| Article Title :: I'm a Mom, She's a Mom: Being an Adult with Your Parents |
| |
| On one of her quarterly visits to see her grandson, my three-year-old
son, my mother ignores the available front seat of the car, crowds into
the back next to the car seat and promptly unwraps a lollipop. Feeling
the tension rising, I recall the numerous conversations where I so
proudly tell my mother how I keep sugar away from my son. “Mom, what
are you doing? Haven’t you heard a word I said?” And so it starts. The
struggle of being an adult with my parent.So much is written today about taking care of our parents as they age.
Monitoring medical care, determining living arrangements and providing
emotional support are the new roles that we have taken on to help (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Are You Frustrated With Public Schools? |
| |
| Join a growing number of parents and teachers!Fact: Last year, our nation spent over $382 Billion on education. Over 99% was spent on developing "learning environments" - buildings, books, science labs, teachers, sports programs, etc. The other part of the equation – what children can do for their education - is almost entirely overlooked.As concerned adults our focus must be on the other side of the equation – getting children to take more ownership of their education. We must give them the tools to “step up to the plate” and take positive action on their education?The key is goal setting! But, wait a minute.

| Article Title :: The Safest Stuffed Toys for the Kids on your Gift List |
| |
| Although it's hard to say when the first stuffed dogs appeared, I would guess that it was soon after dogs were domesticated. We do know that as long as there have been children, there have been dolls, rattles, miniature weapons, and hand-made animals. Anthropologists have found evidence of toys dating back to the earliest records of human life.Play is universal and cross-cultural. Though it may vary among cultures and generations, it's clearly instinctive and a key part of our development. A child's play is his way of learning about himself and his world. Play opens the door to a child's imagination. Some of our fondest memories from childhood are recollections of time spent play (read full article) |
