Baby Talk...Goo Goo GaaAAAA!!
I hate when people talk in that annoying baby talk. How do you feel about it? I am a mother who believes it will ruin my child's speech learning ability. I do think that it will mess up how he thinks words sound. I am not the only one right? My sons father, his mother does this all the time...should I tell her to stop? I think I will hurt her feelings, but I am his mother, its my choice right? I want my son to learn the correct way, that's not bad I don't think, right? I have never used baby talk toward my son, nor do I plan to. I talk to him as a human being, he's learning from listening to us speak, so y would we teach him baby talk? its not correct.
Brittney, how do you handle with it?)) You are really strong person)) It's hard not to geegle when seen a baby, so I can understand your father and his mom)
Just kidding) I dont think it can harm speaking skills of your baby - we all were grown by parents who geegled with us (I definitly was), and as I know first speaking skills don't depends on your talk to baby. It more depends on motility skills and the whole developmental level.
Other side is that you think of your son as a person - and you are totally right with it.
For me it's hard to use baby talk with my nephew while he is looking at me like he understands everything...

Yes, and my son looks at me and I know he is taking in what I am saying and he is learning from my words. So if I was to use made up words with him, I believe it would hurt him more than help. They learn from you, by watching you and listening to you.

Thank You. lol And yes, I think he needs to be spoken to as a person in regular English, none of this baby talk stuff.
I agree with you. We definitely saw a difference in the speech of our older children compared to our younger children. With our older children we spoke to them with regular words etc. but my husband and older children slipped up with the younger children and would speak some baby talk, they struggle with some of their sounds at 5 and 7. It's not that they cannot say the sounds they just have the bad habit of saying sounds incorrectly. I think the baby talk played a part in it, since we didn't have any issues with the older ones.
Yeah, I think it does play a role in how they learn to pronounce words. Its why I am against it. I don't want my son to have a hard time when he starts talking, or in school.
Brittney, you'll soon be happy when he'll keep silence)). Dont worry much - he will start talking, and you'll cant stop him (I know it because of my nephew))
It's true once they start they don't stop! lol!
My MIL does this retarded baby talk gibberish bs to him. He is 14 months and has looked at her like she has 6 heads since I can remember. Now he thinks it hilarious because she legit looks/sounds like a complete idiot. I do not talk to him like a baby. I never have. I never will. I'd talk to your hubby. But let other people do it. They look like idiots.

I can understand your frustration. I have had to say things to a friend of mine who used baby talk with my middle child. Her speech was delayed and we were having issues. I still struggle with people letting her use "baby" talk at 2. I make her say the words the right way. I would just tell them that you would like them to use language to help the child, not the gibberish.
I'm not fond of baby talk either. I also am not the world's greatest at handling social situations, so take this advice with a grain of salt. I would politely ask her to cease the baby talk with an explanation, explaining that you aren't trying to hurt her feelings, just do the best for your child. I would also probably come with research in hand in case she tried the "Well I did it with all my kids and they turned out just fine!" card. That is not a valid excuse, imho.
lol that's a good idea to have the papers to show her. I will do that!
you are so right i also dont talk in baby language.it will seriously become hurdle in her learning ability

Janee Thompson Named SEC Player of the Week
LEXINGTON, Ky. – Kentucky women's basketball junior point guard Janee Thompson was named the Southeastern Conference's Player of the Week after leading the Wildcats to two crucial wins last week over Alabama and Ole Miss.
Thompson, a native of Chicago, averaged 14.5 points and a team-high 6.5 assists in helping UK begin SEC play at 2-0 for the first time since 2012-13. She was critical in UK's two come-from-behind victories as she combined for 27 of her 29 points all in the decisive second halves.
In the league lid lifter at Alabama, the Tide led by as many as 10 points (42-32) with 16:54 to go in the game, before Thompson rattled off seven straight points to help pull the Cats within three. She went on to chart her first career double-double (points/assists) with 12 points and a career-high 10 assists. It marked UK's first points/assists double-double since Carly Ormerod vs. Ball State on March 19, 2007 and most assists in a single game since Omerod's 11 in 2007.
Against Ole Miss, she posted 15 of her team-high 17 points in the second half, including the go-ahead layup with 2:22 to go in the game. She also added three assists and two steals.
Overall, Thompson is UK's third-leading scorer this season with 10.6 points per game. She also dishes out a team-high 3.0 assists per game. This marks her second SEC Player of the Week honor of the season.
No. 11/11 Kentucky (13-2, 2-0 SEC) continues conference play Thursday, Jan. 8 when it plays host to the Auburn Tigers (9-6, 0-2 SEC) at 7 p.m. ET in Memorial Coliseum. The game will be streamed live on the SEC Network+ and WatchESPN with Jeff Piecoro and Christi Thomas calling the action. It also will be broadcast live on the UK Radio Network with Neil Price. Tickets are available on UKHoopstix.com or Ticketmaster.com.

AN: Continues in my A/U where A Kent Christmas, A New Kingdom and Career Day takes place.
Out to Eat
"Table for ten," a proud father said.
