<t>Good luck to you with your petition. Wish I could sign it. My youngest daughter has CP....along with some other maladies.

That's great news.....glad to hear it. Hope you are doing all right too, observer1.

hugs to you.

<r>Hi Happy,<br/> <br/> You have gotten some good advice here. There really isn't much to add but I have a couple of tricks that work for me. My problem is not being able to defend myself when I think others are being ugly, or their way off base in what they think I said, etc....you get the picture....

WONDERFUL NEWS!!!!! Glad she is going to be all right. Hope you will be too.

hugs,

<t>You didn't mention Tiff crying when she came in the house with the tooth in the egg and a mouth full of blood. Is it possible that the "heathen" children were trying to help Tiff? They may have wanted to help her get the tooth fairy to come back without having to wait for another tooth to fall ou...

What a beautiful post. You are exactly where you need to be. Enjoy spending time with your new friend. I am sure it will be healing for both of you.

warmth,

Why do you need your husband to go with you to talk to the parents? If you want to defend your daughter you should. No one needs to give you permission.

<t>I feel sorry for your friend too. His actions were cold and calculated. He knew he could hurt her and figured out which would have the most profound effect. I am confident that your friend is torn and doesn't understand why he is doing this. She is in love.....but not with 'him'...she is in love ...

<t>This is a curiosity of mine.....why does the American history that is taught in our schools differ from what people outside the US learn?<br/> <br/> Like the Skull and Bones Society and most world leaders belonging to it.

The kids will find something; anything to tease them about and as the parent you will handle it to the best of your abilit...
