Bit of a background of me. I have to be honest and tell you I am not into most of this stuff people talk about with dream interpretation. I have my beliefs. I am spiritual, I own some Tarot cards I rarely handle. But I DO believe in dreams. And I had one that for the first time has really changed me.

I dreamt I was back home in America. I was doing some sort of camping I think. I was out in the bush anyways. I had a car and I heard a noise inside. I grabbed a stick and started poking under the seats and a raccoon came out and sat on the head rest of the drivers seat. I wasn’t scared at all. I laughed at it, it was cute and wasn’t scared of me either. I tried to point him out to everyone else in my dream but no one seemed to hear me. He ran off into the woods and there he/she was.

I could see a White Wolf peering from the woods straight at me. I was frightened but excited. I approached him/her. Suddenly I wasn’t terrified at all. She/he was my friend. Her/His name was something like "Chai chi" but I can’t exactly recalled, I didn’t name her but she/he didn’t speak at all in my dream. It was as if I already knew her/his name. She/he was a very big, huge beautiful white wolf. We ran together, I hugged her a lot. She was my friend. I tried to get my family in the woods to take a photo of us but they wouldn’t. This infuriated me so I ran off with the wolf. We did something mischievous at a gas station but I can’t remember what it was.

I was very protective of her and she was of me. She saved my life as many times in my dream as I did her. We had a lot of adventures. In the end my partner showed up in my dream and told me we had to go. I clinged to her, not wanting to. I am afraid that that’s when I might have woke up.

When I woke up, I felt like I was missing a friend. I can’t stop thinking about her/him. I miss them and want to see him/her again.

Is any of this normal?

I have had many dreams of animals but never ones where I really get to interact with them. I could feel her fur, her emotions. Everything. I feel empty now. I have never really believed in spirit guides or anything. Could this dream mean anything, or am I just being silly.

I have given as many details as I think I remember. It was all so real and lucid. Please help me.

I dreamed last night that I was at some random restaurant with two of my friends eating and then for no reason I went on a rampage and killed everyone in the restaurant, including the workers and my friends. I felt the adrenaline in my dream. There wasn’t any punishment or anything for what I did, I just remember that my name was in the newspaper and everyone knew who I was and what I did. I felt extremely depressed and anxious. It switched over to a classroom and school where everybody was smirking, laughing, saying extremely bad things about me. I felt like complete crap, the lowest I can recall feeling. Then for some reason I went back to the restaurant, which I was banned from (yeah I don’t get the logic of this dream either) and everybody was looking at me and talking to their friends secretly about me and smirking again. I felt like I was some crazy beast. then somebody I think from the media appeared out of nowhere taking a billion pictures of me and laughing and insulting me. I raged again, even more than before, slapped the camera out of his hand and killed everyone again. I don’t recall me physically killing the people this time around but my dream told me I killed 4 more people. Once again, no punishment. I felt extremely alone and devastated. I then switched to being inside a grocery store where I saw people I know in real life who respect me and actually care about me smirking at me, walking away from me, laughing, talking about me, ect. I knew I had lost all my friends and would never have any again. People I know were saying things like "You didn’t fucking learn you idiot." I couldn’t have a future either since everyone in the world knew about me. I became extremely depressed and sad inside again, crazy depressed. The only thing comparable to what I felt in my dream is if brought Hitler or Stalin back to life and set them in the middle of a crowded place. Then I was in the backseat of my parents’ car and they were driving. They seemed to be the only ones that cared about me giving me good talk and confidence while I was sulking in the back seat, but it didn’t feel real like they really cared. It turned out we were driving to the damn restaurant again. My parents wanted to eat there. I got out and told them I didn’t want to go in, but they said something like "They want you to come in, they like you…" (it seemed sarcastic) so I decided to go in. My dream ended with me at a table there eating something like french fries. I woke up this morning extremely depressed, I felt like it was real and that I have to deal another day like that. I had to give myself self-talk for a while to cheer myself up and get out of this state. Even on the way to school this morning I felt like it was still real and felt like I was going to be hated for what I did in my dream. Why did I have such a creepy, dark, depressing, real feeling dream? Thanks and God bless.

My son is 4 years old and small for his age (about 34 lbs), and he’s always been in a car seat with a five point harness. We have a Britax Marathon and Sunshine Kids Radian. Both seats are solid and heavy with the latch system to attach them to my car. He recently has been complaining that the strap between his legs in the Britax hurts his "wee wee". I’ve tried loosening the straps a bit, but he still complains. I know he’s at the age where the booster seat is an option, but I’m hesitant to allow him to ride in one for safety reasons. I’m afraid the seatbelt won’t sit properly against his waist, cut into his neck, and allow his head to slump when he falls asleep (which he does often on car rides). Are there any seats that have a more suitable five point harness that will fit an older child, or any very safe booster seats that you can recommend? I was hoping they still make booster seats with the latch system to hold the seat in place so it doesn’t slide around in the car when not in use.

He is 4 year old, 39" tall, and 38lbs.
He has a car seat that converts to a booster. He still uses it as a car seat but I remembered his doctor telling me that he could go to a booster at 4 years old. I want to use the safest option. Is a car seat safer than a booster for his height/ weight?
(We just saw his doctor a couple of weeks ago and I forgot to ask.)
I forgot to mention… his car seat converts to a hight back booster and just the regular booster you put on the seat (no back).
Thanks everyone! It looks like I need to dig for the owner’s manual.

My brother has been stealing things for a long time.

