothers everywhere are sharing their opinions about a new controversial topic: Whether or not it's a good idea to glue bows onto the heads of babies in order to make identifying their gender easier. Some mothers absolutely love the idea and they think it's an easy way to make their babies look cute and feminine. Others just don't care for the idea of putting glue on a baby's head and don't want anything to do with it. Those that don't do this, though, seem to harshly criticize the parents that do.

Now before you start worrying about people using super glue to put bows onto their children, you might want to know what they're actually using - Girlie Glue.

Girlie Glue is a sticky paste made out of agave nectar and water (which makes it chemical free and organic) and is easy to wash out with water or can be wiped off with baby wipes. However, the idea of gluing accessories onto female babies (which is what Girlie Glue is geared towards) doesn't seem right to some people.

Don't get me wrong, I think bows and headbands on babies are really cute. However, I personally do not see the appeal in gluing a bow to a baby's head just so people can identify the gender. What's the point? Most babies look like cute little potatoes anyway. There's just no sense in putting a bow on a potato.

I looked up the product reviews on Amazon and they are overwhelmingly positive. 91% of customers gave a five-star review. While scrolling through the reviews, I found that not only are parents using Girlie Glue on their human babies but on their furry children as well.

I saw how pet moms and dads used the product on their fur-babies and they absolutely love it! The glue seems to stick better on animals than it does human babies because animals have more hair for the glue to stick. If this is something you might be interested in, it makes for incredibly adorable pictures of your favorite dog or cat. From what I've read, you can also just as easily get the glue left over in your baby's fur as other parents get the glue out of their human baby's hair (again, with warm water or baby wipes). Perhaps the inventor of Girlie Glue is marketing the product towards the wrong group.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
