It’s not about you
Bullies live with their own history that may contribute to their actions. While bullying is painful to you, it is more about them than about you.

When conf...
Set Consequences
When a psychological manipulator insists on violating your boundaries, and won’t take “no” for an answer, deploy consequence.
Effectively articulated, consequence gives pause to the manipulative individual, and compels her or him to shift from violation to respect.
Know How To Say “No”
Diplomatically but firmly. A well articulated “no” allows you to stand your ground while maintaining a workable relationship.

DNA home tests
Some problems arise regarding DNA home tests about what happens after the results of land.
- Storage of sensitive genetic information. An open-source DNA testing site was recently used by the police to identify a killer.
- Emotional side effects after receiving confusing or life-changing results.
DNA home test variances
Many who have done a DNA home test begin to question their family heritage and wonder if they might have been misled. However, taking DNA tests from different companies reveal wildly varying results. There are a few reasons for this:
- The companies are only looking at very recent DNA samples, from a relatively small group, in one specific database.
- The databases are skewed towards different parts of the world. Some have more American customers and other more British or Australian customers.
- These companies don't ask about the genetics of the past, and which of those past inferred genetic clusters we get our ancestry from.
- We probably inherit very few genes from our ancestors. DNA is inherited in “chunks” that break up the further back in time you go.
- There are ancestors from whom you inherit no DNA.
