Leslie Hiller's world is growing smaller. It used to be large enough to include her worrisome but loving mother, her doting father, her close friend Cavette, and all the other people and places that made up her upper-class, A+ life. But now it has shrunk to the size of a dinner plate full of food--which she scrapes out her bedroom window to avoid eating. Leslie, a perfectionist who loves to be in control, finds she can't control the fear that she will somehow fail to be the perfect daughter, perfect student, and perfect friend. So she decides to master the one thing over which she is certain she has complete domain: food. Even when it becomes apparent to everyone that her severe dieting has become a life-threatening habit, Leslie still can't stop: "I want to be happy. And being happy means being thin."

Author Deborah Hautzig, who recounts her own painful battle with anorexia in a very personal and heartfelt afterword, gives Leslie a frighteningly realistic voice that will ring true to teens everywhere. First published in 1981, Second Star to the Right has risen again to give a new generation of young adults valuable insight into the addictive world of anorexia, and hope for getting out from under the cruel thumb of the disease. (Ages 12 to 15) --Jennifer Hubert

Flexibility and tolerance are learned skills, as any parent knows if they've seen an irascible 2-year-old grow into a pleasant, thoughtful, and considerate older child. Unfortunately, for reasons that are poorly understood, a few children don't "get" this part of socialization. Years after toddler tantrums should have become an unpleasant memory, a few unlucky parents find themselves battling with sudden, inexplicable, disturbingly violent rages--along with crushing guilt about what they "did wrong." Medical experts haven't helped much: the flurry of acronyms and labels (Tourette's, ADHD, ADD, etc.) seems to proffer new discoveries about the causes of such explosions, when in fact the only new development is alternative vocabulary to describe the effects. Ross Greene, a pediatric psychologist who also teaches at Harvard Medical School, makes a bold and humane attempt in this book to cut through the blather and speak directly to the (usually desperate) parents of explosive children. His text is long and serious, and has the advantage of covering an enormous amount of ground with nuance, detail, and sympathy, but also perhaps the disadvantage that only those parents who are not chronically tired and time-deprived are likely to get through the entire book. Quoted dialogue from actual sessions with parents and children is interspersed with analysis that is always oriented toward understanding the origins of "meltdowns" and developing workable strategies for avoidance. Although pharmacological treatment is not the book's focus, there is a chapter on drug therapies. --Richard Farr

His name was Kevin but his keepers called him Zoo Boy.  He didn't talk. He hid under tables and surrounded himself with a cage of chairs. He hadn't been out of the building in the four years since he'd come in. He was afraid of water and wouldn't take a shower.  He was afraid to be naked, to change his clothes.  He was nearly 16.

Desperate to see change in the boy, the staff of Kevin's adolescent treatment center hired Hayden. As Hayden read to him and encouraged him to read, crawling down into his cage of chairs with him, Kevin talked. Then he started to draw and paint and showed himself to have a quick wit and a rolling, seething, murderous hatred for his stepfather.

Hi! I am married since past three years. We have eight month old baby also. My in-laws especially my mother in law is creating hell lot of problems in our life from day one I got married. She has the mentality that I snatched her son from her. My husband and my Mother in law always fight on everything because of change of opinion. I never bad mouthed her. Being precise - We had a great fight in sept 2007(I went alone to India just for visiting her but she didn't wanted me to visit her house because she had guests in her house....when I reported the same thing to my husband , she fought with me on telephone that I am spoiling her image in front of her son.) She said many things to my mother also...I could not tolerate this that she is involving my mother in this (because ours was love marriage) so I said shut up to her and cut the phone. Then after a year My husband insisted me to say sorry to her. Just for him I became ready to do that...When we reached her house...she stopped me to enter her house and started fighting with my husband...I did what i promised to my husband..I touched her feet and said sorry to her...Things did not end here....she continued her annoyed behaviour with me till time I was there...(saying indirect things about my mom(who is divorcee)....I was really upset with her and went back to my mom's house without saying bye to her... After a year my in-laws came to my house when i was pregnant (5 months)....They came here because she wanted my husband to buy gold for her daughter's marriage. My husband took another loan for her just to make her happy..(He took one loan earlier when they had given function of our marriage)....After buying all the gold , on the very next day she fought with my husband that she wanted to buy more gold. My husband refused that he cannot afford to spend more (because it was beyond his capability)....So she fought with him and on next day she started fighting with me..on small small things(comanding me to do the things her way)....Still I did not uttered a single word. I kept quite throughout her stay. Most amazingly my father in law who was quite when whole fight happened......started a conversation with me and my husband that he want to know - why I don't love them? I told him that I will reply but only after giving birth to my Baby....I requested him to hold the discussing for 4 months...( I didn';t wanted my BP to go up since it could have affected my baby).....He replied that so many pregnant women takes tensions during pregnancy so I am giving unnecessary excuses....Then My mother in law came and started abusing my Me and my mom...that she has not tought me decency and all.....My patience limit was over and I broke the glass ouf of anger and went outside the house immediately to control my anger.... Now the scene is - My father in law is playing a great role in emotionally black mailing my husband and insisting him to get married for the second time without divorcing me. Though I know my husband will not do that...But still he does get disturbed to hear all that and that is very clear on his face....He is going to India to see them again....(earlier also he went to India but my mother in law insulted him in front of all her family member and took his signatures on paper- that he will not get anything from her property).....I don't want to stop my husband from going to his parents house but I am really disturbed as to what will happen now?

