I just watched a video on the yahoo front page thing about a young kid maybe 6 years old, being suspended from school because his hair was to long. The parents didn't want to cut it because the boy has beautiful hair and likes his...

jeanene72 Also, I must say, school uniforms have been PROVEN over and over again to lower violence in schools. So these kinds of rules are not harmful, they really are for the good of the children.

jeanene72 I see your point, and congrats on your niece. As a parent and teacher, I also must say, however, that children need to learn at a young age that there are some rules one must follow in order to get along and be happy with your parents, school, friends, etc....

jeanene72 If you don't like a school's uniforms, change schools. And a uniform is not 24/7, just while you are in school. If you don't want to cut your hair, follow the rule and braid it. What's the deal? Does EVERYTHING have to be your way? The world has rules or else...

My best friend is going to get married on 10 February which is Wednesday. Therefore, i need to take long leave if i attend her wedding. Furthermore, my work place is far away from the wedding location and i need 8 hours of...

jeanene72 Tell her the truth. Not about your own wedding, yet. But the truth is, you said you don't have enough time off work to come to her wedding. She should not be upset at you for that, if you tell the truth. It's a fact of life that we all have to work and we only...

I live next door to the noisiest neighbors on the planet. I'm pretty sure that you have a situation out there that you might disagree with me on this, believing that your neighbors are noisier; but, I am pretty convinced. They...

jeanene72 It does sound a bit extreme, the behavior extreme, especially the late hours. And during the day, too? Kids old enough to bounce on a trampoline are old enough to be in school. Are you sure this lady (or whoever it is) is not running a day care out of her...

Dont you just hate when there are more than 200+ channels to choose from but not one of them is showing anything you want to watch? Well join the club. There is nothing more boring than a screwed up economy where people dont have...

jeanene72 I forgot to say, I only signed up for satellite TV because I knew I was going to have major back surgery and would be bedridden and homebound for a couple of months, alone with no one to talk to. So, that was kind of a necessity to keep me from going nuts at...

jeanene72 As soon as my contract is up, I am cancelling my Dish satellite programming. I have just the basic package, because all I really want is local channels, so that I can get the news, weather, etc. Most everything else I have access to at this lowest rate is...

I am really casual, and I don't need any fancy clothing to show off anything. I could get a sweater; jean or jacket from walmart, or old navy. Not necessarily to be Levi's, Gap, or Abercrombie, or Hollister, etc..... I am...

jeanene72 I do not buy brand names because of its brand name. This is because I have found that once the brand name has captured a large market, its quality goes down and prices go up. I buy products that have the features I want, that are reasonably priced for what I...

Please help to figure out what I did so wrong with my sister yesterday, that she has not talked to me for almost two days. This is what happened: About two months ago my mother asked if I would like to volunteer for Santa's Toy...

jeanene72 No, you didn't do anything wrong. You kept her informed and were non-committal, of course, because you were doing A GOOD DEED. She just didn't get her way. Iknow people like that, my daughter is one of them. Good natured usually, but when she wants you to be...

Does anyone else have to live with family or friends? In the last four years, our family has been bounced from place to place. I feel that none of the places we've lived have been good for our family. No one seems to realize that...

jeanene72 How would you feel if you were on the giving end, if it was YOUR home and your friends or family needed to come live with YOU. Wouldn't you expect them to pitch in with housework, etc.? No one gets a free ride, it is only fair for them to make up for their...

You just bought a new computer with the new version. There is still the old one standing on your desk. What will you do with it?

jeanene72 I would recommend you either turn it in to a computer repair shop, they might give you a little for parts, OR find a charity that can recycle your old computer for someone less fortunate (if it still works), OR give it yourself to someone less fortunate. Check...

I have often noticed that my kitchen stays cooler then the rest of the house, unless I am cooking in there. Does the hard floor create cooler temperatures? Would a rug keep the room warmer or would it just feel warmer? Would it...

jeanene72 I recently enclosed a back porch,which, of course, was concrete. I them put ceramic tile over that. The room, which I designed as a sunroom, has 7 windows. Although the room is insulated top and sides, it is still hard to feel comfortable in here. There is no...
