that you need to get him into see another counselor - and it may be time for a medication to help with the anger outbursts. Med and therapy go hand in hand with this - ask for an immediate appointment - this is kind of a crisis sitution really when younger siblings are being hurt - it trickles down and you don't want them to have problems also. Best of luck!

Graphic compared to the stuff we type every day??
NOT!
Is it possible you've become more lactose-intolerant over the years? You could always give some of those OTC products a try; the names escape me right now. I developed a (thankfully short) bout of lactose intolerance once after a bad case of the stomach flu....
Other than that, just getting up and moving around a little more often might help.
And depending on whether the gas is upper or lower... when I have upper gas and indigestion, my favorite remedy is to sip ginger allergy and pace the floor. Those measures seem to help me burp which then make me feel better.
Good luck and I hope YOU feel better!
Do you get dressed to work or stay in PJ type of stuff? Sometimes that

But obesity IS life-threatening. I type lots of that stuff -
and for the most part the psych. evaluation is more to be sure the person has not only the desire for the operation, but the support in place to help them through the difficult time afterward. It's not a walk in the park, not only is it major surgery, but there are lots of eating problems afterward. Too much food, or too much fatty or other hard-to-digest food, and they can become quite ill. They also have to begin a diet and lose a certain percentage of their weight before they get okayed for surgery. I think in part to make them safer to operate on, but also to begin to change their eating habits. After the gastric bypass, one still has to watch what they eat so as not to regain weight. But of course the bypass helps with how much they eat - because the stomach is a lot smaller. Still, if all the requirements are in place, I think for many people GP is much preferable to dying of other diseases caused by obesity. It also can make it possible for them to exercise and build up their cardiovascular system, further improving their health.
Sometimes have to type things that you don't agree with ...
When typing a verbatim psych consult, I occasionally have to type language that is objectable, when a patient is quoted. The "F" word is one I don't like, never use myself, but hey, if the doctor says it, you've gotta type it.
agree with you. This stuff has not been
available long enough to make a determination. I am reminded of Avandia which almost put my mother in the hospital because she was one of the few to have increase in fluids from it. The docs kept telling her that it was impossible that Avandia was the problem. I spoke to one OB-Gyn and one infectious disease doctor, both of whom did not recommend this vaccine, one saying why was it only for girls. This was about 2 years ago when our gov was considering making it mandatory in Tx, too. One doc said it was a lot of hype as it only protected against 4 of the more than 200 strains known. One research physician on a radio show claims it actually is a cancer trigger for later in life, so who knows? Afraid abstinence is the only sure prevention. BTW, sex ed in school does not seem to have prepared students for orally transmitted STD's - go figure.
Totally, totally agree.
You feel inadequate and no matter what you do - you feel like it is not enough - and that is depression. Get on some medication, or get some therapy and start taking time for yourself and enjoy life. Been there and done that myself - STOP FEELING GUILTY - you deserve better!!
Agree, my cousin works in a similar type of school
a grammar school no less, and kids are doing sexual acts in the stairwells, etc. It is a very screwed up world where age 11 has become the new 18; passing gas is the least of our worries.
I agree; also you don't sell stuff like that at yard sales.
Save it for ebay or something like that. Tough lesson learned.
I'll join you!! I agree.made me cry too, love this stuff!

Totally agree with you!
Santa Claus was a wonderful time for me and my children. I did not suffer any ill effects from knowing the truth. This is a magical time for children. They believe in goblins, ghosts, the Easter Bunny, play friends that only they can see and talk with, fairies among lots of others. Why in the world would anyone want to deny a child the pleasure of thinking they are that important that this man in the red suit is coming especially to give them presents. It really made me feel special but I guess other parents want to cut some of the fun time from the child's life.How sad....
I totally agree with you, well said.
I find that others think since I work at home, they can interrupt me any time they want, I am expected to cover things while they are at work, etc. I want to be left alone during my work hours to do my work. I have worked in offices where you were not allowed to have personal calls during work hours, which is fairly common. I think I am going to disconnect my phone during my work hours. Sometimes I feel by working at home I don't get the same respect for my job than others in my home that work outside the home.
Oh, I totally agree with you there...sm
these are the kids my daughter deals with every day, but she understands at their age, they didn't ask for their circumstances. No child at age 8 or 9 should know anything about sex, using the B word, MF word, and other stuff. They can't write a sentence but they can tell her how to get more food stamps, how their older sister had another baby so she could get more money in her check....the stories go on and on. But the point we started out with was GI upset...they can't help being made take meds that make them physically sick.
I totally agree with you...
Just a curious question. We are only as young (or old) as we feel, right! I am 37 and feel (most days) much, much younger...like I said before, it is a relative question...thanks for your reply! 
Totally agree. nm

