I don't know, all I have read have been rather inconclusive. I have got to say

however that if a complete stranger (to me) came up to me and started telling me

off for using my mobile phone around my children I would NOT take to it kindly.

I get really annoyed when strangers come up to me and start telling me how to

behave about stuff that is really none of their business. Like when Phoebe was

coming up 2 we had gone to Kingston for the morning and had breakfast in Mac

's When we left there Phoebe had a harsh brown in her hand and was happily

munching it about 5 mins down the street this " little old dear " started

lecturing me about how I should and should not feed my children. Stuff like that

really annoys me as these people don't know me from Adam and they simply decide

they know everything..

Sorry not a swipe at your daughter (as it isn't me she had told off LOL) but had

it been me I would have been furious (and probably also gone on here to complain

LOL)

& expecting a Christmas delivery...

My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you

start.

So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake.

I feel better already.

mobile phone emissions

After being harangued by Tammy and her DH Allan about the dangers of

mobile phone emissions,(they equated it to smoking) I did a bit of a

google searching but failed to find any definitive answers on how

dangerous it really is. There seemed to be equal evidence either way.

Since I have a teenager who spends a large amount of time with a

phone next to his head, and is unlikely to cut down unless presented

with definitive proof and warnings, does ANYONE really know?

I have tried warning him in the past but he, like so many youngsters,

just shrugs off this kind of thing. I'm lucky that he doesn't smoke

or do drugs.

Oh I quite agree. Tammy needs to get her brain in gear before she

opens her mouth sometimes. She has her heart in the right place and

always means well but she never was my brightest kid . Yelling

like she did at Yeshaya was *not* a good idea, all it achieved was to

alienate him from her. He has no intention of going anywhere near her

for the next hundred years.

I go and visit Tammy most Sabbath afternoons as she lives within a

five mn walk (as opposed to DD1 who lives a good 20 mns walk away).

Sometimes Tammy can be great company, but sometimes she's on some kind

of crusade and she'll spout a lot of rubbish and upset me and I'll go

home feeling really depressed.

Out of all my girls, Tavya, who is the second youngest, seems to be

the best one for saying exactly the right thing at the right time and

being bright and sensible. If I am down or upset she's the best one

to talk to. DD1 Sara is very sensible and bright, but has her

father's offhand attitude to others' distress. She'd as likely say

" oh well, get over it, " than say something comforting and cheering.

It's not her being unfeeling, it is literally her attitude to life.

She very seldom shows her innermost feelings.

Of course, some self-help books would say that what you have there is

actually a DS not a DD :-)

(DH has spent several hours today definitely being from Venus and me

from Mars - and he is one of the few men I know for whom the Mars

description is useful.)
