Any parent used Early Intervention or therapy program for your child’s feeding issue?

Editor — Wed, 26 May 2010 06:15:57 +0000

I have a 16 month old boy who starts therapy for eating next week. He can only eat stage 3 baby food and food mashed into that consistency, along with Gerber puffs and small pieces of american cheese. Basically nothing he has to manipulate in his mouth much at all. Anything else, he usually gags and throws up. What should I expect during therapy and if you have had similar feeding issues with your child, did therapy through this kind of program help them overcome it?

I’m really worried about my dad. Ever since my mom left us, he has done nothing but drink alcoholic beverages! I hate seeing him that way. I want him to go back to the way he once was. I have heard of addiction intervention and I think it would be worth a try. I really want my dad to get treated for his addiction.

Is the housing bailout an example of congress’s ‘addiction to intervention’? What should they do instead?

Editor — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 11:45:56 +0000

http://www.campaignforliberty.com/blog/?p=288

“One problem with politicians is that when problems they create come to a head, they typically feel this irresistible urge to DO something, rather than to UN-do something, or to simply back off to avoid exacerbating the situation. Too often, that which they end up doing has very little connection to the cause of the crisis, but plays well in the press and superficially makes everyone feel better. Bills that are rushed through Congress under duress are never studied enough, providing too tempting an opportunity to quietly slip in unrelated provisions that erode freedoms in ways that would never pass as a stand-alone bill. We famously saw this with the PATRIOT Act, but Washington learned nothing from that.

The current housing crisis and the corresponding big government fix are another prime example. First of all, the so-called solution will actually make the problem worse. The problem stems from easy credit and a rush to flood the housing and mortgage markets with money. Relaxed or non-existent lending standards led many into mortgages and houses they could not afford. As more foreclosures hit, the lending institutions will continue collapsing like dominoes under the weight of all the bad paper they underwrote. Some are reacting and reintroducing lending standards. Thus the number of buyers in the market for homes is beginning to shrink back to its natural size, and hyper-inflated prices are falling back down to earth. In these ways, the market is trying to correct itself in the wake of the mistakes government intervention encouraged them to make through easy credit.

Some mistakenly identify the falling home prices as the disease instead of merely a symptom – which they plan to fix with more easy credit and more liquidity to push more unqualified buyers back into the market for homes they still cannot afford. This is akin to the drug addict identifying withdrawal symptoms as his problem and searching for another fix as his solution. The cycle continues and the problems compound themselves. The addiction deepens.

Addicts are told the first step to recovery is to admit their problem. To cure this addiction to intervention we have to honestly admit the problem and once and for all, kick the habit. That will involve some pain, without a doubt. There is no easy, painless solution to the mess the disastrous economic interventions of the past have wrought. The question is – do we allow some lending institutions to collapse, or do we allow the dollar to collapse?

How can drug intervention help an addict?

What is the point of that Intervention TV show?

Editor — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 15:19:59 +0000

I watched the TV show Intervention for the first time last night, and I can’t help but wonder why it’s even a show in the first place! Last night, Christi was the “star” of the show. She was heavily into meth and alcohol. It was unbelievable seeing somebody like that. She lost her car and her job due to her abuse. She worked as a stripper and lived in a horrible, nasty apartment. Very serious addiction. The family was weak with rules, and all of them disgusted me in the way they acted. Anyway, Christi went to rehab only to leave after 30 days. She then went to jail and served 90 days. What happened after jail you ask? The text lines at the end of the show said she went back to doing meth and alcohol 6 weeks afterwards! It didn’t say anything about continued help or support from her family! So what the heck was the point of the show!?! Nobody improved and the show didn’t prove anything positive! What an excuse just for entertainment.

Two questions about A&E’s Intervention?

Editor — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 23:21:46 +0000

First, do you think that Gail Vaz-Oxlade would make a good interventionist if someone would recommend her to the show? In case you don’t know who she is, she is the host of a syndicated show called “Til Debt Do Us Part” (which can be seen on the Slice Channel, and also my local Global station in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada before the Canadian episode of Young and the Restless.) She does a really good job of getting couples in financial and relationship crisis out of their troubles by making them perform tasks that she decides. If they complete all her tasks, they get up to $5000 to help pay off their debt. I think that if someone – probably a “success story” from her show – were to recommend her to the A&E show “Intervention,” she would be a great help for anyone who is coping with an addiction to gambling or shopping.

Second question, in all these addictions to alcohol and drugs, do you think there should be a “documentary” episode where the subject is addicted to sex? I don’t think I’ve seen an episode like it

She Needs An Intervention?

Editor — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 16:15:05 +0000

I have a friend that is addicted to perscription pills. She has recently found a connection that allows her to obtain methadone. Along with taking the pills she also drinks heavly and uses marijuanna. Its so hard to watch her destroy her self.
I have tried to help her, but she has pushed me away. I told her a week ago that i love and care for her very much, and that i donot want to see her hurt herself anylonger. She has since stopped talking to me or anyone who tries to help her. She only allows people around her that contribute to her addiction.
how can i helper if she doesnt want the help??????? Im trying to be there for her but, she no longer wants me around.
