<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">My 12 year old son has
been bullied since kindergarten. Guess who started it and made it okay for this
to happen? His kindergarten teacher. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It
took a bit but we were able to document what she was doing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She was doing it to other kids as well, and
she was doing things that were very much against school policy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had to go up the chain of command right up
to the school board.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes we got her
removed but the damage was done. Over the last 7 years the bullying has gotten
so bad that his life was hell at school. The level of violence directed at him
is difficult to understand, especially considering the so called zero
tolerance. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">In grade one he was
being picked on by kids in grade three. In the school "playground"
they would gang up on him, pick him up by his arms and legs and slam him into
the cement. He would come home with scrapes and bruises. We confronted the
school about it, it was a small play area and the teachers would just ignore
what was going on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But when we
confronted them with what Nick was telling us they admitted it was
happening.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We told him he could defend himself, that even
though the school had a no tolerance policy he could do what he needed to to
stop the boys and get away.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">We got a call from the
school after the first break. It turns out Nick decided offence was better than
defence. The way the teachers described it was, "As soon as the bell went
Nick ran out of the classroom, out to the play area. He ran up to the group of 6
grade 3's that would hurt him every day. He took all 6 down to the ground
before the teachers could stop him.” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They
were trying to suspend our grade 1 for taking out 6 grade 3 boys. The boys who
hurt Nic never got in trouble for what they did, and the school knew about it
because when we confronted the school they knew who was hurting Nic. So who did
they go after, the victim who decided to stop being the victim. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">For the last few years
one kid has made it is goal in life to torment my son. He is a popular child
and got all his "friends" to pick on Nick as well. The bully made sure
everyone understood that if someone was my son’s friend they would be bullied
as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That my son could not play in
any games, or even play at the park by the school.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My son hated going to school. It was reported
to the school consistently.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was so
bad that the school told the bully that if it continued they would suspend the
bully.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All that happened was Nic got
bulled more buy this kid’s friends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Nick
was told that if he told anyone about the bullying it would get worse.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He was afraid every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">The bully’s dad
actually encouraged his son to hurt ours and would get mad if he did not
actually do anything to Nic.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was so
bad we had to call the police on the Dad twice because he threatened to hurt
me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He would walk up behind me on school
grounds, lean over and whisper threats that no one else could hear.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He would stand outside our house and look
into our front window.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So the dad was
told that if he did not stop he would be charged with stalking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The result, the violence to my son went up. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">This summer the kid
and his friends made a point of hanging out at the park behind my house and
picking on my son every time he went outside. At one point my son asked for a pocket
knife and bugged us all summer for one. What we did not know was that he wanted
it for protection. The boy who picked on him had one and told him he was going
to "Shank" Nic. He spent all summer trying to stay in the house
because he thought this boy would kill him. It all came out on the first day of
school. We pulled him out of school. He spent 3 weeks out of school as we
arranged for a new school that we have to drive him to because there is no
transportation when you put your kid in an out of catchment school.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="background: white; color: #141823; font-family: "Helvetica","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%;">He loves his new
school, but is so used to being picked on he is having a bit of a problem
adjusting. It feels uncomfortable for him not to have to constantly watch his
back. It is uncomfortable that kids want to play with him, and talk with him
and be friends instead of hurting him. This is in Canada and there is a real
issue with victims being punished for what others do all the time.</span></div>

wars and people starving, dyeing because they cannot afford or get to medical
care and more.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has always been
something coming in the future, something I could prepare for, to try and protect
my children from.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then today I realised
there is no more waiting, we are already there.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">

</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
There has been some war going on someplace in the world for
years and years now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The war did not have
to be where I live.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No war is killing
people every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People are starving,
and dyeing right now because of war.</div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
I see people struggling to sponsor refugees, to find some
way to give these people a better life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>One person pointed out the cost to sponsor one adult refugee, $12,600 a
year; it was about the same amount as two people on welfare (Ontario works)
receive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The amount to sponsor two adult
refugees, $21,200 is around what my family of five lives on, with my husband
working full time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To sponsor a family
of 4 it would cost $27,000.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We have many
families here already living on less that.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
It was also pointed out that any refugees would probably end
up living in bug infested homes, because that was what they could afford.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Guess what, way too many families currently
live in bug infested homes, ants, cockroaches and bed bugs to name a few.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Bed bugs alone are epidemic here, and you don’t
have to be poor to be one of the people living in those conditions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
There are too many families homeless, trying to live in
shelters, little baby’s to seniors and everything in between.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are people living on the streets right
now, in our city.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are people going
through garbage looking for food, right now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There are people going without the medication or medical help they need
here in my country right now because of cut backs and things not being covered
anymore.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
People working, with homes are struggling to feed their
families.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many of us have to make real changes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Meat is becoming so expensive that people
just cannot afford it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Meat is one of
the things that people have to cut back, reduce portions or simply skip completely.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Vegetables and fruits are starting to get
expensive as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Actually everything
is becoming far more expensive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
There are a lot of changes, unexpected changes that cannot
be ignored.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People are going back to an
older way to live, growing food, canning and even hunting. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One of the things that stood out was the fact
that people are going back to eating things that most of us don’t see as
food.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For example, squirrels.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am part of a BBQ group and one person was
so happy because they were able to get a bunch of squirrels and wanted to know
how to cook them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They showed the
squirrels skinned and prepped for cooking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>What was surprising was the number of people with recipes, advice on how
to cook them or even pictures of the squirrels they cooked.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One man showed two squirrels cooked and ready
to eat, and was unhappy because he had only been able to get two for that
meal.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This was not a random thing, this
was a food source for people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They are
going for the smaller animals, squirrels, rabbits, and well whatever they can
get.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There was no embarrassment, or
shame in this, it was more pride because they could feed their family.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>More and more people are out hunting/trapping
what they can.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People were talking about
if it was okay to eat city pigeons verses farm raised pigeons.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This
is not in a war torn or third world country, but one of the biggest countries,
one that is considered wealthy by most.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yet
our food banks cannot keep up with the demand.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We have people going hungry every single day, real hunger as in that piece
of bread is their food for the day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Schools have started snack programs because too many kids don’t have
food to eat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(We don’t have lunch
programs here) </div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People are looking
into growing what they can in their back yards, balconies and inside their
homes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Any space that can be used to
grow something to feed your family is going to be used.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Even if it is just herbs it helps.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We just ordered seeds for things we can grow
in our home over the winter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are
putting plastic shelves in our windows so that the plants can get the light
they need. We live in a small townhouse with very little space, and no real “growing
area”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our neighbours did not plant
flowers this year in the little tiny spot we have to grow stuff.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No it was food, tomatoes, lettuce, mint,
peppers, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We even planted blueberry
bushes in our little spot.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On a side
note several of the neighbours had the food disappear overnight from the front
garden spot, because people are hungry.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Many people have turned their little cemented back patio into little
gardens using flower pots because we are not allowed to put anything on the
fence.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Last year we were supposed to get
a community garden in our complex, like many of the other complexes but somehow
that was stopped.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are community gardens
showing up all over the place and I am going to have to buy a spot in one of
them in the spring seeing as our community garden was stopped.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
Old fashioned skills are coming back again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People are canning again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes canning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Getting foods as cheap as possible and then canning it so that they will
have it later. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is not just farmers
anymore.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I started canning food a couple
years ago.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has made a huge difference
on me being able to feed my family and I am not the only one in my area to
start.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>More and more people buying
canning equipment and learning every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Stores that never carried canning equipment suddenly have entire
sections dedicated to canning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Canning
groups are becoming bigger and bigger every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
I can no longer turn my head away and try to convince myself
that everything is okay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not when sponsoring
a refugee takes more money then what people here are already living with.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not when the conditions that many families
live with here are considered unacceptable for a refugee.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How can we be trying to help out refugees
when we cannot even help out the people already living here?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have to admit I was upset to find out how
much money my Government is donating to help out refugees, but children, adults
and seniors are living in worse conditions here than what is considered
acceptable for a refugee to live under.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Please
note that I am not saying that the refugees don’t need help, or that they
should not get help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They do need
help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, I am saying that there
are people right here in my country that also need help and they are not
getting it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why is it okay for many
regular citizens of my country to live in conditions not acceptable for a
refugee to live in?</div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">

