TruthElixirX You are sadly mistaken if you think teachers teach for the money, or at least in the U.S. They re one of the most under paid professions currently for the amount of work they do. My mom is a teacher. She makes less than 30k a year. For going to college for...

TruthElixirX Thanks. :) Well, our current education system in the U.S. seems to produce two types of teachers: really really good ones and really really bad ones, with little in between the two extremes. Does your son have trouble in any other areas that he struggles...

TruthElixirX Thanks for not getting offended! I don't know, in my experience kid are pretty tolerant of someone who has ADHD, ADD, etc. Now if it might be detrimental to his self esteem, I don't know. I'm still in high school, and I can't remember anyone ever being...

TruthElixirX It isn't "here lately" like most people are saying, the older generation always sees the younger generation as disrespectful brats. Always. Jesus talked about the immorality then, people talk about it today. Can you tell me a time when people were more...

TruthElixirX Perhaps you should get off of your butt and become a productive member of society instead of posting on a message board and wondering what you should do? Grab life with your hands and shove its head underwater until it drinks. You're just floating through,...

I have a discussion about masonry. It has been long time likely void because only a couple of people responded it and they didn't have deep ideas about masonry. Then happily one day an actual Mason here in mylot decided to clarify...

TruthElixirX So, are you looking for some kind of conspiracy? Think the masons are out to get you? My grandpa is a mason, anyone can become one, you just have to ask. The "Grand Master" is as high as you can get, and he only controls lodges within his area. They...

TruthElixirX I know this will sound cruel, but have you considered that your child might have a learning disability, even if it is just a small one? I know no one wants to think it would be their child, but if you accept the fact early on you can get them the help they...

My husband and I dined last weekend at a seafood restaurant in our area that we go to quite often. He was starving so I suggested that we order an appetizer. He decided that he was in the mood for raw oysters. I said fine. It's...

TruthElixirX I would definitely go get this appraised, though I can't help but think it is not a real pearl. According to wikipedia they are VERY rare and hard to find.

My husband complains that I spend way too much time on the computer and not enough time around our daughter. Which is totally untrue in my opinion. He sleeps most of the day and doesn't see how much effort I put into being a full...

TruthElixirX I think it is very sad that you are asking for relationship advice regarding your marriage on a message board. I would think, the adult thing to do, would be to approach your husband and talk to him. It is a novel idea I know, but try it, communication...

TruthElixirX You just want confirmation that you shouldn't tell him. Tell him, or your entire relationship from here on out will be built on a lie that will devour you from the inside out, and rightfully so.

I am from Ireland and it is becoming more and more common for children not to be invited to weddings. This is because weddings are very expensive to have, costing around 50 euro per head for the meal, music etc. Also, some people...

TruthElixirX I think if it is getting so expensive and formal that you cannot invite the children of your friends and relatives you need to take a step back and ask yourself why you're spending so much money. People are way to frivolous with spending these days.

TruthElixirX Ignore the feminazi. Exceptions to the rule don't make the rule. I am 17 and most of the time I hold the door open for anyone; adults, teenagers, women, men, small children, etc.

TruthElixirX You just need to let go and do what makes you happy. To keep on forcing this stuff to the front isn't working. Just relax, time heals all things.

TruthElixirX It depends, some movies are shot in full screen instead of wide screen, so when they make it into wide screen they chop off the top. However, most wide screen movies are shown in wide screen and shot that way, so you are actually seeing more of the...
