A quick definition of COLA:

Term: COLA

Definition: COLA stands for Cost-of-Living Adjustment. It is a way to adjust salaries or benefits to keep up with the rising cost of goods and services. For example, if the cost of living goes up by 3%, a COLA of 3% would be added to a person's salary or benefits to help them keep up with the increased expenses.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: COLA is an abbreviation for Cost-of-Living Adjustment. It refers to an increase in wages or benefits that is made to keep up with the rising cost of living.

Example: Many companies offer their employees a COLA each year to help them keep up with inflation. For example, if the cost of living increases by 3%, an employee who earns $50,000 per year might receive a COLA of $1,500 to help offset the higher cost of goods and services.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a COLA works in practice. When the cost of living goes up, wages and benefits may not be enough to cover the increased expenses. A COLA helps to bridge that gap by providing additional income to employees. This can help them maintain their standard of living and avoid falling behind financially.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