The hostess, a young college student, looked up at the tall, handsome built man of 6'4 with muscles that were barely contained in his dark suit. Besides him was a tall, prim looking woman. She was a looker, even with glasses, long, black hair swept back in a long French braid and a long spring dress that hid any figure she has.
With them, was another woman; perhaps the prim looking woman's sister. They looked alike but the other woman dressed fashionably in a figure hugging dress and her dark hair bouncing in a sea of curls. With them, the hostess assume were the pair's children but that couldn't be possible. There was a young man about the father's height wearing a cap and gown. College graduations were happening today. The hostess couldn't believe he was the son of the man and woman before her. They looked too young to have a child graduating from college. With the college graduate, was a teenage girl just as tall as the prim woman. There were two other kids (a boy and girl) who were in their tweens and two young boys too young to be in school. Hearing the young children chatter, the hostess realized the other woman with them were the children's Aunt Donna. There was an elderly man with them. Perhaps he was grandfather of the children. The hostess wasn't sure but the kids didn't resemble the older man at all.
"Uh, yes. This way."
The hostess lead the family to two tables by the window. They didn't have tables that could seat ten people so the hostess improvised. The hostess pulled the chairs away from the two tables. Seeing what she was doing, the father and college grad pushed the tables together and rearranged the chairs around the tables for her.
"Thanks." Once the family was seated, the hostess passed out the menu and left the family to decide what they will eat.
"Congratulations Kai," Donna said. "Graduating at the top of your class. What's next? Grad school? Traveling?"
"I'm gonna travel over the summer and start my graduate studies in the fall," Kairos answered.
"Just because you are going to travel alone, it doesn't mean you engage in any heroics. Only do so unless absolutely necessary," Clark said to Kairos and to Bruce he said, "He is not to go on some special mission for you, Bruce. Kairos is to relax and have fun."
"And try not to have a girlfriend in each city like our godfather in his younger days," Lyta teased.
"Very funny," Bruce said dryly.
Donna took the subject off Bruce Wayne and onto her sister and brother-in-law. "Did you see the look on the hostess face?" Donna laughed. "She was checking you guys out."
"Yes. A lot of parents looked at us that way," Diana said. "It's not our fault we age slowly and we don't look like parents of a college graduate."
"Age slowly?" Bruce chuckled. "Since when? You two look the same as when I met you all those years ago."
Three-year-old Christopher, the newest addition of the Kent family, squirmed in his seat. The little boy had to go to the bathroom ever since the end of his big brother Kairos college graduation. He tried to hold it in while they were in the restaurant because he didn't want to go in a place he had never been before but he couldn't hold it anymore.
Christopher tugged his father's arm. His father looked down at him. "Daddy, I have to go to the bathroom."
"Restroom," Clark corrected his son. "When we are outside the home, it's restroom." Clark patted his son's head. "Okay. Let's go." He looked to his five year old son, Bruce, named after his godfather who he was sitting next to. "Bruce, do you have to go to the restroom?"
Elder Bruce raised an eyebrow. "You better not be talking to me, Kent."
Clark's lips twitched. "No, I meant my son and your namesake."
Young Bruce shook his head. "I went before we left home."
"Okay." Clark and Christopher rose from their seats. Taking his son's hand, Clark walked him to the restroom.
The restroom was crowded with men in the stalls and at the urinals. Christopher rarely went out in public. He was still working on controlling his strength and keeping quiet on who his parents were. It was a lot for the three-year-old to handle. He didn't understand how his older siblings were able to keep a big secret.
Clark lead his son to a urinal. Christopher looked up at his father confused. He didn't know what this was used for. He was used to the large bowl with water in it in his bathroom at his home. Not this weird looking thing that smelled and didn't have water in it.
Clark understood his son's confusion. "You can go here, too. Want me to show you how?"
Christopher shook his head. "There're too many people here."
Clark saw a man leaving a stall. "Okay. We'll go here." Clark lead his son inside a stall and closed the door. "Better?"
Christopher looked at the toilet bowl and then at his father. "It doesn't look like the one at home," Christopher complained.
Clark chuckled. For one, the toilet at their home was cleaner. "No, but it works just the same. Here. I'll show you." Clark unzipped his pants.
Christopher always thought his father was a big man. Christopher could barely reach his father's kneecaps. He was so tall and Christopher always had to look up to him. It kind of hurt his neck sometimes when he did so. His father was also strong, too. He saw his Daddy lift lots of heavy objects like cars and tanks on TV. He was certain his Daddy was the strongest man in the world. Now Christopher was learning something else about his father. Christopher's eyes widen in shock when he saw his father unzipped his pants and pull out his penis. "Daddy," Christopher gasped, "you have the biggest penis in the world!"
Clark stiffened before he broke out into a smile. "Uh, yeah." He could hear the men outside the stall chuckling. Sure it was cute his son made that comment. He was an innocent three year old. He thought anything bigger than him was huge. But Clark also found it a little embarrassing.
At the table, Kairos started laughing. It wasn't like him to eavesdrop. Like his father, he could hear several conversations going on at once and could zone them out but sometimes he would hear things he couldn't ignore. Kairos was laughing so hard, tears sprang from his eyes. It caused his family to look at him as if he was crazy.
"What's so funny, Kai?" Diana asked her eldest son.
