I am 19 years old. My five year old brother is a monster!! I also have a 6 year old sister and a 7 year old brother. Neither of the other children are like the 5 year old. His name is Robert.

His father is really a bad influence. He is verbally abusive towards my mother and everybody else around him. Though I have taught the other two children to not behave like their father, Robert is just not learning.

Out side, if our sister is on his bike, he'll pick a rock up and throw it at her. Inside, he'll pick up pencils and threaten to stab who ever is bothering him.

I know that it IS possible to teach him differently than what he sees his father doing, as i have done it already with my two other siblings.

I feel that letting this problem go will only cause it to become worse. Over the years my brother has become more and more violent. My mother has no Idea to handle the kids, ever, so it is USUALLY up to me.... help?

How essential is it to have faith or belief in a religion, philosophy or creed?
We all seek to know who we are and where we come from, but is it really necessary to our survival and do we loose anything by not having a faith? Is it sufficient to say we don't have the answers and are content to live without knowing or believing that we ever will have all the answers?
For thousands of years mankind has put their faith in hundreds of different belief systems. These belief systems have reflected different cultures and ways of seeing and experiencing the world.

Since the 20th century, science and technology have provided us with answers to questions about ourselves and our world. In a real sense then, we have put our faith or belief into science and human enguinity, rather than into some unseen higher power.

Is there something intrinsic to our nature that requires having a faith or system of beliefs? Would society fall apart without it?

Allowing for school holidays, half term holidays, bank and public holidays, kids are away from school for over 25% of the available weekdays in the year. Throw in a further 5 inset days, that figure rises to over 27%. As an irelevant point of interest, if you were to include weekends in the above equation, kids are away from school for almost 48% of the time. I know that teachers, like all other professionals, need to hone their skills with ongoing training and developement, but surely this can be done during the many school holidays.

They told me to keep the shirt and they would send out the right one, then they emailed me and said they couldn't get that shirt anymore and to pick out another one, and they would give me my money back for the trouble I had. Which they did.
But I still want the t-shirts.
Is their any one I can report them to?

What puzzled me was whenever I heard the song, I couldn't figure out what "error pining" was. Since I finally looked up the lyrics, I now understand it. Are there lyrics in other songs which puzzle you?

The bag should be sturdy and able to support 3-4 medium weighted books. I did see one but the inside was some sort of heavy plastic and the outside was crocheted.

The movies play, I get display and sound just jumps like the old VCR's used to do when tracking needed adjusting. I have determined it is not the DVD player itself nor the cable adapter. I have not changed the cable to the VCR & TV. Could it be that? or the way I have it hooked up?
