I have a twelve year old nephew who is retarded. For his birthday every year instead of giving him real money, I simply give him counterfeit bills in various denominations. My rationale for this is that since he is retarded he will not be able to distinguish real bills from fake ones; Therefore why should I spend money on him when I have a cheaper faker alternative. He has not been caught yet and even if he was I'm sure they would let him off with a warning. In all honesty is what I am doing wrong? I would like some guidance in this matter.

I have been dating my fiance for almost two years now. We are very open and honest about everything to each other. I do have a problem. They have a beautiful little girl together. The two cats that they had live with us. I understand that they have to talk about child issues from time to time, and she comes to our house (when I am at work) to visit the cats. I don't want to see or meet her. They have been divorced now for a few months (We were serious with each other before it was final). She has dated a few guys and one even asked her to marry him and she said no. She later told my fiance it was because she wanted him back and that god told her that they were getting back together. My jealousy is horrible. I am afraid that it will tear us apart. Everytime she calls, it makes me sick. I just can't imagine what else she is going to say. He tells me all the time that I am fearing and driving myself crazy for no reason. But it is so hard. I want to stop, but my question is how?

A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, "how heavy is this glass of water? "

Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.

The lecturer replied,

"The absolute weight doesn't matter.

It depends on how long you try to hold it.

"If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem.

If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm.

If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance.

"In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. "

He continued,

"And that's the way it is with stress management.

If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on. "

"As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again.

When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden. "

"So, before you return home tonight,

put the burden of work down.

Don't carry it home.

You can pick it up tomorrow.



Whatever burdens you're carrying now,

let them down for a moment if you can. "

"Relax; pick them up later after you've rested.

Life is short.

Enjoy it!


And then he shared some ways of dealing with the burdens of life:

* Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.

* Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

* Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.

* Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their Maker.

* If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

* If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

* It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

* Never buy a car you can't push.

* Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on.

* Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

* Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.

* The second mouse gets the cheese.

* When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

* Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.

* You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.

* Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

* We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull, Some have weird names , and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

If I find out this person stole my money I will put them out of my life forever. But what would you do if you strongly believe they took the money but you have no proof. You can't just put someone out of your life for suspiscion...but how can you live with them being in it if you think they did it?

my ipod was stolen out of my teachers desk yesterday. i told the rents and they said that becasue he was responsible for it at that time its his fault and he needs to pay for it. my dad told me to tell my teach that if he doesnt pay, hes gonna sue. so today i wrote a note saying all this but wasnt gonna give to teach until i showed rents. then in english i remembered that i didnt have it. searched entire backpack and couldnt find it. then went into my class and looked on my desk, on the floor, in my math folder, and in trash. couldnt find it. this may not sound like a big deal but when it comes to teachers and not happy bad things im a wreck. so.......

Am I being too hard on him?
My fiance lied and said he payed $190 in rent and he only paid $100 (bi-weekly rent) I found the reciept in his wallet. He said he did it so we had spending money for the weekend. I'm taking this very seriously because I never expected him to lie to me and now I'm shocked and very pissed and I'm even thinking of telling him I want to rethink marraige. The guy is really sweet and completly head over heels for me, I don't want to be too mean or harsh to him but I've never been good at sugar coating things when I'm upset, I'm very very blunt, but I don't want to hurt him, he's the sensitive type. Am I making too big of deal of this? Should I not tell him I want to rethink the marraige?

He walked out on us for a transvestite, and when I posted this some time ago, so many people responded that I should just accept this. Why is that? WHY SHOULD I ACCEPT THAT? He deceived my family, used us, still won't admit he's bi, left us high and dry...for another MAN, and people think I should just be cool with this? I did not choose this lifestyle for my child or myself, but while we struggle with his choice, he's just living large and continuing to lie to other women while he's still wooing his transvestite lover. Why should anyone accept that? It's disturbing and wrong--on SO many levels--in my opinion
