We need to talk about Kevin McCallister. As a six-year-old, I saw him as someone to be revered. He was brave, Christmassy and able to eat ice cream without permission. For myself, and many children at the time, he was a suburban hero.
But during the next 25 years and upon many repeat viewings of Home Alone, my thoughts on Macaulay Culkin’s home-defending brute have changed rather radically. What appeared like selfless heroics in 1990 were in fact signs of early on-set antisocial personality disorder.

Easter is in memory of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon between March, 22, and April, 25. The 40 days before Easter are called Lent. Just before Easter, schools and colleges usually close. Students have a week or ten days of spring vacation. Easter is a church holiday, and many churches have an outdoor sunrise service. People give each other presents of eggs which are the symbol of new life. There is a popular belief that wearing three new things on Easter will bring good luck throughout the year.
