You are fortunate to have a trend towards hands on, creative learning in your neighborhood schools. Hopefully, that will trend nationally, too.
Thanks for sharing the article and video (finally had the chance to…"
Lynne Kenney replied to Janet Lansbury's discussion Encouraging Children To Be Creative, Innovative, Original Thinkers"Janet,
I really appreciate your thoughtful posts. One trend where we live is more in class instruction that is activity/demonstration/participation based. This makes for creative learners as early as 4th grade. Kids do everything from dissect…"

Tina Hickman replied to Janet Lansbury's discussion Not a happy topic, but important... My kind, successful, generous friend is a child molester."As someone who has been sexually molested, I understandably have trust issues.

I had the shock of my life two weeks ago when I discovered that a long time friend, my chiropractor, is a child molester. I'm embarrassed to say that I've been naive -- never really believed child sexual abuse could touch my life. I am learning such disturbing things...the vast majority of molestation cases go unreported because children either can't or don't talk about it! Many just don't know how. How can we better protect our children? I have a lot of questions, not many answers...would…See More

- Hi Janet - I'm wondering if you'd like to be featured as our TwitterMom of the Month for November. I know you've been a featured contributor here for quite awhile, but maybe we should introduce you more widely to our membership. Let me know what you think -- thanks! :)

- Each day that we thoughtfully make choices about our behavior and our attitudes, we offer ourselves as examples to others-examples of strength.

Just stopping by to say, "hello" :) I haven't been at Twitter Moms for a while because I have been getting everything ready for the launch of my 'The C.H.A.M.P. Within' book. It has been a lot of work, but the paperbacks are here and I am
EXTREMELY excited. While I was waiting to get published, I created the trailer for the coordinating Teen Reality Show and am now featuring successful single parents and supportive people in my new video blog series called Heroes At Home TV.
I have just posted the 1st video here at Twitter Moms - http://www.twittermoms.com/video/heroes-at-home-tv-1st-video - please check it out and let me know what you think.
Our mission is to reach as many parents as possible, therefore your feedback is extremely important to the success of this program.
I am also interested in learning what's new in your life - family, work, programs - I look forward to your stopping by my page and letting me know how you are doing!
Blessings!
