I work in social services and had a 12 yr old who was recommended to attend a Magnetic Program during high school. I provided his mother with the application about a month ago and informed her of the date and time the application must be submitted. I followed up about a week before the application was due and his mother informed me that he has not completed it but she will have him do it over the weekend. I advised her that he will need some assistance.
The day before the application…

Today, just like every day Connor reached up toward our wall of frames and pointed to the picture of my husband as a little boy on the beach with his father. We pick him up so he can see it and say “There’s Daddy when he was your age with Grandpa.”…

When it comes to cleaning and organizing your home, sometimes it is just easier to do things yourself. Sometimes your kids just don’t know how to do it right. But as you know by now, your kids are little sponges and soak up habits, good and bad, quickly. Take time out to show your kids how to complete tasks…

Remember turning around in the store and suddenly your child wasn’t there? Usually you find them within moments, but that sick feeling in the pit of your stomach reminds you that not every parent will be so lucky. Every year thousands of children become victims of crime – whether it’s through kidnappings, violent attacks, or sexual abuse, according to the FBI’s Crimes…

Signing for babies is very rewarding and fun, but every parent wants to know which signs are the best to start with.
The most common sign that parents, who are not taking classes, choose to start signing is MORE. Be aware-vague signs like MORE might be… Continue

Several New Jersey high schools have already instituted No Homework For Holidays, but that isn't satisfying everyone as some N.J. Parents Move to Abolish Homework all together.
In Maplewood, New Jersey high school students are in an uproar about having what they consider too much homework and their parents are joining the protest. But, they don't want it lowered - they want it gone.
"“Two or three hours,” freshman Maddy Reichman told…

I recently had a discussion with an impressive high school senior who attends an unimpressive high school. Feel free to pass this around to parents who have school age children if you like it. All the best and Merry Christmas!!!

A spare hour between two meetings today called for catching up on e-mails with a delicious latte made with locally roasted coffee at
Carolina Roasters... nothing like the comforting smell and delicious taste of freshly roasted coffee to boost my productivity level! More often than not, I associate a place, its warmth and smell with events and…

I thought that maybe on this Toddler Tuesday, I would travel off the beaten path of cute baby pics and
videos, to bring you a few tips regarding making your own baby food at
home. You see, somewhere along the way I got it into my head that I
would never serve Riley any store bought baby food. I had always heard
how expensive that stuff was and how easy making your own baby food
really is. Also, I…

As promised in an earlier tip, I wanted to write a post dedicated to creating tables in your blog. You would be surprised at how much I use this valuable tool to
get things to look just right and maximize my space on sidebars, footers
and even in posts. What you can accomplish with the use of tables is
amazing and I think it is a tool that every blogger should be familiar
with...so here we go! (As a matter of fact, I used…
