Two years ago I took child support out on my child%26#039;s father. He is such a dead beat...the worker sent a letter to his residence in which he 37 years old and still lives at home . His mother calls the worker to reschedule the first appt. and since then he has been missing.. He also got 7 other kids that he havent paid child support for since 3-2006 and that was $6 a piece...I wish I would of known he was like that before I had a baby by him.....But again at the time I was 16 and he was 26 ( which I didnt know that either)...He is able to buy new shoes, cars, and clothes all the time . While me a full time student and worker provides for our child. The government don%26#039;t want to help the people trying ...they feel as if you can afford everything. But the people that don%26#039;t try and just sit at home, they are taking care of..I don%26#039;t want any hand-outs.. I know I am a Strong female...But I want to know when North Carolina%26#039;s Child support system is going to start doing their job, %26amp;find the jerk
What is wrong with the social service child support offices in North Carolina?
$6.00 a piece - oh my gosh - it wouldn%26#039;t be worth my trouble trying to get anything from a lowlife from him. He will always be like this - you can%26#039;t get money from somebody that doesn%26#039;t have it... he doesn%26#039;t own anything or have any money.
but, if you don%26#039;t think the child support services are doing there job - do some investigating yourself. call his relatives - don%26#039;t tell them who you are - find out where he works or where he lives - and then give that info to the C.S office - they can%26#039;t go hunt him down if they don%26#039;t know where he lives.
you know his friends - you know his parents - you know his relatives - So -become an investigator!
Reply:Well I want to know when Tennessee%26#039;s Juvenile Court system is going to start doing their jobs too. I don%26#039;t have any children but my boyfriend does and he is on child support. They take over half of his pay check every pay period which leaves him with hardly any money to live off of. He loves his kids and wants to take care of them but he needs to be allowed to take care of himself as well. He has tried to set court dates to get it lowered but they always give him a stupid @ss reason as to why they cannot set a court date for him. I feel bad for him that he can%26#039;t afford to do a lot of the simple things like buy clothes and shoes for himself and keep gas in his car. I think that whole system is screwed and people on both sides of the fence get played and can%26#039;t benefit from it. There needs to be some harsh regulations against those that do not do what they are suppose to do and some rewards for those who do abide by the rules. However, I don%26#039;t see that happening anytime soon though. Good luck.
Reply:Well I want to know when the crappy county of San Bernardino is going to get it%26#039;s Child Support System right.. his cow of an ex AND her sleazy attorney.. filed a temporary order 2 years ago that has my fiance paying support for TWO children and they only have ONE!!! We have shown them the proof and they say they understand but because it is a temporary order there is NOTHING they can do... so my fiance is being garnished for 2780$ a month and he doesn%26#039;t even make that!!!!! So every month they take all but 400$ of his checks and he is STILL going in arrears for about 1500$ and the cow sits on her butt living with mommy and daddy, refuses to let him have contact with his daughter and won%26#039;t do anything to finish the divorce because her lawyer has told her once there is a real support order her gravy train is over and she will have to pay him back all that he has over paid..
The system is completely jacked up and we are paying for it (literally)

Reply:Clothing is an incredibly difficult industry to profit from. You will have to do research to find all of your costs. Where will the clothing be manufactured, are you planning on designing everything yourself? Where will you be selling these clothes? You need to research all of these things. Most clothing companies suffer huge losses for the first 5 years of operation, in fact clothing lines have the second highest degree of failure from startups (#1 is restaurants). You mention that your target audience is children, are you ready to make entire lines of designs four times a year? You need to have your line ready to sell at least one sometimes two seasons in advance. You may want to start out by finding a local screen printer and making shirts based off your designs, that way then try selling locally. It looks easy to start a clothing line when you see celebrities opening them left and right, but remember they have millions at their disposal. So what you need to look at first is the supply chain.
If you are designing the clothes yourself, if so are they designs in a format the manufacturer can use?
Which textile company are you going to use, are they going to put logos, designs on themselves or is a seperate company going to do it? Do you need screen printing or embroidery on top of that? How will the clothes be delivered to you? Where will they be stored once you have them? Who will sell your clothes? How will you get them to the stores? How do you get paid from the stores?
It all sounds very negative, but these are just things you have to overcome, one step at a time. Build quality relationships with the whole supply chain and all of your kindness will come back to you on your product from design to market. Good luck!!
Reply:O.K. Here it goes. Just a few things to keep in mind.
First you need to know how much is the cost per unit.
$5.00 a unit??? does it include hang tags, company label, price tags, bar code and polybag.
Will it be shipped all together or will it be boxed by style, size or combination of both.
Then you need to add your shipping cost.
the cost manufacturing company will charge to ship items to you.
Freight or airway?? (FOB) airway is more expensive but you will get your items quicker.
Then there is customs duty.
Depends on the fabric and customs code.
Usually $16.5% of the invoice. but can go up to 19% depending on the country you are importing from.
If you are ordering more than $2,000 you will also, need a broker as customs will not release your items without an entry on invoices more than $2000 and a broker will provide the customs entry forms as well as making sure your order is released from customs.
So, you will need to add $150-$200 for brokers fees.
See http://www.cbp.gov for details.
Then you will have to add expenses....
Cost of internet service if you are selling on line.
Cost of electricity, etc...etc... (Cost of running your company)
Cost of storage if any.
Payroll (paying employees if any or paying yourself)
You get the picture.
I hope that this has helped.
If you have any questions we are happy to help as we were exactly were you are now a couple of years ago.

Middleschool horror story project- did it scare you?
It was private property, but kids used to trespass there all the time. But no one ever trespassed there any more. Not since that kid vanished, not since all of those scary stories and rumors rushed from there in a tidal wave of fear and confusion.
We had never thought twice about the spillway. It never occurred to us to even go there, that was, until we were warned not to.
Jake’s mom told us that we could play anywhere but there. We knew about the kid who vanished there, without a trace. But there was nothing supernatural about it. They could’ve been kidnapped or had fallen in the river. I didn’t understand why his mother believed all of those rumors, I assumed that was why she didn’t want us to go there.
We ran outside, Jake, his sister Mari and I. Mari spread her arms and ran about, imitating an airplane. Jake looked down on her. I laughed and watched.
We stayed close to the house and played for a short while. I was the one who cut the fun short.
“Let’s go to the waterway.” I said.
There was a silence, their young eyes staring wide.
“…Ok,” said Jake after a long pause, covering his fear. He began to walk down the long dirt path. Mari followed obediently, and I picked up my pace to lead the way.
“Aren’t we not allowed?” asked Mari nervously as the spillway came into view.
“No, it’s fine,” I said. The air became very still, yet the leaves stirred and rustled slightly; pulled by tiny invisible strings of air. We climbed over the fence; Jake helped Mari make it over.
The hill behind the fence was steep, weeds and dirt descended into jagged rocks and water.
“This place isn’t scary at all!” bluffed Jake, slipping down the steep muddy path carved down the hill. Small, worn down footprints were already in the mud. Where they the child’s? Or some other trespasser’s? Mari and I followed behind him. We were filled with nervous excitement, perhaps feeling more enjoyment than fear, and fearing breaking the rules more than the place itself. As we reached the stream, we took off our shoes, jumped from rock to rock, playfully dipping our toes into the freezing water and overreacting to the sudden change in temperature. Soon we forgot that anyone had ever vanished there.
Jake stood on one of the lager rocks, beating his chest and crying out a jungle call. Mari laughed and laughed.
“Ok, ok, it wasn’t that funny!” shouted Jake from atop of his rock. Mari continued to laugh. I wondered if she was trying to annoy her brother. She just wouldn’t stop.
Mari continued to laugh for another minute, and Jake was getting angry.
“Shut up!” he yelled.
I glanced at Mari, not really annoyed but puzzled. Then I noticed something odd. She had a troubled look on her face, as if she thought something was wrong, as if she couldn’t control her laughing. Then I noticed that as time passed, her laugh became louder and more hysterical, it began shaking her so hard that she had trouble keeping her balance upon the rock.
“STOP LAUGHING!” Jake called out angrily. He jumped off of his rock and marched angrily to her. He grabbed her shoulders and shook her. She continued to laugh; it was no use. Jake sighed and let go; but as he let go, she began to fall backwards, not regaining her balance. It happened quicker than any of us could help.
All we could do was watch as the event unfolded, paralyzed, eyes wide, hearts nearly stopped. It happened so fast, yet it felt excruciatingly slow.
Mari’s thin dark hair flew forward as her delicate body fell the opposite direction. As her body met the ground, she bounced back and then settled, her limbs splayed lifelessly across the ground. White, pointed growths shot through her body like bamboo shoots, their tips stained with blood, her clothes dyed red. Her eyes were half open and rolled back into her head. Just when we thought she was dead; she lifted her head as far as her pinned-down body would let her. She opened her mouth and continued to laugh weakly, the spikes moving in and out as her chest expanded and contracted. Each laugh sounded bubbly and liquid as blood gushed from her mouth. And every small laugh was weaker than the last, and soon they died away completely. Her head fell back harshly against the ground, creating a halo of slick, gooey blood around her head. She had died.
“Ahh…AHHHHHHH!” Jake screamed miserably, running blindly up the hill, slipping and scrambling to his feet. He screamed an agonizing, piercing scream that sounded as if he himself were dying. I still couldn’t move, for I was petrified.
I looked up the hill in a daze, averting my eyes from Mari’s corpse. Jake was at the top of the hill, but he seemed to be clawing and fighting the air, as if some invisible thing were standing in his way. I had to run. I had to run. Why couldn’t I run?
“What are you?!” Jake cried, thrashing at the nothingness. Suddenly he was cut short as a huge, gaping hole grew through his back, blood and insides pouring like waterfalls, multiple holes spontaneously emerging through his soft body in all directions until he became a pulp, and fell lifelessly down the hill, head first.
I have to get out. Why couldn’t I get out? My eyes were wide, my heartbeat so hard and pounding that it felt like it would burst. Jake’s headfirst body crashed into the rocks with a sharp cracking noise, his limbs bending in strange directions, his eyes were as wide as mine. Tears rolled down my cheeks, I crouched into an upright fetal position and shook violently.
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no” I murmured.
Suddenly, my head lifted up on its own, forcing me to look forward. I couldn’t control it.
It was a grotesque deer-like creature, with massive, deformed antlers that had grown in a gnarled mass; hundreds of points and branches of the antlers intertwined and stuck out like blades. The monster’s face was long and bone white, resembling a skull more than a face. It was oddly human-like, yet not, and it had no eyes, just a shadowy suggestion of an eye on the right side of its face. Its body was much larger than a deer- hairy, bulky yet awkward and thin, bony and stiff, almost zombie-like, with gashes and flesh exposed all over. It smelled like death, looked like death. It looked almost unreal, as if it were a nightmare.
“Who are you?” I asked shakily.
“I am you,” said the beast. Its voice was Mari’s.