Kairos struggled to get his laughing under control. "You won't believe what Chris just said to Dad."
"Tell us," Donna said. She didn't want to be left out of the fun. "Don't keep us in suspense."
"There are children at the table," Kairos said as a warning to what he heard.
Lyta grinned mischievous. "Oh, no. You are not keeping this to yourself. Say it in Themysciran."
"You can't do that," Jon protested. "Lara and I won't understand it."
"Not you since you haven't paid enough attention in your lessons," Lara said smugly. "But I will know."
Kairos chucked, "I don't think so, Lara. This isn't a word you have learned in Themysciran."
"I wanna know," Five-year-old Bruce said. He didn't want to be left out.
Diana crossed her arms doubtful what Christopher said was as funny as Kairos was making it. "Just what is it my son said to his father, Kai?"
Kairos answered in Themysciran. Lyta put her hands over her mouth in shock. Donna burst out laughing while Diana's cheeks turned red.
"Daddy has the biggest pants?" Lara said confused. "I don't get it."
Bruce Wayne nearly choked on his water as he figured out what his godson said to his father.
"Well, Diana?" Donna teased her sister. "Is it true?"
Diana didn't answer as she swallowed her glass of water and signaled the waitress for another.
"No wonder you have so many kids," Donna teased. "Are you sure you're not pregnant now?"
Now completely red in the face, Diana slammed her glass down breaking it. "No, I am not!"
At that moment, Clark and Christopher returned. Clark took one look at everyone at the table and realized they knew what transpired in the restroom. Christopher climbed into his seat not at all embarrassed with what he said while Clark slipped in his seat by Diana feeling on the spot. He could hear the chuckling around the room as the men from the restroom tell their wives and girlfriends what they heard. He could hear a male staff member telling his workers in the kitchen what he heard. He knew they were being looked at now and could hear the words.
"He is a big man with his height and muscles. I bet he is big down south."
"Look at all the kids at the table. Oh, he's big all right and his wife is one lucky woman."
"Damn lucky wife."
"Her lucky? What about him? His wife is hot!"
"Look how prim she looks. I bet if she takes off her glasses, lets her hair down, she would be hot in the sack. Damn lucky man indeed."
"I bet if he is big, his son has to be big, too. I wonder if I can get his number."
"Kal?" Diana pulled his attention back. "What's the matter?"
Clark hid his face behind the menu. "Let's order, eat and get out of here as soon as possible."
As far as Clark was concerned, they weren't coming back here anytime soon!
Later that evening, Clark sat in bed reading. Diana stepped out of the bathroom, having just finished her nightly shower. She removed her robe and slipped into bed with her husband. She laid her head against his arm. Clark started chuckling. "What's so funny?"
"I was thinking about what Chris said earlier."
"Oh, that." Diana closed her eyes as she tried to sleep. "Well, Chris is three. He doesn't understand. Everything bigger than him is huge."
"Maybe." Clark closed his book and tossed it aside. "So, Diana, your son said I have the biggest penis in the world. Wanna see?"
Diana chuckled. "Why? Has it gotten bigger since the last time I saw it?"
"I'll let you be the judge." He pulled off the covers, revealing to Diana he wasn't wearing any underwear under the sheets. "Well?"
"Hmm?" Diana said giving Clark's penis a closer inspection. "It looks big." She gave it a caress with her strong hand. "Well, would you look at that? It grew." She caressed it again. "It's getting thicker, too." She gave it another caress. "Look. It's growing again."
"I suggest we do something about it," Clark suggested. "If it gets too big, it could be trouble."
"And we wouldn't want that," Diana said innocently as she caressed it with more vigor. "That would be a bad thing. As defender of this planet, I will do what I must to take care of it."
"Even if you get pregnant again?" Clark asked.
Diana scoffed at the idea. "It's been three years, Kal. I think my body is done with having babies. Of course," she smirked. "It may not be my body. Maybe you don't have it anymore. Can you give it as good as you have in the past or are you getting too old?"
"If that isn't an invitation…" Clark pounced Diana and covered her lips with his.
Nine months later, Clark and Diana welcomed their daughter and seventh child, Lynda.

How To Face Our Egypt (38 of 47) by Chris Brown
This content is part of a series.How To Face Our Egypt (38 of 47)
Series: The Genesis Project
Pastor Chris Brown
Genesis 42
Skeletons in the closet?
Genesis 42, John 4:1-42, John 21:15-19
- The past can leave us paralyzed with fear,
or paralyzed with guilt.
- Not dealing with the past robs us of our future.
We end up:
burying it
blaming others
blaming ourselves
Cleaning out the closet:
1 John 1:9, 1 John 2:1-2, Luke 19:10, Hebrews 7:24-25, 1 Peter 2:24, Revelation 12:10,
1 Peter 5:8, John 10:10, Romans 7:24-25, Romans 8:1-2, 1 Timothy 2:5-6
1. We have to face the truth.
2. We have to accept the truth.
3. We have to accept grace, not guilt.
Living with the door open:
Your skeletons can be Satan's greatest weapon,
or God's most powerful tool.
