Barbara Billingsley, 'Leave it to Beaver' Mom, Dead at 94 {AOL TV}
Oct 17th 2010 3:57AM Barbara Billingsley was always my favorite TV Mom. In a very strange twist of fate, it turns out that her nephew, Callan M. Billingsley, San Antnonio, TX. is our lawyer - how cool is that? He tells us that she was every bit as nice, charming and sweet in real life as her TV character was. She will be sorely missed by everyone who watched that show.

Hot flashes? Try rhubarb {That's Fit}
Oct 4th 2006 2:09PM When I was suffering menopause I discovered that Vitamin E -- 1,000 to 2,000 USP and one Selenium pill per day did the job admirably. Advantage over Rhubarb is obvious -- no baking!
Are kids getting brattier? {ParentDish}
Aug 20th 2006 11:06AM Just one more comment in response to one above. I realize that some special needs children can be harder to teach manners, and to expect the same behavior one would from more normal children of the same age. I see those kids in restuarants all the time and with a very few exceptions, most of them were much better behaved than their unchallenged peers.
I must add that my son has ADHD, and he was still made to adhere to the same rules I was taught and he did learn that if he didn't behave, the punishment would be enforced without exception. I didn't let up or slack off on him. I realized I had to just work a lot harder at it, and I'm so glad I did!
Are kids getting brattier? {ParentDish}
Aug 20th 2006 10:54AM I had my son when I was 21, and our first grandchild was just born last month. I raised my son to be as well behaved as possible at all times, but most especialy in public. He and his wife will be raising their son the same way. When my son was small, if he didn't stop acting up in public, he was taken outside, into the restroom, or anywhere I or his Dad could give him a talking to. And he knew if he didn't want some sort of punishment (a favorite toy taken away or something like that), he had to stop being bratty. I think it's ridiculous that I have to wear ear plugs just to get through the grocery store, and have had to use them in more than a few restaurants. We seldom eat out anymore because people refuse to keep their children in tow, much less quiet. I don't see how anyone can enjoy shopping, eating out, or anything else with all that mayhem going on. I was raised in a musical family -- my Mom played piano and my Dad played steel guitar in a local band. I am more than used to loud speakers, etc., so it's not like my ears are ultra sensitive or anything. It's just that for some reason I cannot fathom, it has become the "norm" for people to let their little "darlings" squeal like pigs right in other people's ears, yell, scream, run right in front of others nearly knocking them over, trampling on their toes, etc. If they think that's "cute," they need to think again! My favorite sign about such neglected kids is posted in our car salesman's office. It says, "Unattended children will be sold as SLAVES!" Ah, a man after my own heart!
