My first response is to get the strong stuff right off. Then again that does mean a lot of side effects which not everyone wants. Was he a podiatrist? If so I would take his word. I have seen a friend's case that's similar where the body started healing itself, the section of toenails were alread dead, so off they went.

My son is seventeen. I'll try them out on him with your recommendation.

I only read the first one, but my youngest loves them and I figure he's reading.

Right now I"m listening to David G. Woolley. I'm really quite enjoying his work.

Browsing through the forum and saw this discussion. I saw these books around and checked Amazon and saw a lot of reviews saying they weren't child appropriate and pretty filthy. How bad would you say they are? The orgasmic staff does concern me for reading stuff for my son.

I just found out that the Boy Scouts of America are separate from the LDS Church! And here I've been thinking the Church created the BSA...

Well, you know the type of woman stake prezs' wives are.

I guess we are learning what Vort likes...

This sounds gossip on the part of your mother, no offense. Perhaps this woman attends her sporting events in the same uniform and had to hit the store on the way back. I also feel panicking over how long till the garment is put back on is ridiculous.

Also, if you are committed to this relationship, you can seek our your own support group. They exist.

Bingo. While you two are still in the dating phase (not married, not even engaged) the devoted commitment of a marriage does not apply, at least not as concretely. Now if you were his wife and he had this problem and was willing to work at it, yes, by all means, stay married to him and give him all the love and support he needs and then some. Right now that's also a fine thing to give him... but only if you're sure about marrying him. It's no good to stay in a miserable dating relationship just because you don't think it would be fair to leave him. It's not fair to you to stay in a miserable relationship.

Simply go for moderation. There's a lot you can get by with in small amounts, though in my experience I seemed to have better luck conceiving with no caffeine consumption verses moderate caffeine consumption. Also, try to get some full-fat dairy in.

People might marry non-members for a respectful and loving relationship. I don't think the Church is against that persay. Children is a choice between a couple and God. But I don't think the Church is going out of its way to encourage non-member and/or no-children marriages.

So the conference talk (I can't recall who gave it) on preparing children to be spiritually independent really hit home for me. I really do think our family situation has been improving, but that talk was so what I needed to hear.

This is exactly what you should be doing!

You cannot be in an abusive relationship and figure you aren't "working hard enough" to improve the abusive partner.

I don't mind it when it goes over. It's kind of relaxing.

This is exactly why I have trouble dismissing all transgendered individuals as crazy. Yes, the spirit is either male or female, but human bodies are notoriously imperfect. As a parent, I would probably want my child to grow up with some sexual identity, but... what if I got it wrong?

classylady, I know exactly what you're talking about. In fact, we might have it in storage... my husband hordes random junk.

14. Good golly.

I guess Im one of the few that don't consider this a big deal and if your sister is a ditz like you say, I can see the humor in it. If she slowed down in order to see, that's smart though she should have pulled over or stayed at the friend's. But slowing down isn't necessarily dangerous. If I saw someone going really slow, yeah, I'd probably call the cops, but not out of fear of my life. From what the OP said it sounds like this girl gets it. If we spent all our time worrying about what could have happened we would be wasting a lot of time. I'm curious to know if the accusations continued after she passed all the tests. I see how that could be justified to get someone you really do suspect of high/drunk driving to confess, but after awhile you should probably look at other factors.

Jelly beans. lots and lots of jelly beans.

I've often wondered if we as humans have more or less the same amount of hardships, but they appear so differently. People may have been hardier back then, but it was part of their lives. If we had been raised in the same conditions, we would be about the same. Did they think of themselves as particularly hardy? Its the emotional turmoil that makes things harder for many ofus. But that's why we have that atonement. it's not just for our own sins, but anything that does cause us pain.

Part of me hopes I did break it up. I like the boy well enough most days (though this certainly has clouded my opinion), but my daughter has confessed a few times lately she feels she is mainly with him because they have a child together. maybe this will lead to an actual break-up.

I "got around" as a kid and had my first daughter out-of-wedlock at 17, so I don't know if I have the same perspective as you, but I can understand the nervous thing. I don't want to tell you to assume it will all go swimmingly or that it will be horrible, because I don't know what it will be for you. Read the mentioned books, ask questions, let your man know you're nervous, and just take it one step at a time.
