If you homeschool, one of your challenges is to provide the good parts of a public education without the drawbacks. One of the drawbacks of public education is the reliance on rote, boring methods to teach children important things. You can go above and beyond the norm and provide a classroom in French that keeps kids engaged with what they're learning. One of the best ways to provide this is to incorporate music into the lessons....more
The furor has died down since US citizens debated whether or not partial-birth abortions were barbaric torture, or necessary medical procedure. The one thing that both sides seemed to agree on was that late-term abortions were rare. As it turns out, not only are they probably not rare, but statistics are being withheld from the American people by the abortion clinics.Essentially there are two reliable organizations which attempt to gather statistics on abortion. The CDC (which is a federal organization) and the Alan Guttmacher Institute (AGI). Both admit they do not have good stats on gestational age.According to AGI in "The Limitations of US Statistics on Abortion", "Extrapolating from unpublished data for 14 states compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), it is possible to estimate that two-thirds of these abortions were performed at 21-22 weeks. After 26 weeks, the number of abortions nationwide is estimated at 320; given the uncertainty of the data, however, the number could be as high as 600."That's a huge discrepency. In fact, they are admitting that there may be twice as many late-term abortions taking place as estimated. And note only 14...more

Engaging teens into Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is sometimes seen as a negative parenting style but contrary to many beliefs, it has more advantages over negative effects.MMA is composed of numerous fighting styles that have been around for hundreds of years. These fighting styles are called disciplines for a reason, and that is because they promote self-discipline and control over emotions and impulsivity. Fighting styles like karate and judo put emphasis on control. All these martial arts styles such as kick boxing, Muay Thai, and wrestling also provide good self-defence skills.Mixed martial arts (MMA) in its current form, is a relative newcomer to the world of mainstream sports. Drawing from the combined knowledge of boxing, wrestling, Brazilian jujitsu (BJJ), and other martial arts, MMA is the world's fastest growing professional sport. Engaging teens in sports helps them channel their energy into more positive areas. Some teens diagnosed with ADHD have made great progress upon engaging in sports such as MMA because their hyperactivity is allocated to a productive activity. Researches have also shown that ADHD-diagnosed teens have increased focus after engaging in physical...more
