Being a mother in the US
by InquiryMan ini found this interesting news on motherhood in the us vs other countries.. a woman in the us has a pregnancy death risk that is five times h igher than a woman living in bosnia, greece or italy, and ten times as big as an irishi woman, states the report on motherhood in various countries.. on child mortality_ eight in a thousand children in the us dies before the age of five, placing us on the same level as slovakia and montenegro.. an american child has twice the chance of daying before it is five than a child in finland, iceland, sweden or singapore.. only 61 per cent of children in the usa attend a kindergarten, making the united states number seven among developing countries, counting from the bottom that is.
no other industrialialised country has such a bad mother maternity arrangement as the us (considing both the length and salary).
norway is the country which has the honor of being number 1 on being a mother.. the maternity leave is currently at at 44 weeks with full salary (based on your job before the pregnancy.

Jehovah and the Munchausen Syndrome
by Terry inwhat is munchausen by proxy syndrome?.
one of the most harmful forms of child abuse, munchausen by proxy syndrome was named after baron von munchausen, an eighteenth-century german dignitary known for telling outlandish stories.
a parent will induce illness or injury in their own child and then take the victim in to the hospital to be seen as the heroic savior.. typically, the perpetrator feels satisfied when he or she has the attention and sympathy of doctors, nurses, and others who come into contact with him or her and the child.. because the parent or caregiver appears to be so caring and attentive, often no one suspects any wrongdoing.. .

First century vs Today
by gutted ini was discussing doctrine with my mom, to try to get her to see things in another way.
unfortunately things got heated.
she obviously has doubts, but seems to be of the thinking of better not to question and just go along.. she did make a good point though.
