Answer to:
Do you use any "baby speak" sign languages with a small child in your life? Which do you use? I use traditional ASL. By simply associating the sign with the spoken word while interacting with the child will help them to learn it. Language for a while, at the beginning is simply a conditioning response. Be sure to use positive reinforcement while teaching, and especially when the child learns the new sign/word. Good Luck!

What website(s) show(s) you an animation of sign language when you type and submit a sentence? It isn't that simple. Many words are left out of sentences in translation so it is more difficult than just any free translation website. HandSpeak.com, ASLPro.com, SignBank.org, and many others do offer ASL videos as a dictionary, but not as a translation website, like BabelFish or FreeTranslation.com does for written languages. Also keep in mind that facial expression is just as...

When my car is in reverse and I apply the brakes it makes a horrible squeak-like noise. It does not always happen and it seems to happen more often when it is damp outside. Should I be concerned? If your brakes are old and they squeak, you are in trouble, that is the sound of metal on metal and you will need a whole lot more than the pads replaced. However since it only does it in reverse and occurs more often when damp there is a possibility they just need to be adjusted or tightened, OR you simply need to rotate your tires. The uneven wear due to forward and backward motion can cause...

Should the death penalty apply to adults who rape children? HELL yes, rapists and child sex offenders who reoffend should get the death penelty. There needs to be a greater fear of taking someone's life away from them When you take something from someone, especially in their childhood, you ruin what they know of as life. Unlike death, there is no real healing, closure, or acceptance, the view of moving on, moving forward. The rapist who would kill...

I have just reviewed all the videos and have learned so much. I'm thinking about taking the veggie smoothie recipies and adding ice cream to it to make a vegetable ice cream. Is this possible, and if so would I have to adjust the recipe an You can make most things into icecream, but often it is not a good idea (as many chefs learn while on Iron Chef), unless it is a veggie you can sweeten or consume cold. However if you are looking to stay vegan, then maybe sorbet is a better idea since ice cream requires milk and eggs. I would google a recipe, search _________ (insert veggie) ice cream, then compare recipes to see which ones you...

Answer to:
Who or what do you feel lies to you the most? Myself. We all lie to ourselves, when we think we are too good or not good enough. When we become defensive or withdraw out of fear, fear of being happy but think it is a risk. We lie to ourselves to protect those we love, which is essentially lieing to them. Truth is hard to take, but it is the best for both. Sometimes we allow those we love to hurt us. I am not talking about everyday...

What does it mean to dream about waking up 3 times and seeing a spirit wandering around the house in the same dream? Well it all depends, if you believe in life beyond the mortal existence. I have never had any elightening or spiritual experiences with ghosts, angels, spirits, or whatever term fits your agenda, but I don't doubt their ability to communicate with the living. It could be important, or it could be your imagination.

What was the worst medical experience or hospital experience you had to deal with, and how old were you when it happened? Did it result in a law suit? I was going in for a routine outpatient surgery for removal of a lypoma (fatty tissue tumor). However, having never been in a hospital in my life (my mum had a midwife) I had some anxiety about it. My doctor instead of explaining to me the procedure and what nots, wrote me an rx for valium. I was upset enough I switched surgeons. Thankfully. Turns out I have a hemophiliac type bleeding...

What was the craziest thing that you had done to impress a guy/girl that you like,or loved? I was head over heals with one of the Master's music students. I taught myself how to play the piano for him. Seriously, I practiced 30-60 min everyday. It was an extremely useful crush in the long run. And, though I didn't know at the time, he was impressed and actually liked me. Moral of the story, secret crushes are sometimes reciprocated.

My 13 year old daughter just ask me what HIV was? I was kind of shocked are they not teaching this in school or did she not pay attention? Depending on the state,county, or school district she may not have learned it yet. I got it when I was 10, in high school I moved to another and in order to attend that class, we needed parental permission. However, she still wants (and it is better) she gets information, especially that of a sensitive nature from a parent or loved one. It will give the child comfort.

So my parents are going through something of a separation, whatever. It really doesn't bother me much, but my doctor is making me take anti-depressants even though I don't feel depressed. Will they be harmful or could they cause imbalances? Yes, they could cause an imbalance. The problem with many anti depressant drugs is that science doesn't actaully know how it works, how it changes the seratonin and dopamine levels. Side effects can be found on the drug website, however they sound lighter because it is selling the product. I reccomend looking at rxlist.com for information on the drug. And those are listed as drugs are...

Answer to:
Utah is rumored, very widely, to be the #1 state for Jello consumption. Why do Mormons like Jello so much and especially Green Jello? Well, it comes down to this. Easy food storage, easy calories, and doesn't taste that bad. When you need something sweet, but can hide nutrition in, jello seems to be the answer. You can put fruit or veggies in it (shredded carrots seem to be choice) and its an easy dessert. Plus mormons like to spread their religion, so what better way that a jello mold? bringin it to a new neighbor gets...

Answer to:
At what age do the social services consider a child not to be at risk from sexual abuse is this 16 or 18? Once they are 18 they no longer fall under the care of social services, even if the minor has been emancipated, so 16 and 17 still are still "risked" ages. Though as an adult one can still report their childhood sexual abuse and a record can be made against that offender. The age of consent in many states is 16, but there is a statute of how old the partner can be, as well as the...

Answer to:
If a 16 year old had a 13 year old girlfriend, and they had sex, would you consider him to be a paedophile? Or would you feel that as he is a child himself, this is somewhat acceptable (although illegal)? The lowest age of consent I know of is 14, but that only extends two years, so in this case, yes the 16 year old is legally guilty of a sexual offense. Once 16, the age difference will extend anywhere from 1 to 10 years depending on the state. Since the child is 13, an investigation could be held to determine if there was proir abuse contributing to current sexual reactivity.

Do I think it is a sign from Diety? Not really. Do I think it shows how you both feel about eachother? HELL YES. Dreams are subconscous desires we are afraid to face while conscience.

How do u ask ur best friend to be your valentine? This is the first time I will suggest to her I have feelings for her? Be honest. Just say how you feel. Don't use any trickery ( ie the first post) or ways to make the situation a joke if she doesn't like you back. Ask her on a date and hold her hand or put your arm aorund her. Give her a compliment you haven't given her before.