Do you know what Operation Christmas Child is?
Every year, millions of shoe boxes filled with basic things (pencils, paper, soap, toothbrushes, etc.) are sent throughout the world to children.
I got involved a few years ago and got totally addicted! Collecting items all year is so fun, coming up with unique and useful things to send the children.
If you%26#039;ve never heard of this, or have and want more information, please do yourself (and a needy child) a favor, log on to Samaritans Purse%26#039;s website; www.samaritanspurse.org today and check it out!
Make a child%26#039;s day...
Collection begins November 12th and ends November 19th.

I will definitely do that and have my 2 small girls [ages 3 and 5 yrs. old] help me fill them!

We%26#039;ve done it in the past, I take the kids to the store and for the most part let them pick out the items and we double check that all choices are acceptable from the list and purchase............
I have been surprised that the kids were both surprised at how much can fit into the boxes (we usually buy the %26#039;plastic%26#039; show boxes with the attached lids) and we are always surprised at what we spend. Makes them realize their list should short and prioritized.......

This list any good to present in court?
Is this list any good to show to a lawyer, in a child costody battle?
1. Several counts of harassing phone calls to the Defendant.
2. Also several calls to the child in question, making him cry and requiring him to talk to her in solitude.
3. On numerous occasions the Defendant received phone calls from the child, crying, wanting to come back to the Defendants residence after events at his mother’s residence.
4. Said the Defendant was not allowing the child to be an individual; which in her case meant: being a “gangster”, sagging pants, tattoos, piercings, and listening to vulgar and inappropriate music.
5. The Plaintiff has purchased and allowed the purchase of vulgar CD’s.
6. The Plaintiff has no religious practices in her home.
7. Has told the child that Hell is an imaginary place, made up to frighten people into complying with the law, which gives the child the impression that he can misbehave without consequence.
8. The Plaintiff’s husband has been known to slap the child and the other children in the house in the back of the head. This being one of the reasons the child had called his father to come and pick him up.
9. The Plaintiff’s eldest son was seeing a therapist for anger issues.
10. The Plaintiff also has left the child and his brother unattended, where they walked from their home to a GoodWill store and a BlockBuster and back unnoticed.
11. The Plaintiff also has left her children in the care of an irresponsible babysitter, who the child said hit him in the face with a shoe.
12. Member of the Plaintiff’s immediate family was arrested for being associated with drug dealers.
13. The Plaintiff has had numerous episodes where she shouted at and used profane language with the Defendant, where the Defendant neither shouted back nor used profane language, in front of the child.
14. The child’s unsatisfactory behavior started as early as the first grade, while he was in his mother’s care. Such as: getting kicked off the bus, bad homework habits, and unsatisfactory grades, failing both first and third grade.
15. Recently the Plaintiff withheld the child from a church event (vacation bible school).
16. The Plaintiff has three children from three different men and four marriages, one of which was annulled one or two weeks later. The man she is married to now is the same man who abandoned her and her eldest son. Also is guilty of several counts of adultery.
17. The Plaintiff has no visible means of financial support other than a mentally disabled man, who has no relation to her and lives in her home.
18. The Plaintiff has not paid any form of child support or financial obligation as required by the parenting plan.
This list any good to present in court?
very long list....but a good list.
the one thing I would add is, where applicable, dates and times. like items 1, 2 %26amp; 3...dates and times
and for the future - keep answering machine message tape to substantiate the dates and times - so he can%26#039;t deny.
#4- i am sure you don%26#039;t mean the child is a gangster...reword it to say the he called her that name based upon her appearances (ie saggy...)

very long list....but a good list.
the one thing I would add is, where applicable, dates and times. like items 1, 2 %26amp; 3...dates and times
and for the future - keep answering machine message tape to substantiate the dates and times - so he can%26#039;t deny.

