    Bullying: A Thread for Educators

    Well, I have taught preschool for a very long time. I see bullying starting so early now. 4 year olds trying to scare their peers and make them cry. At such a young age, I make them look at the childs face, ask them how that child is feeling(scared, sad). I try to explain that it doesn't...

    Bank of America dropping overdraft fee!

    They already have. Two days ago I got a bill for almost $500, for charges and late fees from 2008 mortgage payments. Never was brought to my attention before this, always paid my late fees. I asked them to print out my payment history and send it to me so I can check it out. THe girl I spoke...

    4937 Hopespring Dr Goes into Foreclosure

    I'm surprised they haven't opened the C.M.A. museum . Charge people to go thru the house and see how much they "loved and cared " for both Casey and Caylee. Look at tall the toys and pictures. Everything is perfect so Casey couldn't have done what they say she did. In this sick world I bet...

    Should The Who (and Pete Townsend) be allowed to perform at the Super Bowl

    I thought they did well. They looked better than some other bands their age. I thought I heard that Townsend is quite hard of hearing now, I don't know if it's true or rumor, but anyway, I enjoyed it.

    Tiny toy gun nearly gets boy suspended

    When my son was in 2nd grade, a child in his class got expelled for 3 months for bringing a knife to school.(We were not notified and did not know anything about it.) The child came back to class in January, and for some reason, picked up my son and threw him over a desk. My son was not sent to...

    Tiny toy gun nearly gets boy suspended

    That is true. And we've all seen the news stories where signs were missed or ignored. And we have seen stories where there were no signs. That is why there are variables. If this child is a routine trouble maker, if this child has been told not to bring guns, or toys or weapons before, if...

    Tiny toy gun nearly gets boy suspended

    I just think that now when people are given a list of rules, for some reason it stops them from thinking on their own. I believe in no tolerance /no weapons policies, but people really need to use their brains. There are many variables to be considered. I know we don't know all the details...

    Tiny toy gun nearly gets boy suspended

    I definately agree that she has no grounds to sue, The whole thing should have been handled differently. I guess no common sense on both sides.

    Tiny toy gun nearly gets boy suspended

    I have to agree with Mom on this one. Common sense has gone out the window. He should have been asked to put it away, and told not to bring it again. I have a no weapons policy in my daycare. If kids bring inappropriate things, I take them, and give them back to the parent and ask them...

    Death Penalty Vs Life in Prison and Why

    When I was little, my parents told me when you go to jail, you get bread and water to eat, no TV, no friends to talk to , NOTHING. This terrified me. Knowing that KC will have the opportunity to go to school, read magazines all day , listen to the radio, and even eat snacks makes me so mad...
