Just call the Dr. and ask. If they say you can't, you don't have to tell them who you are. Also, your school guidance office may have some advice for you.

Do you feel like going crazy when your parent talk too much about ur studies?

One of my teacher always say, just ignore them; they can really make you feel a bit worthless sometime.Do you feel like going crazy when your parent talk too much about ur studies?
its not only my parents, my grandparents are worse... they're like ';its so importants for you, you have to get all your work out of your way now....'; both my grandparents and parents talk like they dont want me to have my social life. I usualy try telling them that I concentrate enough on my studies and that if I have major assignments or tests coming up, then i'll focus more. My parents kinda calmed down over it but my grandoarents are still a pain!!!Do you feel like going crazy when your parent talk too much about ur studies?
As a parent it is our duty to give the life lessons necessary for our children to succeed. Repetition builds retention. Eventually our children will hear what we are saying and get the message.





A teacher should never undermine the authority of a parent and if she/he is doing so then the teacher is overstepping their bounds. When the teacher is taking full responsibility for the welfare of that child from clothing,medical care, food, housing etc... then they can say ignore the person who sweats blood for the student. Until then they are a paycheck teacher who only has the responsibility of educating that child for approx. 1 hr and even that time is not solely spent on any particular student but among 20-30 students.





Will that teacher be providing for that student once he/she has completed H.S. ? Hardly. The teacher won't even look back because she will be too busy teaching the next group of students to ignore their parent(s) while that previous year's student is left floundering and clueless as to what they will do with their lives.

Parent wont fill in financial details for me to get into university?

Im meant to start university in september , my mum wont fill in her finincial detail in the form,so i can get my student loan and Maintenace loan for university what should i do?Parent wont fill in financial details for me to get into university?
Why is she refusing?? I would call the financial aid office at your school and tell them that your parents are not cooperating in your decision to attend school and they wont fill out the FAFSA form. You might be able to get by that, you may have to move out of your home and away to school but you should get money to cover your cost of living, and in return... your mother wont be able to file you as a dependent on her taxes. Tell her that you intend to go to school with or without help. This is sad that she is holding you back, but this could be simple miscommuncation..... you dont tell why.Parent wont fill in financial details for me to get into university?
Fill out everything except the financial info. Then ask her to just fill it in and seal up the envelope. Some parents don't like their children to see this info.

What is the coolest thing a step parent could do for teenage son?

Within some reason - buying a pet gorilla would be out...a million bucks or a brand new sports car would also be out...I have a lot of love, and a realistic budget. Would appreciate any ideas...thanks!What is the coolest thing a step parent could do for teenage son?
Take him to see his favorite band, or sports team. Guys love going to football games, or baseball, whatever he likes. Dont buy him material things, thats just buying his love. And try to have some family outting times too, like going camping or something he likes to do once a week or month. Let him choose something he would really like to do within reason. You will break a barrier and become close. Hope it all helps! Stay in there!!!What is the coolest thing a step parent could do for teenage son?
Get him a 21 year old prostitute.

how about if you just leave them alone?they'll find you if they need anything.seriously!
its not about $$...how about a fishing trip or skiing...something cool and interesting for the whole family
ok, how old is your son? if he is withen anywhere between 5-15yrs old take him to an amusement park for a day, invite a few friends, or go out to the beach for a weekend or longer, one again it would be a good idea to bring friends, if he is any older ask him what he wants do do as his perfect day with you and 1-2 friends or just you, he will jump at the oppurnity to do stuff like that, i am 15 and when my stepdad asks my wht i want to do, my answer is usually either to go to the beach for 3-4 days, go camping or go to a ball game or something interesting like that...hope i helped...i as a 15yr old boy hould be more than happy to give you some advice about what would be cool and fun to do or would be a when are we going home cause i need to wake up 15-20 minutes before we leave kinda deal...firebreathingcobra@yahoo, or just e-mail me through my Q%26amp;A page...(click on my avitar...my pic)
I have a 16 year old step son, The best thing i do for him is listen to him, He tells me things he won't even tell his real mom.....Material things aren't what teenagers are really looking for...Trust me, I have raised 3 of them, Just be there for him, don't EVER try to be the MOM......He has a Mom.........At least most step kids do...
Take him for a week in Amsterdam.
Pose him an imaginary question...what if....? Then try and fulfil his wish as close as you can get to it.





e.g. what if you could travel to anywhere within the ...(whatever country you are in) and then take him on a trip.





e.g. How much money would it take to make you happy this weekend? Cut it down by a whole load and say have fun.But be generous enough.








Take him to dinner and a movie. Talk.





Teach him a sport, take him to a game, teach him to drive if he doesn't already know.





Teach him to cook (if you can) and make a special meal that he can take back to his Mom.





There are loads of things to do.





