First time mom, Where do I begin in sleep training my one year old?

Sleep training? While I have heard the term, it is just a metaphor for "ignore your child and let her cry until she falls asleep out of sheer exhaustion". She will sleep when she is tired. If you want to "train" something get a puppy.

Should there be a Men's Studies curriculum in High School and College/University?

If men had the time, they might protest outside the registrar that the "women's studies" class is sexist since there is no equivalent "men's studies" class. But men are often to busy studying, working, and chasing tail to have time for a protest.

Will the U.K. strike on Thursday effect the ferry ports?

Which UK strike? The term "UK strike" implies a General Strike in which unionized workers in all industries withdraw their labour. This hasn't happened since 1926

Can you tell me what a Soul is in the Bible?

Man is a "tripart" being. These "parts" are physical, soul, and spirit. Our bodies give consciousness of the world. Our soul is who we really are. The concept of a soul (dying) is an interesting one because our soul will never cease to exist, but, unless we are saved from our sins our soul will be eternally seperated from God. Our spirit is that part of our being that gives us God consciousness. Our spirit is how God speaks to us and we communicate with Him.

Im moving to Switzerland- dog dilemma!?

What do you think of my story?

Its good but you should try sticking on one topic.....sorry if my answer doesn't seem right, but I really liked it though and I wanted to help you a little bit on the story.

My mom is very obsessed with cleaning? normal, or abnormal?

My mom cleans A LOT. She starts in the morning before she goes to work. Then as soon as she gets home from work she cleans until we have dinner. Then she cleans more after that. And repeats the same thing every day. Weekends are really bad. She will wake up early (around 6am) and clean all day until about 5. Then she'll take a short break and clean until 10:00 at night. If we have something to do or somewhere to go, she actually gets frustrated and in a really bad mood because she didn't get to finish her cleaning. Even though there is nothing else to clean, she will find something and clean it anyway. Then she'll move outside and clean around the house or work on weeding the garden etc. My brother and my dad and I do our basic chores such as dishes, vacuuming, laundry, etc. But my mom goes way overboard. We never even see her and when we do she is upset that we interrupted her cleaning. And she'll come into my room and nag on me for not cleaning something that doesn't even need to be cleaned. The other day she yelled at me for a half hour about having dust on my TV, and my TV had practically no dust on it at all. It is really annoying that the only thing she really does is clean. Is this normal or not?
