The fact that you even dated him says a lot about your own self worth.

TO ALL: It is not okay to withhold sex from your spouse, not ever, not for any reason, not for anyone! I don't care who starts it, it is not okay. Period. Get out of the relationship then find someone who suits your needs better.

If I hadn't heard it from you, fishy, I would not believe it. I know you like to make fun of where you live, but I didn't realize how backwards it really was. That is kinda scary. Do they let you paddle the teachers when they get out of line? lol That might be kind of fun, I know a couple of principals who are just cute enough to spank.

Wow. I had no idea that newborns could present with ADHD symptoms. We didn't notice that my daughter had it until she was in school. She's not on meds right now, so I'm hoping she has outgrown the worst of it. We are controlling it via diet, and it seems to be working (she's doing well in school, at least).

Caffeine has actually been shown to increase the ability to concentrate in persons with ADHD. I'm talking about adults here, not children. Caffeine is a stimulant, not unlike Ritalin. However, too much caffeine also can cause insomnia, nervousness, irritability and increased heart rate. This is especially true in children, which is why they don't recommend treating with caffeine.

Back in the day, teachers and principals used corporal punishment to deal with that kind of situation (which wasn't right either), but today they got nothin. I feel for them.

Damp paper towel on the still very warm grill, close the lid, then the inside wipes out quick and easily(after it cools of course!).

I'm trying to imagine under what circumstances going into a room with member of the opposite sex suddenly causes a person to be "tramitized".

Just turn all washrooms into co-ed with a lock on them. Problem solved.

Nope, not confused at all. I know exactly what you're talking about.

Maybe it's time to dispell a few myths about ADD/ADHD.... Now, as I speak on this I ask all to allow me some freedom, as I do deal with (notice I did not say suffer ADD) ADD on a daily and personal basis. How? I am ADD.

Moving on though. By refusing the "Zombie Pills" and paying attention to what this does to me I have learned how to deal with it in a positive manner. I actually use it to my advantage most of the time now. Here are a few facts about it that most do not know or realize.

ok first of all my son has ADHD,ADD,BI-POLAR,ODD

i say it is all these people doign drungs that is messing up the kids heads ..i didnt do drugs but the person i was seeing did maryjane and lord only knows what else he did ...but my son and his other daughter both have close problem except she has adhd,add,bi-polar,and ocd ...
so you tell me everyone stop thsoe damn drugs.....

comeon doctors get your heads out of your asses and figure this out im sick of my son not beable to controll himself.....

Now why do schools look for a ADD or ADHD Diagnosis? No one has answered that but me...they want what is best for the system and is in some cases a cop out but not in all cases.

You weren't born 5 months early. I'm betting your mom's doctor was wrong about your due date.

(Too many parents push different diagnosis on their kids so they can get disability for them, that's a whole nother thread!)

Maybe what we need to do as a society is value the outcome of children's life as adults instead of just how to get them to behave as kids.

Maybe parents need to be more creative?

What the heck did all the hyper, unfocused kids do before we could legally drug them?

I don't care..it's still drugging your child to change their behavior. And I never said anything about "zombie" so before you start ranting figure out who you are talking to. And have you EVER spoken to anyone that grew up on ritalin? even they will tell you it made them feel like they were in a cloud. Kind of a daze.

I'll say it. It's a cop out. Kids are hyper. Kids get bored. They overreact and act out. That doesn't mean that we should dope them up to calm them down. I was appalled when my sister was going to start treating my nephew for his diagnosed ADD. Sure...lets drug him up so he doesn't talk during class or fidget with his pen. ...

Well, after taking him to several different doctors and psychologists it was found that his IQ level was extremely high and he was placed in advanced placement classes and has not been a problem since. Sure he's still your average kid that will climb up your walls but I'd rather see that then him be a shell of his original person.

It's an easy solution to a hyper child.

This is for cclarkrun,well for me being such a jerk ass I seem too be getting under all your skins enough for you too give me lovely replys,as for you u big dumb ass country boy away and eat some off your haystacks and try shagging the farmers son you gay cowboy

Now that i got that little bit a bragging out of the way, i don't know where the motive in that would be for a totally FREE sight!!

HEY YOU ARE PRETTY DUM EH, SURELY YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COMPUTER ANSWER AND A REAL PERSONS EMAILS !! DUH.

Yang: ~~~My sister is 40 and pregnant, and having a difficult time. She had to be sewn shut last week to keep from losing the baby, was ordered not to work anymore, and prescribed strict bedrest. She was pregnant with twins last year and lost them both. If she loses this one, that's it. The Christmas party at her place is on hold indefinitely. Her and her hubby have wonderful careers, though.

This is a lie. Do your math... condensed milk is 3.29/can, chocolate chips 1.69/bag ... we're already over 4 bucks so go back and do the math.

Dont laugh, go invest in a vaccum sealer.......
you know the kind that sucks the air out of packages.......

Make whatever kind of treats you want, then seal those suckers on plates (paper or styrofoam) and ship in that box of popcorn to your hearts content.
being sealed they last longer....... and on the plates keeps them stable.

Hey new girl Almost all milk products will incorporate air bubles into scrambled eggs, because they tend to have a levening agen/reaction.

He is in High school now.. still has a sever reading problem.. and problems with a school that really doesnt understand that he does have the condition and that he won't be placed on meds..
I think that there are truely some children that have the condition.. like my son that have only been diagnosed after complete testing..
I also believe that there are a bunch of kids that have been miss diagnosed, and placed on pills that the have no buisness being on..
Some children have naturally high energy and instead of pills would be better off if parents would remove sugar from the diets and get them outside doing some organised sport so that energy could be put to some good use.
well thats my two cents worth..

It would take a court order and imprisonment to force me to stop being a father to my child.

When will our courts use common sense as part of a legal precident? (spelling?) I know children are important but when will the rights of others get any consideration?

What if we were to fine/punish a parent who committs paternity fraud?