I am a 25 yr old female. most of my life i have been on my own due to a disturbed background (teenage life) and it took my more than 10 years to stabalize my mind and come to terms of accepting myself and liking myself. However, my recent roommate who is selfish, intollerant and a immoral has totally shaken me to my very core. We had alot of dis agreements over issues and i was always very civilized and polite towards him in approaching regarding issues. However, he has been very bullying towards me and abused me verbally and emotionally alot always insulting my point of views and lifestyle along with his GF and other friends that would come over. I have moved out of there but we had a big fight the other day ( i could hardly stand up to him but i tried my best) and he was very aggressive towards me. He said alot of things about my personal life which i believe he had no right to. I feel like i dont know myself anymore and i have fallen on the ground again. Being the youngest in the family, I have had to over come alot of bullies all my life including my sisters husband who was very abusive towards me right before i decided to move out. The problem is all these people expect me to be on their feet and i always try and stick up for myself but always fall miserably. And this time i dont know if the damage is reversible. My thoughts about the nuicense of my life have been getting stronger and i guess i come on here hoping that someone will tell me what they think of me ? My recent roommate told me that i like to play victim but the truth is i have always been a very emotional girl and due to lack of my strengeht to an extent i was indeed the vitcim. but after he told me that he made me feel like i was pretending and it feels horrible to know that i dont even have the right to feel sad or sorry for myself when the world gets tough. i hope none of you will give me the advise to toughen up coz i am not looking to hear that given my circumstances - i seek understanding more than anything and no one seems to care. what should i do ? this guy i was living with is the most immoral guy and he would come after me to cover up for the embarrassmet he was feeling regarding his wrong doings. what can i do to get rid of the mental trauma i feel right now ? He had been bullying me and even tried to shove me by coming on to me and trying to scare me. the police wasn't much of help. what should i do ? (more...)

About a year ago I was 5150'd - pretty sure this was the term for it- as someone thought I was acting in an emotionally disturbed way so I was taken to a psychiatric hospital. I was extremely impressed with the team who took me in - so impressed that I always remembered this incident and have a good impression of the police. I am curious - are they trained in this area...are they a separate force than the rest of the police dept? What kind of training do they get and what tips do they receive to handle their cases? Sorry that was a lot of questions - if you can answer even one it would be helpful/interesting. (more...)

I am a 55 year old female separated 5 years from 3rd husband and my neighbor is a 40 old male, never married and never in a serious relationship due to a 20 year drug problem he is now in recovery 3 years. Very commited to his sobriety. We became fast friends, during a family crisis, I was involved in with my adult daughters and other family members including my estranged husband. He was very kind and caring. I didn't imagine myself ever really getting romantic again, as this was my 3rd failed marriage.We are now very passionate. Spend a lot of time together everyday. I love his youthful ways. He is very sexy, and attentive. But he always wants to go home almost immediately after lovemaking in the evening, Always right back early in the morning. I know there is no other women and he is very public about our relationship and refers to me as his fiance.We both snore and probably sleep better alone. It just seems emotionally distance, but practical. As I am so sexually attracted, I probably wouldn't let us get any rest. He does seem to have good judgement in most things. In conversation it sounds like this could carry on into the marriage. Is it a big thing? Or am I being to much of a traditionalist and possesive? He is aware it disturbs me. Our relationship is only 45 days old. He likes his TV better and has it set to his favorite stations. I can come over, but usually want to go home in the middle of the night. He has roomates.I have also lent him 6,500.00 dollars. He has been paying as promised. I do have more resources and am happy to share. But have been used before, hence estranged husband. He bought a motorcycles which I we both enjoy. I am attractive too.Certainly not desparate. I think I am probably insecure. Could use some feed back though. thanks (more...)

