Heather Echola Not much different than those wraps that sweat it off. I would find them so uncomfortable. I would rather do some real exercise. I know that the shoes for toning do not necessarily make you lose weight, but they do improve posture and strengthen your core if...

What is your opinion? Is spanking a loving or harmful form of discipline?

la_chique I dont disagree with spanking. At least parents that do it are actually enforcing discipline but i think theres more constructive ways to discipline. I've seen countless parents spank their child for hitting or physically hurting a sibling which is just...

I worked with a wonderful nurse who made the best coffee in our employee break room. She would add the coffee grounds to the basket and then.....she salted the coffee grounds before she started the brewing process. Have you heard...

Heather Echola I did look it up, and it was to smooth out the acidity. The egg in the coffee is usually used with "creek bank" coffee. Throw the grounds in the water, boil the life out of it, then crack the egg in and it glops all the grounds and they settle to the bottom.

Heather Echola The day we clean the coffee maker we put a scoop of baking soda down each drain and pour the hot vinegar from cleaning the coffee maker down the drain, followed by hot water. I use vinegar in my laundry and skip the fabric softeners. It does not completely...

Heather Echola I have been known to put a water softener pellet in the cup, as it is pre measured and we had some cause we were trying to kill tree roots. Now that that problem is gone, I use vinegar, because I keep it on hand for everything. I put about a quarter of a cup...

I am beginning to think that having high school students study parenting is as important as studying a foreign language and other subjects. It seems to me that parenting skills are really lacking in our society of late. When I go...

wilsongoddard Some public schools do have classes on child raising. Mine had a Home Ec class on the matter. There, of course, wasn't a male in sight. However, you're making the assumption that public schools would do any better a job at teaching parenting than the other...

sirnose No, I don't find it strange that state lotteries advertise in this matter. The state lotteries have been doing this for years. The lottery I play every now and then will offer buy five quick picks and get one quick pick free. So, it's really not that odd the...

marguicha I do all sorts of things with kale as I also planted several plants. I make a soup with broth (or a cube), kale, a leek and milk. I blend it and serve it with parmesan cheese. As a side dish, I boil kale, take out all the water and mince it with a knife (no...

peavey I've read several times of making kale chips, where you cut away the ribs and lightly salt the kale leaf then dry it in the sun or a dehydrator. It's supposed to make a really good snack or you can toss it into cooked dishes. One "recipe" that I discovered...

Heather Echola I agree with you on this one. Many behaviors are contagious. I used to work with little kids and saw it there as well. When your anxious person is even expected people will be building up tense feelings about the situation because they never know exactly what...

jokerzhunter Yes very much so. If there is a person like that near you, you can just feel it, and without you noticing it, you somehow start feeling like that too. However there are some people who are extremely laid back, those ones never get anxious, its just how they...

Adoniah To those who are susceptible...anxiety is very contagious. When the noise level rises in a room, it can become very uncomfortable for everyone. It can even cause violence.

finlander60 Our home has open closets and we never close our doors, inside. We do have someone else that will take care of our cats anytime we go somewhere for however long, though. What was the first thing he did after you discovered him?

finlander60 As far as I'm concerned, the parents should be charged with not controlling their child. If they can't control that child they have no business being in there. The parents, in this example, NEED TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON.

ladym33 This is an example of one of those frivolous law suits. The child was the one who caused the accident, the parents didn't stop their child from misbehaving so they are at fault. The fact that they would even consider suing the restaurant is obserd, they should...

haopee A restaurant is a public place. It's not a playhouse. It wasn't built for children to run along in. Even if they sue the restaurant, I doubt they'd win it because the restaurant had nothing to do with it except having been chosen by that family to dine in...

Awinds What kind of parent lets their child run wild in a public place? A bad parent. The restaurant has no control of the child, nor do they have any responsibility for the child. The restaurant is a food service. Obviously they are not a daycare center that is...