Food for Thought
(Questions and Scriptures for further personal study)
1. We've all heard the quote that "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." Part of "leaving our Egypt (our past) behind" is committing to new behaviors aimed at new results and growth.

Customer Testimonials
Tomorrow I pick up my new Ford Fiesta St Line and I am so excited! The Salesman and the New Car Sales Manager were so helpful, as I'd never purchased a car by myself, but they made it so simple and easy. Although being new, Mark was so knowledgeable and gave me lots of information and was also very enthusiastic. They also gave me a great finance deal which I am really pleased about. All the staff are friendly and approachable and always give you a warm welcome. I will definitely be recommending my friends and family here in the future. From one happy customer :)
E Kennedy, Ford Cheltenham
Your service department showed a quality that has almost disappeared - good manners and genuine concern - it was a pleasure to deal with them plus my car was immaculate after a wash and vacuum - full credit to that operator too!!
G Onions, Ford Cheltenham
Bought a Ford last year and the experience was superb - due mainly the salesman. When we had a problem with the car two weeks ago I rang him up and he bent over backwards to help. I took it in and after they discovered the clutch had gone, he then helped us sort out a new car . He made the transition seamless and pain free. He understood exactly what we wanted and found us the perfect car - a brand new B Max auto. If that was not enough , he loaned us his personal car for a few days till a courtesy car was available. That put him out in his private life!!! We have just picked it up and again a smooth takeover - he was thorough and painstaking to ensure all was explained to us and all paperwork completed. Thank you!!!
S Bennett, Ford Cheltenham
Just bought my third car from Bristol Street Motors Ford in Cheltenham, what a fantastic experience yet again from the Sales Executive, nothing was too much for him, today he drove me to work to collect my insurance because I decided to no do Ford insure, he then personally delivered my new car to my work with a smile on his face, making sure I was happy. The whole ream couldn't do a enough for me, making sure I could get out my finance agreement with the old car. I only looked round on the Saturday. and now I have a 12 plate Ford Fiesta on my drive. Thank you so much to Cheltenham Ford!
S Grimmiett, Ford Cheltenham
I just wanted to let someone know what fantastic service I received at your Ford Cheltenham branch. I'd only recently passed my driving test and needed to buy my first car. I was completely clueless as to what was involved in buying a new car, and knew nothing about cars in general. The lady who helped me, was the absolute epitome of kindness. She understood that I was new to vehicles and made everything easy for me to understand. She encouraged me to think about what would be best for me, and when she realised how nervous I was about test-driving a car she drove me to a quieter area so that I felt less daunted while driving the car. I cannot thank her enough for making this a much smoother process for me. I genuinely feel like I've made the right decision with the car I have chosen - I love it! Somebody please get her a medal, she's amazing.

Defensive end Forrest Mason has changed schools. Where is the 6-foot-3, 234-pounder and what's the latest with his recruitment?
"I changed schools from St. John's Catholic Prep to Frederick," he said. "Things are going pretty good. It was for financial reasons. It's been good though. I'm playing defensive end and a little tight end and everything is about the same.
"We open our season on September 5th against Tuscarora. We've had a high intensity practice and I think we're going to be pretty good as a team. The coaches are on me all the time and I'm improving."
On the recruiting front, Mason sits on two offers from East Carolina and Connecticut.
"I still have those offers," he said. "I went to James Madison and my coach said they are going to offer me too.
"I'm still getting letters from other schools who say they want to see me first three games. Those include California, Syracuse, Minnesota, Rutgers, North Carolina and Virginia."
Mason maintains there are no favorites at this time.
"I don't have a favorite and I haven't made any plans for visits this fall. I'm planning to wait until after the season to do that."

Lana Commission by sab-mWatch
©2013-2017 sab-m
Haha, true story: I just went looking for the matching Lana Del Rey reference pic... and could not find it because I am a huge dork. (Hi, Lana Lang!)
But in my defense, I am mainly a Marvel girl. (nothing against DC, though!)
But in my defense, I am mainly a Marvel girl. (nothing against DC, though!)
well done great color. great body figure
OMG *-* She's so sexy good job
Huh, same red undies and everything. I see someone has respect for the classic look!
Very cute!
was she inspired by smallville's lana? it looks a lot like that actress. beautiful work!
It's really difficult for me shading and lighting paintings as you did, for sure I've learned a bit more with this, thanks!
So pretty!
Spetacular work!
Ach! I don't like Supahman franchise and Lana - for real! But this artwork is truly amazing. I want you to teach me, master!
very pretty!
Well, the upper body, hair, eyes, sheets and shirt looks amazing.
Gorgeous aside from the fact that, yeah, her waist/hip thing... ;-;
Her shirt is perfect! Points for taking the time to make a proper Superrman shirt and her eyes are pretty gorgeous, great work
Except for the whole waist/hip thing, this is very lovely.
This looks great, but I think the anatomy on her hips-waist area is waaaay too exaggerated. Anyways, just my 2 cents ^_^
this is pretty AWESOME! I just find the underwear against her body a bit weird, i think it should be more rounded at the hips (probably it looks flat because of the style, if so, do not mind this comment xD) other than that it looks perfect!
This is very beautiful! She looks pretty comfortable.
Super girl !
awesome !
adore it!