Have fun!!
Ok I have a step father and obviously a girl. But my mother and step father have had their own child, so I'm practicallly out of the picture all the time. So an XBox
theAddict has the best answer already. give him 10 points.
are you briving him to like you?? or just want to by him something? I dont know what you should get him maybe an xbox 360 or a playstaion 2 stuff boys would like an i pod a cell phone just plain ol money would do.too i am a teenage and those are the things i woul like so i hope this helps.. ----mackenzie
what does he like to do? find out his interests ( such as cars, or video games) and maybe take him somewhere cool or buy him something he would really like
Maybe you could go on a weekend trip together just to hang out and do something you both enjoy (fishing, car races, attending a sporting event, camping...whatever you're both in to....)


Do something adventurous with him that maybe no one else would do such as parasailing, bungee jumping, etc.


You must be a really caring stepparent to be so concerned with wanting to do something special for your stepson. I admire your love for him because so many stepparents are resentful of the children they ';inherit.'; Good luck finding something cool to do with him.


In the meantime, the best thing you could do for him is to always show him how much his Mother means to you. When he's older, he will always have respect for the man who was good to his Mother.
buy a car... my step dad bought me a brand new 2007 car :)
Buy him tickets to his favorite band or sports team
just spend time with him and love him and love his mother.
Motorcycle?
RESPECT!





It seems that is the one thing lacking in most stepfather/child relationships.





You can't buy respect, or love...





Get to know know him, find out what he likes/dislikes. He may not be willing to talk, so pay attention. Pay attention to the shows he picks to watch on TV, pay attention to how he dresses, pay attention to what seems to be important to him...and respect that.





You will find out soon enough what the ';cool'; thing to do is.





If you want to do something right away...ask one of his friends what he would like and take the suggestion to heart.
Letting you meet a celebrity? With Backstage pass?
The coolest thing any parent can do for a child is to love them and spend time with them. Children who have been through divorce do not trust adults and are used to being let down and disappointed. If you can be a constant and faithful parent that is the best gift you could give him. Other things may be nice in the short term but especially vehicles are not a good gift, they are not appreciated and will not be taken care of. Just be yourself, love them and their parent, your spouse.
Most all teenage boys like sports so buy him and you tickets to see his favorite baseball,basketball,or football team play.Just spend time together and have fun!!
I don't think buying him something is the answer. Spending time doing something with him that he really likes would build your relationship and give him wonderful memories. Maybe you can build something together, go fishing, hunting, snorkeling, skiing, help him paint his room, go on a hike or a long bike trip, go camping together, just spend time talking and doing something together. My ex husband buys ours sons lots and lots of things and once my older son said to him, ';I could take all the things you given me and give them back because that's all the love you've ever shown me!'; Kids are smart!

I want to know if there is something in the statutory rape law about a parent giving consent to both parties?

If before anything ever took place a parent or step parent gave consent (state is mo) is there still room for prosecution? all parties were aware and there was consent from an adult that was legal and a guardian. Can they possibly convict if three parties all had consented?I want to know if there is something in the statutory rape law about a parent giving consent to both parties?
Yes, there is---and in all likelihood will it come to this: the rapist will be convicted of statuatory rape because he had sex with a minor(under the age of 16)but the guardians who gave consent to this will face criminal charges for child abuse and lose custody of that child. If the person in question has not gotten charged yet, it will be best to end the sexual relationship and immediately seek counsel of an attorney with the minor person to get all this on record for future protection against lawsuits. If the person in question cares about the minor then this person can absolutely wait until the minor is of legal age, right?


It is such, that the decision to have sex was not made by the guardians--they committed abuse by consenting to have their minor child involved in sex. The person who decided to have sex with a minor was fully aware of the statute(law), yet, decided to have sex anyway, and it does not matter on consent of guardians, it only matters how old the second party was and if under the age of sixteen it is statuatory rapeI want to know if there is something in the statutory rape law about a parent giving consent to both parties?
There isn't a provision of parental consent in the Statutory Rape clause.





I would actually be careful with giving parental consent for this charge as the parent may be prosecuted as an accomplice to the charge. The child who is under the age of consent wouldn't be charged with anything, it would be the adults (over 18) who either commited the sexual acts, and the parents who approved of the act.
not only would there be a statutory rape charge against the adult sex partner but the parent who consented would also be brought up on charges, which depending on the prosecutor could be as high as conspiracy to commit rape





rape, including statutory rape, is not a crime against the victim...it is a crime against society, which is why the victim cannot consent and neither can the victim's parent
Yep the person still can and will be convicted of statutory rape, sentence as a sex offender and will have to register the rest of their life as a sex offender where ever they would go





no the parents cannot not give consent for the minor to have sex, and if they would try that route they could be convicted of endangering welfare of the child,
yes hunny.


you may go bang that old man.








wow. what do you think?


theyd be in just as much trouble.








i dont like the whole deal because the younger party doesnt get in trouble do they? for all we know it was theyre idea sheeeshh.
They can convict the consenting/knowledgeable adults, too!


