maybe, if neglected,

In Reply to: That's the problem I have with - sm - Oh Dear!

the child has learned to get attention by lying and concocting wild stories. I would suspect that this scale of neglect would open up the possibilities of abuse by others in proximity whether it was detectable by examination or not -- some forms of abuse will not leave a physical mark on the child you know...

neglected pets
...funny you should bring that up. I have been so
busy with school and work, my normally sweet cockatiel birds have been monsters!! I have a large office and a couple of months ago they decided they wanted to stay there so I moved in there. What a pain! They sense when I'm stressed and rushing. That's when the screaming starts. I had to leave my office for a half hour, and when I came back, the new telephone cord was chewed off, my papers were chewed and shredded, and one bird was shredding my reference books!!! They are so demanding. If I don't pay attention to then for a half hour before I start working, I will pay dearly!!! But I do so love them!

And the part you neglected to copy
