    Cassy Janine wrote a new post, HOW TO DEVELOP CHILD’S LANGUAGE 7 years, 8 months ago

    Lately, I was scanning my notes during my college days and I found an interesting topic regarding parenting and child development. Below are the questions and the answer of my interviewee when my instructor […]

    • Our daughter grow up surrounded by matured people. I instructed our helper who also is her nanny because me and my hubby are both at the office the whole day, not to baby talk with her.

      Of course she started to be able to talk by those syllables first , Mama and Papa. But what I remembered is her for not long being able to talk straight already meaning no more those like twisted tongue.

      I think that will really happen if all of us will always talk as we talk not baby talk just so the toddler can understand us. It’s actually one way of teaching our babies outgrow their baby talk fast.

    • Parenting has its own challenges. Today the children are very intelligent, shrewd and communicative. One has to be very careful before promising them anything as once you make your promise they latch on to it. They keep reminding you that you did not keep up your promise that registers very well in their minds. Parents have to spend more time with their children but at the same time have to be stern where they are supposed to be and see that the children become independent in their lives.

      One must try his or her best to see that the child gets the best and has happy memories of his or her childhood. Childhood is the foundation based on which the personality of the child is formed. So due care has to be taken that the child gets the support required. Agreed one cannot give all things at all times and the same has to be told to children and they should be made aware of that. Once they understand that concept they will be wise in money matters.

    Cassy Janine wrote a new post, WOMEN’S SELF DEFENSE IS NECESSARY 7 years, 8 months ago

    When we watch televisions, read our newspapers, and browse our nets, there are increasing numbers or cases about women who are maltreated by men. This situation gives awareness that it is important for women to […]

    • Women who work night shifts should be more aware of such safety tips; like what you had said, they should at least carry a pepper spray, a stun gun, a long umbrella, to ward off potential attackers. They can also carry a whistle to call the attention of other people, or a burglar alarm attached to her bag which can drive away those bad elements.

      Learning martial arts, or keeping fit and healthy is also a plus.

    • Yes, self defense and presence of mind are very important for women in today’s world. One has to be alert the moment one walks out of the house till the time one reaches her house after going out may be for studies or for work or any other reason. The potential attackers generally try and figure out who is vulnerable after studying them and their movements well and after making sure that one can get something which they want out of them. If someone knows self defense and uses the same the first reaction of the attacker is he is shocked and taken aback as he would not have expected this from the potential victim as it is like a bolt from the blue.

      Once this happens their confidence level fall a bit and they become jittery unless there are many. It is better the woman after doing this immediately shout or scream for attention or help from other passersby that will further instill fear in these people and they will usually retreat and runaway. The woman has to see her safety and see that she reaches a safe place before calling for the police if required.

    • I do agree of Women’s Self Defense, to be very necessary. Women are faced with dangerous situations on a daily basis. Women have to always be vigilant about their surroundings. There have been women who have been robbed, killed, raped, etc. Therefore, it is important for women to learn self defense to protect themselves from harm.

      There are classes on learning self defense for women to be taught how to defend themselves in many ways. Besides, in my opinion, learning self defense is also great as an exercise. Learning self defense will definitely keep you in shape.

      It is important for self defense to be a part of a women’s life. Developing the energy for accomplishing the teachings of self defense is mandatory in today’s society.

      Sometimes women are placing themselves in dangerous situations, unknowingly or knowingly, and not even realizing it until it is too late. That is why women need to be observant about their surroundings. Self Defense is a good tool for women to have and learn!

    Kris posts at least twenty times a day on Facebook.  Bits of a story, reactions to a current event, mentions of his past or his family’s past.

    • I agree, one has to be cautious in posting personal matters, photos,etc. because there are so many scammers, thieves, waiting for a clue. It is better to spend time on writing/blog sites like Literacybase.com where your effort and time are compensated.

      • It is so logical one can’t imagine how anyone could miss the chance of writing here, getting comments, and earning… but some people are born stupid.

    • Had he tried , he would love it here because a long post about a minimum of 500 words can earn him .22 while a shorterone , minimum of 300 words, can earn him $.15 . If he is industrious and have lots of time on the net, he can hit more than the minimum amount for the monthly payout.

      Anyway, some people really would snob a writing site at once, because they don’t know yet that writing can give you fulfillment and friends here at LB. Fulfillment, because you got paid and you earn a lot of friends.

      Maybe you should show him your proof of payment. 🙂

    • Same thing I did. I sent Kris two messages about this site… and he ‘doesn’t have time’ When something bad happens to him on Facebook, he’ll learn

    @lovern Looks like you people need to exert pressure on your authorities to lay stronger roads, may be through social media, as well as through your elected representatives.
    It is a fact that in many developing nations, including India there is big corruption in infrastructure projects and sub-standard material is often used to make more profits.

    I also have read “Surely you are joking Mr Feynman” way back in 1995, the year I moved to college from school.
    I too have read some serious and non-fiction books, but I have more of a liking for fiction and thrillers.
    By the way I am also involved in writing a story series on LB.

    I did wrote blog on this topic earlier on different sites(I think on Blogjob), but this is a question that still comes to my mind.
    What do you prefer- a book or Novel, or its Screen adaptation– Movie adaptations would perhaps be the word, but some Novels are also adapted for TV Sops.

    First one was “Da Vinci Code” which I read in 2005. Dan Brown too is a good story-teller, but his works tend to be a bit longer and a bit boring in some places.

    There are many men who are captured by much younger women.  For some reason these men don’t own mirrors, but have fat bank accounts.

    • Mostly of those that I have heard of about men marrying very much younger than them has the same story.

      The young woman would shop no end at the expense of the old man. The old man cannot refuse the wife because he knows it’s all that can make the woman happy.

      Sad that men would be in such a situation.

      Oftentimes when they die the wife will again remarry, this time a man of her age.

      That’s the sad reality of older but rich men, they are just wanted for their wealth. And oftentimes, not only will he provide for the wife but for the whole family of the woman.

    • I’ve know older men who see younger women. They think it makes them look Cool and they in there silly heads feel younger at heart. So silly that younger woman is only using you for ur wallet. So u spend spend to keep her chasing after u but trust once ur money is gone she will be off to her next idiot. Tried to explain this to a couple men and of course they find listen.

    • It is a common scenario, and one would think if the young woman was deeply in love with the oldie, but maybe in his deep pocket only!

      • It is very hard. Firstly, the person is the age of your father. Unless you have ‘daddy complex’ it feels wierd. Second, what do you talk about? Take a man of fifty… he can sit and discuss incidents that happened forty years ago which impacted his life. She wasn’t alive, she doesn’t know… So talk about what?
