    How did you do it? I have a friend who I find very draining but am loath to hurt her by a complete cut off.

    Our oldest son spoke very early too. Mum wanted me to have him join Mensa, which we didn't do. Now he is 21, and a very nice young man, but he still will argue a point that is clearly wrong, but he will not back down. My hubby tells me not to bother, but I will not back down when I know...

    We are at the 50 hour mark with our son who turns 18 soon. He could have been driving as a learner for two years, but didn't bother getting his learner permit until May 2009.

    Maybe the local primary should try to get a stall. Half way through this year they announced no more photocopying would be done as they could not afford it any more. My friend is going to march up to the school and ask for her ream of donated A4 copy paper back :D.

    I think you meant to type "crawling" where you have typed "walking" above. My youngest is an average student, but I believe if this teacher had not picked up on his trouble copying things from the board, he could have slipped through the cracks. When kids cannot keep up for whatever reason...

    Our youngest just stood up and walked at ten months. We didn't realise the importance at the time of babies having some time crawling. The crossing over of the mid line of the body whilst crawling assists the synapses to form and make connections from one side of the brain to the other (or...
