So far I have become aware of two scams regarding the Acai Berry — one is a pyramid scheme where you have to pay a large sum of money to begin selling acai berry juice and other products. The company is hoping for you to recruit other members to gain a referral — however as we know from other pyramid operations the only ones making big money are those at the top.
Secondly there is another company offering a free trial of pills, however, some people have reported actually getting charged for the sample or others have reported that the company will just keep sending you pills (without you ordering them) that they are charging you for. Be careful out there!

Teenagers are a tough group - but teenage girls can be brutal. I think that is one of the hardest things a mother has to do is let her daughter go through those awful middle school and highschool years.
Girls can be best friends one day and then the next day they hate each other. Unlike boys, however, where they decide they aren’t going to be friends and just don’t talk or hang out; girls have to call each other names and humilate each other in front of the other kids in the class.
I remember being on both sides of that situation when I was a kid. I have attempted to stress to my daughter how devastating that can be to the other girl so that (hopefully) she doesn’t ever do that to another little girl. However, I cannot control how the other kids act. Ugh — I’m not sure if it is more painful for her or me??
