    This makes me sick!

    ITA that the school administration NEEDS to be held accountable for these incidents. My DS was bullied endlessly in Elementary School and the principal said "Well, it's a he said, she said situation. One student's word against another..." NOTHING was done! (BTW, the parents refused to...

    Dumb things your DH or SO has done that...

    you've had to forgive? My DH and I recently celebrated our 23rd anniversary :eek: and seeing the ultrasound photo Elliemom posted in another thread reminded me of something DH did that nearly caused his demise. 14 years ago, my DH copied over the ULTRASOUND videotape of our daughter for a...

    As you get older, what surprises you about yourself?

    Thru my early 20s, I NEVER thought I'd have kids, let alone give up my career for them but now I can't imagine life without my DD & DS. As I get older, I'm more tolerant of individual quirks, but less tolerant of intolerance (if that makes sense!)

    HELLO - What are you gals up to?

    Hi Liann! Thanks for including me in your shout out (maybe there's another Joan here, but I'll just assume it's me :p). Your posts about your pregnancy take me back down memory lane!! My DD (now 14) was SUCH a kicker--I could wake up DH by putting my belly against his back when she got...

    Non-public/alternative/other types of schools?

    Hi Pam, As a parent who's been there and done that w/ my son who has learning issues, private schools aren't necessarily a panacea. The small classroom sizes don't necessarily help if: the curriculum expectations are beyond a child's ability to follow directions/focus/stay on task; the...

    Uh oh! Scary study alert!

    IMO, the part I put in bold is the most important information from this study. Most nutrition guidelines I've seen limit fat calories to about 30% of total calories consumed. Are you outside these AHA ranges in terms of what you're consuming--for all fats?

    Relationship question

    Ummm, not to be a wet blanket but is this the same guy you thought might be gay? (You posted about him in 11/09). If so, your family may not think you two are suited for each other based on vibes they are picking up.