How do I get my 8 month old lab to stop chewing up EVERYTHING?
His chewing has increased recently- has ruined 3 pairs of shoes, remote control, cell phone, numerous barbie dolls (his favorite), ate a candle, even demolishes his own toys and often eats the pieces. I try to keep things put up- but he even will climb on the furniture to get to things that are out of reach. I don%26#039;t know what else to do. Please help- replacing my child%26#039;s dolls is becoming expensive and I worry if he continues to eat the materials he could be harmed.
How do I get my 8 month old lab to stop chewing up EVERYTHING?
Labs are world-class chewers and they need things to chew on. They can%26#039;t help it..it%26#039;s just instinct.
You need to get him things that he can use to satisify his chewing urge.
Those big dog bones from the animal shop are good. Don%26#039;t get a butcher shop bone, though, they can splinter.
My dogs also LOVE their Kong toys..and you can put treats or peanut butter in them and that keeps them busy for hours.
There are very few toys my dogs can play with without tearing them up.
Those rope bone tug toys are also good, for a while, anyway.
Don%26#039;t bother with squeaky toys. Your dog will chew them up just to get at the squeaker.
On, and as for getting on the furniture, your dog is not well-trained enough to be running around the house on his own and stealing things. Next, he%26#039;ll EAT the furniture. Trust me. My lab ate up a whole section of carpeting when he was a pup.
You need to confine him to a room where he can%26#039;t do too much harm when you aren%26#039;t able to watch him. When you are able to be with him, you have to teach him the meaning of the word no.
Keep a leash on him. When he goes to get on the furniture, tug it and tell him NO. Never, ever allow him on the furniture, because he%26#039;ll take that as a sign of equality with you. You are the boss.
And keep things out of sight. Out of sight, out of mind. If your daughter%26#039;s Barbies are in a toy chest with a lid sealed, your dog won%26#039;t get to them. If your shoes are in the closet with the door shut, he can%26#039;t chew them.
And if he%26#039;s chewing on something, yell NO and take it away from him, even if by then it%26#039;s ruined. And then give him something he%26#039;s allowed to chew on and praise him for chewing on that instead.
Oh, and my vet says labs don%26#039;t have brains until they%26#039;re about two years old..and then it%26#039;s like the mailman suddenly delivered them.
My lab%26#039;s four years old now and he%26#039;s an angel. My shepherd mix is two, and she%26#039;s pretty good too. However, they are still known to chew up a dog toy or frisbee now and then. So hang in there. Your dog%26#039;s just doing what%26#039;s normal to him..you just have to be smarter.
Reply:we have a lab that used to do the same thing until we got him some pressed rawhides. they dont look like regular rawhides, they are actually formed by using little bits of rawhides encased in a really hard shell
Reply:Welcome to Lab world. Sounds like he%26#039;s bored. An 8 month old need lots of stimulation and activity. He needs to be confined to certain rooms in the house when you are not with him.
I%26#039;m sure he has toys and chew things that belong to him. One thing to do is to get a Kong toy - the black ones are made for large dogs and are almost indestructible- fill it with good stuff and when you catch him chewing something he shouldn%26#039;t , tell him to Leave it and trade for the Kong Toy.
I would definitely enroll him in a dog class. It does wonders for you and your dog. You will learn how to interact with him and give him the proper cues to do what you expect.
Also, be mindful that labs tend to maintain their puppy ways for quite some time - up to 2 years or sometimes longer. They are great dogs, but desparately need training, activity and positive attention.
Good luck to both of you.
Reply:I have a 3 month old black lab and its the same way, everytime I see him he is chewing on something. You just have to keep saying no and crate him when he is bad so he knows that he gets punished for chewing.
Reply:I have a black Lab, and when we first got him he was about 8mnths old too. It just takes time. He doesn%26#039;t chew like crazy anymore. I think it stops when he turns one. Just lock him up in a crate when you leave, and when you%26#039;re not going to be able to keep a close eye on him. My dog loved chewing up sticks, GIJoe dolls, and any stuffed animals. We would see the eyes lying out in the yard the next day! It should be over soon! Just hold in there!
Reply:Ah yes, welcome to owning a lab - They eat everything and anything they can get their paws on! Most items will make they%26#039;re way out the other end in 24 hours time, just make sure you get him to a vet right away if isn%26#039;t going #2 regularly because he might have something blocking his intestines.
You can try Bitter Apple spray, but my lab likes that too (He eats apples off the ground under the tree). Or try a dab of Tabasco on anything you don%26#039;t want him to touch. Otherwise, the best solution is training, training and more training.
Reply:2 things here to do. #1. Remove the accessibility factor. Don%26#039;t leave these around that the dog chews. Put shoes in a closet or shut your bedroom door. Make sure the children put the toys away and out of reach of the dog. #2. Give your dog plenty of his own toys. Labs are notorious chewers, and even if you take temptations away and leave him no/not enough toys, he WILL find something-the corner of a couch, a chair leg, etc. A variety of different type toys need to be available(stuffed toys, rawhides, nylabones, ropes, etc) and if you see him chewing on something hes not supposed to, take that away and offer a toy instead- when he takes it, PRAISE him! My dog was very %26quot;mouthy%26quot; as a puppy, grabbing at our hands etc, and every time he did, i put a toy in his mouth. Now at age 2, when he gets excited and wants to play, he looks around and finds a toy and come back to us- its become a habit for him.
Reply:Oh the memories.... LOL!
Dogs basically chew out of boredom. Like others have said, buy durable toys (like Kongs) that the dog can%26#039;t destruct. Some have the incredible ability to demolish those too (amazingly enough). Try to take your dog for a walk daily. I know in some places it is near impossible now, but try to get your dog out to release some energy.
The key is to redirect their focus on something else. Kongs with peanut butter inside %26amp; nylabones are my favorite. Also, if your dog is going to be unattended, make sure you have a crate or somewhere you can confine him so he isn%26#039;t left alone to destroy more things!
Good luck!
Reply:NEUTER FIRST,, then obedience classes,,,, then lots and lots of exercise - retrieving, swimming, running....... next get a bucket or basket.... put it in a place in your home that the dog has access too.... fill it up with appropriate toys, tennis balls, bones, nylabones, kongs etc... when you dog starts chewing innappropriately,, say %26quot;UT UH%26quot; in a loud stern voice,,, remove the undesirable object and then take him over to %26quot;his%26quot; toy bucket.. and offer him /show him %26quot;his toys%26quot; this will only take a day or two to teach...... also,,, if you are not home,, crate your pup.. dogs are creatures of habit,, so you want to nip this habit in the bud as soon as possible...... good luckk this method has never failed... so go get his toy box all set up
Reply:It%26#039;s almost impossible to get a puppy to stop chewing, especially at that age. He is most likely teething. The best thing to do is to get him some chew toys of his own. Puppies get bored fast, so make sure you have plenty to keep him occupied. You can also try to keep him isolated. Try kennelling him when you%26#039;re not home. This will keep him from harming himself when you%26#039;re not there to watch him. He will out grow of it soon.
Reply:labs are well known for chewing.you could crate himwhen you are out or use a larged roofed pen in out for too long then keep a close eye on the pup when you are in
Reply:My pit/lab mix is 11 months....he eats EVERYTHING in his path also (a necklace, 3 earings, all his toys we%26#039;ve ever bought, corner of the couch, legs of my chairs, wood, wood chips, anything he can reach in the garbage, remote, etc) Hes been getting better as he gets older. All you can do is try to keep doors shut and things put up. When he climbs to get something tell him NO! (mine goes and lays behind the couch when he gets in trouble)
Reply:They should come with warning labels. Some are much worse than others. My last few haven%26#039;t been too bad until my 8 month Nita the last week or 2. I am going to give up leaving her loose in the house when I am not watching. some you can%26#039;t. A mousetrap is very effective in making a dog leave something alone. Most dogs will stay away from anywhere they were surprised by a snap. The best part is that it is not you that is correcting the dog. It works whether you are around or not. The mousetrap is very patient and is always on task as long as you reset it.
Better than mousetraps when you aren%26#039;t around is the crate. Other dogs may
not be as bad as the young Labs I am plagued with. Still your house and dog
will be much safer with the dog in a crate when you are away. The dog may be
happier in its den than loose in the house. It relaxes, it feels safe in its
den. It rests, the body slows down reducing the need for water and relieving
its self. Dogs that have been crated all along do very well. Many of them
will rest in their crates even when the door is open. I think the plastic
ones give the dog more of a safe, enclosed den feeling. They are harder for
dogs to open too. Metal ones can be put in a corner or covered with
something the dog can%26#039;t pull in and chew. Select
a crate just big enough for the full grown dog to stretch out in.
Leave it some toys. Perhaps a Kong filled with peanut butter. Don%26#039;t leave
anything in the crate the dog might chew up. It will do fine without even any
bedding. You will come home to a safe dog and a house you can enjoy.
Accidents and damaged possessions are the fault of whoever was watching the puppy. When you are watching it, immediately correct it as soon as it goes for anything except its own toys. In a quiet, but firm voice %26#039;%26#039;Bad dog, its name drop!%26#039;%26#039;. Gently remove what ever and replace it with one of her toys, or if older, hold eye contact until the puppy drops it.
A dog that has not been crated since it was little, make take some work.
Start out just putting its toys and treats in the crate. Praise it for going
in. If you have been able to trust it with any bedding, put that in the crate.
Feed it in the crate. This is also an easy way to maintain order at feeding
time for more than one dog.
Reply:I had a lab for 11 years, she just recently passed. I can assure you that he will grow out if it. You have to remember that he is still a puppy and thats what puppies do. Instead of toys try giving him those really large bones (you can find at petsmart or any pet store) that should take him days to chew on. It will keep him occupied. In the meantime, try putting him in a kennel when you leave so he wont have access to shoes and toys when you%26#039;re gone. Good luck....they are wonderful pets, I miss her so much!
Reply:we have had 4 Labs and yes they do love to chew. Crate him when your not home or else you will continue to come home to chewed up things. The more attention you pay to them the better they are. Give him lots of chew toys with ours they were almost 2 before that stopped but damn they are such good dogs! Good Luck
Reply:Oh boy do I know that feeling. The first day I brought my puppy home he age a pair of shoes through my backpack. You may need to put him in a area where he cannot get at things when you are not home to watch him and correct the behavior. If you do not see him in the act it does not good to correct the behavior when you come home and find it because they can%26#039;t remember what they have done. If you can put him outside while gone or in a locked room. ALso the best way is to keep things out of the range or keep doors closed when not int he room with the puppy. Labs love to chew so I would suggest some chongs, these are really durble and you can put treats in them that keeps the dog busy for quite some time. Peanut butter does really good in a chong. I found that worked best with our chewer and in time he may or may not grow out of it. Lab are natural chewers and some don%26#039;t grow out of them.

