don't really know how to handle this.... Teens and porcupines handle with gloves, more for your sake. Babies sniff check before handling. Kids you can handle in a good sized box.- 2,729 replies

How do/did YOU handle everyday toddler-ness? Lots and lots of coffee, a good sense of humor and baby gates. Underbed storage for off-season clothing I keep my monster under there. He would be mad if I started shoving my stinky snow boots under there.- 2,729 replies

If you have multiple kids: combine or keep separate? I keep combined, until they fight. Then I separate them out.- 2,729 replies

Am I right to worry that a grand piano would spoil a kid? If you dropped it on them you might spoil them. You would probably cry out MTHFR if it landed on your toe.- 2,729 replies

I thought I was done after two wonderful girls, but didn't get my tubes done. My accidental third pregnancy and delivery was a absolute nightmare. I got my tubes done. I miss it sometimes. I think its normal to always have a little ache. Do I regret it. No. Not one tiny bit.

IDs for children flying? Hang glider, slingshot, or catapult. I herd that pterodactyls were once a choice that went out of fashion. Stay away from umbrellas, I here they cause E.R. cases. Speaking of which a helmet is highly recommended. You could do a unit on physics. Nothing like learning while flying.- 2,729 replies

Practical ways to be free range parents
SageRebel replied to PeacefulChaos's topic in The Chat Board
I live in the middle of nowhere on twenty acres. There is no one around for 10 miles or more. I let the kids roam free. The rules are go together, take the dogs, if the coyotes get close leave, and be home when the sun touches the mountains west. Winter time I am a little more strict but they are less likely to roam far. I let my ten year old drive home. I have seen a 9 year old in a truck in town. I don't want her in town because people are involved. So, my roads only. The town is that small. Everyone gets their own post box because they don't won't do mail service, for anyone. There is no library, no park. They have general store, a doctor, and an ambulance (that couldn't find me when I needed them). Just a small school that is prek-12. I let her work the stove with me by her side. She is actually doing good. She helps with all aspects of dinner, and lunch. I let her work the wood stove we have here for heat. She cares for animals. She raises baby kittens. She handles her own money, and even let her shop someone independently. I go over plans with her on gardening, bartering, or going to the auction so she can understand. I could ask her this person wants me to sell him 2 quarts of goat milk for a bunny? Good idea or bad? Why? My middle is starting to learn the lessons my oldest did to get her to her independence level. That is hard to let them do things on there own. For example, if you throw things at the turkey it will hurt you. The middle is also starting to be entrusted with raising baby animals, and taking care of plants. I like to sit back and let them deal with what they can. Both of my girls kill their own spiders, because I know they can. My oldest loves to build things like tire swings and bridges (2.5ft max). I let them have hammers and nails, screws, and drills. Saws are supervised. We did have to go in for a tentnis shot, but no one has hurt themselves in the tree house. Cute baby goats are on the way here in another month. I am so rural, that even I am no good in the bigger cities. I think I would be way more freaked if I was urban. -
Anyone have a child with an anxiety disorder?
SageRebel replied to zarabellesmom's topic in The Chat Board
Both of mine had similar issues. They have trauma anxiety. My middle has it the roughest. She is my aspie baby, on top of the anxiety. If I get mad at her she will beg me not to abandon her again. She gets violent, and throws things. Both of my kids it took them almost a year to let me pee alone, 2 months to get the oldest out of my bed, 3 for the middle who is now sleeping with her sister. They won't sleep alone. The wake up and have to check to see if I am there, and wake me up. I spend most of my day with them attached to me. I am an aspie with, pstd, and depression. Its not easy. -

Have you ever had someone whose voice just grates on your nerves?
SageRebel replied to DawnM's topic in The Chat Board
Smacking or clicking while talking, nasally voices, and just some dialects sound like nails on a chalk board. There is a Latin DVD we listen to and it is so hard for me not to want to throw the thing out the window. Very high pitched, or loud. I had a relater agent that screamed not talked the whole time we were talking to her. I asked hubby if she had a hearing impediment. Nope she was naturally that loud. I couldn't be in the car with her, or on the phone. I always thought it was the Aspie in me. -

Let's share how we set up OneNote
SageRebel replied to happypamama's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I have one Notebook labeled Homeschool. I have the first tab as schedule. In the pages I have the daily flow first, then a field trip hope toos page. I have one tab with all the pages one for every week 36 pages with the weeks number and the date. I have a page that shows when a new quarter/semester starts. That way I have a goals, and rough outline for the next block. I even have the weeks in there that we are off. Those are planing and catch up pages that I use as a to-do list. I have The Dew and The Deet scheduled together here. That way I open the page and I know what is going on for the day. I have it on my tablet as well as my laptop so I can just pick up and go. I have a tab for each kid that has pages for each subject. I have a page that has all of my read alouds for each child. I have big books with lots of stories. Instead of taking the books down to find a story I have them broken down on the pages. I have done it with Mother Goose, and Hans Christan Anderson Complete tales, (among others) so I can look at it all without leafing through the book. -
My oldest is breaking the reading code. My middle is dying to start doing school with me. Finally got back into the habit of reading, and playing with the kids before bed. The jumper thingy I bought the baby so she could be apart without mauling and mangling everything in sight. My new way of organizing the school, and my homestead. Coffee, dear sweet lovely coffee!!

I am only 29 but last year I was 75-80 years old. I was on oxygen, still am at night, and using a walker. I moved slower than frozen water. I wore slippers 2/7. Saggy boobies, thanks nursing, but from my great grandmas veiw point its won't get much worse. I needed bars to use the potty and shower. I could only climb 4 steps. Needed a nap preferably 2 or three. Getting out of bed was a fiasco. No one trusted me in the kitchen, or would let me drive, very good thing. I miss the walker. I could whack people that irked me in the ankles, and they wouldn't know the difference. It made flirting very very awkward. I honestly feel sorry for anyone that has to put up with me when I get very old. Now I would say I am 50 and dropping down to where I should be. The kinks are containable, noisy and painful, but containable. My hormones aren't all over the chart. :laugh:
