I have an up and down relationship with my mil, but we get along fairly well. Nothing like the horrible stories I've heard. Because of a break-down in our initial plans, dh and I ended up living with his parents for the first few years of our marriage (I was 18, he was 20 when we got married.) We didn't get out until ds#1 was 10 months. Our relationship has been better since we moved out. We live 5 minutes away, but we usually only see them at church, occasionally for lunch after church, and on holidays ( don't get me started on the way she "plans" things...:glare:)

Making the jump to HS...very nervous
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to seabrise's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Welcome to the forum and homeschooling! I can sympathize with your concerns about not keeping on top of things and falling behind. It sounds like you've half started so you have a better idea of what works and how you'll do more than someone who jumps in without that prior experience. I would defiantly homeschool them this summer, even at just 50% of what you'll be doing the rest of the year, to give you an even better idea. That could help you work out a schedule and figure out how to do multiple kids at multiple levels at the same time. At the very least you might be able to get them back up to a level they should be in their trouble areas. Explore the threads some more. There's a lot of good information on here from people with a LOT more experience than I do :D -
Sex Survey - Why a Problem?
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to goldberry's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:iagree: This is me as well. I don't think it's wrong to try to keep your child innocent for as long as possible, and asking these questions does seem to imply that the child knows what it is and thinks it's going on with classmates. -
What do you boys do?? In the heat esp.
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to busymama7's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Would he be interested in getting into woodworking? There's also a kit you can get on Amazon to build a working clock with just paper. If he likes paper models, there's a Cannon website where you can print out a bunch of cool models to build, especially famous world buildings. http://www.amazon.com/Zany-Wooden-Toys-That-Whiz/dp/1565233948/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I1VMO94MVP5SPC&colid=1RQP3USSTK5RN http://www.amazon.com/Make-Your-Working-Paper-Clock/dp/0060910666/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I3W0MHQNMA99O7&colid=1WLIVXSKWO225 http://cp.c-ij.com/en/contents/1006/ -

Ashley Madison. OMG. WTH?
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to LauraGB's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Not in the minority, I think. I am having a hard time understanding this as well. :glare: It used to be adultery was illegal, and I think it's still on the books in some places. -
Half of my kid's closest is boxes and plastic totes of old baby or in-between clothes. I have a small chest of drawers in the other half that as soon as the toddler bed is done being used will be pulled out to make room for more boxes and toys out of rotation. I also keep the little kid toys, swing, matching nursery bedding under the bed. I don't think that was much help, though...

L.A. Unified: A report card
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to Roadrunner's topic in General Education Discussion Board
His company actually hosts some of the CE classes for free. He gets most of his credits that way. They also hosted an $800 dollar class for an extra license for free, but he didn't get a raise because they don't use that skill/ability very often. -
L.A. Unified: A report card
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to Roadrunner's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Well, I've read Arguing with (word the forum won't let me use) so a lot of this came as no surprise, but I didn't know about getting paid to take collage courses. My husband is a RDA (registered dental assistant) and he's required to take "continuing education" courses to keep his license, and I think the doctors (dentists) have to do the same, and every course he's taken had to do with dentistry, and he doesn't get a raise for it. He gets to keep his job. Seems to me that should apply for the teachers as well. :glare: -
Ummm...I hesitate to suggest this since you have had so many babies that you have probably heard of this and have decided against it...but a nipple guard while nursing was wonderful for me. I, too, had horrible pain nursing, (I couldn't nurse without crying, either) and it was the only way I was able to continue, which was important to me. I got it from the lactation consultant at the hospital. Ds had no problem after the first time or two trying it.

Wondering if this could work
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to RebekahnDavidMom's topic in Accelerated Learner Board
Hey, I just saw that you posted this yesterday and haven't had any responses. I'm sorry about that :sad: I would suggest re-posting in the curriculum board. I hope you're still here, lurking around and learning from what other people have already written. I have a 4.5 yr old and I wish I had as many things as you do! Right now we're doing Right Start A and OPGTR off and on. I'd like to add more, I just don't have it all yet. I would go with what you're all ready doing, and add something new one at a time. You have time, so don't stress out too much. Maybe if your dh sees how well she does and she is bored in "real" school, maybe he'll change his mind. Good luck :001_smile: -

S/O how many threads do you feel you have killed? Over the years of embroidery projects and just plain sewing, I'd have to say somewhere between the 100's and 1,000's.- 1,977 replies

S/O Number of posts you average a day
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to mom31257's topic in General Education Discussion Board
2.27. I kinda try to keep it to 2, since I have a tendency to be very opiniated, and I'm trying not to put people off. However, posting on this thread http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=205608 ruins that ambition :tongue_smilie: -
Math question going around Facebook...