will rest in their crates even when the door is open. I think the plastic
ones give the dog more of a safe, enclosed den feeling. They are harder for
dogs to open too. Metal ones can be put in a corner or covered with
something the dog can%26#039;t pull in and chew. Select
a crate just big enough for the full grown dog to stretch out in.
Leave it some toys. Perhaps a Kong filled with peanut butter. Don%26#039;t leave
anything in the crate the dog might chew up. It will do fine without even any
bedding. You will come home to a safe dog and a house you can enjoy.
Accidents and damaged possessions are the fault of whoever was watching the puppy. When you are watching it, immediately correct it as soon as it goes for anything except its own toys. In a quiet, but firm voice %26#039;%26#039;Bad dog, its name drop!%26#039;%26#039;. Gently remove what ever and replace it with one of her toys, or if older, hold eye contact until the puppy drops it.
A dog that has not been crated since it was little, make take some work.
Start out just putting its toys and treats in the crate. Praise it for going
in. If you have been able to trust it with any bedding, put that in the crate.
Feed it in the crate. This is also an easy way to maintain order at feeding
time for more than one dog.
Reply:I had a lab for 11 years, she just recently passed. I can assure you that he will grow out if it. You have to remember that he is still a puppy and thats what puppies do. Instead of toys try giving him those really large bones (you can find at petsmart or any pet store) that should take him days to chew on. It will keep him occupied. In the meantime, try putting him in a kennel when you leave so he wont have access to shoes and toys when you%26#039;re gone. Good luck....they are wonderful pets, I miss her so much!
Reply:we have had 4 Labs and yes they do love to chew. Crate him when your not home or else you will continue to come home to chewed up things. The more attention you pay to them the better they are. Give him lots of chew toys with ours they were almost 2 before that stopped but damn they are such good dogs! Good Luck
Reply:Oh boy do I know that feeling. The first day I brought my puppy home he age a pair of shoes through my backpack. You may need to put him in a area where he cannot get at things when you are not home to watch him and correct the behavior. If you do not see him in the act it does not good to correct the behavior when you come home and find it because they can%26#039;t remember what they have done. If you can put him outside while gone or in a locked room. ALso the best way is to keep things out of the range or keep doors closed when not int he room with the puppy. Labs love to chew so I would suggest some chongs, these are really durble and you can put treats in them that keeps the dog busy for quite some time. Peanut butter does really good in a chong. I found that worked best with our chewer and in time he may or may not grow out of it. Lab are natural chewers and some don%26#039;t grow out of them.

I made friends with a woman I met at my child%26#039;s nursery. Although we are very different the kids get on really well and we meet regularly. I feel like I am more of a friend to her than the other way round at times. The issue is that she did not even get me a card for my 40th, did not get me anything when I got married this August after saying both times that she was looking for something and would buy us a present soon! I do not expect it from people but I feel that she has made no effort and has made too many promises. For eg she was going to help me buy shoes for the wedding, help me on the day, etc but nothing materialised - same as the presents or cards. I have made her and her child as well as husband dinner and lunch on many, many occasions but this is hardly ever reciprocated. So I feel that I give a lot and do not get much back. I feel really pissed off basically and wonder what others would do in such a situation. Also she is about to move miles away in 3 wks time.
Friend advice?
Sadly there are two sorts of people on this planet, takers and givers. Your friend obviously is the former and whilst she thinks she is being nice to you by making these promises, she actually cannot bring herself to deliver. May be she is just lazy or she is short of cash and cannot afford the expense, though making a birthday card is hardly rocket science and to help for a wedding costs nothing. Is she a air head? She may have good intentions but forgets...
Your last sentence is the key to get out of your problem. She is moving a long way away. You do not have to invite her round any more, or cook for her and her family. See if she gets in touch with you after she has moved. Don%26#039;t take the first step. The chances are that she will turn to someone else to provide the support you have been giving her as it will be more convenient. She is no great loss as a friend, and a generous and kind person like yourself will not find any difficulty in finding a new friend.
When she goes, wish her well, but do not buy her a leaving present. Just limit yourself to a %26quot;Hope you will be happy in your new home%26quot; note or card, then wait and see...You may get the odd telephone call, but I am convinced this will be rare and short lived.
Put the whole thing behind you and do not demean yourself by giving her a piece of your mind before she leaves. You have the strongest moral ground and have nothing to be ashamed of for dropping her in the circumstances. If she is too insensitive to realise she has been exploiting you and has given very little in return, she is not worth the heartache. She may realise when she has settled in her new home, but I would really not recommend re-energising relations. You are on a hiding to nothing. Let it go !
Reply:Then stop giving so much. And make her on the same level you%26#039;re feeling right now until she understands.
Reply:A blank promise is pissing off,I understand,you just let her go,what else can you expect in such a person?
Reply:with out sounding horrible i think that you should just cut your losses when she moves,i am sure that there are better people out there. a friend should always keep promises
Reply:I agree with Gone Car. As far as the not giving so much, I do not think you will ever loose from being kind. On the other hand, having a bit of limits never hurts.
Since she will be moving soon, again, there is something in yet another poster%26#039;s statement that you might as well carry on as usual. Why bother to hurt all the good feelings? You may have done something to really help the other woman!
Gee, I am really agreeable lately...

Reply:hi, to be a friend is to be there for each other not just for material things but for moral support and a shoulder to cry on and to have a natter ...your friend seems to be using you a little...seeing that she is moving away from you in a few weeks i would just keep trying to make excuses up to why you haven%26#039;t been round or why she can%26#039;t come round and hope that three weeks comes sooner rather than later...you seem like a very nice person doing all that for her so you shouldn%26#039;t find it too hard to make a new friend and with any luck they will be as nice to you as you are to them...good luck
Reply:Seems like your friend doesn%26#039;t appreciate you and your friendship. If she couldn%26#039;t even help u out on your wedding day or just be there for u, then she is no friend.

Have a talk with her before she leaves and let her know exactly how u feel, don%26#039;t hold anything back, if u don%26#039;t tell her how will she know. If things remain the same between the two n she has yet made no effort, let her go. It will be her lost not yours. Believe me, she%26#039;ll realize how good of a friend you were to her when she moves.
Reply:Seeing that she is about to move away i%26#039;d just try and forget about what has happened.

Reply:tell her how you feel about this. and if she gets mad at you, she wasnt a friend worth having and is not a friend worth keeping. but if you can, you might still want to keep in touch, you know, for the children%26#039;s sake.

Is it wrong to let my nephew listen to my music?
I have a six year old nephew who holds the key to my heart and I am what you might call %26#039;gothic%26#039; his mother is very religious and she gets upset when she learns that I let my nephew listen to my music with me, even if it is edited or doesn%26#039;t have cuss words in it at all.
Now I know she is the child%26#039;s mother but I have played a much larger role than her, I helped potty train him,helped him learn how to walk, i taught him how to ride a bike,tie his shoes, and I think of him as my own kid so who%26#039;s in the wrong here?
Is it wrong to let my nephew listen to my music?
no. You are not wrong. I believe if the only thing the kid ever see%26#039;s or hears is loddy doddy gospel music...that he will never be able to form his own opinion of what he likes. Just tell your nephew it%26#039;s a secret between you two!
Reply:She probably has formed some unjustified prejedices against your music for whatever reasons she may have. If your music has no cursing or immoral messages, I don%26#039;t really understand what problem she has with it, HOWEVER since you love the kid so much it%26#039;s best to do what Mommy wants. She has the control to take away any time you spend with him.

Are the Insurgents brave Patriots?
They are not %26quot;insurgents.%26quot; They are dedicated patriots bravely mounting a resistance to an invasion force of carpetbaggers, pirates, thieves, and murderers.
I hope we would have the same dedication and courage to fight for our own homeland if the shoe were on the other foot. And the way Gerorge Wanker Bush has colossally messed up The War Against Terror, it might happen.
O-peration I-raqi L-iberation is not something our children and children%26#039;s will be proud of. True patriots are committed to getting the commander-in-thief out of the Wh**e House before he murders even more GIs and Iraqi civilians.
Are the Insurgents brave Patriots?
Come on K9. Those insurgents are killing their own people by a larger percentage than they are taking our troops. those morons are blowing up markets and coffee houses. If they were REAL PATRIOTS, they would put on a uniform and come out and fight like REAL MEN. They are nothing but a bunch of COWARDS, who don%26#039;t mind killing women and children. And if by some mishap our forces mistakenly kill civilians over there, then, we are truly sorry.Those people should also stand up against the insurgents. They won%26#039;t because they are afraid. That is why they need our help.
I really still don%26#039;t know how I feel about Mr. Bush and his handeling of things so far, but I do know that there aren%26#039;t many men in this country who could handle the pressure that this president has had piled on him since he took office. Would Clinton have been able to keep his johnson in his pants long enough to formulate a response to 911, i doubt it. Here is how i justify taking out those goddamn terrorists, by these events: the bombing of the Marine Barracks in Beruit, by the first bombing of the WTC, by the attacks of 911. That should be enough for any real American Patriot to stand up and take action. I do feel that we haven%26#039;t sent a loud enough message to those COWARDS. and I pray to God that Iran screws up and we get to go in there and clean house also. I think that the Iranian people are tired of that mullah crap that is being forced upon them also. Religion is one thing, but government is another. And I believe that they need to be shown how to seperate the two.

