Am I being too tough on my 14 year old daughter?
My daughter got invited to the movies at the mall with some friends. I think its generally a good idea, but she had started to do things lately like smoking, being defiant, lying etc, and I honestly don’t trust her. She has always felt self concious and maybe being out with some good kids (I know them all) will be good for her. But, I’m not stupid and these good kids might not be as good and I’m afraid she will go back to smoking and who knows what else. All the parents agreed to let them go and we all agreed to drop them off at 6pm and pick them up when the movie ends which is at almost 10. I don’t feel comfortable leaving her there that long and want to pick her up at 9pm. My daughter initially agreed and after talking to one of her friends came back to kind of negotiate with me. I said ok 9:30 and she flipped out saying things like what’s another half hour, etc. I told her to quit while she was ahead and I needed to regain my trust in her. If this goes well she might end up having more liberties in the future. She kept arguing so I bought it back down to 9pm, then after more arguing I told she can’t go at all. Was I too tough? Am I being too overprotective?
Thank you everyone! I shouldve mentioned that the movie starts at 7:30 so they are going to grab some food at the mall food court before the movie. The movie ends at 9:46 (yes I checked everything!). I could pick her up at 9:45 but what if she doesn’t go to that movie? She could show me the stubs but what good would that do after the fact? She’s known to do things and then I find out about them when she’s already done it. I want to prevent it. She actually came to me a while ago and said ok 9pm. I told her I didn’t ask her to make that decision. But deep down I feel I should let her go. But then again that will mean its ok to go on a rampage to get what she wants. She’s my only girl and the boys weren’t this much trouble lol


No you arent. I wasnt even allowed to go to the movies without an adult at 14 lol. I think you’re doing the right thing because she should have agreed with you in the first place at 9:30. She caused herself not being able to go so its her fault. I think you did the right thing because shes been doing bad things lately.

I would let her stay till 10 just make sure your there early so you know if she was really at the movie. Watch her come out. She will never have to know you did that. If all the other parents said there kids could then I think she would be fine. You could also just go to a different movie that is playing and be there with her but don’t go to the same movie she would not like that. You have to let her do things and see how she does before you can trust her if she gives you another reason not to trust then be more strict with her.

My older son is going to be 10 in October 25

My middle child is going to be 8 in July 3

My younger child is going to be one in November 19

They all behave good,except for ten years old boy, but you aren’t been over protective, you child is out of control and you need to take control. Good job, I would said.
lovemykids | Jan 23, 2010


that’s fair
how about you don’t drive her anywhere at all until she stops smoking
Adam | Jan 23, 2010


Well I don’t think you should pick her up at 9:00 because you can’t just see part of a movie without the ending. I think you should let her go if you have talked to the other parents and you know that that’s exactly where she’s going. But what I would do is at about 8:30 or 9:00 call her unexpectedly. Don’t tell her you will check up on her, just do it. If she doesn’t pick up, then go to pick her up immediately to make sure she is at the movie theater and not lying about where she is going. And to make sure she simply just doesn’t turn her phone off, tell her specifically before she goes to set her phone to vibrate that way if she doesn’t pick up, she has no excuse.

Why won't my wifi booster work?
We have wireless internet in our house and it doesn’t reach all the rooms. Recently we bought a wifi booster in order to improve our wifi range, however it won’t work.

After screwing the aerial directly into the router, screwing the base into the router and having the aerial stand in the centre of the room, and screwing the aerial into one of the computers further away from the router, our wifi still remains the same.

We have a D-Link router and a D-Link wifi booster. What’s going wrong?


Have you configured the booster? I imagine you’d have to pair it to your particular network, otherwise it won’t know which router signal belongs to you. It won’t be able to figure it out itself.

There’s a chance that you might have to use the router config instead. Check the manuals for both.

Also, did you happen to buy a "RangeBooster" product, which is actually a separate router, and *not* a network extender?

“Then the speeches that I normally do are drying up because of the economic climate. So short of busking in Covent Garden there is quite seriously a sort of (question): ‘Where is the money going to come from?’ So the answer is I resuscitated the one-man show because I got a very, very generous offer from Norway. I was a little surprised until somebody told me they’d got the best economy in Europe because they are sitting on all that oil. So I’m getting paid twice for a performance what I get for a show in California. Good old Norwegians.”

A: “I’m afraid it’s because they are good. When (co-star and ex-wife) Connie (Booth) and I wrote them we took about six weeks to write each episode, which is unheard of. People who care a lot spend 10 days, most people do it in a week. But the fact is, we used to write 135 to 140 pages (per episode) … There was so much in the shows that people could watch them a lot of times because they would forget the things that are in them … And secondly, in the character Basil we nailed a certain kind of English lower-middle-class type who people are aware of and who, I think, does exist in quite a lot of people.”

Wait Until Dark (1967)

IMDB rating: 7.80

Plot: After an airplane trip, a young woman asks Susie’s husband, Sam, to keep a doll for her to avoid spoiling the surprise of her daughter’s gift. But the real reason is to avoid her partner, Harry Roat, whom she hopes to cheat of the drugs hidden in the doll. Harry discovers her treachery, murders her and leaves the body in Susie’s apartment, where he has tracked Sam and the doll. He concocts an elaborate plan, involving Mike and Carlino, small-time hoods, to get Susie, who recently lost her sight in a fire, to reveal the doll’s hiding place. They lure Sam away and take advantage of Susie’s blindness, posing as an old friend, a police detective, and a father-son pair of eccentrics. Susie eventually catches on and, with the help of her young neighbor, Gloria, shows everyone that she is indeed “a world-class blind lady.”

