SilPhil I could go on forever about this!! I love that my husband doesn't laugh at me. He's very good outdoors and with practical, handyman type stuff. I want to be good at those things, but I'm not really. I try and do things, and use the wrong tools, or do it the...

SilPhil I don't really know if there's any one way to tell if you're ready or not!! If you have the room in your house and lives, as well as your heart, and the finances to support a child (and a parent who will need to be off work for a period of time), then...

SilPhil Is there perhaps a family friend, or a teacher or someone your friend could confide in? Sometimes it can be hard to turn to our parents and tell them whats wrong, and what we're feeling. But rather than taking the phsycologist approach, perhaps there is an...

Why do people give opinions when they have little knowledge about a subject?

lbruno533 @lbruno533 (4) • United States 21 Mar 08

People want to be part of society in one way or another, possessing a natural human desire to be part of something. I understand that; we do not want to be alone on this great big planet. We seek companionship, and we seek to...

SilPhil I agree - that has got to be the best episode. When it said 'to be continued' after the first part, I was freaking out! Thank God Australia is far behind the rest of the world, and I could check online to make sure Nick was going to be okay!!!