If this was your child's 3rd suspension this year and 13th inhouse suspension..?
What would you do? What punishments? Would you take away all of his new shoes, his necklaces, his clothes.. or what would you do? 10 points.
If this was your child%26#039;s 3rd suspension this year and 13th inhouse suspension..?
After I got over my embarrassment and wondering what did I do so bad that my child grew up to be so disrespectful and immature, then I would do the tough love and take away everything that they hold dear until they showed me that they earned it back, the cell phone would go first. If they still didn%26#039;t straighten out I would talk to juvenile and see what else that I could do for my child to grow into a respectful and responsible adult.
Reply:i%26#039;d be asking myself why i was such a s.hitty parent that my kid had no discipline.
Reply:all of the above, i would take EVERYTHING out of his room just a mattress , blanket and pillow... i would even take the curtains until he grew and started acting appriately..make him sit in that room doing nothing but reading and homework.. also i would call anybody and everybody and find some help for this kid. what is he doing to get suspensions? call social services and try and get this kid help.. he obviously is going to end up in jail eventually.. what did you do when he was suspended the first time ??? nothing probably . you need to start disciplining this kid b4 I have to pay for him the get 3 square meals a day
Reply:First of all, I would be finding out why he keeps getting into trouble, and then I would make sure that new rules were put into effect. There would be NO new items unless the bad behavior stopped, and the door would come off of his bedroom and everything but his bed and clothes would come out of the room - no television, stereo, computer, ipod, or video game units would be in his room. I would also take away ALL of those things until the trouble stopped, and the grades came up (I am assuming the grades thing). I would stand firm on this, and he would also not be allowed to spend any extra time with friends outside of school. No friends%26#039; houses, no going to hang out, and no leaving the house without me. He would be under house arrest, and he would not be allowed on parole until he proved himself more responsible. I would also tell him that if the behavior continued, he would be visiting a juvenile detention center, or better yet - a military academy. Those military academies seem to be able to get bad boys to realize the error of their ways. . .
Reply:If he is 14 it is too late to do much.
If 10 you may still be able to change his behavior but it will be difficult.
I would say whatever you have done so far is WRONG, you need to use different discipline or this kids headed for the penitentiary.
Reply:First I would figure out why he is acting like this...What is hedoing? and go from there.
I would either enroll him in some sort of counceling or outreach program. Then, yes, I would take away the new shoes, necklaces, etc.
Reply:Figure out why he is having so many problems. What unresolved issues are there? Then you may want to think of some very unusual punishments. Take everything out of his room except for the bed. No books, no nothin. If that don%26#039;t work, two words...BOOT CAMP. It straightened me out and I had so many suspensions they kicked me out of all public schools. I had 2 go 2 an alternative school, and that still didn%26#039;t work. No punishment in the world got me to do right. It took boot camp for me to realize that f I didn%26#039;t succeed then, I never would.

First I would try and talk to see what%26#039;s the problem. Then if that doesn%26#039;t work much and he/she continues with this type of behavior, go to the school counselor. Get the counselor to talk to your child and explain that this behavior is not okay.* Be present when the counselor is talking to your child.* But about the shoes and things like that i say no. However I%26#039;ve found that grounding a child is more effective. For example, no computer, no TV, no hanging out with friends etc.. (what the child would miss the most) . Or maybe it%26#039;s a problem at school and for that I would suggest that you transfer your child to another school.
*If all of this doesn%26#039;t work take your child to a phycitarist. Maybe it%26#039;s something emotional. Sometimes children go through some rough times and they don%26#039;t want to talk to their parents about it; they%26#039;d rather talk with someone else. *

Reply:I spent 7 years as a teacher @ a special ed facility for kids with emotional/behavior difficulties %26amp; worked primarily with high school students.

The best advice I would give would be to immediately withdraw your child from school and start %26quot;unschooling%26quot; him. Or at least homeschool. Punishment does not teach responsibility. Instead, it takes the responsibility away from the person and allows him or her to blame the punisher instead.
What were the offenses? Disrespect? Fighting? What would happen in the %26quot;real world%26quot; if your son repeated those behaviors? What would happen to an adult who acted that way? School is an artificial environment designed to indoctrinate our children and force them into a mold. What happens to those that don%26#039;t fit?

Good luck! In my opinion, it is best not to become involved in a power struggle with you son, but to teach him to be a man. Involve him in the decision making about the direction his life should take and about the appropriate consequences for his actions. More often than not, kids are harder on themselves than you would be. Ideally, you want to create positive future behavior, not endlessly dwell on the poor choices of the past!
%26quot;What most people mean when they ask about discipline is not the external system of punishment and rewards, but of an internal understanding of self discipline. Jumping through onerous academic hoops will not necessarily lead to self discipline. Our children gain a sense of how important self discipline is by watching us. Our ability to model a self disciplined life is much more powerful than handing in book reports in time. Helping children reach their own goals will mean there will be plenty of opportunities to discuss stick-to-itiveness, follow through, and how sometimes it%26#039;s worth doing the things that are no fun in order to reach the desired goal. These lessons have much more meaning when they are in conjuction with goals the children set for themselves. %26quot;

Reply:One I could understand taking away his stuff, but Three!!! This year! AND 13th in-house suspension!
He%26#039;d be outta here. Or at least take full responsibilities for his actions. If he thinks he%26#039;s an adult and can just go around doing a he pleases irregardless of all rules and boundaries then it%26#039;s time for him to get his own job and start paying rent. With a child like that it%26#039;s obvious that he respects no one, so its best to let him out into the %26quot;real world%26quot; he so badly craves To be in.
Sure he may have some problems, but with his current attitude you may never get through to him. A healthy dose of reality may be just the thing to wake im up and show him that life is not just what you want to do. You have to be responsible because one day it may be worse than a suspension.
Reply:well first you need to find out WHY he is being suspended.
if its bad friends he hangs around with - stop him hanging around with them.
if its he is bullying, find out why and give him a taste of his own medicine.
you need to find out whats causes all these suspensions because no normal kid would get suspended that many times without reason.
and a good spanking on top of this would set him straght!
Reply:I would take him to a counselor. I would set boundaries and limits at home so that if he breaks the rules, there are consequences.
R = F
Responsibility equals freedom.
Kids want freedom to be able to go play with their friends, play video games, watch tv, etc.
If the child is not doing what is expected of him in school then there are consequences for not doing what is expected.
A hard lesson, but good lesson to learn young. You can%26#039;t always get what you want, act however you please etc.
Reply:I would first be asking myself why he is always in trouble. When children act out like that there is generally problems at home in some way or another.
I would then go to him and lay my hands on him and pray to God to open my eyes and heart to his troubles. I would then pray that he will be guided to confide in me or if not in another trustworthy adult.
Then yes I would take away all of his %26quot;toys%26quot; Whatever it is that he likes and enjoys the most. Because whatever our actions are in this life there is always a concequence.

If this was your child%26#039;s 3rd suspension this year and 13th inhouse suspension..?
After I got over my embarrassment and wondering what did I do so bad that my child grew up to be so disrespectful and immature, then I would do the tough love and take away everything that they hold dear until they showed me that they earned it back, the cell phone would go first. If they still didn%26#039;t straighten out I would talk to juvenile and see what else that I could do for my child to grow into a respectful and responsible adult.
Reply:i%26#039;d be asking myself why i was such a s.hitty parent that my kid had no discipline.
Reply:all of the above, i would take EVERYTHING out of his room just a mattress , blanket and pillow... i would even take the curtains until he grew and started acting appriately..make him sit in that room doing nothing but reading and homework.. also i would call anybody and everybody and find some help for this kid. what is he doing to get suspensions? call social services and try and get this kid help.. he obviously is going to end up in jail eventually.. what did you do when he was suspended the first time ??? nothing probably . you need to start disciplining this kid b4 I have to pay for him the get 3 square meals a day
Reply:First of all, I would be finding out why he keeps getting into trouble, and then I would make sure that new rules were put into effect. There would be NO new items unless the bad behavior stopped, and the door would come off of his bedroom and everything but his bed and clothes would come out of the room - no television, stereo, computer, ipod, or video game units would be in his room. I would also take away ALL of those things until the trouble stopped, and the grades came up (I am assuming the grades thing). I would stand firm on this, and he would also not be allowed to spend any extra time with friends outside of school. No friends%26#039; houses, no going to hang out, and no leaving the house without me. He would be under house arrest, and he would not be allowed on parole until he proved himself more responsible. I would also tell him that if the behavior continued, he would be visiting a juvenile detention center, or better yet - a military academy. Those military academies seem to be able to get bad boys to realize the error of their ways. . .
Reply:If he is 14 it is too late to do much.
If 10 you may still be able to change his behavior but it will be difficult.
I would say whatever you have done so far is WRONG, you need to use different discipline or this kids headed for the penitentiary.
Reply:First I would figure out why he is acting like this...What is hedoing? and go from there.
I would either enroll him in some sort of counceling or outreach program. Then, yes, I would take away the new shoes, necklaces, etc.
Reply:Figure out why he is having so many problems. What unresolved issues are there? Then you may want to think of some very unusual punishments. Take everything out of his room except for the bed. No books, no nothin. If that don%26#039;t work, two words...BOOT CAMP. It straightened me out and I had so many suspensions they kicked me out of all public schools. I had 2 go 2 an alternative school, and that still didn%26#039;t work. No punishment in the world got me to do right. It took boot camp for me to realize that f I didn%26#039;t succeed then, I never would.