matching. Along with the savings comes abuse from other customers and sometimes
the cashiers!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Today I had a good and bad experience at Walmart. I got in line with a very full cart. You could clearly see I had a lot of
stuff. Lady gets behind me with 6 items
and two kids.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I tell her right away; “I am couponing and price matching. It might be faster if you go through the
express checkout right beside us.“<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“No, I don’t mind, I
am fine!”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Okay, just so you know, I have a lot of stuff today”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The cashier was wonderful.
She had no issues with my cart load of things to price match and coupon. She was fast!
I had a hard time keeping up with her, and I was very organized. Had my coupons all ready, and all my price
matching was clipped in Flipp and she still had me on my toes. My order went through quickly.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>As a side note:</b><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><b>I saved about 40% of my order: I spent $104, saved $69. My order would have been $172. </b> I probably actually saved more because some of the items were on sale at Walmart and I did not need to price match to save.</li>
<li>I had 14 unique items. Some I had multiples of. Mostly 2 but did have 5 of one item.</li>
<li>6 of the items were price matched saving me $38.</li>
<li>9 of the items had coupons saving me $31.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We had two issues, both to do with price matching. She wanted to make sure I could price match
my pop and had to call for a customer service manager. Who was there right away, no waiting at
all. Quick easy question and we were off
again. The second problem was on the
very last item. She wanted to know the
address of a store, which I have to admit I was not prepared for. Flipp will only let me price match locally so
I knew it was a local store but could not find the address on the flyer. It was just too small on the screen. I had an idea of where it was, but was not a
100% sure so I wanted to give her the right address. Just
as I found it she asked another cashier if he knew where the store was. He did and she was off again.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="http://www.hipasiwannabe.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/mad-angry-crazy-woman-lady-upset-irate-pissed-enraged.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.hipasiwannabe.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/mad-angry-crazy-woman-lady-upset-irate-pissed-enraged.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a>The lady behind me who was okay with me price matching and
couponing started yelling at me because I should have been more organized and I
was holding everyone up. WHAT? Nope sorry, but I have no idea how much more
organized I could have been. I told her
that it was going to take some time, but she decided to stay in line behind
me. I have to admit I was confused. The cashier was so fast that it took less
time with all my coupons then some of my smaller orders without coupons or
price matching. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I had one little problem, trying to find the store
address. The issue took less than a
minute from beginning to end. As soon as
I let the cashier know I did not know for sure the address but would look it up
she was asking the cashier beside her.
So as far as delays and issues it was a really small one. The lady’s reaction to the whole thing was
not. Yet she felt perfectly comfortable
yelling at me. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This lady decided that because I had coupons and
was price matching it was okay to be extremely rude to me. Why was it okay for her to yell at me,
because she had to wait in line behind me?
This was not the first time something like this has happened. I have had cashiers give me attitude and make
comments, even on just a small order with one or two coupons or price
matching. I have had people come up
behind me and then leave in a huff because I was couponing or price
matching. Some become abusive like the lady today. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Some people love watching how much I save. Some cashiers are wonderful, nice, kind,
considerate and even coupon and price match themselves. So I
know it is the individuals who have the issue, not all shoppers or cashiers. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is still disruptive and embarrassing when someone takes
the opportunity to be abusive, cashier or other customers. But that is not going to stop me. I save way too much money by couponing and

We had decided to go out for dinner as a treat. My daughter has been bugging us for months to
go to East Side Mario's. We had planned
to go to a different restaurant but as we drove by the East Side Mario's we saw
the sign for their 12 for 12 special. 12
different entrees for $12 and kids would eat for free (actually was $5 off
their meal off the kids menu so no it was not “free”). We decided to go in – biggest mistake in a
long time. Horrible, horrible service
and the food simply sucked.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It was about 5 pm, a little early for us but we went in
anyway. Because there were 5 of us we
had about a 15 to 20 minute wait to be seated.
They had several empty tables that were reserved, and that was
understandable. It was once we were
actually seated that the problems began.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When we were seated the waitress showed up with our
menus. I told her that we really needed
to get a chocolate milk for our two year old daughter. She was very fussy and I wanted to keep her
calm. At that point we ordered a coffee
for myself, water for my husband and two fancy drinks for the older two
kids. I stressed that we really needed
the chocolate milk. 20 minutes later,
yes 20 minutes later she showed up with my coffee and the water for my
husband. She claimed that the bar was
holding up the kids drinks. It was
another 10 minutes after that before the kids drinks showed up. So even though we had shown up about 5 pm it
was 6 pm before we got our drinks. It
was not that busy!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
By then I have spent a half hour trying to keep a two year
old calm. When my husband’s water s
showed up the two year old attacked it, put her hand in it and started drinking
it. The waitress saw this and still took
over 10 minutes to bring us the kids drinks.
I am sorry but it does not take a ½ hour to pour a glass of chocolate
milk. She never brought my husband a
fresh water, and I had drank my coffee before she showed up with the kids
drinks, it was over an hour before I got a refill of coffee.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Oh, by the way, she did not take our order until after the
drinks arrived. So in a half hour she
came to our table to drop off the menus and we gave her our drink orders. She came back to drop off our drinks and then
after that came to take our order. By
now the two year old is going out of her mind.
It was impossible for me to look at the menu and deal with her, hence
why I had asked for the chocolate milk, to keep our two year old happy and give
me a chance to look over the menu.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She dropped the kids drinks off asked if we were ready to
order. I said no I needed a moment as I
was trying to choose between two items. I
was about to ask her a question about two of the menu items but she walked away
and did not come back for quite some time.
I could see her standing at the other end of the restaurant by the
kitchen talking. We could see that
people who came in after us had their meals before we even had our order
taken. Heck they had their meals before
we had our drinks.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She eventually came back. I had been staring at her for
about 10 minutes. We quickly placed our
orders but when it came to me I still had my two questions to ask. She made it very clear she was not happy
about me taking her time by asking her about the two pasta sauces. I quickly just picked something because I was
afraid that if I did not she was going to make us wait forever before she came
back to take our order.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now it is after 6 pm, our kids are used to eating at 6
pm. The two year old is now really
upset, drank her milk within a minute and had been stuck in a restaurant for
over an hour, with no food and not able to run around and play. We waited until about 6:20 before the bread arrived. Another 15 to 20 minutes for the soup and
salad to arrive. It was about 7 pm
before our entrée’s arrived. We had been
in the restaurant for two hours before getting our meals.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Our food was lukewarm, not hot. The pasta was too al dente, it needed about
another minute the sauces were not very good at all. The bread was just okay. The garden salad was tasteless, very little dressing
and it was very plain. The Caesar salad was
not that good, no garlic, very bland.
The soup had no flavour at all.
Nothing tasted very good, not even with cheese added to it. Our two year old would only eat a couple of
the noodles off my plate, and the ice cream desert. She did not touch her meal at all. We ended up packing up our dinner and going
home. I started to feel sick after
eating, so did my kids. It took forever
to get our bill. I actually packed up
the kids and went to the car while my husband waited for the bill so he could
pay. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now understand we went to the restaurant prepared to keep
our two year old occupied. We had her Innotab
with movies and games on it. We had crayons
and paper and even a few toys. However,
we never expected to be stuck in the restaurant for 2 ½ hours. No one can expect a two year old to be stuck
at a table for 2 ½ hours. The whole experience
was horrible. It was so bad that my
husband only gave the waitress a $2 tip on a $54 bill, and we normally give
more than 10% as a tip. So you know it
had to be bad for us not to give a good tip.
We are never ever going back to East Side Mario's. The food was not worth the money and the
experience was just nasty.<o:p></o:p></div>

