Helping or hovering? When 'helicopter parenting' backfires
Sun May 26, 2013
- Thankfully,I stopped reaing books on parenting and just flew by the seat of my pants. I went to every conference, a lot of PTAS meetings (not all, let's face it...they are pretty boring), SAC metings, school board meetings, insisted upon phone numbers of friends, no pagers (back in the day), no priv …
Jeanne Cooper, longtime 'Young and the Restless' star, dies at 84
Wed May 8, 2013
- What a great character! Both in life and death. I seldom watched that show but, when I did, I always looked for Jeanne Cooper because she had the most substance. A guilding light (if you will) and that show will never be the same without our Katherin. RIP...and my profound sympathy for and …

Today's teens more materialistic, less likely to work hard, study says
Thu May 2, 2013
- Sad but true. I have worked at a high school for almost 20 years. The kids aren't so bad but their parents are awful! Poor baby this and poor baby that, not his fault, not my fault, not THAT bad, the teacher hates him, "he's just not a morning person" (yup...I got that), you don't understand, you'r …

- I applaude her. Having had a family member with bi-polar 1 I understand how difficult it is to control and, more often than not, he resisted treatment. I wish her and her family well.This is not an easy road.
What's next: The interrogation of the Boston bombing suspect
Sat Apr 20, 2013
- As an Bostian I have to say that I am seriously proud of my town and my state. I spent the 1st 18 years of my life right outside of Boston and I watched my high school buddies go from 12th grade to Hell in VN. We had a draft folks! It could happen to you. It is still surreal. Shades of a past I neve …
Pope Francis: Hypocrisy 'undermines Church's credibility'

- Ya think? Too little, too late. And I'm not talking about decades. I'm speaking about centuries.
Morning Joe poll: 60 percent of Americans want stricter gun laws
Wed Apr 3, 2013
- As flawed and/or biased as the poll may be I completely agree. And I do NOT want armed teachers in our classrooms! Put the money into better securing our campuses and security. Teachers have enough on their plates without having to be snipers too. Geeze!
Fear becoming a 'bag lady' someday? Many others do, too
Fri Mar 29, 2013
- Welcome to my club. I am 61. When I was 12 I marched myself down to city hall to get a work permit that my parents had to sign as I was still a child. I have worked and contributed to the system ever since. Last year I developed a heart disease (cardiomyopathy...it could happen to anyone, young or o …
Two teen girls charged for online threats against Steubenville rape victim
Mon Mar 18, 2013
- Having worked in the public system for 3 decades I feel comfortable saying that the problem lays at the doorstop of the hood and that mind set. Don't speak out of both sides of your mouth. You either embrace da hood...and all that comes with that...or you don't. Don't come running to me when you got …

Pregnancy pains that won't go away: What's your experience?
- I had my first at 18. I weighted 95 pounds going into the pregancy and I gained only 13 pounds. I would not recommend this. I was too young and too small. Plus, in the 60's no one ever suggested that smoking might result in a premmie. My daughter was in Pediatric Critical Care for a month and had s …