What do you think of this legal case involving self-defense?
What do you make of the following case?
A person moves into the city and rents a room after obtaining a job at a restaurant. The landlady allows her niece to move in without notice after she decides to leave her home town to finish school. She comes down and forces herself on the landlady. The woman begins beating and verbally abusing the three-year-old daughter immediately. There are twenty-one incidents counted in less than two weeks. The matter is mentioned to the landlady by the new resident, who has been there less than one month and did not expect this lady to move in.
The landlady sides with her niece and insists that she%26#039;d %26#039;cut off the child%26#039;s hands herself%26#039; if she keeps going into items at the grocery store. One late afternoon the new resident comes home and goes downstairs to avoid the chain-smoking, verbally abusive, -oriented and Internet crazy woman yelling at her child. She goes downstairs and begins to work on an art project, with the radio on full blast to drown out the sounds of the yelling. The niece starts to beat the three-year-old. The new resident runs upstairs and tells her to stop doing it, to distract attention. Her cell phone is upstairs along with her uniform and her keys, shoes and purse are downstairs. There are no locks on any inside doors, no way out of the basement and she%26#039;d have to return downstairs to get her things.
The niece begins slapping and pushing the new resident after an exchange of words, mostly insults with no meaning. She yells, pushes and gangs up on the new resident, not allowing her to leave. They are located in the front living room. The niece has the phone by the computer, which is behind her. She pushes the new resident twice against a loose shoe rack against the wall, which nearly falls on her. The niece slaps and threatens to kill the new resident.
She gets away and grabs a glass. She tells the niece to get away from her or she will hit her with the glass. The niece jumps her, pushes her head into the hardwood cement floor (which leads later on to a concussion), busts her knees open and it starts bleeding and after a struggle with the niece on top, the new resident gets up and gets away and strikes the niece on the head three times after she (the niece) lunges at her. There is little difference in the strength, body size and physical makeup between the two as described.
The niece grabs a towel and the phone. She is bleeding. The child screams. The new resident tells her she is going to the police and goes upstairs and then downstairs to get her things and then leaves, walking two kilometres to the police station. She reports the matter to the police who tell her to return to the resident, wait outside and then they will come. They agree that it was necessary and they are worried for the child because of the niece%26#039;s actions towards her. The new resident returns after a quick stop at a convenience store and is unarmed. The police arrest her and take her in, charging her with assault with a weapon.
The defense counsel agrees that it is self-defense but that is %26#039;was excessive%26#039;. The crown prosecutor pays to have the woman brought down, but has no idea what the %26#039;weapon%26#039; was, believing it to be a beer mug or a tea cup. There is no motive. The defense concludes that they have little evidence and no motive. There is no presentation of physical evidence, no doctor%26#039;s reports, no eyewitness accounts, no samples, no pictures, no police present at court, etc. just the niece who has healed completely with no damage or physical scarring. The crown prosecutor is convinced she was struck ten times but there is no evidence to support this claim. What do you make of this case?

as for the self defense, the other resident was doing what they could to keep the niece from killing them, so i go with self defense, even through they used a weapon. i would have done a lot more to that woman than just hit her over the head a coulde times.
Reply:I do not understand how it is possible that the case can even be debated when out evidence, let alone charging someone with no proof.
As for using self defence.
I would defend a child if a woman was beating them up, probably even if it cost me my life.
I will not stand for any abuse for any reason.

Worry about my child's walking.?
her shoes wastes a lot on the left edge of the right foot and on the right edge of the left foot . She easily falls down when running and sometimes just while walking. What could it be?
Worry about my child%26#039;s walking.?
Dyspraxia? General clumsiness? One leg longer than the other?
Obviously, if you are that worried, you should take her to see your GP or health visitor.
Reply:It could be any one of a number of things, some of which she%26#039;ll grow out of without intervention, others that she may need help with.
Get a referral to a paediatrician, and to a paediatric physio, between both, they will thoroughly assess her gait and general developmental status, and be able to either reassure you or take the necessary steps to help her improve.
Reply:Make sure he has a good walking shoe. Not the ones from walmart. Go to a baby shoe store. Stride Rite is a good one.
Reply:discuss it with your health visitor
Reply:It sounds to me like she may need some physio, maybe on her feet, maybe on her legs or hips. I%26#039;m sure its nothing to worry about, but see your GP and they can do a referral for you.
Reply:My son did not walk till he was 2 1/2 we found out that he was flat footed and had to have a special boot to support him then a inner sole take her to your doctor my son walks now but the boots and inner sole did the trick.Hope this helps.
Reply:So sweet p, your advice to this lady is to go and see a specialist.
What relevance was all the other shite?
Reply:Sounds like she could do with a pelvis x-ray to rule out things like Perthes disease...
Reply:take her to the doctors and get her checked for twisted thigh and shin bones.my two sons had that problem,it corrects its self as they get bigger
Reply:you will need to see a specialist-go to your doctor and he will approve of it
dont delay -it will be all much better and workable-with the exception of a total cure in the case of ceribrial palsy-which is the heavenly cure
may i share about cases that would have given anything to be in your shoes-2 ladies here one losing her baby and the other already lost and still in the womb=there is a double rainbow soon to come as the sun will shine.
big hugggg to you Mam
its all about timing now-or you can have the hospital induce labor. A d%26amp;c isnt necessary unless there isnt total discharge.
your baby is already in heaven make sure your going there too and the bible says they that go before us stand on the banners of heaven and cheer for us=Hebrews 12
it may be hard after this experience yet you will be the most fertile after the baby is discharged from your body. if you wait a long time after the short time to heal of a few months, you may not be able to concieve that easily. Be the hero take it on the chin and go for it, prayerfully.
the question is if there is a reason-as in an incompetent cervex and did the baby become detached as in the plecenta
this is help from above in answer to another lady=deep breaths good music on, and the biggest hug to you and i dont release till you tell me your ok in Jesus
%26quot;The rain falls on the just and the unjust%26quot;
believing in God doesnt take away the curse of Adam and Eve from the perfect garden forsaken
Do not take it personal, dont search out your life and blame yourself or anyone else
A huricane hits and innocent people are hurt-it doesnt just blow away the sinners houses.
This was my answer to a lady with a detached Plecenta
it is good if you also answer her and others questions-if you need help-help another and your burdens will be lifted seeing others as just as important as we are too
so I answered her=if your still bleeding do not get out of bed, have a parent or other do your work for you, and get a small fridge right by your bed for easy access, plenty of juice and tea calming chamomile and ginger also for the stomach.
one way or the other Mam and I am praying for you, i have good news for you, a rainbow of hope-and do hand exersises in bed and when you read in the Psalms to praise the Lord -give the sacrifice of praise-meaning you may not feel like it-but as you do it will pour forth-David cried out to God to save his baby and take his life instead, and Psalm 51 deals with that situation and the restoration of his Joy that he might lead sinners in the way to God.
first John chapters 3%26amp;10 and Revelation 3:19%26amp;20 if you never asked Jesus into your heart to forgive -even one lie, and become your personal best friend, amen
relax praying for you
ok, first your baby will live, the question is on earth or in heaven awaiting the melenium to return and at the end to chose either Jesus or to reject him
so it will be a loss and gain and if loss then you have more opportunities to try again-a placenta is made new each time so it doesnt mean you have a bad cervex or anything-with one of those hemoraging is normal and staying off the feet each pregnance when the sign of bleeding comes.
as you do stay off your feet, use a pillow between your legs, and one under your feet to keep them elevated and a smaller one under your calves to keep the pressure off, legs spread some helps.
make sure your taking all your pre natal vitamins
I do not like to give upsetting news-I will tell you of another life situtation of a lady that does have a bad cervex from using a diaphram-she has 3 children but she also had one miscarrige and 1 in 4 pregancies end in that. She bled with pregnance, had to stay off her feet, she had one still born, and one passed after premature birth at around 2 lbs.
the chances are every day your baby lives is a miracle,
your next pregnancy will go totally fine
for now read your bible-its going to take effort, read the Song of Songs-if you must read the book of Job but read the last chapter first -verse 10 to forgive all those in your life that have let you down, and you will be freed from bondage and get a double portion of all you have lost.
and if you feel the doctor isnt being help full, get a different doctor
praying for you Mam, and keep looking up even in the storm, there is a double rainbow soon to come as the sun will shine.
David in Jesus amazing grace

