Making friends is like dating.

Oh, I really understand where you are coming from! -
LOL, usually counting to 3 works great for my 4 year old. SHe has seen me in action enough to know that I just might follow through with what I say I am going to do. My 2 year old just counts along with me and is super proud when he knows the next number. I usually have to get him occupied with something else to distract him from any naughtiness. My 4 year old is an excellent listener for a 4 year old. My 2 year old is joyful with his naugtiness. He is just so curious. I want him to remain curious without killing himself in the process.

Pain and hardships are relative. Knowing that someone has it worse should not cause you to minimize how you feel. There are times we all can 'suck it up' a little bit and there are times a vent is in order, LOL. What is that saying? Dont add up your hardships, count your blessings? I get it but it does not help me sleep better at night when things are going downhill and stressing me out. So, be kind to yourself and dont be afraid to ask for help/support.

Question based on California editorial
fosterisacoolcat replied to Mamasteff's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Well, first of all, HS being treated as a Private school is how it is done in Texas, it ensures that the state has no jurisdiction. As for the concerns raised about the kids who were mistreated, that would have happened even if they were in school. The parents would not have been better parents just because the children were in public school. I dont see how this example is relevant. THis issue is people not acting as parents, HS'ing really is not the issue. -
Are you vocal in birth?
fosterisacoolcat replied to PeterPan's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I hollered pretty loud when I told my birth partners (DH was offshore and could not be there for #2) that I need to push to go get the doc. They just stood there and stared at me for about a full 10 seconds until I screamed to GET THE 'insert F word' DOC!!! That created some motion. Other than that I grunted a lot and made some noises indicating effort. I am SO not one of those women who is willing to endure in silence. -
Could I have handled that any worse?

How about yoga? Walking? I suspect she is at that stage where one feels that everyone is staring and noticing every.little.thing. I hope you find something! -
