Yikes! You can block online with sprint. Also, your phone might have an option to block to if you go into other options from the text she sent you.

I read the blog post several times. I had to think about it. It sounds like she was unhappy with the education that was being given to Rhino. She doesn't sound like she was committed to homeschooling but committed to trying something else for her daughter. Perhaps that is why she wasn't interested in the book about homeschooling. It sound if she had another option other than homeschooling, she would have done it. As it is, she tried it. It wasn't for her. She's moved on.

I mostly make an effort to avoid confrontation, as I was brought up by a mother who confronted everyone on everything. My mother's behaviour mostly caused a lot of wasted effort and emotion and damaged relationships, it was rare that anything good came out of her confronting people. My rule is to confront only if it is highly likely that in the end it will improve a situation.
Yes! The trouble is knowing if the confrontation is going to really improve the situation. Unless someone directly asks what you think, and depending on how you confront, it could destructive and construed as judgmental. I will admit again, I don't like confrontation. So, if someone doesn't ask me, I rarely confront. What is the point of the confrontation anyway if you know in the end it won't do any good and you will end up walking away?

No way in Hades would I want a male LLL leader.
Nope, nope, nope, nope.
:iagree: I don't want a male ob/gyn and I don't want a male LLL leader either.

Just heard about it on the radio. Ugh...

Thanks for sharing. It looks interesting!
-
Does it have a direct impact on me? Do I have to regularly interact with them? Then, I confront. Otherwise, I mind my own business and/or start avoiding them.
Great questions! What if it doesn't have a negative impact on you but you see that it will for them but you know if you say anything, it could cost you the friendship?

I think you need to start giving her some assignments to keep her busy and out of your hair;)

Under what circumstances do you think you should confront a person about behavior or situation? What good does confrontation do? If they ask me, I am honest about what I think. Just curious people's thoughts about this! I am very hesitant to confront people about a behavior.

I'm so glad you know where he is! :grouphug:

We use it only if we are having a serious sun day. All day at a waterpark, beach, etc. For a few hours at the park, we don't use it at all. We are very fair skinned. I've always thought there was some balance between getting enough vitamin d and not getting burned.
:iagree: Same here.
-
Iron? What's that?;) So, probably not unless they become interested in this on their own.

I call it " truth week". It is the week I get to say everything I think all month long, but am too nice to say.
:D Yes this is the week. How do I know? I am way too emotional about everything. It is a sure bet when I start sobbing about some random event that happened that really is just no big deal. Ugh...I hate it. I am sure my family hates it more;)

I was.... I haven't seen one yet and am interested in getting one and now I'm very thankful to know that some don't fit under the cabinets, that would have been an unwelcome surprise. Where on earth would one keep it..... I guess not together in the cupboard, and that makes it a space hog!
If I don't put the cap on, I can have the base and container under the on the counter top. It just barely fits. This means I can spend too much time trying to figure out where the top was put upon dishwasher removal.

What does a vitamix do to the countertops??
:D Just in case you are serious and not being humorous, it doesn't fit under the cabinets.

I would help but only every so often. I would definitely say no the next couple times you are asked. Can any of your kids volunteer in the food tent or help watch the others? (I don't know how old they are). The concern is not that you want to be helpful, but how does this impact what you are doing and your family?
-
Yay! Now you have to explain to us what exactly that is.;)

:grouphug::grouphug: Glad to hear he is stable.

:grouphug:Yes. I thought my mom's breathing seemed calmer because it was slower. Really, it was just slowing down until she just stopped breathing altogether.
If you want to be in the room, I would. I would be tempted to ask the nurse who is in the room if it seemed like MIL seemed agitated to let you know and you would leave. Make sure whatever choice you make, to listen to SIL or not, that you are o.k. with maybe not being in there at the end.

I really liked the books. The movie was better than I expected. My ds really wanted to see the movie, but dh nixed that. We told him he could read the books. I think although the books were graphic, the picture you create in your head is different than the images you see in the movie.
