    ADHD Meds seem to be working

    I agree. I always contacted my daughters teachers, explained the situation, and they were always very willing to help out and make her succeed in anyway. We went on our first college visit together, she has come a long, long way!

    ADHD Meds seem to be working

    My nephew went from straight D's and suicidal to straight A's and happy with the meds. It can be a good thing. Use any offering you can get from the schools. Also listen to your son. My daughter was put in the lowest reading, and the very, very lowest math in 5th grade to help her. After...

    The First (and Maybe Last) Time I Tried STS

    I just finished Meso 1 and am starting Meso 2 tomorrow. This is my third time through. I hate push-ups, but they are good for you. However, I just do as many as I can stand, and move on. I am almost 49 years old and I can do a work-out how I like and when I like without feeling like I am...

    No "Lost" threads? ;)

    Well that is your opinion. There seems to be quite a few people watching this uninteresting show, so I guess we are all just uninteresting. I don't read Entertainment Weekly, so I guess I don't share your pain.

    The Paperless Society

    We print a lot of pictures. With all digital cameras, we no longer take film in to develop and use our printer.

    The Paperless Society

    I print our weekly schedule and post it on the fridge. That way everyone in the family knows what is going on without pestering me constantly. My daughter has to print out lots of things for school.

    Anyone else not have a use for ipad?

    I love my touch, and recently bought a netbook, which is much cheaper than the Ipad. It also has microsoft office on it, and so much more functional for me. So I don't really see the use of the Ipad. It will be interesting to see what it evolves to.

    Confused about 1/2 or full day kindergarden

    Our school district only has half day,although I know some people send their children to a private place that does full day, and then changes at first grade. My kids are 22 and 17, and were not affected by only having 1/2 day. Really a very small portion of their schooling is kindergarten...

    My son's yearbook, I need to vent.....

    Kids in sports are glorified, especially in smaller schools, kids who do well in school, but are not in sports often do not get any glory. Perhaps that is what the mother referred to.

    Shock Cardio iPod sync problem update

    I have the touch, and could not download. But I put the new upgrade to itunes in before I sync. My question. I got these to work by converting to the itunes format. Do I still have to redownload?

    Unable to Sync STS Cardio Downloads to iPod

    Well I have all of mine on the Ipod now, but hope it will get fixed for others, because it took a long, long time.

    STS cardio download problem

    I don't know. I checked to see if they would play, but did not check chapter points. They must be in a different format than previously. Perhaps because people were having a lot of difficulty downloading. The slow process does not rely on the internet(ipod file transformation) so no timing...

    STS cardio download problem

    I have two to go. It takes me about an hour for each one, don't know why it takes so long, but it does work!

    STS cardio download problem

    I have three converted now, and am working on a fourth. It works, but sure is slow. Itunes had a warning that it was, so I figured it was. The size of the converted file is smaller, so they are compressing something.

    STS cardio download problem

    I wonder if it is Itunes new upgrade. I got the same thing. So I went to the itunes help and read about how to put vidoes on the Ipod(in my case a touch). It said the video has to be converted to a usable format for the touch to use. I had to go to the movie tab, highlight the video, click...

    ADHD in children

    Pam, if you had ADHD, you still have ADHD. You may have developed coping skills, but they have done brain scans on individuals with ADHD and the brain is actually physically different. You and your son are unique and have gifts. Enjoy them!

    ADHD in children

    ADHD is not the end of the world. My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and learning abilities in 6th grade and refused any meds. Junior high was rough, Freshman year in high school was rough, but we have worked very, very hard, and now as a junior, for the first time ever, she is on honor roll...