worried, some advice would be greatfull?
my partner and i are trying for a baby, i recently had a early miscarriage.
after having a light period i found out i was pregnant but i started stopping so was sent for a scan, scan comfirmed a miscarriage and the light brown spotting continued for abt a week which had gritty bits in it which i was told was the pregnancy tissue, the bleeding was in no way wat so ever heavy, it was jst like a end of a period n more like brown discharge.
well after having another blood test to confirm that my hcg levels have gone bk to normal i was told i could start trying again but waiting a month would be better.

i ovulated on the 18th of jan and intercourse happenes everyday from teh 16th to the 20th then it wa every other day,
my period isnt due till the 4th however i started spotting on very light brown on the friday nite which is 5-6 days b4 my period is due, it wasnt constant jst nw and again, it was like this until this morning it got a bit heaver so i put a pad on b4 going out jst incase. when i noticed an hr a go the pad had really dark almost black blood with lots of tiny clots in it, as i wiped more and more clots were there so i tried using a tampon to see how much more clots were there and only half would go in, it was as if it was blocked. so felt to see what it was and it was my cervix i could feel which is the lowest its ever been that i am aware of. i had a internexamination done on several occasions and doctors have all reported that my cervix was high and to the back!

whats does this sound like is happening?
has anyone had this?
should i see a doctor?
my lower tummy feels full which i can jst describe when i was pregnant with my son and it looks and feels to touch risen and swollen.


Your cervix does move around however, it should not be so low that you can’t fully insert a tampon. I would go to a doctor just to ensure there is no prolapse going on. Re the bleeding it sounds like you are getting your period and nothing to worry about. Good luck for next month!!

I have to ask you sever dumb questions about Belgium Flemish culture?
I have to ask you sever dumb questions about Belgium Flemish culture? Will most unwed mothers in Belgium make a father pay court ordered child support for 18 years, and try to prevent them from seeing their fathers, and interfere with access or visitation, and that their motives were punitive in nature, and not due to safety considerations.

I know that an unwed mother can file a paternity suit against a father to get child support and get a DNA test. This is the law in Belgium; I know this because I have a Belgium law book that is in English. Is this common yes or no?

I do not want any Americans answering my questions, only Belgium citizens who speak Dutch, German or French. Belgium is a different culture than the United States.

This is how it goes in the United States.

Access and Visitation Denial Three-quarters of divorced fathers surveyed maintain that their ex-spouses have substantially interfered with their visitation rights.

Is galvanized wire poisonous to birds?


Yes. Galvanized wire is coated with zinc, which can cause heavy metal poisoning.

You can use galvanized if you throroughly rub down the wire twice a week with a damp rag (preferably with a bit of vinegar in it). The zinc itself is unlikely to be ingested, but like aluminum, zinc oxidizes easily to form a coating that keeps more oxygen from getting in. That coating of zinc oxide is easily ingested by birds, so you need to remove it. Which means that after a while you’ll have worn through the galvanizing.

Quick links and chains are also often galvanized. You should avoid them, too.

Plot: Samantha Sherwood has worked with the well-known director Jonathan Stryker on all his major films. She naturally assumes she has been given the title role in his latest venture, “Audra”. He tells her that she nn needs to do some background research on the part, so arranges to have her committed to an asylum (as Audra is a former psychiatric patient). She goes along with this, not realising that he intends to leave her there indefinitely and audition six young women of various professions for the part instead. She finally manages to escape, and returns to the spooky old mansion where the auditions are taking place. But who is causing the disappearances of the young hopefuls?? Is it Samantha? Stryker? Or is one of the actresses willing to kill for the coveted part?? Just who is the killer behind the old-hag mask???

Yes, of course. But you shoudn”t worry about that.
During their flight to USA, foreigners get complete instructions about avoiding being a communist or a terrorist if they want to be allowed to leave the plane alive, and how to choose the proper curtain and wipe politely (for example, it is generaly considered quite rude to display your buttock while you wipe it - but this rule doesn’t apply to the west coast).

how to use daredevil to make a sentence?
meaning of daredevil:(noun)one who procedes you in time


John is a daredevil.

M R | Jan 30, 2010


A daredevil believe, "when in doubt, gas it".
- or -
Only a daredevil can beat my speed record.
- how about -
Daredeviel’s push the envelope of the human body and mind in the pursuit of finding the maximum extreems humans can induer.

Joke: Daredevil Jon got everyones attention when he said, " Hey ma, watch dis".
Desert Caretaker | Jan 30, 2010


Sit him down at a table and say, "make a sentence lest I beat you with a stick."
Fluffy | Jan 30, 2010


A daredevil is someone who goes in for reckless or potentially dangerous behaviour, not someone who precedes you in time. An example sentence would be "My cousin was a total daredevil when young and so was always injuring himself".

Someone who precedes you in time is a predecessor, ancestor, antecedent or forebear.
Dando | Jan 30, 2010


I’ve always been up for daredevil stunts like that!
punarvasu | Jan 30, 2010


Your definition of daredevil is wrong. Using your definition, a sentence would be:
I did research on all the daredevils in my family, and constructed my family tree.
ElaineGSD | Jan 30, 2010


The motor cyclist performed some amazing daredevil stunts.
Elisa | Jan 30, 2010


First daredevil does not mean one who preceded you in time. Or it is a meaning I’ve never heard.

It means one who takes risks in a show off way or that is how I understand it. Look on Wikipedia to check your meaning as I will do when I get off here. Evil Keneval (spelling?) was a daredevil. One who walks a tightrope over Niagara Falls is a daredevil. The Great Houdini was a daredevil as well as a great magician.
