Crate train them ASAP, the younger you teach them that their crate is “their” space and reward them with rawhides, the better.

This again?! Whenever she was in the right, CPS didn’t falsely accuse her of anything and when she was in the wrong, they got involved, I’m not seeing the problem here. After reading this series I actually have a lot more respect and trust in CPS than I used to.

My mother worked for CPS for over 35 years and she always said that it was their job to follow up on reports. In all of the situations this article mentions where there was no wrongdoing, CPS came, investigated, determined nothing was wrong and left. The woman in this case got into drugs when she had a one year old…

Let’s just talk logistics: there is zero way a teenager with a box of Nice & Easy dye could go from blue to blonde, especially with fresh blue dye. Zero. Zip. Not happening. Anyone who has ever dyed their hair ever would know this.

#MeToo just makes me tired, because as usual, it’s women doing all the work to raise awareness. Wake me up when men decide to take action.

Anyone just have this experience?

Do you remember the story about how the kid was writing a paper with headphones on and there was writing all over the house that said “LOOK AT ME”? It still haunts me and that was I think like 3 years ago.

Much like The Beastie Boys his lyrics may have evolved as he’s matured. Just because he spouted misogynist bullshit at 20 doesn’t make him one currently. (I honestly don’t know anything about the current content of his lyrics.) Full disclosure: I’m from Detroit where he places just behind Bob Seger as our most low key…

So you know how people like to brag that ‘The book was better than the film’?

They don’t even need Jane to write her poorly-thought-out responses. Just print the three letters and let all of us fight it out in the comments.

Agreed. Check out Dear Prudence over on Slate, much better IMO

Last week I complained that this column was too much “list all the obvious possibilities and offer no real insight or direction” and met a lot of people strenuousy disagreeing.

I love really short hair. I have dreams about the day I lose enough weight to rock a pixie cut without looking like a marble perched on a beach ball. (I have a really small head.)

I’ve spent the last 5 years of my career very involved in DV education & many aspects of DV (prosecution, advocacy, training, etc.). I’ve read the articles in this series, so I’m familiar with the chosen format. However, I’m super disappointed in this discussion. This is an incredibly important topic. Knowledge and…

Lush is easily my favorite band from that era. Spooky in particular is perfect from start to finish. I’ve always loved how Miki and Emma’s vocals almost became a separate instrument layered among the guitars, bass, and drums. By instrument I mean, that their lyrics were at times indecipherable and just added an…

OMG I have not listened to Lush in far too long. Admittedly I discovered them through playing their single “De-Luxe” on Rock Band 2, I caught up on their discography quickly though and Spooky and Split are both top-notch shoegaze. Apparently I now have some catching up to do with Frankie Rose as well because this song…

Are you ok with no giving a shit about other kids that may not be lucky enough to have you as a mom and need help and services? That is the question here.

That’s fair. And it is also fair to say that she has faced more consequences for stealing products than have perpetrators of rape and murder. Most people committ offenses they can be charged for; from jaywalking, speeding, theft of services to assault when you’re slap fighting your friend at the bar. Are these folks…

Who does she think she is? It’s not like she’s a police officer; actually killing people with impunity and then getting a Go Fund Me account. Praise God they threw the book at her. We all know how DeKalb County really wants to avenge the wrong that has be committed here. How will Walmart recover from *almost* losing …