Contributing to delinquency of a minor, accessory to rape....


Knowledge of the crime being committed makes them guilty, too!
Ok, sex with a minor is illegal, even if everyone consented, so yes, all three can be prosecuted.
uh...so the parent is acting as pimp here?








I don't believe so.

I am thinking of becoming a foster parent what should I expect?

My husband and I want more children we have two now 8 and 5 but we can no longer have children. We have been thinking of adopting but were not sure we could handle it yet. So our thought was to become a foster parent. Can you please give any advice of what to except and what problems we may come in contact with.





I am a stay at home mother and we are a very close family. We would offer a lot of love for any child.I am thinking of becoming a foster parent what should I expect?
Foster parents have one of the hardest jobs in the whole world. They take on kids who have often been through things we can't even imagine.





I remember one girl who went into foster care when she was 14. She had been raped regularly by her father since she was 9, he'd allowed other men to rape her, told her he'd kill her if she told anyone, her mother gave her alcohol to ';calm'; her(she occasionally had real fits of anger, gee wonder why!), and then she watched as her father moved on to her little sister.





That story was extreme, but not uncommon. She stayed with her foster parents until she was 18. She turned into a pretty darn good kid, with their love and a lot of counselling. Her foster parents adopted several of their foster children. And went through some horrible pain when a child they had raised from a few days old until she was 8 was taken away from them, given back to the family, and then was accidentally killed in a domestic dispute a few month later.





I knew another woman who was a foster parent. She had two kids of her own, whom she treated like princesses. The foster kids were treated like Cinderella...only a prince never came for them. They were treated as second class citizens all the way. I couldn't stand that woman.





You might get lucky and get really great kids who appreciate you. You may get unlucky and get kids who are abusive, steal, lie, and have some really major problems.





You may become attached to a child, and love them like your own, only to have them taken away from you.





You may have a child that you just can't stand, but there's no where else for them to go.





You can turn down children, or send them back if things simply aren't working. Generally you aren't out of pocket for anything that is necessary for the children. You'll be paid for their food and care, and their medical care and counselling will be paid for by the government. Sometimes what you think they need might not be provided. Sometimes you can lobby for what they need and get it, sometimes you'll have to pay for it yourself.





I've seen great foster parents who have had dozens and dozens of kids go through their homes, and every child was treated as if they were their own. I've seen others who would only take on one or two long term, and again, treated them like their own children. People like that are so desperately needed, and in my opinion are saints!I am thinking of becoming a foster parent what should I expect?
well it all depends on what age you plan on getting a child. getting a foster child as a new born is just simpliy a lot easier. you may have to talk to the parents of the child though and dealing with these people can be difficult at times. if you plan on adopting a child that is older than expect behavioral problems. most of these kids have been through a lot. and it'll take time for them to get used to living in a different place. good luck :)
Good move but some time when they older they are very hard to control especially if they are coming out of a trouble home wish you best of luck.
I think that be would be awesome.

What is the best compliment you have received from another Mom on the way you parent?

A lady at the park today told me she liked how I was calm but firm with my daughter when I was disciplining her.





How about you?





Lets be positive on Y!A pregnancy/parenting section for a moment..........I know we can relate and get along on some things. RIGHT?What is the best compliment you have received from another Mom on the way you parent?
We went out to lunch today and the couple next to us were just chatting away with Noah. Noah, of course, eats all the attention up. The male said ';He's just as happy as a clam';.





My parents also always compliment me on how good of a mommy I am. Even though they're my parents it still means a lot, especially since they did such a good job in raising my brother and myself.What is the best compliment you have received from another Mom on the way you parent?
I guess when all my co-workers commented on how well behave my daughter was when id have to bring her to work with me, I would have no one to watch her so id bring her and she would stay in our break room for a little watching a movie then if it was dead in the store she would come behind the cash with me and color or even use the swiffer and clean,lol I never made her clean she loved doing it, she was quiet and always behaved. there would be other customers kids in the store and they would be playing in the racks while my daughter was staying by my side or reading. it was the only way I didn't get fired for bringing my kid, they had really nothing to complain about,lol





I worked in a maternity store, so not a big store at all
Asking this questions proves that you are a GOOD and caring mother.





The best compliment ever can only be: ';your baby/child looks happy.'; To a small child or baby, nothing else matters. But if someone else commented that she liked your calm but firm manner - AND you were sensible enough to discipline your daughter when it was needed - then there is nothing better that you can do. Little children need love and guidance; that's all. And if you're giving your little girl those things, then you're being the best mum in the world to her. Good luck to you both. x
My 17 month old son will sit with us for 2 hours in a restraunt and not make a sound. My 17 month old is very well behaved. My 17 month old son listens very well.