I love the colors
wow, such beautiful flow and movement and lighting. Your the best!

Things You Can Do to Support A Person With Difficult Behaviors
- Bertina Hawkins
- 2 years ago
- Views:
1 10 Things You Can Do to Support A Person With Difficult Behaviors David Pitonyak Supporting a person with difficult behaviors begins when we make a commitment to know the person. Sadly, it is often the case that the people who develop an intervention to stop someone from engaging in difficult behaviors do not know the individual in any meaningful sense. Instead, they see the person as a someone (or something) that needs to be fixed, or modified. But attacking a person s behavior is usually ineffective and always disrespectful. Think about someone you know who engages in difficult behaviors. Ask yourself, "What kind of life is this person living?" Consider how you would feel if you lived the person's life. How would you behave? What follows are 10 things you can do to support a person whose behavior is troubling you. It is not a list of "quick fix" strategies for stopping unwanted behavior. It is a list of ideas for uncovering the real things that a person might need so that you can be more supportive. 1. Get to know the person. The first step in supporting a person with difficult behaviors almost seems too obvious to state: get to know the person! It is too often the case that p eople who develop interventions to eliminate unwanted behavior do not know the person in any meaningful sense. They know the person as the sum total of his or her labels, but know little about the person as a whole human being. Make a point of spending time with the person in places that he or she enjoys, during times of the day that he or she chooses. It should be a comfortable place where both of you can feel safe and relaxed (e.g., a quiet room, a nice restaurant, a walking trail in a nearby park). At a time that feels right (you will have to trust your intuition on this one), tell the person about your concerns and ask for permission to help (it's rude not to). If the person has no formal means of communication, ask anyway. Sometimes people understand what is being said, but they have a difficult time letting David Pitonyak 1
2 It s almost too obvious to state: spend time with the person others know that they understand. The important point, always, is to ask the person for permission to stick your nose into their business, even at the risk of seeming silly in front of people who think the person cannot understand up from down (they re usually wrong). 2. Remember that all behavior is meaningfull. Difficult behaviors are "messages" which can tell us important things about a person and the quality of her life. In the most basic terms: difficult behaviors result from unmet needs. The very presence of a difficult behavior can be a signal that something important that the person needs is missing. Here are some examples of the kinds of the kinds of messages a person may be conveying with his or her behavior: I m lonely. Michael s older brother was invited over to a friend's house for a sleep over. Michael is never invited to the homes of children because he goes to a "special" school 35 miles from his neighborhood. Michael has no friends to play with. "I'm bored." Roberta's sister is a doctor at the local hospital. She has her own house and is her parent's pride and joy. Roberta works all day at a sheltered workshop where she packages plastic forks and knives. She lives at home and is tired of packaging. She wants to get a real job. Roberta's case manager says she day dreams too much. "I have no power." John likes to sit down on the sidewalk when the bus arrives to take him to school. His mother becomes very angry and tells him that there will be no dessert when he gets home. John laughs when the bus driver threatens him with time out. "I don't feel safe." Conrad uses a wheelchair and is not able to defend himself adequately from attacks by another man. Conrad worries that he will be hurt and often cries when left alone. Staff think he has a psychiatric illness. "You don't value me." Gloria has a "severe reputation." People from all over the state have heard stories about her terrible tantrums. No one knows that she is a very caring person who worries about environmental issues. The only part of Gloria people pay attention to is her problem behaviors. David Pitonyak 2
3 "I don't know how to tell you what I need." June does not know how to use words or sign to let other people know what she was thinking. She lives in an institution where she learned that the best way to get people's attention was to bite your arms. It hurts, but it is the only thing that "works." "My ears hurt." Walter hits his ears with his fists. His job coach wants to stop and wrote a behavior plan for "not hitting." Weeks later, at a scheduled doctor's appointment, it was learned that Walter had a low-grade ear infection. Anti-biotics cleared up the infection and Walter has stopped hitting his ears. My body does not move like I want it to. Aron wanted to order a hamburger at a the restaurant, but his mouth kept saying, I want pizza. When the waiter brought him pizza, he became so upset he knocked it on the floor. Later, at home, he typed to his mom, I wanted a hamburger but I couldn t stop saying, I want pizza. Aron experiences differences from other people in the way his body moves (see Anne Donnellan and Martha Leary s book, Movement Differences and Diversity in Autism/Mental Retardation: Appreciating and Accommodating Persons with Communication and Behavior Challenges for additional information (ordering information on the last page). Obviously there are many needs that a person may be conveying with her behaviors. A single behavior can "mean" many things. The important point is that difficult behaviors do not occur without reason. All behavior, even if it is selfdestructive, is "meaning-full." Ask the person (and/or the person s supporters) what he or she needs to be happy. Find out who he or she counts on in a pinch. How often does he or she see loved ones and friends? What are his or her favorite activities? Where does he or she like to go? Ask the person what leads to unhappiness. Who are the people who the person does not like? How often does he or she see them? What are the person s least favorite activities? Since many people are experiencing physical and/or psychiatric distress, it s also important to know something about the person s physical and emotional health. Does the person have a way to let others know what he or she needs and feels? Is the person experiencing physiological or psychological distress? What kinds of medications is he or she taking? Do they help? Finally, if you re stumped, ask, Are there times when the person exhibits this behavior frequently? and Are there times when person exhibits this behavior infrequently or not at all? Answering these two questions can tell you a great deal about the meaning of the person s behavior. With time, you should be able to see a discernable pattern. For example, you might find that the person engages in the difficult behavior in the morning hours, but rarely in the afternoon. Ask, What happens in the morning that might cause the person to behave this way? or, conversely, What is happening in the afternoon that causes the person not to behave this way? (Hint: it often has something to do with the things a person is being asked to do, and/ or who is asking the person to do it). 