Feb 22 2010
Posted by Sally as Family Features, Family Life
We’re right smack in the middle of the Winter Olympics. Have your kids gotten into the spirit of it all yet? It saddens me that today, some kids would rather play sports via the PlayStation (or any other gaming console) than actually go outdoors and kick some butt. With the Winter Olympics going on, though, it might be a great time to show your kids just how fun actually playing sports is!
How do you do this? Simple: tune in to the broadcasts of the ...
I have always believed that getting bullied is NOT the fault of the child who is on the receiving end of the aggressive behavior. It is the same reasoning behind believing that there is no excuse for men raping or beating women.
According to a recent study, however, there are certain factors that contribute to a child being prone to being bullied by his peers. The study was led by Clark McKown from the Rush Neurobehavioral Center in Chicago. His team identified at least three problem ...

Dressing up as something scary or weird on Halloween is perhaps the most exciting thing about this holiday. It’s thus not a surprise that a lot of people say that Halloween is their favorite holiday among all the holidays in the western world. Aside from the dresses and costumes, children have become excited about face paint. Actually, even adults go all out when it comes to face paint!
But did you know that not all face paint products in the market are safe for use? ...
Can you imagine having to go to your kid’s school and deal with a disciplinary action against him? It’s probably not that hard to imagine for some, but what if your kid is only 6 years old? Is this something that is acceptable these days?
If you knew about Zachary Christie’s case, then you just might understand what his parents are going through. You see, little Zach had recently joined the Cub Scouts. And as you may know, you get to play with all these cool tools ...
Discrimination based on race or ethnicity is something that the average, socially-aware person does not find acceptable, right? Social awareness has reached such heights that practically everyone has been exposed to its concepts. Yet if you take a closer look, there are certain practices that seem to encourage racism.

Help Your Child Improve His Spelling Skills
Sep 20 2009
Posted by Sally as Family Features, Family Life
They say that Americans are some of the worst spellers in the world. Perhaps it is because English is not exactly the easiest language when it comes to spelling words. Then again, it might be that not everyone pays attention. Whatever the reason may be, there is no doubt that every responsible parent would want to help his child to do well in school – and part of that is being a decent speller. If your child is struggling with spelling, here are some things that you ...

Here are some activities that you can do this weekend – all of them either free or very affordable.

Everyone knows about the Duggars – the Arkansas family composed of 20 members: 2 parents and 18 kids.

Since then, their family has grown to a size that is not normally seen these days. The Duggars have attracted a lot of attention – they have their own web site and have even made numerous TV appearances.

Posted by Sally as Family Life, Lifestyle and Leisure
Do you think that you complain too much? Probably not. I have not really met a person who would actually say “yes” without thinking about the question (and his answer), but the chances are that you and I complain more than we would like to think we do. If you think about it, complaining seems to be have become quite a trend.
When was the last time you complained? What was it about? You may not realize it, but you probably complain a great deal.
