Do you know what your children are watching?

Ever heard of the "Avatar"? Did you know that an Avatar is primarily from the Hindu religion, and is a form of a higher being or Supreme Being on earth? Did you know that kids are being taught the Hindu religion from this...

Lilhawkins8 I did know that about avatars and my kids and I talked about it, because we all like the show. We've studied the Hindu religion, along with other world religions as part of our mythology studies. My kids know that cartoons and anime aren't real and they know...

fiveisallofus @fiveisallofus (273) • United States 21 Jan 07

I have been told by teachers friends and Doctors that my son, who is now 10, needed to be put on medication since he was in preschool. That he has ADD! Every year it is a battle with the schools and teachers. He was held back for...

Lilhawkins8 My 16 year old son has ADD and my 9 year old daughter has ADHD. They're homeschooled, so they don't struggle in school anymore, but they both prefer to take Concerta, because they say they have extreme brainfog without it. Plus, my daughter says whatever comes...

Lilhawkins8 I don't have asthma, but my 16 yr old son does. He also has anxiety attacks and thinks that the two things are connected. He used to have to use his inhalers daily when he went to school, because it caused him so much anxiety. But since he's been learning at...

monica1216 @monica1216 (509) • United States 12 Jan 07

Researchers really do not know. They have been looking at many possible causes of this skin disease for a long time. And then ofcourse there are tons of products out on the market trying to convince you that they know what causes...

Lilhawkins8 I think my rosacea is worse because of sun damage and not covering up when it's windy and cold. I've always had ruddy skin and had acne in my teens, but when I was in my fifties, I developed full blown rosacea. It started the day after I went outside in a...

Lilhawkins8 If I were you, I'd take him to the vet and get him completely checked out for worms and/or bladder infections. And ask the vet about the situation. At ten, he may be having problems knowing when he has to go. Ten is pretty old for a lab. Is someone home with...

Muslimah @Muslimah (811) • United States 21 Jan 07

If not why? Did you use to like for your parents to read to you before you go to bed?

Lilhawkins8 I read to my 9 yr old daughter nearly every night. She loves books about dragons, especially if there's a girl in the book. We homeschool, so we read in the daytime too if we feel like it. Even though she can read on her own, she loves to be read to. I think...

Lilhawkins8 I think the best advice anyone can take is to just work on loving your baby and bonding with him or her. Look at one of the attachment parenting sites for a lot of information on how to raise a happy, healthy child. Take it slow and don't worry about whether...

Do you spank your kids?

sunshinecup @sunshinecup (7871) 16 Dec 06

Do use spanking as a form of correction? If so, do you feel you are causing your children any long term damage mentally? If so, what form of correction do you use and do you ever feel spanking is appropriate?

Lilhawkins8 I don't spank my kids and I don't use timeouts or taking things away. We're unschoolers and practice attachment parenting and try to treat our kids with the same respect with which we treat our friends and adult family. That's not to say that we're not in...

WebMann @WebMann (4731) • Canada 29 Dec 06

Back when I was 16 or 17 I knew this long haired hippy guy that sang and played guitar. He sang these songs that I really liked by some guy named John Prine. It wasn't until a few years later that I actually heard a John Prine...

Lilhawkins8 I don't live in Canada, but almost. I saw JP here in Maine quite a few years ago and it was one of the best performances I've ever seen. I've been a fan ever since I picked up his first LP over thirty years ago. His words are sad, funny, catchy and sometimes...
