Interesting Posts and Notes

I finally settled on Feedly for my new RSS Feed Reader ... not as fast as my Google Reader ... but it is working.   http://www.feedly.com

My daughters just like to browse their friends blogs ... so they chose News Squares - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/newssquares-stylish-readi/mkmehbmdeabanfnddlekelahkaclfdhl ... which is a Chrome App.

AUTISTIC FOR A DAY  

One parents' experience with allergy testing ... I found this especially interesting because Story would become extremely ADHD behavior every time she had any milk products - even a tiny amount.  Sometimes she would also suffer a horrible "diaper rash" 48 hours after consuming the milk product - usually blisters that would go all the way up her back and stomach and would disappear as rapidly as they arrived 36 hours after they erupted - the only trace of their existence was the scabby sores left from the blisters that had popped.    It took me over a year to figure out what was causing the rashes.  ...  BUT  people would laugh when I told them about her behavior issues, because it was rare to associate behavior as part of allergy symptoms.





(The parameters they have to determine this do not include parents who prefer homeschooling ... but it is still an interesting list).

GERMAN HOMESCHOOLING FAMILY’S REQUEST FOR ASYLUM DENIED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT

(you really should be aware of this case ... at first glance it doesn't seem to be important to homeschoolers in America - but this is a crucial battle - it is a stepping stone for homeschooling to become illegal in the USA, by denying that parents have a right and obligation to determine how and where their children should be educated.)

Information about "Common Core"
If you home school - you NEED to be fighting this.   Learn what it is and why it is so dangerous.



And some of you might remember Kevin Sorbo of Hercules fame?  His wife homeschools their 3 kids and they are quite conservative.
Recently she has posted several posts about Common Core.
