"...and for luncheon today, I shall require one peanut, two thin slices of tomato and a thimble of mac & cheese - hold the cheese."

Our school refuses her crappy lunches - bravo to them. - Busybusy

Instead, they offer farm fresh to table foods. Nutritious and filling.

Now what could one possibly dislike about your post? - Nutritious and filling. (sm)

Oh, I get it. You were dissing the busybodyhornineveryone's business so-called first lady. Notice I didn't capitalize it.

I know - funny how a post touting good nutrition for kids could be disliked - Busybusy

I would have thought ensuring good nutrition for children would be far more important. Guess not.

I Am Starving All The TimeJun 02, 2011
I literally can eat a decent meal, and within 5 minutes I am hungry again. This is getting to be ridiculous, and the weight gain is not funny either.  Any suggestions on a natural or over-the-counter appetite suppressant that works?  ...

How Did This Country Turn Into A Country Without Borders? Reagan And Bush Debate 1980Jul 13, 2015
We could go on pretending that the history of the United States and everything bad came into existence on January 20, 2009, when Obama took the oath of office, thereby nullifying everything that had theretofore happened in American history before Obama became president... OR.... novel idea, we could watch, listen, and learn from history and actual facts. The Governor of California, Ronald Reagan, believed in an open door policy in North America and free trade with unwavering support. htt ...

Should You Lie To Your Children?Sep 02, 2016
I just recently found out my ex-husband lost his house because he hasn't paid the taxes on it for four years.  He is an alcoholic, doesn't work, and is bipolar as well.  He somehow manages to come up with money to buy his alcohol, but won't get a job to pay his bills or taxes.  He's a veteran and gets charity organizations to pay his utilities.  He doesn't even own a car that runs anymore.  He's just really pathetic.  I divorced him for ...

Perfection From Our ChildrenFeb 18, 2012
Most people are worried when they're kids are "out of control." Okay, that's a concern.  What about when they are walking around tryiing to be perfect for parents' with ridiculous expectations?  A note below sparked the thought. A kid who is doing competitive gymnastics (a horror in my mind), plus horseback riding, dancing, singing in a chorus, on and on is not being a kid. When would there be time for THAT?   Gymnastics, in my opinion, is a horror. Little perfec ...

Are Anybody Else's Grown Children (30 Y/o)Feb 20, 2011
I have two grown sons and I think the daughter-in-laws have a good deal to do with it, but they are mad at me all the time.  One sends me nasty E-mails to which I do not respond at all.  The other is more passive-aggressive (such as unfriended me on Facebook and didn't wish me Happy Anniversary, although sent a text TO MY HUSBAND). I try to walk a very tight line because they use my grandchildren as weapons, and I won't get to see them.  I never criticize their actions; ...

Divorce And What It Does To ChildrenOct 29, 2010
My boyfriend has 5 children.  He was married to his former wife for 14 years.  They have been divorced for 1 year now; separated for 3, and have 5 children together ranging from almost 13 years old to 5 years old.  He had custody of them in the beginning because she abandoned them (left the state with another man)....then she was somehow able to get custody back. Anyway that really isn't the issue. The youngest (5-year-old) has been potty trained since he was 3.  He rea ...

Psychic ChildrenOct 19, 2010
I need some input about something that my 3 y/o grandson has been saying.  He has been saying that the "shadow man" comes out of his roof and says bad things to him.  He tells him to go away and he does and he goes back to sleep.  That is only at his house.  He does not seem scared, he says "he makes me mad".  On the anniversary of my father's death, I took him with me to place flowers at the grave.  He was talking to the air, having a conversation with "a man ...

Please Pray For My Children, SmAug 04, 2010

Children And DivorceApr 04, 2011
Anybody with a minute, would appreciate your prayers.  My son has been fighting for custody of his children from their meth-addicted mother.  She is now homeless, and he is getting the children full-time instead of joint custody.  His current wife just up and tells him she wants a divorce; doesn't want to raise his children by his other marriage.  He works a week out of town and then is home a week.  He is scheduled to leave for work tomorrow.  My husband and I ...