I totally agree (sm),
in fact, I should have eloped since I had recently moved and hadn't accumulated many new friends yet. The reception was really lame with the weird mix of people, some of whom I couldn't stand, but mom assured me they wouldn't come, and we were just doing the right thing.
Put on a syrupy sweet voice and tell your mother it is tempting to make this a social event for us, but this is really THEIR event. Let's do it their way since it only happens once. Let's not ruin their big day by arguing about it.
I totally agree and nothing to look at either
I can't believe all these people think he's so great. Yuck.
I totally agree-
it does make the award seem insignificant. They say they don't want any kids to feel 'left out.' Isn't that one of the main motivators to work harder? What about the child who truly earned the award? How does that child feel when the same award is given out indiscriminately so as not to hurt anyone's self esteem?
IMO self esteem comes from doing your best and feeling pride in yourself because of it- and if you are doing your best and improving you will not need some phony award to feel good about yourself, because you already will.
When these kids grow up they are going to be in the real world where they will be expected to perform to certain standards because that is what is expected from everyone. It seems like it is getting harder to find people who find satisfaction in doing a good job just for the sake of doing it. I wonder if there is any correlation here.
Totally agree-
I don't know why the parents would not have told their kids by now, but it is for them to do. It would be even more traumatic for the kids to hear it from someone else.
I was adopted and thank God I always knew I was. When I was too young to really understand they simply told me that I was special because they chose me. For years I pictured this baby store and my parents walking up and down the aisles shopping, LOL.
I totally agree with you!
I have grown sons, 26 and 18. I would never snoop in their e-mail. We have a great relationship and I do trust them. I am not saying that I have not or would not read their e-mail, but if I did, it was because I was looking at something on their computer which they would be aware of (or at least not care) and if an e-mail looked interesting I would read it and tell them. I think they would do the same with me and I also would not care. I think if you have a good relationship with your kids, that you know them pretty well and would know if you should worry or not. I truly believe that most parents, if they would just open their eyes, already know when there are problems. I get angry when I hear of someone who says "I had no clue" because I think that they do and just do not want to believe it. I think you are doing the right thing by trusting your kids. Keep it up!
Totally agree
I first noticed him on "Roseanne" and thought he was strange-looking and not at all attractive. My opinion hasn't changed over the years.
Don't like Brad Pitt, either. I don't go for the "pretty boys." Give me some depth of character. Looks are definitely secondary.
Totally agree
This week in fact I was feeling down in the dumps, did some praying and went out to do something nice for someone else, it made a big difference!! Thanks for the post.
I totally agree!
There are way too many gray areas on this. I absolutely detest child molesters and would never want one knowingly around my children. But the 18yo with a 15yo is completely different and should not be lumped into the same group and treated the same way.
I once worked in the children's services field and talked extensively with a professional who worked with sex offenders, and he told me that pedophiles can never be rehabilitated, and that they will always repeat the offense. There's a good case for locking them up for good, don't you think?
I totally agree with you ...

