How we choose to raise our children and the lessons we decide to ingrain in them from an early age differs from parent to parent.
It’s only natural, of course. Some mothers and fathers take a more disciplined approach, for example, while others prefer to let their kids go through a try and fail cycle so that they can learn right and wrong through their own experiences.
Now, for the most part, how one chooses to style their son or daughter’s upbringing is their business, no one else’s. Yet that doesn’t stop people commenting and criticizing online every time a debate is sparked over some parental decision or another…
I remember when I was younger, doing chores was considered part and parcel of everyday life. I mean for me and my siblings, of course, not only my mother.
Doing dishes, making beds, helping to prepare food before mealtimes… the list goes on and on.
I understand times change, but in my mind getting children to help out with tasks around the house – providing there’s no danger involved – is a great way to instill values and a worth ethic that will come in handy later on.
It seems, though, that not everyone agrees. According to reports, one mother found this out the hard way a few years back after she uploaded pictures of her son and shared her method of giving him chores to do with the internet.
The mom in question, 22-year-old Nikkole Paulun, reportedly explained how she proudly put her 7-year-old son, Lyle, to work around the house, where he would help out with things like cooking and cleaning.
Nothing too dramatic, I’m sure we can all agree, but that didn’t stop online detractors from verbally attacking her and expressing concern over the potential impact on the child’s emotional well-being.
The bulk of the critics targeted the fact that the mother had shared her son’s chores online, not only potentially making other parents question themselves, but also flagging the idea that the child might not want to have his daily activities shared with a large number of strangers online.
One woman went as far as to write in the comments that Nikkole couldn’t just let her child “be your slave. Or to do the chores that you yourself don’t want to do.”
Another wrote: “So I take it you can do everything ur teaching ur son to do or are you just putting pressure on ur child?”
A third added: “Don’t get me wrong… a child should know responsibility. .. but should not be operating a stove that young.“
A fourth wrote: “Lazy mother’s are sweeping the country. It’s good to teach them while they’re young but i notice alot of these single mom’s are just raising their boy’s to be the man that they wish they always had.“
There were many who defended Nikkole in the comments, too, with her post gaining viral status after it garnered over 8,000 comments and 156,000 interactions on Facebook.
Nikkole herself insisted that she enjoys doing housework and that her son Lyle “just helps along the way & earns allowance as well.
What’s more, she added that her then-one-year-old daughter, Ellie, would be following in her elder siblings steps and doing the same thing when she was a little older.

Fаns fееl sоrry fоr Jеnnifеr Lореz аftеr Веn Аfflесk’s рhоtоs with Jеnnifеr Gаrnеr wеnt virаl
With the few exceptions of celebrities who have stayed together for years and are still going strong, most Hollywood marriages eventually end up in divorce, and the public is always eager to learn more when A-list couples start to separate. Recently, the media has been obsessed with the relationship between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, who tied the knot in July 2022 following a second engagement.
Rumors of Trouble in Paradise
Amid rumors of their split, photos of Affleck and his ex-wife Jennifer Garner have gone viral, heating the speculations even further. The former couple has been seen together in Santa Monica, which has stirred up various reactions on social media. Some fans of Lopez have expressed their displeasure, with one person calling Garner “a dаngеrous, obsessed woman, using kids to control a weak man, one with addiction and depression issues.”
Another fan added, “I’m happy Affleck and Garner split because him being unhappy with her was the reason for his alcohol addiction.”
However, others fondly remember the days when Affleck and Garner were together. “Ben and Garner are the real ‘Bennifer.’ They belong together with their kids but Ben is a fool,” one commenter nostalgically remarked.
Co-Parenting and Moving On
The reality is that Affleck and Garner have remained friends who co-parent their children effectively. They have been seen hugging on occasion, dressed casually during their outings. Affleck was spotted in blue jeans, a gray long-sleeved top, and white Air-Jordan Nikes, while Garner opted for gray slacks, a long-sleeved black top, and sunglasses.
Interestingly, it appears that Garner and Lopez also get along well. A source close to them described their relationship as “very cordial and very healthy and functioning.”
Garner, who has entered a new relationship following her divorce from Affleck, is reportedly happy with her current family dynamics. A source close to her stated, “Garner is in a great space and feels good about where things currently stand with her new family dynamics.” The source also added that Affleck and Garner “have open communication and both are working to make this transition the best it could possibly be.”
Affleck’s Professional Success
While many believe that Affleck’s personal life is falling apart, his professional life is thriving. In August, the film he co-produces and stars in, “The Instigators,” will be released. This serves as a reminder that despite the turbulence in his personal relationships, Affleck continues to find success in his career.
In the world of Hollywood, where relationships are often under the microscope, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, and Jennifer Lopez are navigating their personal dynamics while maintaining their professional commitments. Their ability to co-parent effectively and sustain cordial relationships amidst rumors and public scrutiny is commendable.
