Home, home on the range.... Where the deer and the antelope play... Where seldom is heard a discouraging word and the skies are not cloudy all day. What is it about our home that makes it special? It's safe, secure and supportive...or it should be. When your home is filled with discouraging people (or your life is), it can be difficult to become rejuvenated, rested and ready to take on the day.

I shared my thoughts on how communication has changed in the last 50 years yesterday on TalkShoe. I shared how we communicate differently when we get older...
Last week I shared part one of Should Your Child Be on Facebook? I shared the benefits of allowing your older child to have a Facebook account. I'll bet there were some things that surprised you, weren't there? Well, this week, I might surprise you again when I share the drawbacks and even the dangers of having your child on Facebook.