I have been noticing many requests for food, diapers and
other necessities on Facebook and other places.
Many people are struggling to survive.
I get it, lots of people just don’t
have the money to make it from paycheque to paycheque (working or not). I know that it is a reality, many people have
to go to food banks, and even then it is easy to find yourself without before
you have any money to buy more.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I always feel bad, and worry about the kids because it is
usually someone with children asking for help.
Not saying that people with kids are going without more than those
without kids. I just think that a good
parent is going to let go of their pride enough to ask for help when it is for
their kids, where they may not if it was just for their self. I know, I am a parent and we struggled for a
long time. For my kids I went to food
banks, went without so my kids had the food or clothing they needed. A few times in my life I have had to ask for
a little help, and was lucky enough to get it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For the local people asking for help I have offered to help
them change how they buy stuff, to coupon.
I have even offered to give them coupons and take them out so that they
can get to the store and learn how to get their money to buy more then it
usually does. Heck, for some things all
I have to do is pay the tax. It is how
my family is able to have the food we do.
You save on what you can and use the rest to buy what you have to. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So far not one person has taken me up on it and I don’t
understand why not. I mean, sure I
cannot give you food right this second (actually some of the coupons will give
you free food) but I am willing to teach you and help you so you can feed your
family better using coupons and price matching.
It really works, but it does take time and a lot of effort. It can be very difficult when you bus and
have to try and buy everything for the month in one trip. I know, I have had to do that for a long
time. I don’t understand why people are
willing to ask for help, but then are not interested in making changes so they
don’t have to ask for help.<o:p></o:p></div>

I learned a long time ago that not everyone with their hand
out actually needs it, some do, but some make a good living begging. Other people are usually just fine but
something happened to put them in a position of needing help for this week or
month but things will be fine after that.
Others are in a position of needing help all the time, not enough money,
too much debt, or they simply don’t have a clue how to handle the money they do
have. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
I just find it frustrating when there are people who would benefit
by making a few changes in their lives are unwilling or not interested in
making any type of change. It makes me
question if I should keep offering to help.
I am sure if I said, here take the food I have worked so hard to get for
my family they would be glad to take it, but are not interested in doing the
work for their self. I just don’t get
it. </div>

There is a downside to empathy. It is hard for me to see others in need and not help. It is hard to see the stories and videos of all the horrible things going on in the world, and my own neighbourhood. It is hard to walk away from a child knowing they are hungry or in pain, but you are not in a position to help (not actually walking away from a child, but hearing about it is enough for me to feel as if I am). This weekend I had one child (my daughters’ friend) ask for a drink, milk because she had not had any for some time. I have been there a few times this last year alone, I know how hard it is when you cannot even buy milk. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Today I saw several posts from Moms out of money and food asking for help, in my town. I get it, I have been there. I had to change how I lived my life. I had to learn how to budget and give up things and go without. I had to spend the time getting the deals and going without something to stock up on something on sale because it would save us money in the long run.</div>

The real issue is we are poor. Even those of us with jobs can be poor. Our income does not match with our debt load or the cost of just living. I am lucky, I was shown how to shop, use price matching and couponing last year. I am now able to buy more for less, sometimes even free. In Canada it is hard work saving money that way, but it is worth it. I joined groups that do the same thing and we all help each other find deals on food and anything else we can.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have to admit that couponing and price matching and stocking up on stuff has saved our butts a few times when money was short, or gone. I don’t think I could feed my family as well as I do if I was not couponing and price matching. Even with that the cost of meat is getting to be too much. I am going to have to learn to have meals without it most of the time now, and less of it when we do. So we have to change how we do things again.</div>

I know part of it is that we getting hit with the January hardships. We (as in most of us, not us personally this year) spent too much trying to give our kids Christmas, to celebrate and give joy, instead of going without of always feeling poor.

I wish there was some way I could change this, make things better for people and it hurts my heart and soul to see the way people live, and are going without. Mainly because I have been there, I grew up like that and lived most of my life that way, even when I had money I did not feel like I did, that something was going to happen and I would have nothing. My greatest fear is to be homeless, or be unable to feed my children so when I see others unable to feed theirs I want to help. I am feeling very sad right now.

With the many, many different attacks going
on in the world it is interesting to see the labels people use. Some people refer to an "event" as
a hate crime and others call it a terrorist attack. When it comes down to it, what is the
difference? Both are targeted, both are
designed to create fear, both are a way to try and control the actions of
others and say your way is the only way and that anyone who does not follow
that one life path should be harmed or killed.
It does not matter if it is committed by one perpetrator or by many, the
result is still the same. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All these types of "crimes" are the result of
anger and hate: the man shooting women from a tower, bombing a planned
parenting clinic, people flying planes into buildings, others using car bombs
to kill people of a different religion or geographical area, the rape, torture
and murder of people "on the other side" regardless of sex, age or
even religious or political affiliation.
This is not a Muslim "issue", it is a continuous issue
throughout history with different "players" be it Catholics versus
Protestants, Christine vs Pagans, Irish vs English, or Muslims against anyone,
and many more examples. At some point
every group, be it geographical, cultural or religious has either been
targeted, or been the aggressor. (If I am wrong please give me examples of a
people that have never been the victim or aggressor.)</div>

I don’t have any answers on how to change this. I don’t even know if humankind can change
this part of ourselves, it always seems to be us against them. I have to laugh because even as I write this I do so knowing that I am trying to influence others, to get them to "change" and see things my way. Sure my ideal is to not hate, harm or kill but still it is my idea of what is good and right. I cannot make others follow my ideals, The difference between me and people I would consider terrorists or do hate crimes is that I am not going to try and force others to change and do as I say or harm those that don't believe as I do. </div>

In one way sports and other competitions seem
to be a good way to fulfill the need for us vs them. But
it seems as if that need to identify with one group, and be against or better then another never goes away, just gets bigger. There is even violent conflicts between people who like different teams, so even sports competitions don't control or reduce that need. It is one of our greatest weaknesses. It is a great way to control a population,
give them someone to blame, to be angry at, to hate and harm.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The greatest example I can give is Hitler. He knew
he needed a focus population to blame so he found a population that did not have a
“country” to support them, the Jewish.
He used hate, discrimination and in the end mass murder to unite and
control his country. Others still use
his ideas to justify feeling “We are better than everyone else, we are right,
people must do as we want” and making it okay to hate, harm and kill everyone
that does not fit in their ideal world.
The funny part is Hitler himself did not fit in his so called perfect
race of people. That alone in my view
justifies the belief that all his propaganda was political and power motivated,
not an actual belief of superiority. The
hate and us vs. them was simply a tool to get him what he wanted.</div>

I think in most cases this is true, even when it is disguised
as a religious motivation, it still comes down to “We want you to do what we
think is right, not what you think it right.
Only we have the right to make choices.”
I am sure that the people actually doing the killing (and in some cases dying
for their cause) really believe what they are being taught. It is the people telling them what to do,
what to think that you have to take a close look at. It is never a good idea to follow blindly, no
matter what the belief or instructions are.
Think for yourself, make choices.
And if your salvation comes at the cost of others rights, freedoms and
lives is it really salvation?<o:p></o:p></div>

