Ann, Has he voiced any interest in participating in your business? If not, I am not sure I would "bail him out" by creating a job for him. That may not...
<He has no job yet, and I'm starting to sound like a broken record about how to get his arse out of bed and start LOOKING.> <Unschooling, "do whatever you feel...
Ann: I wish I had the problem of my kids living at home. My daughter moved to Fargo ND from CO. Too far in my opinion, but she is independent. We always ...
Good Morning. Ann, I feel your pain. My first child left home a year after graduating and has been on her own since. Number two, left, came back, left, came...
OK - a little follow up. After talking with a friend, she helped me see that not putting a boundary on my tolerance level was part of the problem. I told Scott...

Hi, my name's Robin, but most people on-line know me as Raisya. I'm a happily divorced mom of two in Austin, Texas, but basically retired from HSing at this...

I do companion work which doesn't pay very well, but I can usually be doing something else like crafts, book work, baby-sitting or teaching kids, ect. at the...
Sue - I'd be interested in companion work, have no particular desire to take up any kind of nursing. I'm more interested in a low-stress and satisfying job...

What are you all doing to make new friends? You and I are kinda opposite. When my kids were growing up, we lived out in the country and didn't have much money...
... Eileen, I sometimes think that about half my friends I've met online, many I have never met in person, but we've chatted so much I feel I know them better...
Hi Sue and Ann, et al, I live in the country, too, and that is part of the problem. I do not have kids that go to the local school; I don't attend the local ...
I, too, live about 50 miles from the boonies. My only neighbor, although a friend, has very different interest than mine. I have chosen to remain involved in...
