VickiB My favorite animal would actually be the snow leopard. This animal is beautiful, elegant, and extremely intelligent. The leopard is also very fast and efficient, a good mother, and in the feline family. I love cats!!

VickiB If you had asked me this maybe a year ago, I might have said that I would have never trusted this guy I knew when I was 16. Two weeks before my 17th birthday, he took advantage of me at his home. I knew him for 2 years total before that night, and I never...

What car would you STEAL (if you didn't get caught)

If you could STEAL any car and no one would ever know what car would you steal??

VickiB See, the problem with that is even though you say I wouldn't get caught, I would still have a guilty conscious and be looking over my shoulder constantly. However, if I could just "have" a car legally...I would probably get a Lotus. My boss has one, and it's...

Any tips on teeth cleaning?

Sasselle @Sasselle (698) • Australia 30 Jan 07

My 3 year old has just moved back into "biting" his toothbrush instead of using it properly - hence we are going through a toothbrush a week as they are dying as soon as he's used it the first time. Does anyone have any tips on...

Children and Technology

biwasaki @biwasaki (1745) • United States 31 Jan 07

My daughter is four years old and has been asking for an iPod and Nintendo DS (like her older siblings have). Do you think that technology these days is helping or hurting our children? Why do you believe this?

Helping the poor

sigma77 @sigma77 (5383) • United States 30 Jan 07

Lets say I am rich and that I wanted to help the poor. I want to help 1 million people or families. I would give them each $1,000 a month for 12 months for the next 3 years. That comes to a total of $3.6 billion. Do you...

VickiB Just like several other people have said, there is a deeper root to the yelling. She doesn't want to hurt the children, and yet she is obviously very frustrated. It is true, yelling is a form of abuse if done too often. It is most likely due to feeling...
