me: "Nolan I don't want to see you do that again!"

Nolan: "Then don't look at me mom!"

I am sorry you feel this is a silly contest, but those who use mommytalk on a day to day basis know we are not going to let one mistake ruin the intergriety of Mommytalk.  The truth is Mommytalk just started having some great contest on a regular basis- as with all new things there is bound to be bumps.  They are trying to remedy the situation, without disregarding the winner- there is more fun and prizes to be had. I think this way is more then fair- saying this as a contest participant that had some problems too!

Mommytalk is just not about contests it is about a community of moms and dads coming together and helping each other out, the contests are just a cherry on the already sweet sundae!

Bye bye don't let the door hit you....

I am sorry ladies- you came here with the intent on playing one contest and complain.  Don't interact and basicially insult us well I will be blunt And say "Go to Hell " Please Somebody erase all this interaction because all Fawn is a mean woman,

and ps because of Mommytalk I run a blog page.  Mommytalk has been a helping hand along the way.  No I am not some desperate housewife- never have been! Now thanks to mommytalk I am now making money at home doing something I have a passion for!

THANK YOU TO ALL MY AWESOME FRIENDS AT MOMMYTALK!

Yes do brag- that's one of the best things about being a mom.  It might be a good idea to start your DD in a preschool.  I say this because an Occupational Therapist told me the importance of having children, with possible high IQs, into social peer situations as soon as possible.  As they get older the difference they have might becaome a stumbling block in social interaction with their peers. 

Have you tried a Hook on Phonics or getting ready to read system?

It is bad enough that children can be cruel enough to each other, now a teacher is encouraging it!  My son has special needs and I fear, as he enters kindergarten next year, is that he might suffer socially.

Shame on the school too.  Should we accept the fact that a child was in a class where the teacher was not properly educated on dealing with a special need.  With more understanding of autism and other learning disabilities are teachers getting the training they need to better deal with disabilities?

As a parent I am heavily involved with my sons education.  I am in constant contact with his teachers, OT and speech.  I am in no way saying this mom wasn't involved, what I am saying is that as a parent we are the first line of defense for our children and their educational needs.
