With an EatSmart kitchen scale, my problems are solved!
Use it to measure ingredients

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a radical idea, but a good one.
My daughter&#8217;s teacher, the school Christian club adviser, told the kids that her approach to dating is that she hopes to marry her first boyfriend.
What did she say??
Let me clarify. She doesn&#8217;t mean she&#8217;s going to blindly marry the first guy she happens to go out with.

If we look at pop culture, movies, celebrity lifestyles, there isn&#8217;t much left of modesty. Anything goes.
Do we still teach &#8220;decent behavior&#8221;, especially between the opposite sexes, to our children? I was talking to a friend today about how to teach modesty to our girls, and what the [...]]]></description>

Our assessment of our children is most often correct, but we are perceived to be biased in our opinions, and therefore discounted.
