In the video, Mom’s ex-husband arrives to pick up their son for the weekend. Instead of making a quick exit, he steps inside to catch up with the boy's stepdad and spend quality time with his ex-wife’s younger children. The wholesome interaction captured in the video is truly endearing.

“When your ex is only supposed to pick up his son… but he comes in to see your husband, and your other children,” the woman wrote over the heartwarming footage.
She added, “I’m so lucky to have two mature men who have spent the last nine years getting along… for his sake. And how nice for my children I’ve had since, to love seeing their big brother’s dad, too.”

Remember that progress, no matter how small, is still progress. Focus on creating a loving environment for your children and know that with time, understanding, and communication, even the most challenging relationships can improve. There is always hope for a better tomorrow.
How Technology Makes You Stressed
It seems like every single aspect of our lives is dependent on technology. We’re constantly looking at screens. Did you know that too much technology led to stress, symptoms of depression, and sleep disorders? That’s what scientists say.
Young adults, who are excessively using mobile phones, are the ones who suffer the greatest consequences. Researchers from University of Gothenburg found that mobile phones and computers affected the mental health of young adults. That’s serious!
How Technology Makes You Stressed
Why does that happen?
Here are 4 ways technology can increase your stress without you even noticing:
You’ll Do Better with Less Screen Time
You’re doing everything to relax, but you’re still stressed out every single day? Have you tried to take a break from technology? That’s exactly what you should do if you want to experience the following benefits:
You’ll be more productive
Yes, some productivity apps can help you do more work in less time. However, they also keep you tied down to the screen, and you don’t need that. If your day involves less technology, you won’t waste time on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, and all other distracting websites. Instead of wasting time, you’ll be using and saving time. Suddenly, you’ll notice there’s more space for reading, exercise, conversations, and a nap in the afternoon.
You’ll experience life
You’re hiking and enjoying beautiful views high in the mountain. Do you feel obliged to post photos of that day on Instagram. Don't! Just, don’t! Take a deep breath. See the nature through not through a phone camera, but with your eyes and soul. Memorize that feeling. Relax. Taking photos for Instagram doesn’t give you that deep connection with nature and life in general.
You’ll go back to good-old talks
Written communication is useful sometimes, but it doesn’t convey the emotions your voice does. If you start writing fewer messages and start making actual phone calls, you’ll feel much more connected with your friends and family.
Life with Less Technology: How to Do It
That’s the hardest part. When technology becomes part of your life, it’s difficult to stay away from it. No one is telling you to through away the iPad and every other device you own. Use them when you need to. However, you’ll make a huge difference in your life if you use them less. Start with small steps:
Since technology makes you stressed, the solution is simple: use it less. Try this experiment: a weekend with no technology. Then, take it further: no technology after working hours. One TV show is okay and half an hour on social media is okay. However, promise to yourself that you won’t break those limits. You’ll improve your overall lifestyle with that simple decision.