3. Help the person to develop a support plan. People who exhibit difficult behaviors are usually subjected to a behavior plan at some point in their lives. It is rare that they are asked if they want a plan, let alone invited to the meetings where one is developed. Instead, a plan is developed by strangers (e.g., the agency behaviorist who has spent less than two hours "observing" the person). Think about how difficult it would be to stop a behavior that a stranger thinks you should stop. It can be difficult enough to stop behaviors we choose to stop (e.g, smoking, excessive eating)! Instead of a behavior plan to "fix" the person, help the person and the person's supporters to develop a support plan that reflects a real and authentic life. John and Connie Lyle O'Brien suggest the following questions for building a support plan. Note how different these questions are from those we typically ask, such as "How can we reduce this person's problem behaviors?" or "How can we manage this behavior?" 1. How can we help the person to achieve health and wellbeing? 2. How can we help the person to maintain his or her relationships and make new ones? 3. How can we help the person to increase his or her presence and participation in everyday community life? 4. How can we help the person to have more choices in life? David Pitonyak 3
4 5. How can we help the person to learn skills that enhance his or her participation in community life? 6. How can we help the person to make a contribution to others? The team can ask, "Is our vision for the person similar to the vision we hold for ourselves and each other? When we think about what the person needs, do we focus on "fixing" deficits or do we think about supporting the person in achieving a real life?" 4. Develop a support plan for the person's supporters Just as it is simplistic to treat a person's behavior without understanding something about the life the person lives, it is simplistic to develop a support plan without considering the needs of the person's supporters. Many of our school and human service delivery systems are based on the idea that a few people with greater knowledge and power should bestow care and skills to a larger number of people with lesser knowledge and power. "Success" is based on compliance or obedience. A person who engages in difficult behaviors presents a real threat to a care-giver or teacher whose competence is being judged by this "compliance/ obedience" yardstick. The caregiver often expends great energy trying to suppress the person's behavior in order to maintain "competence" (in many of our workplaces it is acceptable to share knowledge but not to share power). Punishment or the fear of punishment (coercion) may be the primary means of "motivating" staff. Many approach each day with a mixture of fear and dread. If they make a mistake, they could be "written up," demoted or fired. If they try something new, it may violate a policy or procedure. The unspoken message is "do as you are told" or suffer the consequences. Many of our human services environments are "toxic" with fear. It is in this context that human services workers are "told" to be supportive. Workers are trained in positive approaches when the underlying organizational message is "maintain obedience." Under the deadening weight of these systems, even the kindest and most respectful of caregivers may begin to exhibit their own difficult behaviors. They become excessively controlling and resistant to change. They begin to believe that individuals are worthy of their labels and "beyond hope." They may even resort to forms of punishment procedures that the average citizen would find repulsive and unacceptable. Take time with your colleagues to develop support plans for each other. For example, what can you do to increase each other's level of safety and comfort when someone is behaving dangerously? What can you do to have more fun at work? How can you have more control over your schedule and input into decisions? How can managers better support you? A fundamental question is, "If you stopped responding to the person's difficult behavior the way you do now, who would you be?" 5. Don't assume anything. It is easy to make the mistake of underestimating a person's potential because of her labels or because she has failed to acquire certain skills. This is a tragic mistake. I have worked in the field for 15 years and am less confident in my ability to predict how much a person understands with every passing day. Recent developments make clear the folly of making predictions about a person's potential on the basis of diagnostic labels or past performance. Hundreds of thousands of people deemed "unfit" for society have left our institutions and now live in community. One hundred and twenty thousand people who were assessed "unemployable" because of the severity of their disability now work and pay taxes thanks to supported employment services. The very definition of mental retardation itself has changed in recent years. The American Association for Mental Retardation (AAMR) has recently overhauled the definition. Gone are pessimistic predictions that saw little hope for the "severely retarded" and "profoundly retarded." The new definition eliminates such terms altogether and emphasizes the importance of our supports. In short, an individual's potential depends largely upon the adequacy of his/ her supports rather than some inherent flaw or "defect." Always remember that people are people first. Labels tell us nothing (in any real sense) about how we can be supportive. We David Pitonyak 4