I normally like Danny’s No Frills in Hamilton, ON. It is usually well kept, clean, stocked and I get good service. More importantly they price match. So today when I was shopping (Nov. 25, 2014 at 1:15 in the afternoon) I let one lady know about a great deal on TP at Walmart. I showed her the Flipp app on my phone and the price. She decided to buy the TP and price match. I told her that I would meet her at the cashier and show them the sale on my phone. I had the actual flyer but it was in the bottom of my cart under a bunch of stuff.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When she got to the cashier I politely stood to the side with my stuff (I was still shopping) and waited to show the cashier the flyer/sale on my phone. She very loudly told me that I could not do that. I was surprised but said okay. I also said that the last time I was there they let me use the Flipp app to price match. I was told, “Unless I was paying for the TP we could not use my phone to price match.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Okay, so I dug out my flyer and went to hand it to the other customer so she could use it to price match. At that point the cashier told me, “No, she cannot use your flyer. To price match she has to bring in her own flyer.” I never heard of any one refusing to let someone use a flyer, regardless if they brought it in or someone else did. Here is the sad part. The customer had just purchased over a $150 in items. She had the TP separate, and it was the only item she was going to price match. I could have price match most of the items she had and saved a lot of money, but she only wanted to do one price match and the cashier would not let her. To me it goes against their price matching policy. Both the other customer and I were polite and pleasant through the whole thing. The cashier was anything but. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I talked to one of the staff on the floor about their policy and he said he had never heard of anyone refusing to let someone price match using a flyer just because they did not bring it in themselves. However, the cashier was actually yelling at us that the other customer could not price match using my flyer. None of the other cashiers said anything, and trust me everyone heard the cashier.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At this point I decided I was not going to continue my shopping at Danny’s No Frills. I was going to buy what I had in my cart and then finish my shopping at Giorgio’s No Frills. Needless to say I made sure I did not go to her register. I only price matched a couple of items and used a couple of coupons, but I did not want the hassle she was sure to give me if I had gone to her. I am glad that the other shopper I was chatting to earlier took one of my flyers to price match, I had my app and did not need it. I am sure if that cashier had seen me handing it to her she would have tried to stop her from using it.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
No Frills advertises the heck out of their price matching to bring people in. After all, every flyer is a No Frills flyer because they will price match. Nowhere does it say you can only use the flyer (or app on a phone) if you bring it in. It does not say you cannot share a flyer, or give one away. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I still like Danny’s No Frills but I have to admit I am thinking about not going there anymore. Not if they are going to use silly rules to prevent people from price matching. I had no issues at Giorgio’s No Frills, and in the past they had no problems with me sharing or giving my flyer to someone else, even if they were in front or behind me in line. So Giorgio’s No Frills is getting my business; even though Danny’s No Frills is the bigger store with more products. Customer service counts for a lot these days. After all I can choose to price match at any other No Frills, Walmart, Target and Freshco. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Please note that I am doing this in order of the request for coupon (the time I get the PM for it). So if you request but then I put anothers name under it please understand they requested first. If the trade does not go through I will have a list of each person in order of the request. When sending me a request please include the picture number to make things easier on both of us. Thank you.</div>

This is my house, the hand print just showed up on the wall about 7 to 8 feet above the stairs. It was not there before, and it there is no way for it to get there. I am hoping people could help me out with this one. <br />
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/QyILXj4BPvg" width="420"></iframe></div><br />
We did have the house painted about 4 months ago, but they had to use rollers on polls to reach this area. We watched them paint it, and we know they could not reach that area so it is not one of the painters hand prints. Also it is way to high up for someone to put their hand there from the stairs. My husband is over 6 feet and he could not do it. No one else has been in the house, and it showed up today. Our cat was going nuts today. She looked like she was hunting something and then all her fur stood up. It was if something scared her. She was not acting like herself at all. It was odd and then the hand print showed up.<br />
<br />
People have told me that it must be the painters, but I know it was not them. To be blunt my husband and I both watched them and they did not touch the wall in that area. If my husband cannot reach over the stairs and touch the wall there I don't know who could have done it. Also who would have done it, no one has been over. We have been here for more then 6 years and we know the hand print was not there before today. It would be nice if there was a simple explanation, but there is not one.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05292929584913914537noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2427270236076019894.post-6921693771949058742014-02-10T15:01:00.001-05:002014-02-10T15:01:54.166-05:00Healthy life hack for diabetics or people trying to lose weight<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Being diabetic and needing to lose weight has been
difficult. One of the things that I miss a lot are snacks and treats. I mean, I love chocolate and being able to
grab a handful of crackers, chips or chocolate covered pretzels. You just cannot do that with diabetes, or
when you are trying to lose weight. My
goal is to get healthy, lose the weight and maybe reverse the diabetes. Nothing like trying to stay alive to keep you
motivated, but that does not mean it is easy or fun.</div>

