My 7 yr. old son is having a lot of trouble with his reading and spelling in school. He is below grade level in this subject and just can't seem to catch on. His father and I did extremely well in school. Any idea what could be causing this delay? Have you had him tested for learning disabilities such as dyslexia and sequencing disorders? There could be absolutely nothing wrong, either. Some children learn differently; auditory vs. verbal learners, etc. It would be worth a conference with the teacher, and perhaps a request for some special testing.

It's better to bite the bullet and go find out what the status is. Just my opinion, and advice.

I have a pain problem due to herniated discs, and have been using vicodin Es 4- 5 times a day. A friend of mine just gave me a 15mg oxycodone to try, should I take the whole thing or split in half? You shouldn't take it at all. It's important not to take someone else's prescription med. In this case, it's a different formulation of pain reliever, and your doctor may have had a reason to choose Vicodin instead of Oxycodone. Vicodin is hydrocodone plus acetaminophen. Oxycodone is oxycontin plus acetaminophen. At the bare minimum, at least check with a pharmacist...

Do you agree? No, I disagree. In fact, I disagree with how relaxed the standard for nonsense has become. Lots of flagrant CRAP that used to be rejected now makes it through. I wish Answerbag would go back to at least attempting to be a knowledge base, and thus a helpful resource, rather than just a free-for-all chatboard. JMHO, of course.

Did Mary conceive Jesus through IVF, that explains Virginity I can understand if you don't believe it, and respect that it is your right to feel that way. Your disbelief, however, does NOT give you the right to ridicule someone else's belief. I do believe in the sinless conception of Jesus, and therefore find your question offensive, cruel and utterly tasteless.

What do you think of New York governor David Patterson having only been sworn in a couple of hours earlier, then admitting to having an extramarital affair for several years? (Then his wife announced her affairs!) I'm glad that he got it out of the way, so he can get to the business of governing the state. I rather liked the "pre-emptive strike." It saves the nasty buggers (the press) from digging around in dirt, so they can spend their time on stories we actually care about.

If you have your child(ren) baptized in, say, a Methodist church, the Catholic church will recognize your children as baptized Christians (though still not as Catholic.)

Whats the name of a kitchen utensil that boils water in like 60 seconds? It's like a plastic pitcher with a heating element inside. I've used one before, and I can't figure out what the "official name" for one is. The old fashioned name was "hot pot." Now they're usually called electric tea kettles. A microwave oven could accomplish that, too, depending on the wattage of the oven and amount of water being heated.

Answer to:
Are men really bigger babies than women when they are sick? I think it differs from man to man (well, actually, person to person.) My husband would rather be left alone when he is sick. It took me awhile to get used to that. I wanted to give him soup, fluff the covers and pillows, etc., but he just wanted to be left alone entirely. I've heard of other men, though, who can be babies about a tiny scrape or bruise. ;-)

Does anyone else think that Hillary Clinton has multiple Personality Disorder? So, you watched Bill Maher this week, too, huh? His routine and graphics on this subject were hilarious! To answer: I don't think she has MPD as much as she has the pandering down to a science. She will say or do anything if she thinks it will get her elected.

What do you think of people that have no friends? I must be awfully Pollyanna-like...I don't want to think about that there might be people without any friends at all. But, if someone were truly friendless, I'd not judge him/her. If s/he needed a friend, I would try to be one. If s/he just didn't want to let anyone in, I'd respect that desire.

What are the uses of sound in medicin Another use I've not seen posted yet is the use of Doppler. (The Doppler effect) It is useful for determining if there are blood clots by shooting sound through the vessel and listening for the echo. If the sound comes back too slowly, it could indicate a clot forming. If the sound does not come back at all, it could mean there is a clot completely blocking the vessel. ...

Has any other fellow ABers strike you as being truly unique and therefore approachable? Just about everyone I've met here is truly unique! Ditto with being approachable. I don't like to name names, because I wouldn't want to leave anyone out, or potentially hurt someone's feelings.

Answer to:
Can you name some very helpful and intelligent people here on AB? I don't care for questions that ask us to name names. Invariably, people get left out and feelings get hurt. So, I'll just go with: there are many of them!

Which is more pathetic: an American attempting a British accent or vice versa? I think it varies according to the talent of the person making the attempt. Examples: British to American: Hugh Laurie is Excellent! Aussie to American: Rachel Griffiths is Excellent! In both cases, I was shocked to hear their true accents in interviews. American to British: Meryl Streep does a great job. American to British: Madonna doesn't cut it. American to British:...

Answer to:
Celebrity chef Robert Irvine (Dinner: Impossible) was recently fired by the Food Network for embellishing his resume. Do you think they made the right decision? No. If they fired him, they should fire Sandra Lee and Rachael Ray as well...both of those women have embellished their resumes, too. At least Robert Irvine is legitimately a credentialed chef; neither of the women I named above are.

How long did it take you to figure out that your downrating power is not the same as your uprating power, and that the same is true for rating questions and even posts? It didn't take long at all; it shows in my profile. At my level, my downrating "power" for questions *is* the same as my uprating power. I can do +/-5. For answers, the most anyone can ever downrate is -5, but you can uprate up to -6.

We really liked each other, but just couldn't live together. There...

Is anyone else very interested in the possible legal challenge to John McCain's status as a "naturally born" citizen, and what ramifications this may have on a number of legal and political issues? Yes, I'm interested in the situation, and in learning about how the "naturally born" citizenship will be determined. My best guess is that such a determination would depend on the actual legal status of the Panama Canal zone at the time of his birth. For example, I believe that if he were born in a US Territory or Protectorate such as Guam or American Samoa, that counts as a...