5 need not forget the person's problem behaviors, but we must understand that people have gifts and capacities that eclipse our labels (or, as Herb Lovett has said, our "clinical accusations.") Always remember to speak directly to the person and explain things as clearly as you can, even if the person's labels suggest that he cannot understand (at the very least the person will understand the tone of your voice). Never speak about the person as if he were not in the room. 6. Relationships make all the difference. Loneliness is the most significant disability of our time. Many people with disabilities, young and old, live lives of extraordinary isolation. Some depend entirely upon their families for support. A brother or sister or mom or dad are the only source of company. Friends are often absent altogether. All too often, the only relationships people have are with paid staff. Although staff can offer a great deal, they change jobs frequently or take on new responsibilities. The resulting instability can be devastating to someone who is fundamentally alone. Remember that there are many people in the community who will benefit from knowing the person. Chances are the person has already made someone's life fuller. Be confident that she or he will make someone's life richer again and again. Learn more about personal futures planning and other person-centered appro aches to planning. 7. Help the person to develop a positive identity. John Bradshaw writes, " Our identity is the difference about us that makes a difference." Many people with disabilities develop identities as "problem people." They are segregated into "special" programs where they are treated as people who have little to offer. Soon their "treatment" becomes a kind of cage to protect them from themselves and others. The real danger is that if enough people begin to think of the person as a "problem," she will begin to believe it too. We all need to be needed. Help the person to find a way to make a contribution. Start when the person is young if you can. Giving is a lifelong endeavor. Things as simple as helping with household chores or helping out at church can teach the person that she can make a contribution. Pour over the newspaper and find the "Volunteers Needed" section. Talk to the person about joining an organization with you or with a friend (e.g., Habitat for Humanity, a local food shelter, an environmental group). Help the person to learn how to support friends (e.g., an invitation to a sleep over, birthday cards, learning to ask "How are you doing?" or "What's new?"). Remember that it is important to overcome the belief that the person has nothing to share. It takes time and determination to help the person and others to see strength and the capacity to give when deficits were all that anyone ever saw before. 8. Instead of ultimatums, give choices. Choice is a powerful alternative to punishment. If the person's behavior challenges you, help him to find more desirable ways to express the needs underlying the behaviors. Instead of ultimatums, give choices (e.g., "Bill, I know you're upset. What would help? Would you like to go for a walk? or take a ride? You need a chance to calm down." Allow the person to make decisions throughout the day. If he has trouble making choices, find a way to help. Make sure there are at least three desirable outcomes to choose from. As Norman Kunc has said 1 option = tyranny; 2 options = a dilemma; 3 or more options = a real choice. Don't assume that helping the person to have more choices means letting him do whatever he wishes. Limit-setting is an important and fair part of any relationship. The real question is who is setting the limits and why. If limits are imposed upon the person without their input, and if the limits are part and parcel of a life in which the person is powerless, even your best advice may even be interpret ed as one David Pitonyak 5
6 more statement of "do it my way or else." You can expect a general disregard for your advice if the person on the receiving end of the advice is "out of power." Make a sustained commitment to the person and to "fairness" in the relationship. If the person has been on the outside of power for too long, you may need to bend more often than not for awhile. The goal is to teach the person that giving is a two-way street. 9. Help the person to have more fun. Fun is a powerful antidote to problem behaviors. People with significant disabilities often live in ghettos of reward. Indeed, it is often this poverty of reward, not a lack of skills, that keeps people separate from other community members. Many must endure reward schedules for good behavior. The very few things that they enjoy are used contingently to reinforce compliance (talk about spoiling a good thing!). Count the number of things the person enjoys, the number of places she likes to go. Compare this to the number of things other people enjoy, the number of places other people go. Ask yourself, "Is the person having fun? Is she experiencing enough joy? Is this an interesting life with things to look forward to?" Help the person to add to her list of interesting (and really fun) things to do. Spend time in regular community places where people hang out. If you feel compelled to take data on something, take data on the amount of fun you find. Make fun a goal. 10. Establish a good working relationship with the person's primary health care physician. Mark Durand has said, "People tend to get immature when they don't feel well." How often have you experienced a general decline in your mood or your ability to empathize with the needs of others when you don't feel well? When we are sick, we are not ourselves. Many people who exhibit difficult behaviors do so because they don't feel well. The sudden appearance of behavior problems may be a signal that the person does not feel well. Illnesses as common as a cold or ear ache can result in beh aviors as inconsequential as grumpiness or as serious as head banging. It is important to establish a working relationship with a good primary health care physician. Although this is easier said than done, the person will, especially if he has difficulty communicating, need a doctor who can help him to stay healthy and well. Remember that physicians, like many other people who grew up in our "separate" society do not always understand (and may even fear) a person with substantial disabilities. Don't be afraid of telling the person's doctor that you don't understand a recommendation or finding. It is important to get a clear and straightforward answer to all of your questions. Remember too that it is important to go beyond a concept of health as the absence of a disease or illness. "Feeling well" and "being healthy" involves everything from a balanced diet to a good night's sleep. Help the person to achieve a state of "wellness."

I loved this for a little while. I really did. I enjoyed riding around firing cannonballs at enemy ships. But it really did take too long. Also the wind thing was an issue. Can't Link just install a motor or something? Anywho, it was fun for a while, but got pretty repetitive. Zelda, please stick to Epona, she misses you.
I think I broke my hand playing this game. The skateboarding was just way too fun and addictive. I played for hours, doing tricks and catching air, not knowing the carpal tunnel forming in my wrist. Why is it that I can't play DS for too long? Why do I always start cramping up after a while? I don't even play that long. Skatboarding would've been higher on the list if it weren't for my crappy hands...
