I was watching a video of this woman and her son, and how she has neighbors who show up for them all of the time. She's a single mom and lives far from her family, and she has several neighbors who show up and do things for her...

Judy Evans @sissy15 I'm sure that was the very best way to handle the situation. You don't want to quash his confidence but you need to keep him safe. Good for you.

Something I've noticed along the way when it comes to raising my son is how small his audience is whenever he has anything going on. He has had soccer and t-ball games, once we realized he isn't a sports kid, he had school plays...

celticeagle @sissy15 .......Love and support are very important. Hopefully he will become more confident and not wonder so about why people like and love him as he gets older.

Judy Evans @sissy15 There doesn't seem to be a 'middle ground'. It seems with everything, the pendulum swings much too far one way then starts to swing back but all the way the other way. It never stops in the middle for too long.

Judy Evans @sissy15 Unfortunately men are very loath to make too much fuss of young children - or any fuss at all - for fear of the parents getting upset. It's a tricky path around children at the moment and I don't suppose it's going to get any better.

Judy Evans @sissy15 You're right about kids being fine till outside influences start impacting on them.

I often think about my 90s childhood. It was very different from the way kids today are being raised. I remember the 5th-grade camp I went to with a fondness that stays with me to this day. I do have to say there was one part of...

Judy Evans @sissy15 Thanks for the explanation. I can understand the reasoning but sometimes things get a bit too politically correct - in my opinion anyway.

The Horse @sissy15 We had"scary stories" at my Summer Camp as well. I think one of the creatures we had to look out for (especially on camp outs) was called "Stumpy."

Yesterday was a nightmare in so many ways for me. The day started strong with a 2 hour delay, which was nice because I could sleep in a little before work. The issue with working at a school is that when there is a 2 hour delay,...

Marie Coyle @sissy15 Whatever the reason they have for doing these things, is not good. A person has to take them seriously because you never know if it's a prank or not.

It has been a bit since I last posted. I've had an interesting time away. Most recently, I woke up to some shocking news. Not bad news, but still shocking. I was having some back pain the night before, up until I got online in the...

Yesterday was the day. The day we put a family friend in the ground, way too soon. This one has hurt probably more than most of the other funerals I've been to. I think it's because she was so young and she was leaving behind her...

ultraman cosmos @sissy15 Indeed. The only one that I cannot attend was the one that I was under the Radioactive Iodine medication which I have to stay away from the elderly due to the rad I could still emit from the medication. Hence I will have to skip the funeral....

Talking about Cary Grant got me thinking about my own childhood trauma. I want to preface this by saying I had an amazing childhood with loving parents, but just like anyone else, my parents were flawed. I feel like you can't...

rsa101 @sissy15 I believe that as parents, we all have a certain level of imperfection because there is no perfect formula for being a good parent to our children. Even though we try to avoid the negative experiences we had with our parents, we continue to have them...
