I didn't go down with the ship, or in this case, the kayak

DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 22 Jul 23

This morning, two other members of my camping club and I got up early to go kayaking on the lake. The waterfront opens at 7:30 and we were there and on the water by 7:50. The lake was calm and peaceful. The sky was overcast. The...

Paddling in the stream.

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (30756) • Lichfield, England 4 Jan 20

When I used to go up to my Grandma Brown's house we used to go up onto Gentleshaw Common. I remember there was a lot of heather up there. But nearer home, just by the road, there was a stream. You got to it by crossing a style. Me...

A New way to Travel

Ron Rybs @Ronrybs (21497) • London, England 6 Apr 16

I haven't seen this before. Walking back from the shops, I spotted this chap working his way along the canal, rather slowly. This way of getting around must be more suited to California or Florida than England, on an early...

Should children be Spanked?

drsenergy @drsenergy (159) • United States 27 May 09

I think that both parents should agree on the best way, to discipline their children. I definitely think children should be spanked as a form of discipline and that the principals should have this option in our schools.

The issue of an Principal spanking a child. Would you allow it or not?

cream97 @cream97 (29085) • United States 19 Mar 09

As a parent, would you allow your child or any child that you are taking care of, be subjected to getting a paddling by their school's principal? When a child first gets admitted to school, they will have a parent to fill out a...

Spare the rod, spoil the child.

lolalolacherrycola @lolalolacherrycola (899) • United States 13 Apr 08

I think the biblical reference to "spare the rod, spoil the child" is misinterpreted very often. The rod used by shepherds was for guidance, not a tool to spank them with. A lot of research has shown that spanking leads to...

rhowie @rhowie (3) • Philippines 29 Jan 07

I have been training and playing dragon boat paddling for many years now, and yet it has not become a "talk-of-town" sport unlike many ball sports such as basketball, volleyball, football, and soccer. I enjoy and love this sport...
