If you abhor such articles (like 10 ways to de-clutter your bathroom), then keep on reading. I’m like you. Normal. 1. Bribe yourself. A so-called parenting expert that I read last week claimed that bribing your kid to get him to do something was an example of irresponsible and ineffective parenting. I suspect that the same man sits in his quiet and tidy little office cranking out advice like that while either his wife or nanny is home changing diapers and doling out time-outs. Let’s face it. Bribing is one of the most effective tools to get anyone–your kid, your stubborn mother, your golden retriever, or yourself–to do somethin...

But on a train, ushering in the dawn is a badge of honor. Most of us in the lounge car at 5:00 in the morning could not sleep in coach or even in the roomette. Our compensation was the dramatic landscape that inspired novelist Willa Cather accented by a deepening pink and coral sky. As we awaited the opening of the dining car – and that first cup of coffee – the night conductor walked back and forth, preparing to detrain in Dodge City. To sleep, he said. “Tonight I have to do this all over again.” Soon the tsunami of teenaged boy scouts began assembling for breakfast along with their eager leaders. These men not only agree to supervise thousands of teenagers f...

Magi is autistic and, after graduating from a Daisy troop, she wanted to continue with Brownies. A local Brownie troop with 22 girls was too overwhelming so her parents, Michele and Kevin Klages, decided to try the troop for special needs children. Magi’s first meeting at the group was difficult, understandably, as she was faced with a completely new routin...

Over a year ago, the parents of 14-year-old Casey Reilly, who has Asperger’s, filed a lawsuit against Pacific Palisades Boy Scout Troop 223. As reported in the May 22nd Palisadian Post: The parents, Palisades residents Jane Dubovy and Mike Reilly, argue that Boy Scout Troop 223 violated the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) when the Scout leaders excluded their son, Casey Reilly, from a week-long scouting trip, which prevented him from advancing in rank. In October 2006, Federal District Court Judge S. James Otero dismissed the case, ruling that the Boy Scouts is a private club that does not hav...
