Today I want to share some warning signs that a teen is seriously considering a suicide attempt and some tools and techniques you can use to prevent teen suicides.
You've been reading about some pretty somber topics here recently, so I thought I'd share a video that made me laugh out loud again and again. Hope you enjoy!
Did you know that teen suicide is the THIRD leading cause of death among teenagers? Even more, it is the SECOND leading cause of death among college students! And statistics show (more…)
This little story has been going around the internet and has appeared in several newspapers. But just in case you missed it (as I had), I'd like to share it with you. It is kinda cute to us ole' timers, but there is a powerful message (more…)
Thought I'd take a break from the Autism & Education series today to share some news. If you aren't a big fan of CBS' prime time show Big Brother, you may not have heard that the winner promised he will give one fifth of his half-million dollar prize to support autism studies.
Ordinarily, I avoid these types of reality programs like the plague, but recently, my tv will only get NBC & CBS, for some reason.
So, though I only watched 3 times, I'm glad I saw the finale, because just before the vote is when the winner declared that he was going to give $100,000 of the half million he won to the Autism Foundation.
According to his Bio:

It'll be nice if it happens.
Wonder if he's aware of how much tax there is on $500,000 winnings?
Oh well, back to our regularly scheduled program tomorrow,
