In Reply to: I am so worried. Anyone have this experience? My 5 year old son sm - Very normal family
This could be completely off the wall and hopefully like the other say it is a complete jealousy issue but I think you need to actually take it seriously, because as lame as this is, I was browsing on myspace... (yea im only 26! lol) but i came across some disturbing profiles... and it turns out there is a HUGE community of adults that LOVE to wear diapers and act like babies. I honestly thought it was a joke until you just kept clicking on all these different profiles which just led you to MORE profiles (dont know if you know how it works)... but it was like this whole diaper fetish. It really was gross to me... I know your child is only 5 years old but hopefully you can put an end to it while he's still young an impressionable. I really went back and forth about posting this at all cause I don't want to act like I'm being pessimistic or think this has ANYTHING to do with the future of your son... i just thought I'd let you know... sorry if i offended anyone!

What a scare!!
My dad was over here and I had an extra hamburger from Sonic. He was eating it and got choked on a pickle. I thought OMG What do I do? He was in the floor on his knees, red faced, gasping for air, and I went over and took the base of my palm and hit pretty hard between the shoulder blades. It came out. I need to learn the Heimlach (sp?). What a scary ordeal.
sorry, His speaking out against it would scare me too.

That's the part that would scare me (sm)
My daughter is grown, thank goodness. I don't have to deal with this decision. If I did have a daughter school age, I would be more concerned with the consequences years down the road from this vaccination. It is just too new, in my opinion, and Gov. Perry is trying to shove it down our throats. I would strongly object.
scare tactics
Their "logic" (sic)has been around for years. I'm an old hippie and when I was in college (a large university), every religious freak around said it was THE END because of our sinful ways. We can't change destiny...just trust God and live for each day at a time. Don't let them terrorize you & your family over something they have no way of knowing any more than you do.
Cities scare the poop out of me...
I don't even like to visit cities, much less live in one. I lived 20 minutes outside of Boston my whole life and NEVER visited it for funsies. I only went there as a kid for field trips, and to Logan Airport a few times as an adult. I have some sort of meltdown/panic disorder when it comes to traffic, tunnels, tall buildings, and angry people...which are plentiful in that neck of the woods. Everyone all hopped up on their fancy-pants Starbucks shouting all angry-like on their cell phones...gives me the heebs just thinkin' about it!
Yep, whole other food chain those cities are.
Since when have belittling and scare tactics
ever done anything except exacerbate/escalate this kind of situation. Will reiterate the obvious. You should be helping yourself and deal with your own abuse issues before trying to "help" someone else, if this is the best you can do. This is also coming from someone who has BTDT.
Scare tactics and the economy ? sm
 Anyone else experiencing people using the current economic crisis as an "end of the world" prediction? I would have used the "OTHER" board but some of these people are too "out there." We have a few members of our family scaring the heck out of the kids in the family that this is the "end" and you know the rest. Supposedly we're only going to be here until 2012 and then it's "all over" so they better give up their wordly ways and follow them. I'm so sick of it, I feel that this is the time for all of us to band together and ride out the storm. I'm tired of people trying to "steal" my kids' minds. How do you shut these people up? Some of them are on that "social" network, assembling the family together so we can all share our resources and band together for the big coming of the end. I'm just so very upset right now -- isn't it bad enough that we are struggling. I think things will get better as we get more and more into a stable financial picture. We were just living "too high on the hog" and things will get better. I don't think we're all going to perish. Why can't we just try to be happy and get through it? Why can't it be a new beginning instead of the saved vs. the unsaved and the "end" coming?
Americans are such suckers for SCARE tactics
imposed on us daily by the corporate media.
That's not to say don't be concerned and vigilant - just not to cave everytime they decide to scare us with propaganda.
WHAT is the school supposed to DO about "it" anyway?
In MHO, call your lawyer NOW... he is teaching your children to be afraid, overreact, and believe every scare tactic that comes down the pike.
Need advice - ex has pulled my kid out of school re MRSA scare
My son lives with his dad 500 miles away. It was his birthday today, he's 13 and in 8th grade. I called to wish him happy birthday. He said his dad had pulled him out of school due to paranoia about MRSA (staph infections) outbreaks. I asked him if there'd been any in his school, he said no, just some of the surrounding communities. He said his dad won't let him go back to school until the school "does something abou it". The ex got on the phone demanding I look up two vaccinations for it online and give my opinion "because I'm in the health field". I type radiology, for goodness sake, and even if I was familiar with the names of the drugs, it doesn't mean I'd know all about them just because I could spell them!
Upon researching this, it appears the chances of getting fatal MRSA are pretty slim, and I had much more chance getting it when I worked on site in the hospital than my son does (son does not play sports if he can keep from it). I think my ex is off the deep end, and I'm afraid I might have to take him to court (again) to force him to let the child go to school. His school is closed tomorrow so I'll have to wait until Monday to call them and see how long my son has actually been absent.
Anybody have any advice for me? How long should I give my ex to work through his paranoia before I call a lawyer (again)? Has anyone else taken their kids out of school over this?
it doesn't just scare you it scares the person you're in bed with too!!!
My boyfriend had these episodes where he would be falling asleep and then get real tense and start breathing heavy and fast... and i'd try to wake him... and it would take minutes. okay probably seconds... but it felt like forever.
then he would say that he was trying to open his eyes and speak, but couldn't, and describes what you are describing, with a few differences. I looked it up and found sleep paralysis. It sounds very much like this...
it only happens every once in awhile to him, but I sure get so scared when it happens. sounds silly, but it is freaky to see him tense up and know something is happening that i can't stop!!