I have found a snack or treat that I can enjoy and eat
without guilt; Life brand Yogurt Bites and Nestle’s Graduates fruit &
veggie melts. Okay a little guilt because
I raided the baby’s treats for this, but it just means I buy more of it for
both of us. Though we do have to fight
off the other kids in the family(we share). The Graduates fruit & veggie melts are
sweet, and a little creamy. They are
full of flavour, real flavour. But they
are also low on carbohydrates and calories, only 25 calories and 6 g or carbohydrates
for 32 pieces or 7 g. That is a nice handful,
perfect for when I want a snack or treat.
My weakness is the Yogurt Bites.
Creamy and taste like fruit, or a creamy candy. I could sit there and snack on them all
day. I don’t, but I could. For ¼ cup or 7 g there are only 30 calories
and 5g of carbohydrates. That is really
good for someone who wants a treat, with flavour but needs to keep the
carbohydrates and calories low. I love
them so much that I actually contacted Shoppers Drug mart and asked them to
make some adult ones. And by adult ones,
I mean put them into a different package so it is not so obvious I raided the
baby’s snacks. Not that I am going to stop buying them now that I found
them. Though I do see myself learning how to make these for myself, giving me even more control over what is in them. I need all the help I can get to
get healthy and then stay healthy.
Diabetes is not going to win in this house.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I understand that most people have been let down or betrayed
at some point in their lives. Usually by
friends or first loves when they are in elementary or high school. But most of us learn from that. It is one of life’s bitter lessons, that
usually helps us as adults to avoid or at least deal with situations where our
hearts have been smashed, our trust broken or some has just proven that they
are not meant to be part of our lives.<br />
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sometimes there is that one person you just keep hoping they
will get their act together. Even though
it is not likely you still in the back of your mind expect that one day they
will change. You wait at every opportunity
to see if they will for once be the person you need them to be, even as you
fully expect them to let you down one more time. It still hurts ever time they prove that they
will never change even though they are given every opportunity to do so.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eventually you have to simply walk away. Which sounds easy, but usually it is not especially
if they are family. How many times do
you let someone have the opportunity to let you down, disappoint or hurt you
just because they are your mother, father, brother, sister, son, daughter or
grandchild? How many times does the rest
of the “family” pressure you into giving them one more chance? How often does the very person hurting you or
letting you down make everyone else think you are the issue, not them? Or better yet convince your loved ones that
you are being unreasonable, and are the black sheep, not them? Nothing like having a loved one turn everyone
against you.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I learned at a young age that my parents were not to be
trusted, and did not have my best interest at heart. As a child I tried to get help, but people,
including family believed the adults not the child. Even though I went to them year after year
telling them what was really going on.
Eventually I stopped, betrayed a second time by the adults I turned
to. Other kids believed me, but what
could they do. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eventually I became old enough to leave and I did. Other members of my family did help me go to
school, gave me a place to live for a couple of years. But even then they never believed me, always
supported my parents version of things.
Even when my parents did or said something right in front of them they
would self edit what happened. I think
they simply did not want to see or deal with the truth. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Over the years I grew up, moved out on my own. My father died, and on his death bed told me
he never loved me, never wanted me and did not want me to even attend his
funeral. My mother had tricked him by
getting pregnant. Nothing I did not
already know, but it still hurt that his last words were meant to hurt and
harm. My only crime, I was born. I did not even tell my work place when he
passed, did not cry a single tear. I
just went on with my life. It was not
like he was a part of my life before he died, I did not miss him. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My mother on the other hand was still a part of my
life. For the most part I just accepted
that she would be there. I simply did
not call her, or visit her. If she
called or came for a visit I would talk with her, spend time with her but I
would not go out of my way to do so. I
was constantly under pressure to call her from other family members. Eventually I had to cut her out of my life
for several years. Peace, finally peace.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then I let my family convince me to talk with her. So contact began again. Eventually I started my own family and shock
of all shocks she seemed to be a good Grandmother. It happens, a bad mom but a great
Grandmother. I felt safe enough to go to
counselling, mainly to deal with things so I could be a good parent. I made the mistake of confronting my mother
about my childhood, only to find out that she denied all of it and the things
she could not deny “were not that bad and I deserved everything I got!” From what I can figure out she has self
edited the reality to make herself the victim and has never done anything wrong. She decided that I was no longer her child
and my children were no longer her grandchildren. Thank goodness they were too young to
understand or remember her. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
However she started a campaign of hate right after
that. She convinced everyone that I cut
her out of our life, that I was denying her access to her grandchildren. She also convinced my family that I was
demanding money, and things. All I heard
was how horrible I was for not letting her even talk to her grandchildren. This from the same women who complained when
I emailed her a photo of my children and told me not to send her pictures of
them. It was easy for her to convince
everyone that I had done this because she had been telling everyone that I was
a liar since I was a small child. After
all the things I told my family at 5 had to be a lie, a parent would not do
those things to a child so it was easy for her to tell them it was a lie.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After many years and against my better judgement I finally
let her have contact with the kids. It
was okay for a few years, but again she decided she does not want to have
anything to do with us. She visited and
confronted me about all the lies I was telling her parents and sister. I had not talked to my aunt in 9 years and I
never talked about my mom to her or my grandparents.<br />
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It turns out that she has been full of anger for most of my
life. She was angry at me for “telling”
when I was 5 years old. She has self
edited her memories to the point that I was at 5 years old telling terrible
things just to cause problems. That
nothing was true. She was angry at me
and resenting me for things I said to her parents when I was between the ages
of 5 and 10. Some of the abuse came to
light when I was eleven/twelve and she sent me to live with my dad for a
year. So it comes down to the fact that she
has carried that anger for 40 years and in her mind it is a fresh as if it was
yesterday.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She decided to cut me and my children out of her life again just
like that. We don’t exist to her
anymore. I have two children who don’t
understand why Grandmother does not love them anymore, which is exactly what my
concern was when I let her into their lives.
My youngest daughter turned one today.
No card, no phone call, nothing.
She is lucky. She will never know
her Grandmother and cannot be hurt by her. As usual I am hearing from my family that I
must have done something wrong, after all I have always been the one who lied
and caused problems. So the consequence of
this is that now I don’t really have what I would consider family.</div>

So when do you finally stop giving second chances. Well hopefully people will learn from my
example and will do so long before they can cause this much harm. If being in contact with them is a negative experience
then stop. If they have an opportunity to
hurt you or your loved ones it is not worth giving them a second chance. If other people support the other person,
well you know where you stand with them, move on. It does not matter if they are family, or a
long time friend. If someone is abusing
your good nature, causing you to be hurt physically or emotionally or is just
not fun to be around don’t waste your time waiting for them to change. They are not going to. Simple!
If someone needs second chances and burns them but still expects more
chances they have no reason to change, ever.
The only thing you are doing is giving them the chance to use and abuse
your relationship and goodwill. If
people don’t understand why you don’t want to be around that person even after
you explain it, they never will. Don’t
try to convince them you are right, just let it go and put your time and energy
toward making your life better, with positive relationships. Walk away from the negative. If it is someone who you have no choice but
to deal with (co-parent) limit contact and do not let their issues become
yours. It is hard to do, but having a
better life is worth trying to do it.<br />

<span style="color: red;">Actors and musicians Lennon and Maisy <a href="https://twitter.com/lennonandmaisy/status/369301618518290434" style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; font-size: 26px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">tweeted</a> this letter with the caption: “A close family friend has an autistic boy and this was an anonymous letter slipped under her door. This is real.”</span></h2>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"> </span>You spend your day dealing with everyday stuff, work, kids, life. Things are a bit more difficult because your much loved 13 year old son has sever autism. You struggle everyday to meet the needs of your autistic child. Most people don't understand your struggles, how hard it is some days to see the child you love live in a world you just cannot reach. But somehow you keep on going, keep on loving and giving your child everything you can. You receive an anonymous hate filled letter saying horrible things about your son and you. Why because your beloved child makes too much noise for one of your neighbors. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It breaks your heart to read the poison someone felt it appropriate to write. Someone who does not have the guts to come and talk to you face to face. They know what they are saying is wrong so they hope to hurt the Mom as they hid behind anonymity. What a coward. How can someone write this garbage and not realize how stupid it makes them look. I guess they only thought about hurting this family. Well it worked for a little bit, than the Mother started talking and sharing with her friends (Lennon and Maisy) who took a very vocal stand. This is not acceptable and we will not hid in the dark and let this slid hopping it will go away. Nope they made sure the world saw this letter, and gave the power back to the victim, not the "anonymous" writer full of hate. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now most of the world is taking a stand to support the family with the autistic son, not the letter writer. Not the outcome you were expecting anonymous one pissed off mother. So now you have to suck it up and pretend to support the family, and the child you hate so much as everyone cries for your head. You must be praying that you are never found out to be "one pissed off Mother". So now instead of your victims hiding their home, fearful of what you will do next, worrying if it is safe for their son to play outside, you are hiding in fear. And you have something to fear. People hate you, really hate you, for what you did. They feel sorry for your children and believe you need some serious mental health help. How pathetic are you that you have to lash out against an innocent child and his family? It is not going to be pretty when you are found out. We all know you don't want people to know who you are. You didn't want to face the consequences of your poison letter when it was just you against this family. Now it is the world against you, how are you going to deal with the consequences of that. Eventually everyone is going to know who you are and what you did. <br />
<br />
I find it funny that a letter full of hate and poison brings the world together to support the family that received it. It brings to light autism, and the struggles of family's with autistic children. Instead of making the family hid their autistic 13 year old son they stand proud, in public, with him. As they should. And now there are millions of people willing to stand right there beside them, with the son you hate so much. The truth be told maybe we should be thanking you. The letter you wrote in anger and hate has created love and support. It has brought autism to the attention of the world. Now people will know the world supports them, and their autistic children, not people like you. Sure life is still going to be difficult, yes it is still sad their children are not able to live their lives like everyone else. But now maybe people will not get so upset or avoid people with autism, maybe they will sit and talk to the Mother or Dad with that child and give them a smile and some much needed support. Why all because you wrote such a ridiculously hate filled letter that makes people re-evaluate their reactions and feelings. Maybe people will change for the better simply because they don't want to be like you "a pissed off mother".</div>

She took the words right out of my heart. I could not have put this any better. Tim Bosma is not someone I knew, but my thoughts and heart go out to his family. I think we all feel for his family and connect to him because he could have been any of us. <br />

