Create a peace file for your child

Filed under: — elana @ 09:51 GMT

Mothering Magazine this month has an article on how to create a peace file for your child. Basically, if your child (and I’m not just gonna say son, cause daughters will be part of the draft at some point) gets drafted and files for CO status, they need some type of documentation to show that. Mothering suggests tons of things, like teachers letters, photos of the child at peace rallies, homework/essays where peace is the main theme, etc. You get the idea. I think it’s brilliant, but also damn scary that we need to do something like that.

Many people may not get medical insurance and thus forced to pay for the expensive prescription medications or research how to buy generic medications online. Generic drugs are as safe as other branded counterparts. Only reputable pharmacy produces them such as German Remedies. With this in head one can buy revia uk in generic online drugstore including free shipping anywhere in the world

CACI: Children Accessing Controversial Information

Filed under: — brendan @ 07:44 GMT

In the mid-1990s, I picked up maintenance of a mailing list set up by some folks at MIT. Called CACI: Children Accessing Controversial Information, it was intended to offer a forum for parents, teachers, or just about anyone else to talk about the free anarchy of the Internet and its potential impact on children. With all the fear of porn and pedophilia lurking at every corner on the Net, we thought it’d be a fairly active list.

This is how the list describes itself:

CACI, Children Accessing Controversial Information, is a mailing list for
discussing children accessing controversial information through computer
networks. Can children be prevented from accessing materials which are
controversial? Is preventing access even desirable? We believe censorship is
not the answer. What alternatives do we have or could we provide? How do we
talk with children about these issues? What can we say to concerned parents
and school administrators? How and by whom are community standards set? We
hope to form a community of people interested in discussing these issues and
developing helpful materials.

For the last few years, however, it’s been pretty stagnant with only short bursts of conversation. I wonder if everyone is just so firmly set in their beliefs (filter my computer, don’t filter it, porn is good, porn will rot my child’s brain) that they see no need to talk about it and learn from others?

Some people can`t afford health insurance so they have choice to pay for the really expensive prescription drugs or look after cheap generic drugs online. Generics are potent and safe as other branded meds. Only reputable pharmacy produces them such as Adjanta. Having this in mind one may buy paxil uk in generic online pharmacy with free shipping worldwide
