I did not fill in last year's census. I only filled in how many people live in my house. I included a letter and relevant parts of the constitution. A census worker showed up and asked if I'd like to give her more info. I said nope and she left. No fine, nothing.

Hmm....I keep hearing it's advanced but when I went over the samples with my daughter she flew through them. Are the samples not a very good example of the type of work involved? Should I just start from the beginning?

I'm planning on switching to this and have some questions. We are already halfway through our school year, so would I start with the second reader and light units or should I start from the beginning? How many lessons are in each light unit? About how long does a lesson take? Thanks.

It sounds like blepharitis. I would take him to an opthomologist (sp?) to be sure. -
Door to Door Religious Visitors
bluecalmsea replied to KingM's topic in General Education Discussion Board
The thing is, JWs believe that they are the ONLY true Christians and that teachings of Christendom (which they use this word in a negative context) are of the devil (trinity, hellfire, the Pope for you Catholics). For those of you that seriously do not want them to come to your house, the only thing that will work is to ask to be on their "do not call list". Telling them you are not interested or that you are an atheist etc etc will do no good. Also, a no soliciting sign will not work either because they don't believe that they are soliciting. Lovedtodeath,I just wanted to mention that for quite some time I was one of those who was raised Christian and turned away from God, but I was raised as a JW. It turned me away from loving God for many years. bluecalmsea edited to add: um...why do my posts always squish together? There are supposed to be paragraphs... -
Anyone using the current science? I'm looking into using one of these for 2nd grade. What are the worksheets and experiments like? The IG and wkst samples I saw online weren't helpful.... Which books would I need to buy and which can I use the library? Thanks.

You might want to take a look at the pages here: http://www.kellymom.com/babyconcerns/growth/index.html Do you know if the growth chart your dr uses is one based on formula fed babies, or one based on breastfed ones? There's a difference. Here's more on that: http://www.kellymom.com/babyconcerns/growth/growthcharts.html I second (3rd? 4th?) the suggestion to look into food allergies. Try cutting all dairy out of your diet and see if the eczema improves. bluecalmsea

I suggest everyone leave the OP alone. What books she chooses for her children is between her and God. And for those who keep mentioning the snake in the garden....SATAN made it talk not God. I can totally see why MommyInTraining did not want to discuss this except through PMs. She is accountable to God for what she chooses, not YOU (collective you). bluecalmsea

Are these any good? I'm considering the human body one. Scrounging up my own materials and ideas for experiments just isn't working anymore. thanks.

Did Judas go to heaven? CC
bluecalmsea replied to Pretty in Pink's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Pam isn't Mormon. She's a Jehovah's Witness. I'm sure she'll correct me if I'm wrong... JW's believe that before Jesus died, those who died had a chance of being resurrected to Earth, which they believe will be return to it's pre-fall state. They also believe that only 144,000 people have the hope of heaven, and others will live on the aforementioned new earth. Did I get that right, Pam? -
16 year old DOESN'T want to drive
bluecalmsea replied to JennifersLost's topic in General Education Discussion Board
My thoughts.... I didn't have my license till last year and I'm 25!!! I don't think there is anything wrong w/ waiting. Driving is a very serious and dangerous thing. I can't even begin to tell you how many near-accidents I've been in due to other drivers. But I have much quicker reflexes now and the ability to make split-second decisions. -
Is it bad net etiquette to ...
bluecalmsea replied to Amber in AUS's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I agree w/ keptwoman. The kellymom site doesn't say that babies under 18 mo *never* wean, just that it doesn't happen as often as people claim. I don't understand why you would be so defensive about it. -
Help w/ college app. essay format PLEASE
bluecalmsea replied to bluecalmsea's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Thank you very much :) bluecalmsea -
I have to write a short essay for my nursing school application and don't know how. I have my essay but I don't know how to format it as I've never had to do this..... Do I put my contact info on it? If so, where? Do I double space (and what does that mean anyhow?). I haven't been in school for years and don't remember how to do these things LOL Thanks. bluecalmsea

Where are our doctors?
bluecalmsea replied to Remudamom's topic in General Education Discussion Board
If it bled, she should be fine. Tetanus needs an anaerobic enviro, and if you're bleeding there's oxygen (um...something like that...I' don't think I'm wording it well). Also, if there is a risk of tetanus then it is NOT a booster that you need. You would need a shot of TIG--tetanus immunoglobulin. bluecalmsea -
Has anyone had a VBA2C?
bluecalmsea replied to Philothea's topic in General Education Discussion Board
http://www.mothering.com/discussions Head over to the VBAC forum under the "Birth and Beyond" section. You'll find lots of help there! http://www.ican-online.org (I think that's the address...it's for the Int'l Cesarean Awareness Network) They have lots of helpful info. bluecalmsea -

My INDOOR cats have fleas! ????
bluecalmsea replied to Nestof3's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Has your cat been to the vet? That's where mine got 'em. She had to stay overnight for surgery and was TOTALLY infested by the time we came to pick here up!!! I didn't realize it till a few days later, though. I had never seen flea poop before and didn't know what all those black things were... eeeew. We do not go to that vet anymore. bluecalmsea -
Which one for animals? Kingfisher First Encyclopedia of Animals DK First Animal Encyclopdia National Geographic Encyclopdia of Animals Which for human body? Kingfisher First Human Body Encyclopdia (how much detail does it have on reproduction, btw?) DK First Human Body Encyclopdia Now then...how should we go about studying animals? By habitats or classes? I thought I read Trivium Academy (don't remember her real name!) mention wishing she had done them by habitat. I;m planning on doing science 2 or 3x/wk. We have 2 conservation centers nearby and a lake. Would you study local wildlife just casually by nature study, or incorporate them into the main science lessons? Am I making sense? I'm probably over-thinking these things, but this is my first "official" year and I want to have my ducks in a row. bluecalmsea
