polachicago I did see this article. Look at this, it is on the same page. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/5043328.stm I don't want anyone test on apes, they are my friends. They are so smart and so emotional, just thinking about makes me cry.

I am appalled to read that the government is planning on spending more money on the education of children in poor areas (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/6901659.stm). So now not only do children who are door poorer...

recycledgoth People never understood why, when my son was much younger, I restricted the amount of television he was allowed to watch. I wanted my son to enjoy playing outside and reading, enjoying his childhood rather than sat in front of the television. Neither my...
