I've loved that quote ever since I found it in a pro-gay quote website. I'm pretty sure he wasn't talking about homosexuality when he said it though. Does anyone know why he said this?

I'm 21 and going back to college in the fall. My first choice was to go into civil engineering. I don't know anything about engineering, but I do know what engineers do. At least the final product. But I love music. I play the trumpet and I love it. I know that I'd have a hard time making a living unless I was incredible, but it'd still be fun. I'm almost afraid that I'd start looking at music as a job instead of the beatiful talent that I see it as now. I don't want to waste anymore time by choosing a major then not sticking with it, so it's either civil engineering or music. But.. there's nothing to say if I choose engineering that I can't keep playing and loving music...

"I've noticed that I lost the ability to pronounce words like "asked" and other words (that I can't think off the top of my head). I kind of developed a stutter and I sometimes can't find the right word to say anymore or I can't find synonyms of a word in normal conversation. Is it possible to develop these speech problems? I mean I'm kind of insecure about what I say because I feel like I sound stupid saying it, but it gets kind of annoying because I look stupid trying to think of the right thing to say or I think about it, but it comes out in a stutter. How do I fix this? I want to be secure with myself and speak properly. Do tongue twisters help diction? What about my stutter and insecurity? Do I have to brush up on vocabulary?" - I am having the exact same problems as the yahoo user i quoted. Any suggestions?

My son got straight A's in all of his classes except for Language Arts. He got an F in that. As a result, the school is holding him back, which I think is totally ridiculous. I would like to work on his skills over the summer. What are some good sites where I can find Language arts lesson plans for 6th graders? I have found some, but they either require a fee, or they are for much younger children. Also, what do you suggest we do? Worksheets? Try to read more books?

I keep seeing these Impossible Question question, whats the source? Is there a website or is it a quiz that is going around the schools. The questions sound like they might be interesting but, all I ever see of them is "Question 23" answer please. How are we supposed to answer that?

Some help here. Maybe, this will clear up some confusion with a couple of people that I've seen answer "What?" to those types of questions.

When I was married to my ex husband I homeschooled my step son with fantastic results. Now I'm remarried, and no longer a stay at home mom. My own son HATES the school he goes to, and for the first time he is having problems and will probably be held back this year. He has always liked school before, and was in a gifted program in his other school, but since moving here with my new husband, he's had problems. He doesn't get along with the teachers, and the kids bully him a lot. I am not happy with the school here either, and would love to homeschool him. However, when asked about it, he said no, he doesn't want to be homeschooled. I'm torn. I want to homeschool, but I'm not sure I could do it, as I work part time and go to school myself full time. Plus if he doesn't want to be homeschooled, how could I? I just hate to see a once bright kid who liked school being held back this year.

The child is 11 years old and was taken to the doctor when he was in the third grade. The mother is an educator and recognized the symptoms, but the doctor says no. He just has tendencies. Without the doctors go ahead, there can be no 504 plan or IEP. I am the counselor at the school and trying to help. What do I do?

I already passed my Algebra 1 class this year but I wanted to check if I am right in something. My teacher is the schools basketball coach. He lets the boys basketball players come in and do whatever they want. He always busy and barely explains anything. To top all that off, if I would to say a bad word or skip he would immediately notice and *****. But with this other girls, which always are using their phones, listening to their Ipods saying bad words, he lets them do anything. One of them even charges their phone. To prove how lazy he is, he doesn't put grades in until the last minute. He sometimes makes up grades for assignments not done, such as a quiz that we never took in which he gave me an F.
To worsen matters, I didn't past the math section of the FCAT by 20 points and I think it was his fault cause he didn't teach correctly.

Am I right or wrong? How can I do good in Geometry if I didn't learn anything in Algebra 1?
