Just read on Yahoo News that in order to stop obesity spiraling out of control weight loss operations will be offered free to obese children on the NHS. What happened to educating children about food, nutrition and exercise? Surely education and real information about what various food do is the first step rather than mutilating children by operation? As someone who has never had to struggle too much with weight I just don't understand how these kids are actually eating enough to get as big as they are. As a vegan, I'm concerned that a meat heavy western diet is killing this country slowly but surely and things need to drastically change, now.

I was being nice because I had a former friend who was down and out. I had an 02 Altima I was getting rid of and decided to sell it to a friend for $10,000, with the arrangement that he should pay me as much as he could afford until the car has been paid off. Seeing that he was such a good friend, and had been very trust-worthy, I gave him both sets of keys to the car. Well it's been over a year now and I've only recieved $60, how should I go about repossesing this car. (The Car title is still in my name)

I am trying to gather as much information as possible. If you had a cousin going into foster care, would you step up and take her in?

Some general family info - We (hubby and I) are in our 30s with two boys ages 3, and 6. Money is - for lack of a better term "stable" but not great, we do OK. We love children, but have to admit are kind of scared of jumping into the ring with a teenager (lol) with no experience at it. So we are asking everyone's opinion - What would you do? seriously, really stop and think, put yourself in our shoes. Do you take her in? Please answer Yes or No, then give a reason.

There is more detail to the question in regards to my cousin's history, but I want everyone's opinion based on what's provided, or with out being influenced by her past. I will ask another question with all her history later.

Let me explain...

I have a boyfriend for more than a year and I really truly madly deeply love him...BUT...
The other night I was dreaming about this other guy which is quite cute, but nothing more! I was dreaming that we were kissing...I'm very upset because of that dream. Well, then today at school we had P.E. together (with the guy I was dreaming about) and I couldn't get that dream out of my head, so I was looking a lot at his dierction. We never spoke. Well, I was looking at him and noticed he was waving to somenoe. I looked around but no one else was looking there. Then we were playing volleyball and I was nerveous, but don't know why... We exchanged some looks.

I think he likes me, but that's really a bad time since I don't want anything to disturb my relationship....So I'd really appreciate any tips how to forget about that guy...Thanks.

I remember playing it, honestly I do. You were a group of peeps from all round the world and it was a race against the clock to save earth. You could check on how close the meteorite was by going the scientist and looking thorough the telescope at his lab. I'm sure there were numerous characters and you could chop and change between them. There was also a hot air balloon in there somewhere as well.

Answers like we would not be here if everybody thought the same, is in a true sense not appropriate. We are here doesn't mean we are in a bliss. It can be a curse to be born here. Looking for children in one time I can say was a need. It was the time when human race was minority in the world and had a threat from other animals. To protect themselves they probably needed more children. It does not seem to make any sense now. World is bloating with human population. It is not fun either to have children. You cannot presume the child you are gonna get is divine either.
If it is to prove that we are capable of giving birth or are able to create then it is not very good. We have to grow out of it and think much better. I definitely don't want to say that its good to not have children at all. looking at the current population it seems it should be done only in a more wise way. The reasoning that we want our ambitions to be fulfilled by children is unwise.
