Education & Reference - 13 March 2007

I had a retired teacher that seemed so helpful at first on yahoo answers. We even emailed and she gave me some advice but then she dropped me so to speak. I am financially burdened. I have been divorced for 7 .5 years, 5 of which no child support and now I have to stay home because I have to be home for kids in afternoon. I have teins 9.5 and twins 8. I need help w/ one of the 9 year olds. i am desperate for advice and help. He has had suicidal tendencies and possibly homicidal ones as well. He has gotten alot better and has learned to control his temper alot better but the school issues are hurting him. I cannot afford a private tutor and I can't do it because of having my other children. Is there any help out there? Could he somehow fall under any category to receive any financial assistance, ssi, disability, or financial burden grant for me? My other 3 children are in a gifted program so it is difficult for him and he has very low self esteem. Yes, we've done counseling, etc.

“Ill never let you down”, he murmured but the roar of the train had already stolen his words.

Thanks

Since I was in the first grade, my teachers have been telling me never to start sentences with "And" & "But."

For the most part, I have been following that rule ever since. But--err I mean "However," I cannot help but feel like that rule has hindered me from expressing myself more eloquently and poetically in my papers and essays.

Many times I have looked at a sentence I wrote on a paper and went, "Man the sounds really good to me, but I know my professor's going to mark me for starting it with 'And', so I better use more lame words like 'furthermore,' or 'in addition,'"

Who exactly thought of forbidding students from starting their sentences with "And" and "But," and why?

And (AND) are we gradually moving away from that archaic rule of writing?

I'm thinking about going back to school to get a doctorate in linguistics. Can anyone tell me what I should expect as far as a PhD program goes? Also, I'm curious about my dissertation. How will I go about the research? And most importantly what should I write about? Am I assigned a topic? How long should I expect to be in school if my BA is completely unrelated to linguistics? I'd appreciate any input you all have. Thank you.

I have a teacher who, never teaches. Just tell us to do this and this and spends the rest of the class doing God knows what. Every time a student asks a question she says that they are stupid and the question is too dumb to get an answer. No these are not exaggerations. What do I do?
