Parenting & Pregnancy > Child Discipline Strategies Dealing with difficult children: How to get your child an attitude adjustment

Giving a strong willed child and attitude adjustment is a challenging part of parenting. Most often a strong-willed child is also a brilliant manipulator. The first part of giving your child an attitude adjustment is giving yourself one. Always keep in mind that you are dealing with a child not an adult. Although his vocabul...

Religion & Spirituality > Bible Study David's purpose in the Bible

David's purpose in the Bible actually has many aspects; David shows us God's ability to bring the lowly to greatness for His glory, David shows us God's power through faith, David shows us the true meaning of friendship, and most importantly David shows us a God who is just and merciful with our humanness. David, as a child ...

Celebrations & Holidays > Celebrations & Holidays (Other) Your most meaningful family traditions

I have seven wonderful children ranging in age from 20-6. Of all our family traditions Christmas brings my most favorite. Three traditions that surround Christmas come to mind and all carry equal importance. In our dining room I decorate the walls with homemade decorations. The walls are literally lined top to bottom with th...

Who will walk you down the aisle? For most women, a wedding day is something dreamed about from as early as Kindergarten. Your heart explodes with love as you dream of that magical day.

Relationships & Family > Family Dysfunction The effects of fatherless families on boys

Unfortunately, too many of us know first hand the effects of a fatherless family on boys. I am no exception. I am a single mother of seven wonderful children, four of them boys. I have learned to rough house, to climb, to throw a football, and to think like a boy (that was a trick), but it is not truly enough! Two of my boys...

Parenting & Pregnancy > Fertility & Infertility Issues Should the "morning after pill" be used to prevent pregnancy?

Preventing pregnancy with the morning after pill? This question brings such sorrow to my heart, for so many reasons. The pain is so deep I am not sure where to start. Perhaps the words "prevent pregnancy" is the proper beginning. Pregnancy must be prevented when conception would occur, not after the fact. Therefore the "morn...

Relationships & Family > Dating Psychology Male stereotyping of women: Can we eliminate it?

It doesn't start right away, and it's not all men, but it is a problem. Male stereotyping of women, it plagues our men. It's a learned behavior and it's fed by our society.

Celebrations & Holidays > Valentine's Day Valentine's Day: Does the expense of the gift equal the amount of love?

While I don't actually think Valentine's Day should be celebrated (any more than Grandparents Day or Children's Day or even Mother's or Father's Day); it is nonetheless celebrated and commercialized. It has therefore been transformed from a day to celebrate love, to a day of proving your love or (in the case of many teenage ...
