I thought that Putin gently handed Tucker's butt to him.
It was refreshing to hear a competent, intelligent leader speak it a way that was not idiotic sound bites.
Throughout the interview, I thought Putin really needed to move more slowly so that Tucker could keep up.
Note to self, I need to study and learn more Russian history.
There are several things going on here.
First, it's a heart issue with you daughter. If she is stating/pretending there are 7 objects instead of the actual six. She feels free to lie and deceive your wife to get her way. This needs to be addressed with discipline.
Second, boredom. Sounds like she is able to blow thru the assignments quickly. What do you/your wife do when bored? Do you or your wife whine about being bored? Where is she learning the word "bored"?
At our house, the word was struck from our vocabulary as it was expressing the mark of a weak mind. Imaginative play would often consist of a cardboard box and duct tape at this age (time machines, shields, swords, star trek transportors, etc were the normal)
What is your daughter interested in? Make a list. If she's curious about something - figure out how to feed the curiosity. If she's just pretending to be bored, again, it's a heart issue.
Third, I'd check on curriculum. I think there might be a mismatch between your wife's teaching style and your daughter's learning ststyle.
Your daughter runs your wife.
Cathy Duffy works through this (101 Home school curriculum picks). Just because a curriculum is highly rated, doesn't mean it's a fit for your kid. Example, for us, anything abeka was usually a no-go, so I would look for patriotic Christian books elsewhere.
Caution. A change in curriculum will not address the underlying heart issue.
I stream what and when I want so my TV usage is very curtailed.
However, a few years back, I was doing hospice care on the weekends for my mom. She only had network TV. This cartoon accurately depicted what occurred. My mom was hooked on the TV, so turning it off was not permitted by her. So, I found my self arguing with the TV so the programming would be interrupted.
It was really bad. I am not surprised people were brainwashed. The people who watched the network news were inundated every 5-10 seconds (I was counting) with a lie - either outright or something based on a faulty premise.
It's like living in the college dorms.
There were certain things (Vacuums, board games, iron/ironing board, air poppers, etc) available at the front desk that everyone could "check out" for x amount of hours and use.
Pain in the a$$.
You were lucky if it was available on your time table. Broken items (and thus permanently unavailable) were common.
It spurred you on to being self-sufficient or simply doing without.
OTOH, the vacuum made a lot of sense in this type of situation.
Amber, Did you call the cops? From your description of what you saw, my instincts are on high alert. None of this seems right.
Maybe it's nothing, maybe the kid is being trafficked. If it were your kid, what would you want someone to do?
If it is really just a creepy/awkward grandpa/uncle, ultimately they would be glad someone is looking out for the kid.
I was thinking the same thing.
If hqc is the Sunday to Sunday Drug, and hqc kills cancer cells, one would logically expect to see a corresponding low rate of cancer in these areas.
Dark thought - unless the low rate of cancer occurrence information is being suppressed...
Since when are mall security guards responsible for day care? Unless he was raping the kid during off hours......
And where the heck did the other 6 men come from???
Was this kid being pimped out?!?!
This story doesn't make sense.
Angel, I totally believe that this is possible.
Do I have proof, no.
Instead, I am looking at the predictive programming that is out there.
Have you seen No Time to Die (007)? Nanotechnology programmed to kill based on genetic markers.
Have you read Shift by Hugh Howey (part of the Wool/Silo series)? Nanotechnology. Whatever can be programmed to stitch body parts together, can be programmed to unstitch/break apart said body parts.
I believe that what we see in the realm of entertainment is probably 15-20 years behind what is actually possible.
I have heard that, too.
I'm in a blue state. So, homeschool (450+ families - 2 hour radius) and church (800+ members) no out of the ordinary deaths. Out of the ordinary defined as being less than ~80 y.o. or as a result of a post-covid/vaxx illness.
In both communities, a funeral would be well known. I teach at the home school and this would be communicated to the teachers. At church, we pray for the families - also if the person who died is not a member but the surviving family member is, we would pray.
Family, extended family, friends are all over the country (red & blue states).
The only out of the ordinary death has been a family member (20 y.o. who died in a firearm accident).
No post-covid/vaxx cancers or other illnesses (new or returning) are being mentioned.
EDIT: Just remembered. Not a death, but a guy I know took the shot. Said he got myocarditis. Now says he is cured. Sounds like b.s. to me, but this is what he said. Blue state. J&J shot.
Merf,
I'm with you. If the vaxx is as deadly as is being touted, my social circles should be imploding. They are not.
Why/why not?
It is too easy to say that only some batches were contaminated, my circles cross multiple states. It is improbable that they all received uncontaminated vaxxes, unless the vaxx IS mostly harmless.
If a 5th grader confused Mexico and Egypt on a basic geography test, it would be marked as incorrect.
