"So where do you get your ethics then?"

DanielMarvoloRiddle @DanielMarvoloRiddle (331) • United States 14 Feb 07

CNN thought it would be a great idea last week to run a piece on Atheists being discriminated against--something that certainly happens, especially here in a state that has been described politically as "somewhere to the right of...

princesszee Excellent points! I am glad I missed the CNN piece because it just would have teed me off. But I appreciate your points. Thank you.

princesszee Great question! I go through phases, right now I am really into Sujata Massey. Her books about Rei Shimura are so interesting and detailed.

Temperance Brennan series by Kathy Reichs

smartie1685 @smartie1685 (450) • United States 13 Feb 07

Has anyone read this series that spawned the tv show Bones? If you have is it as good as the tv series. I just ordered the first 4 books from Amazon so hopefully it is. :) But I was just wondering if anyone else had read it, if...

princesszee Actually, I love the books so much I could not get into the series - her life is very different in the books. But I think if you really like her character (and a good mystery) then you will like the books. Enjoy!

Teaching the alphabet

nangkasuy @nangkasuy (83) • Philippines 12 Feb 07

My son just refuses to learn the alphabet. He learned opposites, colors and association quite early as well as counting, identification and animal sounds. He sings the alphabet song and other children songs but whenever I try to...

princesszee I've taught preschool through high school and I really wouldn't be worried about a three year old not being interested in the alphabet. Don't push him - the more stressed you are about it the more resistant he will be to learning. That said, you could do some...

When is enough enough?

schoolteacher15 @schoolteacher15 (15) • United States 12 Feb 07

I have been in this relationship for almost 2 years. In our 2 years, he has done what I call cheating. He has several ads on the internet, he talks on chatlines, and I have found several text messages on his phone that were to...

princesszee It sounds like you already know that answer. Don't let him disrespect you anymore. If he won't leave, you have two choices: move out yourself or move him out. If you can leave, get some friends together while he's at work or wherever and take your stuff and...

stratz @stratz (100) • Canada 12 Feb 07

My girlfriend is taking the teaching course at UNI to become a teacher and now she wants to quit. She says it is making her depressed and she hates going to school and doesn't want anything to do with the program. We had the...

princesszee Teaching is hard enough for people who passionate about it, if she's already lost that there's no point in bothering anymore. I mean, is it the program or teaching that's bothering her? If it's just the program, she should stick it out. But if she's not...

Who is your favorite character on the show?

ugachaka @ugachaka (297) • United States 10 Jan 07

Hot girls aside, my favorite character became Riggins once he got his act together and committed himself to the team. He only did it to be with Lyla and he's slipped a couple times since then, but he's one of the true tough guys...

princesszee Oh my Gosh, I can't believe this is real. Or, rather, I don't want to believe this is real. How terribly sad that someone actually thought this letter was appropriate. I would have been in that principal's office the next morning, let me tell you.

Is it right to leave a baby crying for an hour and a half??

Bizziebod @Bizziebod (3497) 7 Feb 07

I'm really cheesed off today! I live in a flat and my downstairs neighbour has a small one year old baby. A few weeks ago she knocked on the door and said she was going to try and get the baby to sleep in his own room and said...

princesszee Before I had my son, I would have said there was something wrong with the poor baby - my daughter never cried that long. But my son did when he was learning how to go to sleep on his own (even though we did all the same things to teach him to self comfort that...

What do you do when your terrible 2 has a meltdown in public??

mom2adopted @mom2adopted (56) • United States 12 Feb 07

Last week we were in Walmart. They were giving cookie samples so I let my 2 year old have a peanut butter cookie, her favorite. After she finished it, I tried to clean her hands and face, but she was not having any of that. She...

princesszee I probably would have used a snack in the diaper bag instead of buying the cookies, but we're on a tight budget. I would have started by letting her clean herself up, though - it's so fun for her to use the wipes that she forgets about more cookies.