Babysitting 4 Children/$$Oct 07, 2015
I have posted before about babysitting 4 children a few nights a week.  Upon hire, I was told I would get paid $35 a night (5 hours).  I have logged in 4 nights.  I have only gotten paid $75 so far - and that was after I pretty much had to beg for it. I really enjoy the kids, they are great and I have a lot of fun.  How do I address this issue?  My daughter (21 YO) helped me type up a babysitting log in my Excel program, keeping track of dates, charges and pay.&nb ...

Something I Really Do Not Understand About Children.Nov 23, 2015
Why?   How can people stand to sit there and listen to their kid scream constantly, intermittently every few seconds,  nonstop, for over an hour,  let alone 10-15-20 minutes or so? This one next door will scream at him in return  "STOP" and he keeps it up, then she screams again,  he keeps it up, and so on.   This goes on the better part of a day sometimes. This baby is about 2 years old,  dysfunctional family where the mother and father both scream ...

Children Of Domestic Abuse Dec 18, 2012
I am extremely close with some little girls, ages 8 and 10 and their family also. I could not love these children more. Long story short, they moved away out of state and in the last few days their father was arrested for domestic abuse against the mother. He drew the children into the fight, called the mother bad names in front of the children and even told the 10 year old girl if she stayed around her mother then she would be the same and even said the b… word to the child.

How Much Do You Spend On Your Children For Christmas?Dec 21, 2012
I know the whole, "better to give than receive" and "Children should know the real meaning of Christmas" etc., I was just wondering with the prices of items today how much does a personal typically spend on their children for Christmas?  My husband always complains and says I spend too much on ours and I tried to cut back this year, but still ended up spending around $1500 on two children, ages 9 and 12 and really it looks like they are having a very small Christmas.  I am not complain ...

Obama's Use Of Children In Signing His EOsJan 26, 2013
Diana West: Love this woman's columns. Her eyes are wide open to what goes on in D.C.   Not one of the 23 executive orders that President Obama signed -- flanked by schoolchildren whom none of us want to see murdered and before an audience that included relatives of murdered schoolchildren -- would have prevented the massacre at Sandy Hook.   Did the main idea of the sentence above come through -- that the president's latest orders would not have stopped the heavily armed ...

Expired Children Drinks Jul 01, 2013
This weekend at a fireworks celebration in our town someone donated drinks to the children. You know those little flavored plastic bottles, maybe 6 inches tall. Some had a plastic cap that you pullled and it unraveled and came off, some had tin foil.  One child was heard to say "Hey there must have been some paper in my drink".  He evidently swallowed something.  Another person looked at the container and it had clearly printed an expiration date of 2009 on it and when inspected s ...

Seattle Children's Hospital - See MsgNov 05, 2013
Seattle Children’s Hospital ranks No. 11 on the U.S. News & World Report best pediatric hospital list. When Obamacare rolled out, the hospital found itself with just two out of seven insurance companies on Washington’s exchange. Seattle Children’s is the only pediatric hospital in King County, and offers keys services, such as cancer care, which are not available anywhere else in the region. So if you sign up for Obamacare, good luck surviving. Fortunately, that represents ...

Immigration Of Children From GuatemalaNov 23, 2014
This is a complicated issue.  Previously the government in Guatemala leased land to the small farmers who were able to support their families on the leased land.  Then Cargill and other mega corporations leased the land from the government displacing thousands of small farmers.  Not enough jobs on those mega plantations for all, not to mention cutting down the forests and displacing the people there.  On top of that, there is a drought.  So, people in desperation send th ...

Need To Tell My Grown Children About Medical IssuesOct 29, 2009
I have always considered myself in excellent health especially with all the health issues I type on each and every day with people younger or near my age. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in the late 80s and the doctor asked me about anyone in my family who had it, usually he said runs in the females and told me to let any daughters I might have the information. I went back to an older aunt and she could think of no one in the family with this. I since have been diagnosed with a kidney diseas ...
