  1. Subbing, because I'm interested in this too. I know KarenAnne has often spoke of these resources. My kiddos are a bit too young for these to be of use to me now, but I do occasionally peruse my copies when I start a new history "topic" with ds, just to familiarize myself with some of the major themes and issues of a particular era. Not much of an answer to your question though. I hope you get more reponses. I'm :bigear:.

  2. Dh would absolutely hate that I'm trying to pass along "medical" information on the internet, so please take what I say with a grain of salt, do additional research, speak to your doctor, yada, yada...

     

    I just wanted to say that dh is a family practice doctor who also has eczema. He successfully treats his own eczema and that of several of his patients with a high-quality fish oil. One of his patients is a young girl who has severe eczema. The body produces an inflammatory response (to allergens, but also other triggers), and apparently the omegas and other factors in the fish oil lower that inflammatory response.

     

    Just adding another idea to check out.

  3. That is a really good point! My son has inheritated (or aquirred) some really wonderful traits from my husband.

     

    I have to stop focussing on the negative. It really just discourages me, and it serves no constructive purpose. I'm glad that I shared here because this is something that I have been struggling with. Thanks to everyone for your insights.

     

    :iagree: My husband's entire family (it seems) has sensory processing, learning, mood or personality disorders. :tongue_smilie: I like to joke that I married into a family of complete wackos.

     

    Dh is dyslexic. Probably ADHD too. He also graduated from Berkeley, received a full scholarship to medical school as a Regent scholar, scores in the 98th percentile of medical exams and boards, and is a generous, kind, loving man who more often than not puts the needs of others above his own. He regularly credits his learning disabilities as the reason he had to develop strength of character and perseverance. If my son inherits even a part of his father's integrity, I'll be grateful for the learning disabilities that he has to deal with.
