My friend has been throwing up since saturday. She can't even keep water down so I'm staying far away from her! It must be terrible to have a vomiting bug like that. How many of you have had the vomiting bug? What was your...

Remembering your childhood...

Dolcerina @Dolcerina (3376) • Hungary 27 Oct 07

What is the thing you missed, or you were sad because of? If you could go back in time to that child you were, what would you give him/her? Should you help him/her in something?

bindy1234 Love, a decent family and understanding. But as to whether I should, possibly not, as I wouldn't be as strong as I am today. I think I turned out OK - but maybe with a decent family behind me it could have been easier. Hmmmm tough question. - undecided on the...

Comforting the Grieving:What to say and what not to say?

Nic @academic2 (7000) • Uganda 27 Oct 07

Are you the kind of person who can rise up to your conscience and say both the good and the dirty things about your dead friend or relative? I was at a Burrial of some Anglican Bishop of my Church-He was a man who had reached...

grieving

bindy1234 I think being there and listening are the best ways to comfort the grieving, as I don't believe there are words that will ever put them at ease. As for what you can say at a burial - there is a time and a place and that wasn't it. A bit of respect for the dead...

bindy1234 Personally i've always loved the saying "Children Are A Privilege Not A Right". I have been privileged enough to have four, two of each and they are the best. Nobody else can make me smile as easily or love as easily. The unconditional love is the ultimate...

bindy1234 yes we should all have the right to die with dignity. I believe that if you are a terminal patient, in pain and with no great hope for the future then you should be able to. It would be on your terms, your way. You would get to say goodbye to your loved ones...

best years in life

bagumbayan @bagumbayan (2705) • Philippines 21 Sep 07

It is a saying that life begins at 40. To me it is for those who are 40 and above, just to say that they are still young. For me there is no bearing on whether one is young or old, the best is that he can carry his age, he can do...

Anyone else tired of family members giving opinions on how to raise your child?

tlb0822 @tlb0822 (1410) • United States 25 Oct 07

Our first child is due on January 1st, and already everyone seems to have their own opinion on how to raise our child. From what color the nursery to be, to the type of diapers we will put on our child. How do you politely tell...
