I was making a schooling related decision for my then-teenaged Oldest child. A friend said "I would do whatever is best for Oldest".. i asked her "what if what is best for Oldest is worst for everyone else involved? Does the impact on the rest of us not matter because it is best for him?" To be fair her children were quite young and they had a different family dynamic... but even as a mom who nursed two of my kids til well past two.... best can mean a lot of things. Are there lots of ways and times when breastmilk is absolutely the best for both child and mother? Yes. Are there other factors in every decision? Yes. I think encouraging and supporting more nursing is something we as a society need to get behind. I think the new moms right this minute should be helped to make that choice if possible in lo ight of the current situation... but saying heartless nonsense to mothers of older babies who are worried about feeding their babies helps NOBODY.

A Snoop cam seems like a GREAT idea. What I saw of him was just so fun.

Meanwhile Johnny's other ex wife https://www.tmz.com/2016/05/28/johnny-depp-ex-wife-denies-abuse/ and three long term girlfriends/partners say this isn't in his character. Winona Ryder (together 4 years) https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/jul/16/johnny-depp-did-not-retaliate-abuse-amber-heard-court-told Vanessa Paradis (partner of 14 years, mother of his 2 children) https://stylecaster.com/johnny-depp-vanessa-paradis/ Though Ellen Barkin does say he threw a bottle on set once. And Jennifer Grey says he was paranoid. Kate Moss says she regrets breaking up with him- he was arrested for busting up a hotel room while they were together but she later trashed hotel rooms herself... never any accusation of abuse. https://people.com/celebrity/johnny-depp-inside-his-volatile-1990s-romance-with-kate-moss/

How long to recover from a migraine?
theelfqueen replied to Ann.without.an.e's topic in The Chat Board
It usually takes me a good two days to break the migraine hangover. One day lost to migraine One day fuzzy, exhausted and off. "Feel like I've been hit by a truck" day. One day feeling generally hungover. -
If you've enforced a break from a sport, how did that work?
theelfqueen replied to Drama Llama's topic in The Chat Board
When my youngest broke his wrist and elbow, his physical therapist insisted he couldn't shoot (archery - he was a well ranked bare-bow archer who won several buckles) for more than a year. In the meantime he found karate which didnt involve contact sparring for quite a while and he has been doing that ever since.... didnt ever pick up his bow again. But he is training for his black belt now. -
Anyone else wrapping up homeschooling career?

Me .. DS 17 will be full time (15 Credit hours) at the Community College this fall and is officially part of a public school program from here forward (they pay for two years at the CC). I'm helping him prep for some CLEP/DSST exams right now so he can focus on his Cybersecurity degree and knock out the pre-req stuff (College Comp, College Algebra, Information systems, public speaking, and technical writing, maybe one more. At the end of the Summer I submit his transcript to the public district and he does the rest with them and graduates with them. -

I think I'm blaming you when I make hush puppies this afternoon. My family does NOT need fried balls of cornmeal Magic but now I do. -
