Wait, do MP3 files even have a URL though? Unless you can upload them here somehow?

I realize this is my second thread here, sue me, I just had to do this. :laugh: What is the craziest thing one of your relatives has ever done? Were you there to witness it in person? Did it effect you in any way? Long story short, me and my Mother use to live in a very nice gated apartment...

Anecdotal evidence really doesn't mean much. I often get told that I'm very polite and mature around adults, and I was never spanked. My Grandmother on the other hand used to slap my Mother and Aunt's around, literally leaving marks on their cheeks, and let's just say that my Aunt isn't known...

I'm trying to create a decent signature and all, however I'm having a bit of trouble. Can anyone tell me the type of link needed to get a [SOUND] tag to work properly? I tried youtube to no avail.

And in one fell swipe, you make all my complaints seem pathetic. ;) But seriously that's rough. Hopefully your far away from that man these days?

Thank you Mr. Muffin! <3

Ah, I see. Thank you for answering my curiosity. ;D From what I've seen of your posts you look like a nice person so I look forward to reading more of your posts and chatting with you in the future. ^^;;

I realize I'm in the minority on this issue, but I maintain that violence isn't the best way to get a child to behave, nor does it reinforce lasting manners or reinforce things you want the child to learn. Every single study I have ever seen on the subject indicates that positive reinforcement...

I don't like chatrooms, I always feel rushed to post something ~ ! D;

The great frozen north! LOL! ;D XD

Violence doesn't teach a child to behave, it simply teaches them to fear. Parents should set clear standards, explain to children why they are needed, and then set non-violent punishments on a sliding scale of severity if they misbehave. This way, they aren't doing it because they are in fear of...

I was wondering if you wear a Hijab or not? I apologize if this offends in any way or if you feel it isn't my place, it honestly just stems from curiosity. I go to a school in Northern New York actually and I have a really close friend who is Muslim who doesn't. But I know she has Muslim friends...
