Hi Everyone,
To those of use who have children in our lives, the lists below are something to make you
chuckle and think about:
1. You spend the first two years of their life teaching your
children to walk and
talk. Then you spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.
2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your own children.
3. Mothers of teens now know why some animals eat their young.
4. Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for
word what you shouldn't have said.
5. The main purpose of holding children's parties is to remind yourself
that there are children more awful than your own.
6. We childproofed our homes, but they are still getting in.
ADVICE FOR THE DAY: Be nice to your kids. They will choose your nursing
home one day.
AND FINALLY: If you have a lot of tension and you get a headache, do
what it says on the Aspirin bottle: "Take Two Aspirin" and
"Keep Away From Children"....8-)
You have a great week!

material things, that people expressed their love to you.

Diet Makes Entire Nations Less Clever: UN
The Straits Times Mar 26, 2004
A UN survey has found that the brainpower of entire nations has diminished because of a
shortage of the right vitamins, and slipping nutrients into people's food seems to be
the only solution.
A lack of iron lowers children's IQs by an average five to seven points, the report said.
A deficiency in iodine cuts it 13 more points.

Warning to parents: Frequent, unregulated use
of high-definition ultrasound may be harmful to children's
development
Is ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce diagnostic images of
developing babies safe? 'Ultrasound is a form of energy, and even at low levels,
laboratory studies have shown it can produce physical effects in tissue, such as
jarring vibrations and a rise in temperature,' the FDA said.
Some small, anecdotal studies in the United States and Europe have shown that it may affect
development, such as speech, in children.
