I need to vent before I blow a gasket. Really he had been picked on for the last 2 years for not being LDS, he had been accused of things that he did not do, and it was proven that he did not do it ,but another kid lied about it, he had on going night mares because of being told he was evil because he drank coffee or his mom wore a shirt with a tiny cross on it . It was this past year that he st

This happened every Sunday when I used to waitress. One group used to come in with a bunch of kids, ask for separate checks be rude then 5 checks would never get paid. It was so bad nobody would take them, except for me and one other girl. Management would do nothing. One Sunday the group's head Pain, asked why nobody would wait on them. I nicely told her, well your group is rude and some of the

Funny how the Simpsons can make someone feel normal, my 9yrold watched it tonight and it sunk in that he is just fine, its the jerks at school who either wont play with him,lie about him(the girl was caught in the lie) or tell him he is going to hell because he is Not Mormon or Baptized) Thank you The Simpsons!

Part of me feels bad, and part of me wants to slap some sense into some people. We are making it work where we are at now due to 2 wonderful neighbors and well what else are you going to do. We also finely decided to home school so the stupid crud going on at school will be over with( wish me luck on this ).

Sorry that is just a bunch of bull, Dh has gotten huge, and I would never think of cheating on him. I worry about his weight for his health but it would never ever make me cheat( I have kept myself up, but its for me not him)

Poor boy, I cant imagine what he and his mother went through. Its hard enough for bulling to happen in a place where you can at least be there for your child. Good for him for not putting up with it and leaving the situation.

Anagrammy, I think your on to something, on another city info site, an LDS lady was jokingly talking about how the new mall was exactly that. The whole post kind of struck me as odd, she had this elaborate joke plan, she talked of the different levels and who would go in them. We went to said mall this past summer, when my parents visited, the only really cool thing was the splash pad.

As an ex Albuquerque dweller its a great place to be. New Mexico is a beautiful state and the people are awesome. The thing I love most about New Mexico is that it embraces the quirks it has. If you can do it then go it really is a cool place.

Sorry if my posts are a hard to read, I am just really ticked off right now.I need to vent, so I can be ticked off but grounded at the meeting. The whole thing started off with pictures then ended up with lying teacher or little girl.

I have a meeting in the morning with the school. Found out that DS bent a paper clip into a triangle and poked holes in his paper, the teacher then told me, that he poked a girl with it. I went to school with him today to make sure he said he was sorry even if he did it by accident he had to say he was sorry(I told him I know you would not do this on purpose, and from now on no bending of papercl

Thank you, no he is not drawing anything that is singling anyone out. I thought it was normal, however everyone was very concerned about it. I even asked to see his file because I wanted to see if he has had any behavioral issues that I was not aware about.

I really need info on this, I think it may be normal, but the school my son attends tells me he has a problem. I have seen the drawings, and they are not bad just stuff I remember boys drawing when I was growing up. It is getting so bad at my sons school that I think I am either nuts or they are. I just need some info so I can better help my son. Thank you

Funny and sad at the same time, my Sister in law is in a live in facility. She was telling me how much she hates the Arts and Crafts activities they do. I told her yeah, I never really enjoyed it either and it seemed to be a big thing in Utah. She looked at me and said well there just nuts, its so stupid to sit and glue junk together. Its sad to go visit and see the toll the meds take on her body

To the poster, who said the boy should not get his award. I say Bull, he deserves, it he worked for it, and he is being true to himself. IMHO God is proud of this young man who chooses to be himself. Why is it so important to be straight and a believer to be in Scouts, not very God like to spread the hurt and the hate. T

Yes in my twenties it was the crud decade to put it mildly, I kind of forced myself to work through it. I wish I had asked for more help though.

Some homes in my area have been flooded, we want help out, however if we make a money donation will the family have to pay tithing on it. Would it be better for us to go out and purchess what they need so they will not have to pay tithing on that item
