ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Constant problem

Okay, so sometimes in life, there are things that just keep coming up over and over again. You might call this a "constant problem."

Imagine if every time you went to go play with your blocks, they always fell over and you had to start building again from the beginning. That would be a constant problem because it's something that keeps happening and it's hard to fix.

Just like with your blocks, sometimes things in real life can be a constant problem. It might be something like always forgetting to bring your lunch to school or feeling nervous before a big test.

The important thing to remember is that even though it can be frustrating, there are usually ways to fix constant problems. Maybe you can put a reminder on your phone to remember your lunch or practice relaxation techniques to calm your nerves before a test.

With a little bit of effort and problem-solving, you can overcome your constant problems and feel more in control.
