gcvmom...hopefully since your girl is a easy child she won't give you the same trouble as my difficult child. I just know that puberty has been much worse for her than either of my boys. witz...that is a good idea on setting up a temporary one for myself to check to see if it will work and tweak it. Don't know...

gcvmom and lothlorien: I am certain she was logged on to her own account since I had made that mistake the first time of forgetting to log out of my account and into hers. The second time I let her on I made sure I logged her onto her own account. There are only two users on the computer, me and...

I thought I did click on OK at the bottom to save the settings, but perhaps I will make sure I check that again the next time. As for her missing the notification that she was about to be logged off, yes, that is possible she would miss it, however it didn't log her off when her time was up...

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong in setting it up so there are time limits for my daughter's use on the computer? I have had Windows Vista for a couple of years and just found out you can set time limits for usage. However, I set the amount of time she could be on...say from 1PM to 4PM...

We are lucky that difficult child never tore up her clothes, and I make her change after she gets home from school. If not, she would be in trouble this school year as there is not a penny to buy anything new for school. I am struggling to even come up with the required school supplies. Thankfully, difficult child...

I'm a coconut lover and would love the recipe. Congrats on lasting 3 hours and having a great visit. mistmouse

Martie, I am so thrilled to read such a positive update. Although not as great an update as yours, somewhere on here is my update about my daughter. It feels so good to be able to post the positives. mistmouse

Hi All...Many of you won't remember me, but some like Sue and Martie will definitely remember. Another school year has ended, at least for my difficult child. She is out four days early because of her grades and perfect attendance allowed her to take her finals early. Her MAP testing exempts her from...

I always preferred the Dolly Parton version as well. You are correct that it was in "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas". However, Dolly didn't write the song for that movie. In fact she wrote the song when she left the Porter Wagnor show because Porter had given her her start, and she had been...

I loved the video, but to set the record straight, this is not a Whitney Houston piece. Dolly Parton wrote and performed the song long before she allowed Whitney Houston to re-record it. Being a country music fan, it upsets me when people credit this song to Whitney Houston. Just my .02 cents...

It wasn't the thickness of the pad that was the problem as I had no problem finding ones that were very thin...the problem is in the length and width of them so that they are rubbing her inner thighs and are way up her behind. I didn't find any tampons for teens in any brand, but probably will...

Well, I thought there was a slender pad too, but didn't find any at Walmart. She used an Always pantyliner since I had nothing on hand as I haven't had periods in years, but she complained of that being too long and "up her butt". Sue, yes it is amazing how time has flown. I was going to PM...

and I need help with who makes products such as pads that are for young teens. I went to the store today and looked, but I thought at least one of the major feminine hygiene products made pads or tampons for teens so that they were shorter and narrower and such. Didn't find any in my store...

Thanks for all the suggestions, they are appreciated. One teacher had suggested Debbie Gibson, but I am not sure how to have her dress up for that. I will look at the post for how to do the hair, but my daughter's hair is two inches past her waist and all one length. Guess that will make it easy...

My daughter has to dress up and look similar to an 80s female celebrity, can be any genre. My daughter is very slim, has long blonde hair, and blue eyes. I am having difficulty seeing her as anybody from the 80s, so if anybody has any suggestions we can use all help. Thanks in advance. mistmouse

Well, I just received word that the SD is refusing to have mediation. I was contacted by an employee from the State Department of Special Education who says they had talked with the director of SpEd and he refuses to submit a joint request for mediation as there is no reason to mediate them...

Thanks Sheila, Most of the links are still good. I am most grateful to you for this info. I hope the director of SpEd will just decide to forego having an attorney present and I won't have to take it further. mistmouse

Thanks Sheila, How do I get more info on OCR and Section 504 complaints? I think I am going to have to do something drastic to put a stop to this intimidation. I have already put it in writing in more than one letter that I feel intimidated by the SD having counsel present when they know I...

Martie, I was afraid that is what you would say. I will continue to write my letters objecting to the attorney every time I get my invitation to the IEP and am aware they have invited an attorney. I will make sure it gets into the parent input of every IEP that I feel intimidated to the point...

looking4hope, unfortunately, I do not have the services of an attorney available to me. My attorney was through Protection and Advocacy and once the case closed, they aren't available to me. I would have to submit an application to show I needed another case opened, and I am afraid that just...
