Saturday, August 9, 2003One method for dealing with abuseI learned this method from the book Coach Yourself to Success, by Talane Miedaner. Ms. Miedaner learned this technique at Coach University, where she received her life-coach training, and I feel it's helpful for us as one method of teaching others that we are not to be abused. It's a four-step... Sign in to see full entry.posted by kidnykid at 9:42 AM Comments (0) (link) Male-bashing: Another point of viewGet set for another strong point of view on male-bashing. I have already shared my own perspective about male-bashing in my blog Potpourri (accessible through my BN profile - click onto my BN "handle" kidnykid at the top of this blog). I also feel that male-bashing can become abusive if we let it go...

What makes this psionics business interesting from a...

I feel strongly that we are all at risk of being the victims of domestic violence - in both the form of emotional abuse and the form of physical assault and battery. Of the two...

I used a couple of examples: my former boyfriend with his...

Someone wisely asked just what "psionics" are. Although the definition left in the comments section of my last post is accurate enough, I know my former boyfriend would beg to differ about some of the specifics of that definition. For those...

I may not have; I don't remember, quite frankly. The point is that there are a number of new readers here on BN that might need the information contained in this story. Colleen Stan was hitchhiking to her home in...

I will deal with each one separately so you have an opportunity to read whatever you might like without wasting your time with irrelevant material. I might have written about this earlier when last I posted...

Just this evening - a few minutes ago, as a matter of fact, I was on my ex's site. Actually, he has several - three on Geocities alone - and I was on one of the Geocities sites. Now, I've posted his...

The parents of one of his charges - a Down's-syndrome boy being driven to a public school - were told that their youngster was misbehaving on the bus, so...

About this BlogThe name of the post is derived from a Francis Schaeffer book, and intended to rebut something I'd seen on the Internet. The blog itself is about what I've learned about relationships from the ones I've had, and the ones I've observed. It will not be pleasant to read, and might wander off-topic occasionally, but is intended to be a long-term blog reading like a public journal. Links |
