Pisani gave parents 8 principles upon which parents must be ready to engage in a conflict with their children over. These principles ranged everything from spending more time in nature and reading, to being kind with others and thinking critically.

The BodyForge Human Performance Institute coach emphasised the importance of such principles. He said that mobile phones and screens, which he described as quasi-demonic, entered our homes and ruined fruitful conversations at the dinner table and having a will to work and grow.

‘There is no instruction manual to being a good parent’ said Pisani. ‘One needs to be very attentive to do the best one can do in raising kids.’ He said that no matter what one does, arguments are inevitable and that if they are to happen, they should at least happen over the management of values and principles.

The truck appears to speed past the moving vehicle, pushing it against that pavement and were it not for the driver hitting the breaks, the incident would have been much worse.

“He should be taken off the roads as he is clearly not fit to be taking on the responsibility of driving such a large vehicle. He is a hazard on the road,” she said in the post.

What do you make of this?

Maltese graffiti artist pays tribute to Zelenskyy with amazing art

Jun 8 2022

In his latest art piece, internationally acclaimed local graffiti artist Twitch put up a caricature of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as movie hero Rambo.

The artwork depicts Zelenskyy as a rocket-launching macho-man Rambo followed by two war tanks on the backdrop of the Ukrainian flag.

The art was inspired by ‘First Blood’ and is intended to ‘honour the determination of the Ukrainian people following the 100 day mark of resistance of Putin’s twisted invasion.’

Twitch is no stranger to such controversial street art. Having toured Europe to leave his iconic tags and burns which deal various hot topics, Twitch raised some eyebrows back in 2018 following a piece which ‘showcases the surreal situation in Malta.’

The island, he had said, ‘is run by vultures eager to scavenge as much cash as possible whilst all the serious issues seem to get conveniently swept under the carpet.’ He said that under the carpet we can find the ‘the death of the environment, Daphne’s bombed car, Pilatus bank and Panama air.’

Twitch does not shy away from spraying such political commentary through his exquisite art, taking jabs at even International crises and political realities.