Reply:Sounds like she could do with a pelvis x-ray to rule out things like Perthes disease...
Reply:take her to the doctors and get her checked for twisted thigh and shin bones.my two sons had that problem,it corrects its self as they get bigger
Reply:you will need to see a specialist-go to your doctor and he will approve of it
dont delay -it will be all much better and workable-with the exception of a total cure in the case of ceribrial palsy-which is the heavenly cure
may i share about cases that would have given anything to be in your shoes-2 ladies here one losing her baby and the other already lost and still in the womb=there is a double rainbow soon to come as the sun will shine.
big hugggg to you Mam
its all about timing now-or you can have the hospital induce labor. A d%26amp;c isnt necessary unless there isnt total discharge.
your baby is already in heaven make sure your going there too and the bible says they that go before us stand on the banners of heaven and cheer for us=Hebrews 12
it may be hard after this experience yet you will be the most fertile after the baby is discharged from your body. if you wait a long time after the short time to heal of a few months, you may not be able to concieve that easily. Be the hero take it on the chin and go for it, prayerfully.
the question is if there is a reason-as in an incompetent cervex and did the baby become detached as in the plecenta
this is help from above in answer to another lady=deep breaths good music on, and the biggest hug to you and i dont release till you tell me your ok in Jesus
%26quot;The rain falls on the just and the unjust%26quot;
believing in God doesnt take away the curse of Adam and Eve from the perfect garden forsaken
Do not take it personal, dont search out your life and blame yourself or anyone else
A huricane hits and innocent people are hurt-it doesnt just blow away the sinners houses.
This was my answer to a lady with a detached Plecenta
it is good if you also answer her and others questions-if you need help-help another and your burdens will be lifted seeing others as just as important as we are too
so I answered her=if your still bleeding do not get out of bed, have a parent or other do your work for you, and get a small fridge right by your bed for easy access, plenty of juice and tea calming chamomile and ginger also for the stomach.
one way or the other Mam and I am praying for you, i have good news for you, a rainbow of hope-and do hand exersises in bed and when you read in the Psalms to praise the Lord -give the sacrifice of praise-meaning you may not feel like it-but as you do it will pour forth-David cried out to God to save his baby and take his life instead, and Psalm 51 deals with that situation and the restoration of his Joy that he might lead sinners in the way to God.
first John chapters 3%26amp;10 and Revelation 3:19%26amp;20 if you never asked Jesus into your heart to forgive -even one lie, and become your personal best friend, amen
relax praying for you
ok, first your baby will live, the question is on earth or in heaven awaiting the melenium to return and at the end to chose either Jesus or to reject him
so it will be a loss and gain and if loss then you have more opportunities to try again-a placenta is made new each time so it doesnt mean you have a bad cervex or anything-with one of those hemoraging is normal and staying off the feet each pregnance when the sign of bleeding comes.
as you do stay off your feet, use a pillow between your legs, and one under your feet to keep them elevated and a smaller one under your calves to keep the pressure off, legs spread some helps.
make sure your taking all your pre natal vitamins
I do not like to give upsetting news-I will tell you of another life situtation of a lady that does have a bad cervex from using a diaphram-she has 3 children but she also had one miscarrige and 1 in 4 pregancies end in that. She bled with pregnance, had to stay off her feet, she had one still born, and one passed after premature birth at around 2 lbs.
the chances are every day your baby lives is a miracle,
your next pregnancy will go totally fine
for now read your bible-its going to take effort, read the Song of Songs-if you must read the book of Job but read the last chapter first -verse 10 to forgive all those in your life that have let you down, and you will be freed from bondage and get a double portion of all you have lost.
and if you feel the doctor isnt being help full, get a different doctor
praying for you Mam, and keep looking up even in the storm, there is a double rainbow soon to come as the sun will shine.
David in Jesus amazing grace

What do you think of the following legal case involving self-defense?
What do you make of the following case?
A person moves into the city and rents a room after obtaining a job at a restaurant. The landlady allows her niece to move in without notice after she decides to leave her home town to finish school. She comes down and forces herself on the landlady. The woman begins beating and verbally abusing the three-year-old daughter immediately. There are twenty-one incidents counted in less than two weeks. The matter is mentioned to the landlady by the new resident, who has been there less than one month and did not expect this lady to move in.
The landlady sides with her niece and insists that she%26#039;d %26#039;cut off the child%26#039;s hands herself%26#039; if she keeps going into items at the grocery store. One late afternoon the new resident comes home and goes downstairs to avoid the chain-smoking, verbally abusive, -oriented and Internet crazy woman yelling at her child. She goes downstairs and begins to work on an art project, with the radio on full blast to drown out the sounds of the yelling. The niece starts to beat the three-year-old. The new resident runs upstairs and tells her to stop doing it, to distract attention. Her cell phone is upstairs along with her uniform and her keys, shoes and purse are downstairs. There are no locks on any inside doors, no way out of the basement and she%26#039;d have to return downstairs to get her things.
The niece begins slapping and pushing the new resident after an exchange of words, mostly insults with no meaning. She yells, pushes and gangs up on the new resident, not allowing her to leave. They are located in the front living room. The niece has the phone by the computer, which is behind her. She pushes the new resident twice against a loose shoe rack against the wall, which nearly falls on her. The niece slaps and threatens to kill the new resident.
She gets away and grabs a glass. She tells the niece to get away from her or she will hit her with the glass. The niece jumps her, pushes her head into the hardwood cement floor (which leads later on to a concussion), busts her knees open and it starts bleeding and after a struggle with the niece on top, the new resident gets up and gets away and strikes the niece on the head three times after she (the niece) lunges at her. There is little difference in the strength, body size and physical makeup between the two as described.
The niece grabs a towel and the phone. She is bleeding. The child screams. The new resident tells her she is going to the police and goes upstairs and then downstairs to get her things and then leaves, walking two kilometres to the police station. She reports the matter to the police who tell her to return to the resident, wait outside and then they will come. They agree that it was necessary and they are worried for the child because of the niece%26#039;s actions towards her. The new resident returns after a quick stop at a convenience store and is unarmed. The police arrest her and take her in, charging her with assault with a weapon.
The defense counsel agrees that it is self-defense but that is %26#039;was excessive%26#039;. The crown prosecutor pays to have the woman brought down, but has no idea what the %26#039;weapon%26#039; was, believing it to be a beer mug or a tea cup. There is no motive. The defense concludes that they have little evidence and no motive. There is no presentation of physical evidence, no doctor%26#039;s reports, no eyewitness accounts, no samples, no pictures, no police present at court, etc. just the niece who has healed completely with no damage or physical scarring. The crown prosecutor is convinced she was struck ten times but there is no evidence to support this claim. What do you make of this case?
What do you think of the following legal case involving self-defense?
This is the only part that is not credible;
%26quot;She reports the matter to the police who tell her to return to the resident, wait outside and then they will come%26quot;
Other than that, O.K.
By the way, in all self defense cases, especially in law enforcement, it is an automatic court case where there is a weapon involved, and a lot of times even where the weapon is only fists.
What does this have to do with religion?

What do you think of this legal case involving self-defense?
What do you make of the following case?
A person moves into the city and rents a room after obtaining a job at a restaurant. The landlady allows her niece to move in without notice after she decides to leave her home town to finish school. She comes down and forces herself on the landlady. The woman begins beating and verbally abusing the three-year-old daughter immediately. There are twenty-one incidents counted in less than two weeks. The matter is mentioned to the landlady by the new resident, who has been there less than one month and did not expect this lady to move in.
The landlady sides with her niece and insists that she%26#039;d %26#039;cut off the child%26#039;s hands herself%26#039; if she keeps going into items at the grocery store. One late afternoon the new resident comes home and goes downstairs to avoid the chain-smoking, verbally abusive, -oriented and Internet crazy woman yelling at her child. She goes downstairs and begins to work on an art project, with the radio on full blast to drown out the sounds of the yelling. The niece starts to beat the three-year-old. The new resident runs upstairs and tells her to stop doing it, to distract attention. Her cell phone is upstairs along with her uniform and her keys, shoes and purse are downstairs. There are no locks on any inside doors, no way out of the basement and she%26#039;d have to return downstairs to get her things.
The niece begins slapping and pushing the new resident after an exchange of words, mostly insults with no meaning. She yells, pushes and gangs up on the new resident, not allowing her to leave. They are located in the front living room. The niece has the phone by the computer, which is behind her. She pushes the new resident twice against a loose shoe rack against the wall, which nearly falls on her. The niece slaps and threatens to kill the new resident.
She gets away and grabs a glass. She tells the niece to get away from her or she will hit her with the glass. The niece jumps her, pushes her head into the hardwood cement floor (which leads later on to a concussion), busts her knees open and it starts bleeding and after a struggle with the niece on top, the new resident gets up and gets away and strikes the niece on the head three times after she (the niece) lunges at her. There is little difference in the strength, body size and physical makeup between the two as described.

