Boundaries - Our Basic Instincts Q.) What are Boundaries? A.) Boundaries are parameters (even limits) we place on people to define what are acceptable and what are unacceptable behaviors from other people in our lives.   To set boundaries is really like our basic instincts to keep people in perspective per our comfort zones.  We just over think it giving ourselves time to dread the disagreeable thoughts and responses of other people.  Let's talk about setting and enforcing boundaries for self-protection against abuse. Let' discuss the "push back" we will receive from other peopl ..read more

I believe, our decision to stay was/is not just a ..read more

This episode is a chilling story about Child Safety, and need to entrust others and verify their behaviors regarding care for our children.  It is terribly disheartening to have to consider the horrific things some people will do to other human beings.  The the only thing I can find to highlight in this story is the fact that I am retelling it to increase awareness and prevention of child abuse.  In the words of Former US President Ronald Reagan we should always, "Trust but verify." This is a quote we can use for just about anything including in life the welfare of our children ..read more