The persons setting up this warning system against global warming, suffer from a specific psychiatric disorder, born out of fear of change, fear of being unable to control things in their environment and fear of insecurity from the environment. These are specific symptoms of paranoia. You can oppose global warming because you fear something will happen to you if the weather gets too warm, obviously a symptom of paranoia where the ones pushing the global warning fear -panic contend that a 2 degrees warming would disrupt mankind?s life, including the life of those who are susceptible to episodic fears. Thus these emotionally unbalanced join their ranks of the anti global warning interests ( producers, sellers and distributors of heating fuels, for instance), and succumb to the lies of those whose monetary goals urges them to be manipulators or the emotionally and psychiatrically disturbed, to conceal themselves from public opinion as a single commercial group. If you don?t like the weather, you can move elsewhere, use air conditioning or take other measures to adapt to a 2 degree weather change. Unless of course, you also are on that lunatic fringe, worried about vicious beasts such as polar bears and their possible (and good) extinction as if this is no longer a man?s world, but a polar bear?s world, whose violent predatory acts must dominate. Those kind of folks, for sure have been mourning the loss of dinasours, wishing they were still around and using their disappearance as an indication of some global weather change. It appears that the whole global warming paranoia is a joint venture of greedy business interests, who have manipulated the paranoids into their ranks, as they stumble about trying to portray a common cause.

I have been friends with this one guy for 3 years now. (Lets call him ABC) We sometimes talk on the phone, or text. Whenever we text, he always trys to talk dirty, not too disturbing, just the fact that I want him. (Jokingly) Last night I was at a party, I texted him, then he called me. We started to talk. He told me about his problems with this one girl, and that she was talking to him again. I laughed and told him that I'm his life-saver, I prayed for the girl to talk to him, jokingly. I told him that I would always be there for him. That he could always depend on me. That I know him better than the back of my hand. Then he was like: "You should come chill at my house with me." Me: "We could watch a movie or something." Him: "Yeah, then get to the good stuff." (Laughs) Me: "No, because I wouldn't let you make a move, I'm smart." (Laughed) Him: "What would you ever do if we DID do stuff?" Me: "Everything would never be the same." Him: "What do you mean?" Me: "Our friendship will fall apart, and I would be hurting whenever you went out with some other girl." Him: "What if were going out? Would you do it then?" Me: "What if I didn't want to DO IT?" Him: "Then I would just be horny all the time." Me: "I love you as a friend, ABC. I don't want to lose you, friend wise." Him: "Hmm." Me: "Well I'm at a party, I have to go. I'll talk to you later...and...good luck with that girl..." Him: "Oh..uhm, okay.." Me: "Bye, love you." (Hung up) What does this all mean? Does he like me? Does he only want me physically and not emotionally? Just explain as best as you can. Thanks. (more...)

Okay... I have asked a lot of people here about my son and his IEP. I am beginning to HATE IEPs... I need help again. My son has crawled under desks, stood on top of his desk, crawled under the teacher's desk... They say they cannot control him. So they took the door off of a closet and put his desk in there. Isn't there something in the IEP that says "least restrictive environment"? I also found something 226.800 about "The number and types of personnel employed shall be based on students? need rather than administrative convenience.". It really seems to me that they are worried more about their "administrative convenience" than they are about my son. How do I word a letter stating this? Are there any other parts of the IEP that state "rights" to a one - on - one aid, or something that could help? My son does not live with me. He lives with his father. There are some problems with home, but I cannot do anything about that. My son is autistic, high functioning, or Asperger's Syndrome... They have him labeled "emotionally disturbed". I don't know what else to say. I am going to read the IEP guidelines, I printed it out. I have Asperger's Syndrome, and this is a situation that I have not been in before, with people sticking my son in a closet, even if the door is off, and even if he is a pain to deal with. Just to give more information, the teacher would like the one-on-one aid too, she cannot handle my son, AND the other students. She has a classroom aid, but that aid cannot spend all of their time with my son. I think that they are at as much of a loss as I am. CaravanShaker - You amuse me. You have no idea what my life is like or what my son's life is like, yet you cast judgment. Why? To everyone else, and to help any future answerers, I have no control over his diet. Like I said, he does not live with me, but if he did, I would definitely take advice such as that about the diet. I understand that the other students must be able to learn as well, and I am exploring other options such as another school for him. Transportation is an issue though, because of the location of the school. It is in another town. I am thinking of the other kids, when I suggest a one-on-one aid may be of assistance in his classroom. Thank you to everyone, except CaravanShaker who seems to live in a glass house, for your advice. Please keep advising me. I am listening. I now have a copy of the IEP book (Part 226 - Special Education), and "The first 100 days kit". I am paying attention to everyone's posts. Thank you for helping me. I and my husband are thinking hard about alternative options for my son. (His step-son) My ex-husband has left all of this "settling things with the school" up to me, and my son doesn't live with me, but my ex is at a loss, and we are friends. He trusts me to handle this. I am trying to handle it, but I don't know how. So I am taking in everything everyone says, and lending it all weight. (I think that is how you say it.) But again, thank you everyone. (more...)
