- Finally a study has been done to assess the effects of drug and alcohol use on children. I hadn't been able to find anything until now:http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/04/080407153034.htmDefinitely worth exploring the article and side...
- Today is the first day in I-can-t-remember-how-long that I'm actually bored.The kids are in school, my husband's installing software, all of my clients are out this week so I have no real work to do today.And I'm so bored I don't even want to read...
- I started to post this on "I Miss Me," but then realized it really should be its own thread.I often wonder why we're always told that we shouldn't resent people -- as if resentment isn't a legitimate, normal, or healthy feeling.I'm just throwing...
- We just got back from the dentist, and all three grandchildren need braces. That will run about $20,000.So what does Pinky tell me? "I wish I could get them on my welfare because all orthodontia is fully covered."This has me SO ANGRY I could...
- Just got a message from that ol' Nigerian prince who needs to get his money out of the country. (At least I assume it's Nigeria -- I didn't get that far into the message.I replied that they need to get a better scam, because everyone's on to this...
- So I have all three grandchildren by myself for 11 days in a row (my husband is filling in for his boss, who gets a vacation with his wife. No kids). So I start the day jealous of boss and of ANYONE who gets to be alone for one minute.Now it's just...
- Our youngest grandson is 6, about to turn 7.I can't remember the last time he ate his dinner, unless it's chicken nuggets or pizza.He eats a really good breakfast, sometimes asks for seconds and even thirds. He'll usually eat most of his lunch, but...
- Our youngest grandson, age seven, has recently begun to come in for hugs and kisses many times each day. He'll play by himself or with his sisters, he'll watch tv, play in the pool, play outside, etc. - all perfectly normal.But every 15 minutes or...
- Here's what I will never understand: Why are those who continue to do serious wrongs given so many chances? I could see it if someone shoplifted and was given another chance. I could even see it if someone accidentally killed someone and was given...
- Pinky (my husband's daughter) has called every day for the past week. I notice that she calls only in the late afternoon between 4-6pm. Naturally I assume that's because she hasn't started partying yet.The first couple of times she called she was...
- Lotus, I just got a friend request from you, but I haven't seen your name on this forum, you have absolutely nothing on your profile, and you have no activity on DS at all.If you are a legitimate seeker of support, advice, and friendship, I'm sorry....
- Got a call from my husband's daughter yesterday, all sobbing and crying that she misses "her children." She wanted to know what she had to do to see them again.I reminded her that nobody ever said she couldn't. SHE'S the one who hasn't made contact...
- In late February, my husband's daughter was thrown out of her mother's house after stealing pills, lying about her whereabouts, getting drunk in a bar with a 70-year-old guy, beating up her mom and being hauled off to jail. Then getting money to...
- Nothing awful, actually we had a good day, or rather the kids did :-0For fall clothes, they're still on summer break so my husband can watch two while I take the third out to get school clothes. That can be a pleasant experience.But now because of...
- I just got a friend request from a new member -- I've never seen a post from this person. His/her profile is private - you have to become a friend before you can see it. I searched for the name and nothing came up.I've decided to ignore ALL friend...
