2008-05-29 21:07:15 on MY 5 yr Old has ADHD and I’m waiting on his Ridalin to kick in….
Thank you for understanding !!! The Ritalin does work , and it did right away.. He is still very active on the Ritalin , but I noticed his mind has slowed down to where he can understand and comprehend what he is being told.. He listens, he’s not rude anymore, and its helped his concentration emensley !!! Since he has started taking the Ritalin , he has taught himself almost the whole alphabet and how to idientify all of them and his numbers.. I am so proud of him. Before the medicine he made it soooo hard to love on him or praise him for anything , he was sooo BAD !! It was a nightmare… We tried disiplin, we tried time out, and believe me a butt whoopin, had NO affect what so ever.. In fact the more you punished or smacked, the more it fueled his anger, and rage … I know how some people say a good old fashioned *** beating is all he needs, is wrong !! I’m so glad you wrote me,,, THANK YOU FOR ASSURING ME, THAT IT IS OK…. Some people really look down on giving Ritalin to a 5 yr old.. And I didnt do it just cause,, I did it cause he REALLLY NEEDED HELP!! He is the youngest of 4 kids, and I knew there was something really wrong with his behavior .. He is the youngest of 4,, but he is mine and my husbands 1st toghether .. I am hoping that he won’t have to be on the Ritalin forever.. I have hopes that he may outgrow it.. He is on 20mg LA (long acting)… And then he takes a sleeping pill at bedtime.. Anyway he’s doing wonderful !!! And he’s not even comatose… Thanks again … Its nice to talk with some body that’s BEEN THERE…., unlike sombody that has NO clue… Thanks and take care….

He was on the vurge of hurting himself or one of my other kids.. He has been in counseling for over 8 months, and it’s helped also..I just want all 4 of my kids to be happy, healthy, and safe… The doctor said that if I did’nt medicate him, and he ended up hurting one of my other kids, that it would be all my fault for not getting him the help that he needed in the 1st place…

I did’nt want to medicate him… Believe me.. He was reeeeealy angry one day and he went to the drawer to get a knife to kill my 12 yr old daughter. It took 3 of us to keep him from opening the drawer. The medicine has done wonders for him and his concentration. He has calmed down and took the time to learn his letters and numbers.. I hope he is only on it for a few years… at most…

I like wi-fi … I have the I-phone, and it always pick up on it.. That’s what I’m using right now ,, my phone.. LOL .. I love technology.. My hubby calls me a geek… LOL … He’s primative and won’t even learn how to turn the laptop on … Ya you can’t trust foreign softwear.. Viruses can be nasty… I’m just glad my ex-hubby hasn’t sent me one… (yet) … Nock on wood!!!!!
2008-04-28 23:39:41 on can you get a virus on your computer without hooking up to the internet?
LOL … I had a brain fart.. I couldn’t remember how to spell wi-fi… LOL … Duh… Now I feel stupid… LOL jk

Then your right , he is stupid… LOL … Just kidding … Tell him that your right and we all say he’s wrong …
2008-04-28 23:33:37 on can you get a virus on your computer without hooking up to the internet?
If you have broadband, wireless, or wyfi you can .. Or like they said , if you put something in it that is infected.. My laptop accualy coughed at me a few times … That freaked me out … I said to my kids, is that a bad sign when your computer starts coughing ??? LOL … Somehow it stopped… Oh well … Hope it helped
2008-04-28 23:19:16 on I’m sick but I don’t have any medical insurance or any money…..HELP!
I think zertec is for allergies ?? You have an infection … If anything comes out of your nose or throat green or yellow , that is the indication of an infection .. The fastest way I get rid of my colds and infections is with some plain ol’ Vitamin C… Its natures cure all for me.. It cuts my colds and infections in half .. Or more than half.. You can buy the chewables over the counter .. 50 of them for around 4$… Take 1 right away and then take another 12 hours later.. Then in two days you can cut down to just 1 pill a day.. It works !! I promise .. I also have no insurance.. Plus I have 4 kids … If the bleeding keeps up, then go to the Emergency room.. If your single or low income , then 9 times out of 10 , you can ask for financial assistance .. I have had many of ER bills written off.. You’d be suprise … I hope it helps… Take care ..

I too got married after only 2 months.. Only I was 17 and the + pregnancy test came 2 weeks after the honey moon.. My advise is, if you both still have feelings for one another, is to do something toghether that made you fall in love in the first place.. Try and put the spark back in your life, and hopefuly the rest will fall in place.. I ended up having 3 kids with my 1st hubby .. That mariage lasted 6 years and 3 kids .. LOL … Every time I tried to put the spark back in , I ended up pregnant anyway.. Try not to stress too much, everything is all new to both of you… You obvisouly liked something about each other to go as far as you both have … Work on your spark, and see what happens.. Good luck …

I think you’ll make the right descision, just dont wait 10 years… I wish you a heaping pile of luck on your quest we all call LIFE … Good luck , and remember , dont ever hesitate to ask ANY body for help… Parents, teachers, friends.. Or even me for that matter… Take care ….
P.S …. The crazy parts of our life are what helps us to be strong and discover who we are.. Remember what doesnt kill us , makes us stronger….

Anybody can do anything as long as they put there mind to it.. Even if that means ignoring the mean teachers..Your better than they are .. Your gonna go on to do great things , not be stuck in a crappy class room yelling at teenagers … LOL …(Laugh Out Loud) …. I had a boss one time that I couldn’t stand !!! I seriously thought that she had it in for me, she was ALWAYS yelling at me and pushing me to do the job right … After I got the hang of it we became friends .. I even had a yard sale with her at her house one time .. That was almost 11 years ago .. I still talk with her when I go into the resturant .. Teachers push you because they dont want you to end up where they are.. LOL …
