    So scary for that family on the boat in the Pacific

    Hi, Nice to meet you. I NEVER had doubt even one a monthly basis when my kids were younger, that was the EASY time. Teenagers, yes I sometime shave doubts but very little. Also you pointed out in an earlier post that there were people who lived with no communication in Utah and some...

    Dear Patient,

    This is very true. Now lets talk about how patients don't want to wait, or they think that Dr's over schedule, yet these are the same people who cant understand why it can take a month to get an appointment with a Dr. YOu can't have it both ways.. No one wants to wait, but if you need a Dr...

    Craziest table mates you have had.

    WE have been on 2 cruises, both with table mates. I WILL NOT be doing this again. I love to socialize, but on my terms and with you I wan to socialize with. We have a very active family all year, we rarely get to sit down together. I don't want to share this time with anyone else.

    Driving annoyances

    Well sure, I mean if both lanes are full then this really doesn't apply. We have those times here as well. I am going on the case where both lanes are open, and the person is in the left hand lane going the exact of under the speed limit and just refuses to get over. I dont flash anyone, but...

    Driving annoyances

    The left hand lane is for passing, you need to get out of it unless your are passing someone. I repeat, the left hand lane IS for going around someone, it isn't yours to do with as you please

    Parents of collage kids, how important is a HS foreign language?

    Not sure about colleges around here, but it must be a requirement. My kid's high school (public school) requires it for graduation from high school.

    Want to be refunded even though teacher said no refunds?

    Let me be more specific< although in rereading my response I think I was pretty clear about my issues with the teacher. I have no problem with the teacher grilling the father when he came to pick her up. However, it is NONE of her business as to how often he shows up. Sorry if I didn't make...

    Want to be refunded even though teacher said no refunds?

    I have to laugh at the responses that state the son should show up more to his daughters class. In this world of 2 working parent households, I see more and more grandparents taking over these types of duties. In fact I have heard parents state that that is what is great about grandparents...

    OT but need opinions of other moms

    Not the same situation as the OP explained. The parents knew that they couldn't afford an X Box, and to give him a gift in that box was beyond tacky and if my kid even tried to do that, I would give him a very quick and not very pleasant lesson on having feelings and manners. It was rude and...

    I will only buy girl scout cookies...

    I would also much prefer to give a donation, those cookies taste like CRAP. I don't know what they did but when I was a girl scout they were actually edible, unlike now.

    Overcrowded classes - can they force her out?

    Like I said there maybe a few electives that are a semester only, but my kids haven't had these in HS. And funny you should mention "biology" This is the the class that the OP is talking about and yet people are saying that changing teachers is normal for their area. I would find this to be...

    Overcrowded classes - can they force her out?

    I have never dealt with a school that has, and I have never heard of changing teachers after the semester, it just isn't done where we live.

    Overcrowded classes - can they force her out?

    We have also NEVER changed teachers at semester break. There are some classes in middle school that only last a semester but there is no such thing as changing teachers for the same class, at least not around here, it just isn't done.

    Overcrowded classes - can they force her out?

    I don't know where you live, but trust me, just because a teacher is "teaching" the class, means nothing. Sorry but I don't put blind trust in teachers, and if my kid is in a class that he or she is succeeding in,then I handle the situation at this age. There are too many crappy teachers out...

    Minnesota Governor cancels all public schools on Monday

    Thanks, I will stay inside. Luckily it won't last. We have a pretty kick butt gas heater and fireplace and this house is crazy insulated so I think for just a day or 2 it will be ok. Thank God for hot flashes, they may come in handy for this time of year. Seriously, I know 5 degrees is...

    3 times today, people ahead of me, no cash, debit card declined

    around here they are telling people that it is best to go inside. We are having a real problem with "card readers" being installed at gas pumps. People are getting ripped off. It happened to us 2 times 3 years ago. I refuse to pay at the pump now.

    Blocked Ear..

    My exact experience. I was in sever pain though. When the Dr looked in my ear she gasped and said OH MY, you have a SEVER ear infection, that plugged up feeling you have is your ear drum and it is about to burst. I wasn't in pain at first, it just felt like a stopped up ear and I didn't...

    If you still have your Christmas lights up and on outside

    I guess that we are the type that everyone here doesn't like. lol. I take mine down anywhere from 1-2 days after Christmas. I put mine up starting on Thanksgiving and I enjoy them right up until the day after Christmas. A few here have mentioned finally being able to relas and enjoy them...
