Take the advice all of us give you to heart. We all do this in our SPARE TIME!!! There are a select few on here that respond to just about every post, and they have a TON of experience behind them. I have nothing but love for everyone that has helped me through my "situation" and I owe alot to them. If you are posting to hear what you want, wrong idea. You will hear the BEST 3rd party opinions on what you should do in your situation, but you MUST keep an open mind to what we tell you, we are trying to help you, but the fact is.......only YOU can help you! I know you THINK you know everyhting, but you dont newbies.........or else why would you be here? Learn and grow with us people, I love you all!:p

Hi,
I don't know everything either; use to, when I was 18.
Take a little from everything you read, put it all together, sort out what you don't like, what you do like, weigh all options, then make a decision.
There are 3 steps to every problem:
1. What is the problem?
2. What are ways to solve it.
3. Either solve it, or forget it and move on to the next problem.
Good post, Jeff.
Best wishes.

You mean we don't get paid, I was wondering where that check was.

And as said, most times on many things it is our opinoin, things could work our different. I do alot of my answers from personal experiences, and I give an answer that worked on the majority, but there is of course those that things worked out different.

But the answers are normally as good as the base information,

And of course I do not know everything, ( I still can't rap for one)

And of course many times you are not going to hear that I think something is ok, if it was ok, you would not normally be asking for advice.

Awe, Jeffy - that was so sweet! I'm glad we were able to help you and that you are staying on to help others thru their hard times.

You've come a long way and I'm proud of you!

Love, Chery See you all when I get back out of the hospital in about four weeks.

One thing I would definitely say is don't rush into the first answer you read. I don't know about the rest of Family and People, but in Pets and Animals, there are frequently very poor and even dangerous answers. I often have to ask the moderators to delete the worst of them. There are bad answers in Home and Garden and Technology and the Web. Give others familiar with the area to respond. Just because somebody has owned a dog or a house for a long time, doesn't mean they are qualified to advise others. Sadly, a few continually scatter bad posts in many forums.

Hi,
I do agree, somewhat, with the answer before this one. One has to be careful with options when getting answers to anything. That is part of the decision making process; that being, what do I do with the information I have been given.
This information comes from Forums, neighbors, friends, lawyers, doctors, or anyone else who gives an opinion; either online or face-to-face. That's why this Forum is so great. There are usually many different answers from which the Asker can use to make a decision.
There are as many opinions on animals in Pets & Animals as there are questions; and in many, many other categories as well. I personally have never seen a "dangerous" answer in that category. It's one opinion weighed against another; from many different experts, both online, in person, and in face-to-face communications with Professionals, and by Professional, a Vet or a Professional Trainer.
The category of Family & People, and Relationships has good answers, as well as about babies.
How do you raise children? Check out how many books have been written on the subject over the past years.
How do you raise puppies? Again, check out the number of books, videos, suggestions, opinions; there are too many to count!
This is a great Forum, with many different experiences and great help.
