In a word, no. I see it as a vocab builder and that's it. It's great for that. But I suppose the grammar is supposed to be all intuitive and I don't think that works if you are not a baby or toddler. Atleast it didn't work for my son and wouldn't work for me. I need direct teaching on things like conjugation. We often mock RS by using sentences like, "The boy is standing under the airplane holding a ball." Lots of vocab there, but *why*? My oldest couldn't say, "Where is the bathroom?" or "Do you speak Spanish?" by the end of 2 years. Granted, he is bright and lazy and fine with "C" work, but he memorizes stuff nearly instantly and still didn't get gain the ability to say every day sentences in Spanish. He couldn't do a present tense conjugation of the verb hablar or ser.

Yeah, yeah, compliment, right. Messed up men/women for that matter see a fire hydrant and get excited. Dismiss it. Flattery , especially inappropriate flattery, is dumb. -

I so cannot believe this works as I use like 14 ingredients in mine....but I am willing to try. -
I guess that should say layering tanks no layered.... My daughter and I bought 8 colors of tanks from SugarLips. These are "One Size Fits Most"....um, most 13 year olds. I am like a size 10 and hover btw a M and L. They are tourniquets on me. I loved these in concept as they have like 48 colors and cost $13. Anyone know of a company carrying tanks that actually fit women with "stuff"?:confused:

I'm right there with you....my oldest is a video game addict living in a hotel room. And he knew the Lord. Solidly. A 30 on his ACT. Sigh. My second son has been oppositional since age 2. Still at home but barely. Praying for them, wishing we didn't have to live through this hell. And praying and hoping for a better outcome with my last 3. Hard to be brave. Wanna talk (so to speak)?
