Our articles are written with empathy, aiming to support readers through challenges and difficult moments. We aim to be inclusive by using language that is welcoming and respectful to all readers, regardless of background, culture, age, or identity. We seek to create a safe space for everyone who visits our site and avoid any content that could be perceived as judgmental, exclusionary, or offensive.
