| Article Title :: Beyond flash card : how to do the infant visual stimulation in
fun and creative ways. |
| |
|
Babies learn about the environment surrounding them through
five senses: vision, hearing, touching, smelling and tasting. Of
those five senses, vision is the least developed sense a baby
has at birth.
Therefore, it is important for parents to help their babies to
‘perfect’ their vision during the first few months of their
baby’s life.
Babies who do not receive adequate visual stimulation may never
get good vision. Or they may develop it slowly. In contrast,
babies who are stimulated develop good vision faster. Having a
good vision early is important since this will put the baby in a
competitive edge. Why ? Because vision provides the baseline of
other area of development. It enhan (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Suicide Survivor |
| |
|
My father’s senseless death in 2001 left my life in
shambles. Finding the strength and dignity to go on for myself
and my children proved to be the most difficult feat ever.
Suicide is a nightmare for survivors of loved ones. Death in
itself is hard to cope with but when someone you love
intentionally takes their life, this pain is somehow multiplied
many times over. Your mind races with unanswered questions and
your heart pounds in shock – then it hits you. They are GONE,
taken from this earth by their own actions, and there is nothing
you can do to get them back.
Most people struggle with the ultimate unanswered question – WHY?
Why would they do this? Why didn’t I hel (read full article) |

| |
|
Having gone through a bankruptcy 7 years ago, I'm still feeling
the shockwaves of that fateful event in the form of higher
interests rates when I apply for loans, and living with the
whole stigma that bankruptcy places on you.
It was 1990. I was a freshman in college. Walking through
campus, I'd be bombarded with credit card offers on a daily
basis. One day I though, "why not?" I got my first credit card.
$500 to do what I want, who can beat that? The problem was, that
it was so easy to apply for credit cards I ended up applying for
all of them, or so it seemed. Actually, I had at least 5, and
soon enough, they were all maxed out.
And then I bought a car, which only added to my mountin (read full article) |