Today, the update came – with great sadness. My heart fell, tears fell, I felt empty. I don’t know this man, I don’t know his family, I don’t even know somebody who knows s</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">omebody who knows him but I have a father; to grow up knowing I wouldn’t get to know my father because someone wanted a truck, would be devastating beyond words. I have a fiancé; to lose him because someone wanted a thrill, would break me in half. I have uncles, brothers and friends; to lose any one of them in this way is unimaginable. And so, I wept.<br /><br />I can’t count the number of items I have sold on Kijiji. I have found many jobs and hired many people from ads on Kijiji. I have been in people’s homes, met in central locations and had people in my home. I have test driven cars and sold cars. Tim’s story is everyone’s story – we trust.<br /><br />Today, I question God. We all wonder what kind of world we live in that a man could be taken this way. It’s okay to be angry with God. Your anger will make your relationship stronger. He will guide you through. Often, right before God gives us something, he puts us through hardship. For the Bosma family, this is one of the biggest hardships you’ll know. Today you will weep, tomorrow you will weep, you very well might weep every day for the rest of your life – a piece of you was killed when your husband, father, son, uncle, friend was killed. But, one day, you will find your greatest moment of strength and you will move forward for Tim, you will find a way to honour him, find a way to prevent this from happening again, find a way to make meaning; you will find your way.<br /><br />To the media, I would ask that you report on Tim. Report about his life, his accomplishments, his family, his friends, the people who have prayed for him. STOP reporting on the suspects. I’m tired of turning on Google and finding stories about such a promising man in aviation, a humble man, a quiet and reserved man. I don’t want to read one more fact about him. I won’t speak for the family but I can’t imagine it helps them either. There is one question they want answered: why? This doesn’t require pages and pages of details on this man, your reporting is speculation. I don’t care if he was an aviation prodigy – today he is a monster.<br /><br />To the men who took Timothy Bosma, I have this to say: You have broken a family. You have killed the dreams of a wife and a little girl. You have crushed a mother. His family mourns his loss but do not be mistaken, they are not alone. 41,855 on Facebook alone, have found a way to be there for the family – some sent prayers, some sent love, some called the tip lines, some posted flyers, some talked to everyone they knew about Tim, some were the reason you’ve been caught. People from across the globe are pouring out their love and compassion for this man and his family.<br />You are but two men. We won’t focus on you because we cannot. We cannot allow ourselves to be consumed with all that is wrong with the world. I saw 41,855 reasons that you don’t matter.<br /><br />Let us remember – just when the caterpillar thought life was over, he became a butterfly.<br /><br />Timothy Bosma – Gone but not forgotten.</span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05292929584913914537noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2427270236076019894.post-24781917044840321112013-04-22T14:47:00.001-04:002013-04-22T14:47:26.833-04:00I have a Job, Motherhood.

All my life I have made choices. I live with the consequences and accept that
they were my choices. I am responsible
for my life and my choices. I have
started to come to terms with the fact that some people only see the
negative. That it does not matter what I
do or say it will never be enough or the right thing in their eyes. To them I am and always have been the “problem”. This is one of the reasons I chose not to
have any communications with some people.</div>

to let other people make me feel bad about myself or put me down because I don’t
live the life they expect me to have. I