And those are the compliments that we hear. Or that he is the perfect baby. Or just how happy and content he is. Or that he is absolulty great.
my foster mother, who essentially rescued me at my worst and seen me grow and change so much in three years, told me i think alot like her and she likes that. she also called me a great mom. i thought that meant alot to me considering when i met her i knew next to nothing about real life.





my brother also told me our deceased mother would be very proud of me and love my son so much. it brought tears to my eyes actually to hear that.
On exiting a restaurant after my 5 young children and I had had dinner the waitress met me at the door to tell me how well behaved the children were. She said she had actually cringed when she saw us come in. My kids always were good when we went places and it was really nice that someone appreciated it.
Aww that's very kind.





A lady a few weeks ago told me my son was the happiest little guy she'd ever seen, and that we must be very interactive, loving parents for him to be so content and social. We were at a restaurant and he was making eyes at her from across the room, LOL he's such a flirt! :)
One lady said, I wish i could get my child to help fold the laundry like your child.


She also puts aways laundry when we're done as part of her chores.
One woman told me that my voice I use with my infant son was soothing... lol weird but I WAS singing to him in the park to make him stop crying
A mom admired how much control I had on my arm as I swung the whip. Tough but fair.

How do you cope with a schizophrenic parent?

A couple of years ago my mother had to be admitted to hospital with a mild case of Schizophrenia, She has since been released and now resides at home with my father whilst taking medication. her bevaiour is erratic to say the least and she has developed a stong religious view since then. I'm finding it really difficult to cope with and was wondering if anyone else out there has been through this before. It gets me down a lot and there are times when her abnormal behaviour seriously frustrates me and makes me angry. It can be embarassing at times and although i feel pity for her it is still overcome by the irritation i feel for having to see her like this. Can anyone help me to take control of my emotions with regards to this?How do you cope with a schizophrenic parent?
Can't be much harder to endure. I did it and it never seems to end. Get away as much as you can. Don't try to take the burden of figuring it out. All your emotions are natural. Don't keep feeling the guilt. Other than that, what can you really do? Can you move away? I had to do that. Are you still mad because of the things of your childhood? You can yell at parents for this. It doesn't sink in, but makes you resolve some of the hurt. Hang in there.How do you cope with a schizophrenic parent?
why is the ocean the greatest body of water?

i work in a home with all schizophenic patients. it is tough while in public, but try to find it in you to see it as a disease. you will have your good days and bad days.
If your town has a community centre then I would start there. I dont know which country you are in but here in australia , each town has a community centre which can help with such issues or lead you to someone who may be able to help.
My mother had the same as yours. She died in '83. It's only in the last few years that i truly came to understand what it was really like for both of us - it's not easy for either of you - but there are answers. There are questions that you've not asked yourself yet. Most of them lie locked up in your Father. That's where i found mine. Understanding the roots of their relationship will help you to understand.





They say Schizophrenia is a disease - thats complete and utter rubbish. If its a disease then why can't you catch it? Your Father knows more than he's admitting.





Is she afraid to go out? Or is she just afraid? Does she do things in repetition? Ask more questions, ask more than you're asking. Someone has a secret they're not telling.

Educated immigrants struggling to settle in Canada


OTTAWA -- A new report suggests immigrants to Canada are highly educated, but struggling to meet their potential.


The study by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities notes that recent working-age immigrants are twice as likely to have a university degree as other Canadians.





A group of commuters waits for a GO bus at Union Station in Toronto, Tuesday April 1, 2008. (THE CANADIAN PRESS / J.P. Moczulski)But these same immigrants are four times more likely to be unemployed, and far less likely to draw economic benefit from their post-secondary degree, than other Canadians.





University-trained immigrants aged 25 to 54 had an unemployment rate of about 12.1 per cent -- barely below the overall 12.8 per cent unemployment rate for all immigrants in that age category.





By comparison, the unemployment rate among university-trained non-immigrants was three per cent -- about half the unemployment rate of 5.6 per cent among non-immigrant Canadians in that age group

Wait until you're 18. While you're living under your parents roof, you need to be grateful for everything they've sacrificed for you and respect their wishes. Once you're independent you can do what ever you want. Find a local organization to join.How doI become a nudist without my parent knowing?
You'll need to be 18 to go to a nudist club or resort, but you might see if there's a nude use beach on a local river or lake, or of course ocean if you're near one. Age doesn't matter there.





Email me, and I can check my resources for you.
You'll probably need to wait until you are over 18. In the meantime you can try to find a girlfriend who has similar views, and then you can go to your local resort to get the no tan lines experience.