As a Zora of course. No fun in slowly wading around as a small boy. But shooting around leaping from the water in incredible time as a cool aquatic creature is good enough for this list. I, for one, loved this game when I got the Zora mask. I could finally be one of these guys! Don't deny it, you thought they were cool looking in Ocarina of Time. Too bad all they give is the Zora Armour in Twilight Princess. Not that it's bad, just that I liked to leap from the water like a dolphin...erm, next up on the list!
Tis the arwing. The greatest jet that happens to be piloted by taking animals ever. Assault was my first Star Fox game and the arwing sucked me in. Flying around and shooting animals in large machinery! How'd they know what I wanted! I would've put the DS game on the list but...that DS pen gives me a cramp in my hand after playing for an hour! Assault does no such thing to my hand so it's on the list.
The best part of this game was swinging. It was so addicting I could play for hours just swinging around New York, performing tricks. It was especially satisfying jumping from the tallest building, then at the last moment, shoot a web and swing away to safety. It was a huge improvement over the last game. You can see where the web connects with the building, instead of swinging on some invisible ceiling.
You know her. Link's trusty horse who seems to never die. Voiced by 50 Cent, shes a memorable part of the Zelda games. Twilight Princess takes horseback riding to the next level though. I cannot get enough of riding around firing arrows at giant birds and trampling Moblins. Also, the jousting with the huge monster riding the...bull thing was the best memory I have in a Zelda game. I just wish you could control her someway while firing arrows so she wouldn't run into that wall!
Mario says hi. The kart may be tiny but it packs a punch in Mario Kart games. Zooming down the road on rainbow tracks throwing turtle shels at apes in ties is a treat only found in Mario Kart. This series of racing games is my number 1 on my favourite list for racing, but not number 1 on this one. Although, it's still amazingly fun to play kart games, just not more fun than the next few things on this list.
I like explosions. You probably like explosions. The tank provides us with explosions. We're happy about that. Yep, the tank is number 3. It's not just Battalion Wars that offers us this grand vehicle of death, tons of games include it. I just decided to be different and have a game no one's played on the list. I also get a big smile blowing apart other war vehicles with this massive machine. It would have been higher on the list if not for the speed. The tank is just way too slow. I'm also an impatient guy. So if you're quite patient and think the tank should be 1 on this list, stop reading now.
Ahh, the motorcycle. The fastest one on the list. Who doesn't have fun riding around in this bad boy in games? Riding around shooting at cops and such is quite enjoyable in Grand Theft Auto. How can you not smile as your chased by police and slow down slightly to allow them to catch up...only to start up again and fly down the road away from them? Racing with these bad boys is fun as well. Pulling tricks off as you fly through the air off a ramp makes me feel totally badass. Not to mention, fighting off the Covenant is satisfying with the Ghost, an alien version of the motorcycle.
Yes, the car. The most popular vehicals ever. What'd you expect to win, the bike? No it's the car. I particularly chose the car from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas because of the huge amount of fun I have driving around. Now, racing games are also a big part of this. Would you rather ride a scooter around the track? No didn't think so. The car is obviously one of the fastest vehicles on the list so it's hard not to have fun riding around in these. But like I said, I mainly picked it for Grand Theft Auto. Driving around running over people, drive- byes, escaping police, and inputting cheats to make it fly are just one of the many things you can do with a car in the game. Not to mention most of them look totally awesome. Personally, I like "pimping" my ride to impress the lady nerds.
That's my list. But this is all just what I found fun. You probably disagree with most of the list but go ahead, this is just my perspective. I hope you enjoyed it and learned a life lesson somwhere. In conclusion, never smoke. You see those lungs on the package, they're all black. Don't do it.

Men's Ministry
Through the Men's Ministry at DCC, we want to invite men into authentic community so that they can better encounter Christ and experience His dynamic presence and power in their lives. Because we are "jars of clay," we make no pretenses... guys do not have to get their lives cleaned up before they are welcome. All of us are in process. But because God is at work in us through his grace, we can expect to experience his transforming power in our lives, and through us, see that power extended to the lives of others.
The Men's Ministry exists to come alongside men to help them follow Jesus in ways that are unique to men through our vocations (such as loving and glorifying God through our work), roles (such as husbands and fathers), and Kingdom callings (how God has made them and wants to use them to represent His Kingdom in the church, local community, and world).
Contact Ed Galisewski for more information or to get involved.
We have a number of activities, events, and small groups that are designed for men, but it's important for us to understand that these events are not ends in themselves; they are designed to help men develop relationships where they can share their lives with one another and to further the specific purpose of helping men follow Jesus through our vocations, roles, and Kingdom callings.
- Men's Breakfasts—a key time for getting to know other men and develop relationships, great food, and a speaker that addresses a topic relevant to men.
- Men's Retreat—a great opportunity to connect on a deeper level and receive solid teaching with pointed application for men who desire to follow Jesus.
- Various Activities—Guy's Nights Out, BBQs, basketball, and other fun activities provide a forum for guys to get to know one another better and invite friends from outside the church.