Yeah, that comment was not the smartest thing to say. Now she will probably fear the police for no good reason. Not a good move.
totally agree
Boy I couldn't have said it better myself. Good job. This is exactly what you need to do mom. It's hard to hear but this is the way to do it and then get counseling for yourself to help you deal with your feelings. Christian counseling if possible. Take care and God bless!
I totally agree
I would have definitely been at the school in person or at the superintendent's office, wherever that may be. E-mails can be ignored, forgotten about, and sometimes never even read. A much more proactive approach would be an in person meeting with the school administration to get this taken care of so that nothing like it happens again.
Totally agree - sm
Good luck with your situation too. Kids can't pick their parents and every kid deserves to be loved.
I agree with you totally
It is not fair to the little girl to not go to school, but it sounds like the mother is lazy or beyond. It is always going to be unfair to children who have lazy or ignorant parents, but all others should not have to pay for it. I feel sorry for the little girl because she obviously has no one to love her enough to take care of her. So sad. I don't blame you for going to the School Board. I would be right there with you.
I totally agree!
I could never even begin to imagine leaving any of my pets locked up in a garage all day and night. That is not a good life for any animal, nor is it at all fair. It's kind of like they are in jail. I always have all of my pets with me at all times IN the house and would never have it any other way!
I totally agree with
Monte Carlo. I have been to vegas many times and it is my favorite place to stay, love the convenience, love the price! Have fun!
totally agree
No one is happy when a loved one dies - but mostly we are sad for ourselves because we don't have the joy of having them with us any more. . . If they are elderly and lived a good life, it is good to celebrate all the wonderful aspects of their life - and be happy they are in a better place. . Of course, this is very difficult to do - we want to keep them with us. . Everybody does grieve differently - just be a good friend and just physically be there for the family - it means a lot. .
I agree totally
I am so glad other people see this. Dumbing us down is the perfect way to describe what the media on TV is doing to us. I used to tell my mom about things in the news and she would tell me I didn't know what I was talking about, she didn't hear that on "the news", and I'm totally whacked for believing anything on the internet. Then a couple weeks later something would come out on the news and I would say to her - Now do you believe me. She would then act as though our previous conversation didn't happen.
I totally agree.
at this point. I would also like to see a Christian with a more American name; sorry Obama, but sounds too much like Osama.....
I totally agree!
I just got a catalog in the mail from some clothing line I've never heard of. While I thought some of the clothes were cute when I looked at the models I was like okay well obviously these clothes aren't designed for a 30+-year-old! I mean honestly talk to me after you hit 25 and your metabolism changes THEN try to tell me someone my age will look good in that underwear :)
I totally agree
Oh I totally agree. I think the laws that they are breaking are deplorable. Personally, I think people that abuse children, as they certainly have done by forcing minors to marry adults, should get a direct ticket to you know where. I was just trying to point out the ignorance of the statements the woman made in this article. It is so obvious she's been, well brainwashed isn't the right word, but you know what I mean. Heck there is one spot in the Bible where one of the disciples says women should not be heard in church for crying out loud!
I totally agree! nm
Totally agree 110%!!!!

Michigan is in the pits of a recession....highest foreclosure rate, highest unemployment rate, people are moving out of the state left and right....very scary times here!
I totally agree
This reminds me of my MIL, and how she was too. She felt she could do what she wanted because she was the children's grandmother. This is a good time to establish a few ground rules where your child is concerned, while trying not to hurt her feelings, but she should know that she has to ask you about anything that concerns activities with your children. Children depend on us for their safety, and you can't replace your child if anything happens, so you have every right to say no I don't want my child doing that. I don't mean to pry, but what does the child's father think about her doing this? If she had really thought about this she should have realized this idea about taking a 9 month old baby on a 4-wheeler is totally wrong.
Totally agree!

I thought of all this when I was younger & decided that for me there was a certain attraction to "having a baby" - i.e., going through the birth process -- but none whatsoever to "being a parent." So I decided not to have kids & stuck to it. I've never regretted that decision. The experience of mothering can come in forms other than the obvious.
oh i totally agree
I didn't post it cause i hate men, in fact it's quite the opposite (unfortunately) I just like to get a good laugh.
there are bad men just as there are bad women. Anything that puts either side down that is made a joke though is most of the time funny to me. :)
good for you having such a fabulous man... I know my prince charming will come :)

I totally agree about...
having a secure job. However, my husband and I were not planning on moving until June and this job came up and I wanted to apply for it. We would be moving 4 months before we were planning to and I do have some time to look for more work. It would be very hard to pass up though. I'm torn. Its a very hard decision.
totally agree
I add to this (everyone else may not) that it is easier to give a harsh reply from the privacy and anonymity of one's computer. And occasionally the normal e-confusion of things that come out differently (worse) in print than they would have if spoken.
I totally agree
All I know is I couldn't handle being in another land, speaking another language and being a doctor at that. Heck, I couldn't even be an MT without it being in English. Wow, I admire that courage. I don't know what working that hard for something is like. We have it so easy and we don't even appreciate it.
I totally agree.
Your personal health care is your responsibility. If she couldn't understand her doctors, she should have switched doctors or taken someone with her (4 ears are better than 2). You certainly don't want any misunderstandings or misinterpret anything your doctor tells you.
I, too, wish your friend well.
Totally agree
I would go because if not it sounds like there is something else for them to yell about. You were generous enough to give those plots to him. If he is not happy with it (Iam assuming because he wants to be buried next to her) then he can move her somewhere else and give you the deeds back. You offered to move your mom before but he didn't accept, his loss. Your mom has rested this for how long now just let her be. What is with people today!!
