My daughter is 11 and just went into the sixth grade. She has always been a mama's baby but also is extremely mature in her mind for her age. She always has been ahead and acted older. She acts like she's 15 or 16. Suddenly this year she started acting like she hates me and does not want me around or want to spend time with me anymore. It really hurts since she is my only child and I don't know what to do. She is very popular at school and is now only interested in her friends. Should I be concerned? I know this is normal at a later age but she is still only eleven, even though she has the body and mind of an older child. Please help.

I have a son who is 4 yrs old. I adore him but I do not want and will not have any more children. I nearly died after his birth and the depression that set in post partum was crippling. I won't go through it again. Problem is, everyone in my family has several children and they always ask why I would let my son be an only child. They ask why I won't have more kids. On and on and on. I don't want to volunteer the real reason why, so what can I tell them? I've tried the simple "I don't think I can handle more kids" and they say "we'll help you with them!" Is there a better answer for this?
(by the way, most of the family asking do not know about my mental state and hospitalization following his birth. I kept it a secret from everyone but my mother)

Just a few snippets of the loving leftists concerning our men and women fighting:

Senator Harry Reid: “That this war is lost, and that the surge is not accomplishing anything.”

John Kerry: “If you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq.”

Congressman John Murtha: “Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood.”

Senator Dick Durbin: “If I read this to you and didn't tell you it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have happened by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags or some mad regime, Pol Pot or others that had no concern for human beings.”

My daughter's names are Olivia and Sophia. We are pregnant with a third girl and I have always loved the name Lydia. It is a family name as well. Be honest though, is it too close to Olivia? I am stumped this time on names and this is one that I have always loved since I was a little girl.

I saw this movie yesterday...I was HORRIFIED...

In the movie, whole Britain is destroyed by a terrible virus which turns the humans into zombies who kill and eat everyone...
The most terrifying thing is the fact the virus has IMMEDIATE effects, and the attacked person becomes a zombie in less than 1 minute.
In the movie, there are some scary images and horrible scenes, and last night I was so scared that I closed all my windows ( despite of the heat )
I noticed that ,at several times, the virus could strike new victims just because of the psychology and the pity of the characters ( the US soldier who refuses to shot the young child, and he decides to save some humans ; the military doctor who wants to help the two children ; the husband who kisses her infected woman, because he beg pardon ; the helicopter US Black pilot who accepts to carry the two children; etc...)

I never felt such a thrill in my whole life

THAT KIND OF VIRUS CANNOT EXIST, CAN IT ?

Why do so many black men worship and lust after non-black women or black women that look mixed?
Especially dark skin men!! Look at the our so called network nothing but non-black women and light skin women on the shows. All the videos have only European looking black women with long "good hair", light skin and light eyes. Is that the only thing that is beautiful to many black men? Our women are BEAUTIFUL in all shades and ALL hair types so stop being so brainwashed and stupid!!!

Imagine, your Aunt dies and leaves you money in her will equivalent to 30,000 British Pounds. The only clause is that you have to spend it on an environmentally friendly product/service/item or issue. And you MUST SPEND it or it is given to the local cat's home. What would you buy?

With the madenning spree that the modern civilization is utlilizing fuel, there is little hope that the end of petrol/fuel would mark the end of all this technology (electricity, wireless comm, tech gadgets, vehicles). So, imagining the fuelless life on earth is pathetic as all of us have become so dependant of this form of energy. So might argue about solar/nuclear energies but don't you feel these are too limited to be exploted ?

So, we might end up dying without food in the long run, or the corporate offices and huge structures which were built will be electricity less and eventually no body would be able to travel. So, this present way of exploiting fuel is leading us to a global suicide.(atleast future generations are going to suffer). What do you think ?

Hi everybody,

I'm a cancer girl with a gemini rising and my boyfriend is an aquarius with a scorpio rising. Supposedly Cancer and aquarius don't work because I'm reall emotional and he's too aloof. Which is kind of true... we argue a lot but as drama free as i like to be we're still together so i guess we like the drama. i tried to figure out if our rising were compatible but apparently gemini and scorpio aren't so hot together either... Is there any hope or what are some tips based on astrology that could help? Please no cutting and pasting... I've googled our signs extensively Lol I thought maybe someone just might know astrology pretty well and have some advice. We're both the youngest of our families, if that helps.