The first instance I can recall was that I had a coin jar in my room, and I’d put a couple dollar coins in it. I noticed one day that they were all gone, so I asked my parents to confront him about it. He admitted to taking "about ," so my mom made him pay me , though I was sure there had been more in there. (seems odd to me to side with the thief on the amount stolen)

Sometime after that, my dad caught him coming out of my father’s room carrying his wallet, basically caught red handed here.

Last year while I was at college, he was caught shoplifting from a store, he took a pack of gum or something, and the friend he was with took a sip of a drink then put it back on the shelf. He was caught by the camera’s, and they called our parents and let him off with a warning.

Last week, he took a blank roll of receipts from the grocery store, because "it was laying under the counter. its just a piece of paper." My parents found out and confronted him, and his argument was "its just a piece of paper, it was okay to take it." He seems to think that what he did was okay. My father insisted that he take it back to the store manager, and tell him that he took it, figuring that would make an impression when the manager told him the implications of what he’d done. Instead, my mom took him to the store, and stood at a distance while he handed it to a cashier, really not hammering in the point at all.

The most recent incident happened yesterday. We went on a short family trip in my dad’s van. My dad keeps a couple dollars under his car visor, in case he needs to pay off something small (like bridge toll). Yesterday, he had under there. Our car wasn’t locking, so we took all the valuables out of the car (including the ) temporarily. When we were getting ready to drive back home, my dad got out everything, and put it on my brother’s seat while they put everything back in its place. Later that night, I noticed that there were only now in the visor. I confronted him, and he admitted to taking it.

I’ve tried getting my parents to do something, but they seem to think nothing can be done. He’s almost 18, and I really think he should be more grown up than this.

I don’t know what to do. My parents tell me to stay out of it, but they don’t punish him, and he steals from me, so I don’t particularly want to stay out of it as I am losing money and feel unsafe in my own house.

What really bothers me is that he is about to get his eagle scout rank. As an eagle scout myself, I know that a scout should be "trustworthy and loyal." An eagle scout should be someone you can trust. I am feeling conflicted in that I do not think he should make eagle scout if this is how he acts, but he’s my brother, should I let it slide?

I’m looking for any advice on how to deal with this, and also what to do about the eagle scout rank.
Thank you
My mom says that me having a problem with his stealing is just "sibling rivalry."

My problem is that these are just the times that he’s been caught. If he’s been caught a couple times, I feel pretty sure that he hasn’t been caught other times.

I had a similar dream again. I am still not sure what to make of it.

I am a long-time member of the San Diego Zoo. I even worked there for a few years during and after High School. When I went there today with my children, I noticed new "Corona Carts" scattered throughout the Zoo…like Popcorn Wagons or Ice Cream Stations. Is it REALLY NECESSARY to enjoy alcoholic beverages while walking around the park? Previously, I assume they only served alcoholic beverages in the sit-down restaurants. Now, Zoo-goers and able to stroll through the park sipping their Corona’s with slices of lime. Even SEA WORLD…who is OWNED BY Anheuser-Busch has private designated areas where park-goers can drink responsibly. My own opinion is that this is irresponsible and just plain WRONG. The ZOO is a FAMILY place for CHILDREN and adults, alike. What message does this send to our children? What could the Zoo Officials have been thinking? Is it really just to make yet another buck?

Traditional Christianity has adhered to the legitimacy and efficacy of an infant baptism. The signs and symbols of the sacrament of initiation claim the newborn for Christ according to Catholicism.

Many atheists claim that because an infant "lacks belief in God’s" they are appropriately deemed atheists, but this simplistic formula begs the question; Are not then dogs, cats and fish atheists?

Is atheism the unique property of agents capable of considering (and rejecting) the idea of a God?

Is theism the unique property of agents capable of considering (and accepting) the idea of a God?

I swear I’ve looked at 10 different websites but cannot find one that gives any info besides ages 4-8 need to be in a booster. My daughter is only 9 1/2 months old and 17 lbs / 27" so I know I won’t be turning her around anytime soon but I’m trying to figure out what kind of car seat to buy. We’re currently using the carrier/stroller combo that was my niece’s but my sister is due again in December so I’ll need to get a new one for my car. She will be 14 months old and probably just about 20-22 lbs in December. Anyone know where I can get this info?

We have an older truck that doesn’t have carseats. Everything I ready says "Don’t put kids in the front seat because of air bags," but we don’t have air bags.
The truck has a small second row of seating, but it is so difficult to get the kids in and out that we gave up using the truck once we had kids.

Is it safe to put my 3-year-old (in 5-point harness carseat) or 5-year-old (in booster) in the front seat?

One of my friends sent this to me I think this is a good story!

I wanted to know if i would have to pay to have my childs car seat checked as baggage?

I found this on Delta’s website :
"——————————————————————————–

Strollers & Child Restraint Seats
Children’s strollers and seat restraints are not counted as part of the standard baggage and therefore can easily be checked for free. For your convenience these items may be checked at curbside, the ticket counter, or at the gate.

Child restraint seats may be brought on board the plane in certain circumstances. For instance, if there is an open passenger seat in your row, you may place your child in an FAA-approved child restraint in that seat during take-off and landing. If an empty passenger seat is not available for your child restraint, the item must be checked at the gate by a Delta representative."

Now, Because they can be easily checked for free, Are they? And how do you package your car seat for flying? Thanks you !

Is it safe for an infant to be carried in a "Snuggly" infant carrier or any similar carrier in front or back of the parent while the parent is mowing the lawn with a regular gas powered lawn mower. (The mother is allergic to the mold that is in grass).

Which is a good wrap or sling for short women. I am only 4’11" and I would like to carry my baby in a sling or wrap but not sure which is the right one to buy.

Can you guys recommend any?