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For almost a year a father and his 9 year old son played on
the Star Wars the Old Republic with a great guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A few weeks before the new Star Wars the Old
Republic expansion started the guild turned nasty.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Suddenly what used to be a fun MMORPG became
an ordeal of cyber bulling.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It started in sly comments.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It quickly moved up to nasty in game messages, anonymous posting full of
swear words, insults and comments like “you are this and this and should quite
the game” but not in so nice words.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Insert any combination of swear words, insults with thinly veiled
threats and you get the idea.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The last straw was when an anonymous posting went on the
guild page attacking four players, Suddenly what was just annoying and somewhat
childish behaviour became a full out attack.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The guild leader let the posting stay up on the guild page.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This showed that she supported the cyber bulling
behaviour of one guild member.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Please
note that the bully did not have the guts to put their name on their poison pen
posting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a result all four members
decided independently that they did not want to play in a guild where they were
expected to put up with someone treating them like crap.</span></div>
<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Not one of the players being cyber bullied had done anything
to earn the abuse.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two were new players,
who did not have much experience.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They
were in the process of learning the game and building up their levels.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One was a father, with a new born, who played
when he could but put his family first.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The fourth was in the US military serving overseas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He is fighting for his country, with all his
time scheduled for him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not to mention
putting his life on the line every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Why would any of these people want to deal with abuse every time they
logged onto Star Wars the Old Republic? </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Now it is one thing to have someone be nasty on Star Wars
the Old Republic, you simply block them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is something different to be cyber bullied by someone in your own
guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Especially when the cyber bully
hides who they are, it taints the whole guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>You don’t know who is doing it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It is like getting nasty letters in your locker at high school, the
bully wants to make their life hell but is not “man” enough to put their name
on it.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Oh, and Mr. Anonymous was not so anonymous after all. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The person was creating alternative characters
not in the guild so they could cyber bully “anonymously”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But all four people figured out who it was
when they compared notes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The cyber bully had recently joined the guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He was a new “friend” of the guild leader and
was given extra special treatment at the expense of the other guild
members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He was given an officers
position right away, even though everyone else had to work their way up the
guild and prove themselves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He was going
after the guild members he felt threatened by.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The ex-guild members felt betrayed by their guild leader,
that she would allow such abusive behaviour.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>None of the attacked players engage the bully. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was not worth their time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They play Star Wars the Old Republic to have
fun.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The funny part is that the cyber bully did not even notice
they had left the guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He stepped up
the attacks after they had already left.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>He started posting anonymous abusive messages in the guilds message of
the day for everyone to see.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He called
them names, put them down and kept saying they should be kicked out of the
guild.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">At first the guild leader was upset that the guild members
quite and asked them back.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That changed
within a day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Suddenly she was being
abusive to them as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Somehow they
were in the wrong for taking offence to the extremely abusive attacks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She expected them to just put up with it.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Just to be safe the Father decided to log onto his 9 year
old sons account and pull him out of the guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>What did he find, in retaliation for the father leaving the guild leader
kicked his son out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The cyber bully sent
the 9 year old a very abusive, bulling message along the same lines as what he
had posted to the other guild members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It was full of swear words and was just plain nasty to say to anyone,
let alone a 9 year old.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">What was the point of cyber bulling a child?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The kid was already kicked out of the
guild.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why send a child you don’t know
an abusive message?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Simple, because he
could.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He knew his guild leader will support
his cyber bullying of long standing and new guild members.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why would she have an issue with him
attacking a child in the same manner?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He
was so confident that he did not even bother to do it anonymously!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This just confirmed the suspicions about who
was doing it.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Well he was right.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>When this was brought to the guild leader’s attention her response was,
she was the one who kicked the child out of the guild and what was the problem
with the messages.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After all it was all
just a joke.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Extreme abusive cyber
bullying for two weeks a joke!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Right.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Who is she kidding?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most people will not accept this treatment
any time, so why should anyone accept it on a MMORPG.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">With the number of kids killing themselves over cyber
bulling she still thinks it’s ok for her new friend to do this to a child who
has never done anything to anyone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
guess she is not the good person people thought she was.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Who wants to be in a guild that you have to
put up with abuse to play in?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What gets
me the most though is, how could anyone think it is ok for an adult to cyber
bully a child!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is not ok for anyone
to cyber bully a child.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Our newborn was underweight
and losing weight every day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If she did
not put on weight she had to go back to the hospital.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had to put her onto formula, something we
had not budgeted for.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She had nipple
confusion and would not take the breast.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I talked about it on Facebook, I was very worried about having to put
her onto formula and upset that I was not doing my job as a mom and breastfeeding
her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One lady in our area had a huge bag
of formula that her baby was unable to eat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Her family gave us the unopened cans of formula.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My daughter could eat it and put on
weight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There was enough formula that it
got us to when we had money again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Their
kindness made a big impact on the life of my family.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">With a new born Christmas was very tight, but we expected
that and made plans and budgeted for it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We let our kids know that they would not be getting very much and they
needed to pick one special toy they wanted for Christmas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On the day we were told we had to put our
newborn on formula we used our budgeted Christmas money to buy bottles, formula
and a breast pump.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At the time I felt
like a huge failure because I could not breast feed my baby and that took away
the special toys our kids had asked for Christmas. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Just before Christmas a Christmas card showed
up in my mail with a prepaid credit card with $50 on it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This really helped us out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We used it to buy the toys special to our
kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It also let our kids buy a gift
for each other, something they really wanted to do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A small gesture made a big impact.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I don’t know how much the $50 meant to the
person who gave it to us; I just know how big of a difference it made to us. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">For my daughter’s birthday we told her no party this year
and we would have to wait a couple of weeks to do something as a family.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our daughter understood, and I never told
anyone, not even family, about the difficulty we were having. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Out of the blue a few days before my daughter’s
birthday a gift arrived, $50.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It gave us
what we needed to do what she wanted on her birthday, to eat out at a specific restaurant,
and still buy groceries for the next two weeks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Again someone made a huge difference to our lives just because they
wanted to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It may seem like a small
thing, being able to take our daughter out on her birthday, but it was a huge
thing for her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It made her feel
important and loved.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With a new baby in
the house she needs all the reminders we can give her that she is still valued,
important and loved.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I never asked for help.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I don’t sit around with my hand out waiting for someone to make my life
better.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But I am willing to accept
kindness for my children.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have no
pride when it comes to my kids, if my pride has to go so my children can have
what they need, so be it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They always
come first. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I do see this as what goes around comes around.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In the past I was able to pay it forward, or
be that helping hand many times.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have
been told that I can be a soft touch, and have a hard time seeing people in
need.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There were many times when money
found its way into the hands of those in need, family, friends and strangers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many invites for lunch or dinner were given with
lots of leftovers when we knew someone was running low on food.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Sometimes it was as simple as paying for the
meal of the family behind us in line at a fast food place.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When we had our business we would often suddenly
need “staff” when people really needed some real money.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They would work the weekend with us and would
have the money they needed without feeling they were taking charity (and they
actually did do work for us).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">When we lost the business and moved into this complex we
would to buy hotdogs when they went on sale, and fill our freezer with
them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was not uncommon all summer
long for the kids in our neighbourhood to show up whenever we turned on the
BBQ. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They knew we would put on several
packages of hotdogs, and they could eat.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>For some of the kids it was the only food they would get during the day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We knew that, and made sure they ate.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Heck we even bought a deep fryer because a
bag of potatoes was cheap and make a lot of French-fry’s.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is not something our family talks about,
we just did it because we could.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Sometimes they would show up for dinner too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Those kids don’t live here anymore, but we
helped them out when they did.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was
nice to be able to make a difference in someone’s life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I never expected to be on the other side, but
I am grateful that I was. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Times are getting harder, more families are in need.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I see requests on Freecycle for food, and formula,
clothing and more all the time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It makes
me sad that so many people are in need.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
hope to be able to repay the unexpected gifts of money one day when things
change and I am working again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Hopefully
when it is need the most.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">I just found out my Mom bought a computer last year, and it
is still sitting in the box.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She is
using one from 2002, but has a new one sitting in a box!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Ok, I understand that she is busy and does not have the time
to set up the new computer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She is waiting
until the home they are building is finished before they set it up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mind you they have been building the new home
for over 10 years, it might even be more then 15 years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have no idea how much more work needs to be
done, or how long it will take.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I am frustrated because I was trying to explain to her that
if she has a new computer she should be using it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also you don’t buy a computer until you are
ready to use it because you can get the same one for a lot less later on, or
buy a better one for the same price.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She
is happy to have it in its box, ready for when she wants to set it up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I keep thinking about how much she spent (did
not ask) and that she could have gotten a much better deal when she was ready
to actually use a new computer, not store one.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think the problem
is that she is just not that into computers the way my family is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is not a big deal to her if the computer
sits there in a box for a year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She had
the money so she bought it and put it aside until she is ready to use it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Computers are not a big part of her life, she
just does not use computers the way my family and I use them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My kids started trying to play on the
computer around 2 ½ years old.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Heck, my kids
have their own computers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My mom
actually bought our son a laptop when he was 8. My kids use computers every
day, and so do I.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is hard for me to
wrap my head around having a new computer and not using it, not even opening it
to make sure it works. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The real frustrating part is that I have been after her for
years to do video conferencing with us so my kids can talk to her face to face,
but the computer she is using is old, and is not equipped to do video
conferencing (Skype).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then I find out
she has a new computer sitting in a box.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I just keep thinking about the time she is losing that she could have
been talking face to face with her grandchildren on Skype.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have no idea how close they are to
finishing the house.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I don’t even know
if their new computer has what they need to do Skype.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But as I finally emailed my Mom, it’s her
computer so I will shut up. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was still
