I'm a teacher. I say NO HOMEWORK! Sometimes a kid can't get help from a parent, sometimes kids have other responsibilities, sometimes the kid's parents may not speak English, or...too often...a kid ALREADY KNOWS how to do it, so the homework is a waste of time! Some exceptions: Foreign...

Um, a court finds you guilty. Not a police officer. So you can get arrested for something and it can be dropped later.

Obama has already released it. More than once. So maybe Hawaii should ask the Arizona Secretary of State for his birth certificate.

Sure. He gets his Wii taken away or his computer or some such. I don't know if it "works", but it's my primary method of parenting punishment. I mean, I don't hit him, so I have to have a Nuclear Option somewhere. :) If he does something that's Really Out of Line, he loses all electronics...

Boy do I ever remember that thread. :D

How am I 'using' anyone if I'm up front and honest about it? There's no deceit here.

It doesn't mean it's affordable. Plus...it hasn't gone into effect.

Probably isn't going to be served well elsewhere, either. If she were at a school for the Deaf, she'd probably qualify to get a para for her to be there at all times. The state pays for that.

It's likely that the deaf autistic girl would suffer in a non-deaf setting. :/ I worked with autistic kids in a supposed 'awesome' school. Dude, suckage. One of the kids (not autistic, but MR) was deaf and his mom hated the school so much she fought to have him pulled out.

Taking advantage? I think my DAD takes advantage of women. How about you taking advantage of the government? Maybe if I were deaf enough I could be like you and get $$$ and travel to Europe on the taxpayer's dollar... Thank you. XO. <3 I don't qualify. I have epilepsy. I can't get...

double post sorry

I have been, but I don't have any Prada. Do you want to buy my shoes? I give you AD special, ok? My son has a scholarship...as for my dad, it would be NICE if he wanted to give me loads of cash cause I batted my eyelashes, but he doesn't do that. I have to pay for my own stuff around here...

I tried. :/ *sigh* If I have to. This is why you get married to be nice to a friend...not for love. ;)
