• Artificial houseplants may have evolved to look strikingly realistic today, but they should be avoided at all costs. The reason: While they need zero care, they don’t bring any of the benefits to a home environment that a real plant does (for example, purifying the air). Plus, these fake plants will eventually be tossed, which just ends up clogging landfills. If you don’t have a green thumb, look for low-maintenance real plants that need infrequent watering and little to no light to live. Trust me, you won’t kill it.
DEAR HARRIETTE: I recently received a text from my oldest son, 46, who is in therapy and wants me to apologize for the various house moves we made when my three children were young. His father left me for another woman, we divorced, and I struggled to raise the three kids with very little child support. I worked full-time, but the wages weren’t the best. It was a difficult time in my life, and I did the best I could. I was always successful at my jobs, and I put my kids first at all opportunities.