frustrated so I decided to write (whine) about it to get it out of my
system.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It helped me see that my getting
frustrated about the new computer still in a box is my issue, not hers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When she is ready she will open the computer
box; that is her choice.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I should just
mind my own business. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I am still frustrated though. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want my kids to be able to see their
Grandmother and for her to see them even if it is just on Skype. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am sure she will get around to opening up
her new computer, when she is ready.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I just
hope she can Skype with it; that she has what she needs to do video conferencing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Mind you if it was not for my husband I would
have no idea how to Skype or what I would need on my computer to do so!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Thank goodness my laptop came with everything
I need!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Ok, I have to laugh at myself for getting upset about my Mom
not setting up her computer when I have never set one up myself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is what my husband does, builds and
fixes our computers (not laptops).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am
sure if I had to I could set one up, they have extremely easy step by step
instructions or come fully loaded these days.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Build one, nope, but turn it on and follow what it tells me to do, that
I have no problem doing. Now I am laughing at myself!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">You don't have to be a victim or even look like a victim to
be raped.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You just have to be in the
wrong place at the wrong time, or come to the attention of the wrong
person.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rapists are called predators for
a reason.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You don’t have to be a woman
or girl to be raped or a man to be a rapist.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Anyone can be raped if the rapist puts the time and effort into it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is about power and control after all, not
sex.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So telling your daughter that
people out there want sex with her and some are willing to take away her choice
is not making her a victim.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is
letting her know it is possible.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How can
we expect our children to protect themselves to the best of their ability if
they are unaware that this can happen, or think it only happens to bad people
so it will not happen to them?</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Rape is a reality and a real possibility.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We cannot put our heads in the sand and
pretend it does not happen, or will not happen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Telling little boys and teens that is wrong to rape is no different than
telling them not to steal.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They need to
know this, but that does not mean they will not choose to steal, or rape.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People make bad choices all the time, and
some people feel they are entitled to whatever they want, including sex with
someone even if that person is not interested.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; tab-stops: 370.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We need to make sure our children,
male and female, know that rape is real.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There is nothing wrong with doing everything we can to prepare our
children to live in the real world.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
need to make sure they know what they can do to try and protect
themselves.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We don’t want them to be
hurt or die in a car accident, so we tell them to not drink and drive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So what is wrong with telling them not to
take drinks from people they don’t know, don’t get so drunk you pass out or are
unable to say no, or too drunk to care who they have sex with.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What is wrong with telling them not to hang
out or walk down a dark alley if they don’t have to, walk in well light areas
and travel in groups whenever possible.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It
is important to avoid problems and learn to protect themselves if a problem
does occur.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are things people can
do to deter a rapist, so it makes sense to tell our kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also we need to accept that some rapists are
not deterred no matter what someone does; they will find a way to do what they
want. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As parents we have the
opportunity to give our children the knowledge and tools to have the best out
of life, or we can leave them unprepared and vulnerable to people who don’t
care that your child deserves the best out of life, not the worst.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We also need to state that the rapist is responsible not
the victim.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Being raped does not make someone
a bad person, or valueless no matter what some people say.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also no one deserves to be raped.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">First I expect the kids to lie to stay out of trouble – most
people do, children and adults.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However,
that does not mean my children get away with it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Usually they lie about little things like who
left the hall light on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is usually, “Not
me”, “I don’t know” or any other answer like, “I forgot”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We tell them I don’t know or not me don’t
live here and get them to turn off the light or fix whatever the issue is.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">When my daughter started grade one she also started taking
things from school and telling us a friend gave it to her, or it was a prize
from school we quickly questioned it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
confronted her and made her tell the truth.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Part of what we did was go into the school and talk with her teacher to
find out the truth – in front of our daughter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>She had no choice but to confess to taking things and telling lies.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was quickly and firmly dealt with.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We consistently followed up to make sure she
did not start stealing again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We explained to our kids that telling us the truth is very
important, and that telling a lie results in a much worse punishment then
owning up and telling the truth in the first place.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also that once they lose our trust it is a
very hard thing to earn back. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My kids
know that telling the truth is important to us, even when we don’t like the
truth.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">So I was quite upset when my son lied about a big thing
tonight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My daughter came down stairs
and told me my son had a big red bump on his head.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She tends to tell on him a lot, but this time
she did the right thing and I told her so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My son comes down the stairs with his bangs hiding a great big red bump.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We asked what happened – I don’t
remember.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I don’t think so.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We quickly figured out he had been injured
about two hours earlier when he had been playing outside.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So now came the fun part of trying to piece
together what happened.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We could tell my son was reluctant to tell us what
happened.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Usually when he gets hurt he
is the first one at the door telling us he has been hurt.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I mean even bug bites he is at the door looking
for sympathy and attention.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We have some
“bad” kids in the area who like to hurt the other kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our son knows that we don’t want him playing
with them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We thought maybe he was
playing with one of them and was injured by one of them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That he was reluctant to tell us because he
knows he is not to go near those kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Nope, he was not playing with any of them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once we confirmed that he was not hurt by
another child we concentrated on getting the real story.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">The story we eventually heard was that he slipped and fell
and hit his head.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That it was just an
accident because he was running.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No way was
that story the truth, not where the big bump was. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I asked very specifically if he had fallen off
the fence and hit his head, and he said no. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However we let it go and my husband checked him
over to make sure he was ok.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He was made
to sit on the couch with an ice pack until bed time.</span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I waited until he was
in bed, safe.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He had gotten away with
it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not likely.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had a little talk with him explaining that
I knew he was lying and why.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I had a
very good idea of how he had hit his head but needed him to tell me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After about a half hour it all came out,
exactly what I expected.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He decided to
climb over the fence instead of using the gate, slipped and fell head first
onto a cement pad in our neighbour’s back yard.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>He knew he was not supposed to be climbing the fence, that’s why we have
gates.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So he hid the bump and did
everything he could to keep us from finding out.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">He was expecting a full out punishment for doing something
we have been telling him for years not to do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Instead he got me explaining to him how dangerous not telling us about
the head injury was.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With the fences we
have around the back yards he could have really hurt himself, get a concussion,
or died.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It took a lot but I think I got
through to him that he has to always let us know when he has been injured.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Even when he thinks he will be in trouble.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is way more important to be safe and
healthy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also I was very blunt about the
type of injury he had and how much worse it could have been.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most importantly I let him know that by
hiding it he could have made things much worse. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If we had to rush him to the hospital and had
no idea how he got hurt or when, how could we tell the doctors what they needed
to know?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I also calmly explained to him
how upset I was that he lied to us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
think I got through to him because I was more concerned about getting him to
understand, then punishing him for the lie.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There are still going to be consequences for telling us lies, but it is
far more important to me that I can trust him, and know that he understands why
the truth is so important. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I am still very upset that he lied to me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Getting angry with him, or punishing him this
time would backfire.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Being calm and
worried about how injured he was and how much worse it could have been was way
more effective this time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To be blunt, I
think that scared him far more than any possible punishment I could have given
him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was also very important for him
to realise that he cannot get away with lying to us.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We knew he lied, and figured out what
happened all on our own.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is no benefit
to lying to us, but there are to telling us the truth.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We just got a phone call from “Windows” telling us that
there was an emergency with our Windows.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>That there are security issues.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>First they had our phone number and last name – big deal you can get
that from any phone book.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Second – if there
was an issue with windows security how would they know to contact us?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why would they.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Next the guy would not tell us anything but that there was
an emergency with our security.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We don’t
depend on windows security – we have our own software we use to protect our
computers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also if someone was
contacting us from Windows they would know how many copies we have, what
computers they are on and all the “registration and any special identifiers we
have to access our computer”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This was a
scam to try and gain access to our computer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>They are trying to get our info to access the computer and our banking
info, emails and more.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: red;">PLEASE DONT FALL FOR IT IF YOU GET A PHONE CALL.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>ASK YOURSELF – WHY WHOULD THEY CALL ME!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>HOW WOULD THEY KNOW MY NAME AND PHONE NUMBER
BUT NOT MY WINDOWS REGISTRATION INFO?</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If
you did not register your windows program – then they would not have your name
or phone number.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also if they were from
Windows the phone number would not be “unavailable”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The person would identify who they are, their
job title and why they were calling – not that they were from Windows and that
there is an emergency.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Also if on the odd chance that Windows did actually call someone
they would tell the person to go to the Windows web site (not a web site they
will give you the URL for – you don’t want to open an unknown website from an
unknown person trying to convince you to give our your information or download
a program).</span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">We got a second call today – same people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Only this time there was a technical error or
issue with Windows.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They could not tell
us what the error was and hung up on us when we told them to tell us what exact
error they were calling about.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We
reported the calls to the local police.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>They are getting quite a few calls regarding this.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: red;">As per the local Hamilton police </span>–
The callers are currently identifying themselves as calling from Windows or
Microsoft, though they may change that at any time and claim to be calling
from any company.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Do not give the
callers any personal information, information about your computer or programs
on the computer, and do not give them any money or information about your
credit cards or bank accounts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a
complete scam to get people to pay them money to fix a non-existing issue.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also they are trying to get peoples
information to get into their computers, bank accounts and identity theft.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So do not give any information to these
people. If they don’t know your information – they are fake and just trying to
get it from you.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Also these scam artists are hitting a lot of people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you can get info from them such as a name,
phone number or way to find them great – make sure you let the police know any
info you get. However, they tend to hang up the phone instead of providing any
information, not even a name.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you
have given them any information about yourself, your computer software or
credit cards you need to report right away.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>As a rule do not ever give out your information in any shape or form
(name, birth date, SIN, bank information, credit cards, or programs on your
computer) unless you know exactly who you are giving it to and what it is being
used for – and never to someone who calls you or emails you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some people have been sent forms to fill in
and mail back asking for personal, banking and other information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Don’t fill them in because you don’t actually
know who is getting them. It is just another form of this scam and other
scams.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
