flipper29 It's time for discipline. People seem afraid to discipline their kids nowadays. It's time for a spanking and to have some toys taken away if she gets up. I've had to do it, and it's not fun, but then it's not about me. it's about setting rules and doing what...

I mean really how do we know anything is real? When you wake up in the morning how do you know you are not still dreaming? What proof do you have that all this isn't fake. Maybe we are all the images in the dreams of some other...

flipper29 Ah...existentialism. We have no "prrof" that anything at all is real. We make our own reality every day. A dream may be "real" and the day to day life made up in our minds.

Parents Who Don't Know When to Quit Parenting

Pigglies @Pigglies (9329) • United States 28 Dec 06

My parents wanted to shelter me as much as possible as I grew up. Even now that I'm 21, they are always telling me things that would make more sense to tell a 16 year old. Or an irresponsible 21 year old. But I'm pretty...

flipper29 If you live with them, you have to live under heir rules. You could live in the dorm, or get a few friends together to live with. Sharing expenses makes it very possible for students to move out of the house. I did it. You want someone to wash your clothes and...

flipper29 They are straight up scams most of the time. I kept getting stuck in te ones that finish the survey, then require you to look at offers for awhile. You have to deny the offers, then a new page of offers comes on. This can go on for 20 minutes or more and I...

flipper29 That is an awful lot of changes to occur at one time. To geet him to talk, just listen. Listen to everything he says. Try repeating a few phrases that he speks to show him that you are listening.

NASA recently announced the coming contruction of a Space Station on the Moon.

dutchess67 @dutchess67 (917) • United States 27 Dec 06

According to predictions this is due to be completed sometime around 2025 (I may be wrong as I'm operating from memory here) and they're aiming to have this be a global effort rather than just an American one. I have thought...

flipper29 I'm not buying it. It's just a Bush political game. The timeframe is so far away there will be several administrations between now and then, and any one of them can axe it.
