Here's a personal example: a friend of mine came here from Colombia under a political asylum agreement and for one year her parents kept her and her sister out of school so that they could get english lessons. As a result, both girls could speak fluent english, the parents speak functional english and despite their strong South American roots their whole family is as red white and blue as the rest of us.

..... i understand that maybe there needs to be a transition period from english to spanish, but school districts should not provide Spanish language education for someone from grades K-12. School disctricts should provide for a 1 year transition period and after that it's all english. Of course i'm not saying ban Spanish in the home or the workplace as some will try to claim in their responses.

We have lived together for 4 months and last month we had an issue were he was missing his girls (2 ages 9 & 13). Well he ended up getting them for the summer and now they were due to go back home next month and he is back on I will miss them thing. He told me it wasn't me, but him and that maybe he should not be living with someone. I've supported him since he came to CA for CO and even bough him a car, now he wants to bail. I told him to just go back now because next month it will be the same thing and the month after that the same and I don't have the time or the energy to deal. He accused me of not getting things for the house when we are out like I use too because he girls are here and my 6 year old son is not(visits his dad 2 weeks out of month). But I told him its because he has a job and if he sees we are out of someting he should go get it!!! Last month after he apolgized we agreed to work it out, well now I don't even want to try its not worth it to me. Am I wrong ?

I love to sing but I need alot of training, self confidence wise, musically and need to get out there more and I know there is a good chance I won't make it but I am afraid that if I study as a dental hygienist I will get tired of it and I am a person who doesn't like to be in a routine cooped up in an office my whole life and I hate working in office settings as I had bad experiences with people who work in the office/business atmosphere. I like to travel, move around, be outside and help people. But I also want to make enough money to survive and live comfortably. I feel its my duty to take care of my mom and sister since my father passed away but I am not sure what to do. My grade point average is 3.4 and dental hygiene is so demanding and I am not sure I want it that badly. Help! Is there anyone in this position and not sure what to do?

I work in a small retail store and always make sure to say hello to everyone who walks. I also wish them a good day or weekend when they leave and thank them for their business.

Quite a few people just say something like "ya" and leave.

I've also noticed that when I go to other stores and resetaurants you rarely have someone saying thank you/have a great day, let alone hello when you
walk in.

Why have people stopped caring and become so rude?

Also, smile once in a while! It will make you feel good as well as the person the smile is directed to. It won't kill you.

I think one of the only places I get a smile now is McDonalds, and even they are lacking in the smile department nowadays.
