I enjoy watching Cesar Millan's show. Pit bulls are one of his favorite dog types. His have wonderful personalities because Cesar understands them and how to communicate with dogs of any type, and especially those with a reputation for being difficult.
I recently saw a great episode about a man who was terrified of dogs. He'd been attacked by a dog in Mexico - a pit bull. Cesar taught him how to read what dogs were saying and how to broadcast calm leadership, even to a dog behind a fence many feet away from you. That man was very happy to overcome his fear, and Cesar was able to help his family adopt a dog from Cesar's pack that had the right energy for their lifestyle.

Education in America.....sm
I'm still shaking my head over this one, folks. A member of our local school board, when asked about a child whose parents were told was failing all classes but in reality was only failing one said, "Well, a child can be behind their peers but still passing."
I don't know about you all, but in my day and time of growing up, if you had a C or higher average in a class you were passing and parents weren't told the child was failing.
The Education of Little Tree (sm)
I don't watch TV much, but found on a Google search and on Amazon

Education of Little Tree?
I did not see the View, but I do own this book and loved it. It supposedly was an autobiography by Forest Carter, but turns out he made the whole thing up, which ended up being a really disappointed me as I found the characters so real. I live in the mountains of WNC and am part Cherokee. Good to hear that your kids are into tribal life.
Education of Little Tree
GREAT BOOK!! I passed my book around to my friends and they all loved it too. My aunt even bought a couple as gifts to others. Easy read and very enjoyable.
Education on Pitbulls
Know the FACTS: visit http://www.thetruthaboutpitbulls.com/
According to the American Canine Temperament Testing Association 82.5% of the American Pitbull Terriers that took the temperament test passed, compared to a 77% passing rate for all breeds on average. Pitbulls have achieved the fourth highest passing rate of all 122 breeds tested.
Wait, you don't know about your husband's education???? WOW.
That's really strange to me. I knew where my husband went to school and what he went to school for the day I met him! I guess it just seems very strange to me that you don't seem to really know anything about his past. I just don't understand how 2 people can have a relationship and know practically nothing about each other.
Or better yet - how about we provide s*x education in school, sm
not just *abstinence* education, and we focus on the emotional aspects of having a physical relationship? Next, how about we de-sexualize advertising? When was the last time you could find modest clothing, not hootchie mamma stuff for your kids in the stores?
Time for another diabetes education class.
That's why most doctors send their diabetics to classes - because the rules have changed from their pre-diabetic days.
An Individual Education Plan (or Program)

Parents DO NOT owe kids college education.
When DD started college we paid,,,, at first. But she did NOTHING to help herself. From her part time job, all her money went to nails, clothes, meals out with friends, etc. She did nothing about getting scholarships. After 1st year, I said I wouldnt pay anything else. DH continued to help her. She did apply for scholarship thru DH work and got $2000. Of that money, she ended up dropping a class paid for with that money, cause it was too early (8:00am). Bottom line, she did nothing towards finishing school, in fact, quit going, did not increase work hours. I stopped giving her ANY money at that point. She ended up marrying Marine boyfriend and is now working at Dollar Store. These were HER choices, instead of completing her teaching degree, of which she only had 2 years to go. I told her why should I spend my hard earned money on her when she was doing absolutely nothing to help herself. She knew if she was making an effort to her future I would help her, but not if she wasnt doing anything for herself.
The answers to your questions are and there is coed sex education where I live, my goodness!
Yes I am female and yes I do have a female daughter. Again, what I really am saying is no way should you get an excuse for something that normal like a period, because IF all the females start having periods at the same time, no swimming. Sounds like making a mountain out of a mole hill. More important things to do with our time than club a teacher over the head when probably the kids that age talk about more sexual matters than a period. Kids are much more mature than these posting are giving them credit for and lots have had sex already by this age.