What do you think of this legal case involving self-defense?
It sounds like two crazy women who are both involved in assault and battery without just cause. However, I%26#039;d say that the first victim of the assault is the landlady, and the one who fought back was doing so in self-defense. It sounds as though each barrister has done an ineffective job of convincing the judge who was principally at fault, although from your lengthy description, it sounds like the niece is the one who started it all. I can%26#039;t see much prospect for a truce on either side, and I think for the sake of the child, further investigation is needed. Meanwhile, the niece should find another place to live. I%26#039;d suggest the jail. Have the welfare system put the child in protective custody, so that she doesn%26#039;t have to be the battering ram between these two crazies.

My 4 year old daughter prefers dad to me. I want us to be a close mom and daughter but how???
Normally mom is the children%26#039;s favorite, I was my son%26#039;s, but now I am wearing the other shoe and Dad is the lucky one. I don%26#039;t want to lessen their relationship, I love how close they are, I just wish she did not shy away from me when he%26#039;s home. Also when she does prefer me, which is rare but happens occasionally my husband gets a little jealous. I am the one who has to discipline her as dad let%26#039;s her run wild and it makes me look like the bad guy. How can I help my daughter to not choose fav%26#039;s and how can I help dad to assist with getting her to see me as a loving mom not the bad guy.

With respect, I think you%26#039;re overlooking the big picture, which is human nature. It%26#039;s natural for your son to choose you as his %26quot;favorite%26quot;, and it%26#039;s natural for your daughter to %26quot;choose%26quot; her dad. In my own family, I%26#039;m normally the disciplinarian, yet my 4-year-old daughter adores me, while my 6-year-old son generally would prefer to spend time with his mom. This reaction is caused partially by the fact that even when I have to have a %26quot;talk%26quot; with my daughter, she still knows that she%26#039;s my little angel. Mostly though, I%26#039;ve noticed that this behavior is fairly natural and common in my friends%26#039; families as well as my own. I won%26#039;t advise you to try to take over as your daughter%26#039;s %26quot;favorite%26quot;, but I will remind you that love takes many forms. Maybe you can%26#039;t be your daughter%26#039;s first choice for attention, but you can always find some other bond to build with her. This is what I do with my son, and it seems to work well. He still prefers to sit in mom%26#039;s lap, but he knows that dad is the one to ask when it comes to %26quot;guy%26quot; stuff. Mostly, I would advise you against allowing any hard feelings to come between yourself and your husband over this. 4-year-olds are far more intuitive than most of us give them credit for, and being part of a rift between her parents is something no little girl should ever have to contemplate. Hope this helps, and best of luck.
Reply:You guys need to get on the same team here. This isn%26#039;t a contest, these are your children. You need to be consistent with discipline techniques across the board. Kids need the same rules no mater WHO they are with. It makes them feel safe and secure. It doesn%26#039;t make them hate you. If you didn%26#039;t care about them, you wouldn%26#039;t care WHAT they did.
And, I%26#039;m sorry, but your husband is being selfish. He is putting his own short term happiness above the long term emotional success of your child. He needs to get with the program asap or this little girl is going to think she can manipulate and sweet talk her way into and out of anything. He is not doing her any favors by not disciplining her. Quite the opposite in fact. He is hurting her.
Sit down and make him watch a few episodes of Super Nanny...that will snap some sense into him.
Reply:First you and your husband need to sit down and make a plan to discipline as a team. It does no good if one parent is the bad guy and one is the good guy. Also, maybe try to have some mother and daughter time. Just the two of you. Go see a movie or take her out to a special dinner. Take her out of the house so dad is not right there. Hope that helps!
Reply:Unfortunately, I think that%26#039;s the nature of the father/daughter relationship beast. I have a 5 year old step daughter and she and her dad are EXTREMELY close. I just think dads have a hard time telling their girls %26quot;no%26quot;. The same thing happened to my brother...had a boy first then a girl and is totally taken by the girl. I know it%26#039;s not fair and I%26#039;m pregnant with a boy so I have to make sure he treats them the same...he tells me he%26#039;s a boy so he knows how boys think and that he doesn%26#039;t know how girls think so he just gives in to her! Her mom (his ex) and I laugh about how much she runs him...HOWEVER, it has taken a toll on him because she does run him and he sees her being more respectful to me and her mom so he wonders what%26#039;s up...I told him it%26#039;s because you let her walk all over you.... Dad will get tired of being taken advantage of and he%26#039;ll start taking care of business!

What is a field site trip?
The criteria necessary for evaluating a field site trip is Preparing for the field site trip. When preparing for a field site trip, the children can think about, discuss, and record what they think they will see, which questions they may be able to ask, who they may talk to and what they might bring back to the classroom. A Field site trip may not mean leaving the school but sometimes involves leaving the classroom to investigate some part of the environment more closely.
The class can go to a site which gives them chances to see objects, plants, animals, vehicles, events, equipment, people, and processes. They take notes and make sketches of what they are most interested in and what they would most like to learn more about when they return to school. The visit may not require special transportation if it is within walking distance. There is usually a lot to study on the way to the site.
There is also the Field site trip follow-up. This is when the children discuss the field trip, discuss accounts of what happened, whom they spoke to, what they saw, what they learned. The children can use the sketches they made for detailed paintings ,construction models and drawings . The children can also use this time for information books, question that are raised and letters. A follow-up field trip is planned.
Sometimes there is visiting experts ,these are people who have first hand experience of the topic being studied, through their work and travel. Visiting experts can be invited to the classroom to talk to the children, answer questions, engage in discussion, or be interviewed.
Before going to the field site the teacher must consider several aspects. Is the site safe for the children, how much experience can the children get out of the trip , is there any hands on equipment that the children can explore. They also must consider is there any experts on site to show the children around and if the children have any questions is there anyone who can answer the question the children might have .
There is several ways I can share what the students is learning . First I would
take pictures of each of the children working on the project. 2) Put examples of the children’s work also in the class book. They could each take a page and paste in their work and also add their picture. I could also display their work around the classroom so the parents or caregivers can see it as they enter and exit the classroom. Next during parent teacher conference I would show the parent the class book to show what the children has learned .
Another example is to make a movie. The children would participate by making the movie. They each would have a part in the movie to show what they have learned . the children will build a house using different types of tools and explain step by step as they do it . The topic of the movie would be building with construction tools. We would make a movie night where the parents /caregiver would be invited where the children also could sit down and enjoy the movie.
Another example is to do a play. Where the children could be a tool and explain what each tools is used for . Each child would say something about tools. They could also dress up as a tool or hold a tool. They could also show pictures they have created and also talk about the field site or the person who visited the class. The parents could be invited to see the play.
The five key experience through the project were initiative ,social relation, music and movement language and literacy ,and creative representation.
Creative representative was enhance when the children made tool boxes out of shoe boxes and paper. They decorated their shoe boxes with makers ,crayons , stickers, and pictures of tools . The children seem to really enjoy this activity they did not want to stop decorating the shoe box . Jonathon kept saying could I get another sticker. Another time creativity was enhanced is when the children made bricks out of paper bags and newspaper .Maddie kept asking to make another brick and another brick. The children traced a brick they had in block area and used the newspaper to stuff the bag.
Music and music was enhanced when the children sung a simple song about tools. I made up a song about how the children like tools in the jungle room . They children seem to really enjoy the song at first they just listen to the song but once they got a hang of the song most of the children participated . They seem to really like songs like the weather song and old Mac Donald’s .
Language and literacy was enhanced when the children talked about tools. One incident Jonathon s was sitting at the table talking to Draven and he said lets talk about construction tools. We are going to use our tools to build a house . Another incident Molly talked about how her dad use a lot of tools to fix things.
Social relation was enhanced when the children talked to Steve a unfamiliar adult about tools. The children asked questions about what tools he had in the tool box. They seem to really enjoy the conversation with Steve. Jonathon asked what kind of saw he had.
What is a field site trip?
Did you type your college paper on the wrong box? and if you intended to ask a ??, I will go by your title. what is a field site trip? hmm. the school office-where does the mail go? flag pole-observations of our flag / who puts it up, flag protocol,etc. / bus garage, mechanics, routes, drivers / outdoor weather station . basically, find someplace neat to visit on the school campus. or if you are studying %26#039;car%26#039; then the vehicle can be pulled up to a safe place. focus the study, separate the class into two groups, younger kids can sketch while older kids can develop research questions. Fire Station: the focus may just be on the truck, not the whole fire station and program. Just what the kids have question on and what research you can help to guide them in answering the questions for themselves. The start of the project may have come from a fireman giving a fire safety lesson, and lil Johnny asked about the truck.
