Answer by ineedahotti
Jack him off . He will be your friend for life.

Answer by rose_merrick
you did spook him. Dogs communicate by feeling your energy. If you give out nervous signals, he will be upset and nervous because you are. You must learn to be comfortable with him, or this won’t work and it will be disasterous for both you and the dog! Contact a vet and ask about dog behavuoralist specialists in your area – and both of you go along. this should help you as much as the dog! Good luck!

lol idk dude. i havent come out to my parents yet lol. good luck tho, tell me how it goes lol

Answer by Makayla Milan
There are many factors to include…how old are you? is your family religious? is your local community accepting of gays? No coming out story is exactly the same. My mother is religious, but her and I have always been very close. I came out to her first, when I was 15. At 16 I told my friends and the rest of my family. Some had issues with it, others didn’t. My family has been very supportive of me over the years. I was blessed in this regard. Some people I know weren’t so lucky. They were kicked out of their home, disowned, beaten, etc. I told everyone by letter, because I was scared to tell them face to face. Once they had time to take in what was in the letter, they approached me when they were ready to talk about it. My father has actually never spoken to me about it, and I came out 10 years ago to him. LOL He knows though, and supports me in life regardless. He’s met boyfriends, and tells me all the time that anyone special in my life is always welcome to his house. You may try doing some research online to get ideas on what might best work for you. Best of luck!

Answer by Fang
your mind will want to do other things when your revising so I try to meet it half way, I listen to music as I’m revising. Staring at books will hardly do anything i find it useful if you get a pen and paper and try to re-write what you are reading in your own words (it helps for some people if they draw pictures). Also make a time-table how much time your going to use revising which subjects and when your going to do it. Take regular breaks maybe every 15-20 minutes otherwise your brain gets tired and starts to wander. Hope this helps, if it’s any consolation i’m in year 9 and going into year 10 after the holidays and it’s not all that bad

Answer by ?Jules?
I work ina Nursery with a Downs child. How lovely she is! The Welcome should be a quiet one… wave to her and say ‘Hello (name)’ then leave her with mum or carer to come in at her own pace.Give her a visual timetable so she knows what to expect next. Give her the choice of two pictures of activities to choose from when she has chosen try to encourage play for a ‘good length of time’ so she is not flitting from one activity to another. When she has has enough show her two more pictures to choose from on so on. Don’t subject her to too much noise either. Song time is more useful if she can join in with action songs. Try a go along at her own pace but on the same lines try to get her to conform to a certain extent so she knows what is expected of her.

This is my experience of Downs anyway! Good luck with your assignment!

Answer by surf_chick_lucy
Just be nice and ask them how they are. Treat them like ayou would a normal child. Award them and praise them if they do something well. I know this because my best m8 has down syndrome.
Good Luck wit ur assigment.
Lucy.

Answer by Smom
Children with Down syndrome tend to need sensory stimulation…lights, sounds (but not too loud), movement, etc. Additionally, they tend to have issues with textures, so they may not be inclined to play with something like Play-Doh right away, but need gradual interaction with things.

My son is two and has Down syndrome…we have always tended to get him toys that make noise and have flashing lights. As for interacting with other children, it’s been my experience that they need a little time to “take in” a new experience or situation, and then once they feel comfortable, they will interact.

Music is another great way to get them involved!

Hope this helps!!

Thanks

Answer by Justmeinthisworld
are you in the UK

what kiind of special needs?

give them as much independence as possible

Answer by mamoo
What type of special needs and how does the individual function? I agree with justmein…..give them as much independence as possible. Teach life skills and skills for independent living. Even if they never reach complete independence, as much as possible is much better than none.

When you meet his, just be charming and smile. You don’t have to talk a lot, but tell them some GOOD things about you. They might understand you’re nervous. By the way, my boyfriend’s mom is a dictator so I might not know…

Answer by Timid Women Rarely Make History
None honey. Parents will grill. It’s like a right of passage when their daughter especially starts to date. The more you try and shush them,the more I think they will grill him. So just grin and bear it. It will be okay. He’s probably expecting it anyhow.

Answer by i am a devoted Christian
let your parents ask the questions. they dont want a perverted guy that cares only for sex for their daughter. they do it to protect you. if a guy hit you. tell your dad and see how he acts. if some one hit my sister, i would become hysterical.

Answer by grundy
Well…. If you tend to run warmer than your spouse, your child may want to sleep on you chest while you sleep (its cute and I enjoyed it, but it got kind of annoying). If you let the baby sleep in the bed with you guys don’t worry, no matter how heavy of a sleeper you are you wont roll on top of the baby.

In the way of diapers, yeah i didnt think a baby could stink bad. Plain and Simple.

If you have a shorter temper, believe the baby will push and you will want to throw him/her out of a window at times, just keep in mind that they don’t know anything. my 16 month old hardly hears me but when she gives me a hug it makes my day better. Also. when you get home from work and significant other starts crying and laughing at the same time for no reason. Take the baby for a bit and let her take a shower or bath or somethin it’ll help. I can give more if you want but that would be LOOOOOONG

Answer by BigWillyBigTime
Just make sure your new kid isn’t purple and splotchy, it might be one of those Dawn of the Dead kids trying to make a run for it.

Answer by rikku
Hi there

Congratulations … I’m not a dad but a mum so I can tell u how u could make it a bit easier on ur wife/girlfriend.

If she’s not breastfeeding help with making and cleaning bottles is fundemental.

If she’s breastfeeding the first 6 weeks she will feel very sore and it would be nice if u got up for her to get the baby. Always make sure she has a drink and something to eat next to her.

I coosleep with my child but even though is very enjoyable I would not reccomend it. When u are exhausted u or ur partner could roll over him or overheat him. It will be harder to make them sleep in their own cot once they get used to sleeping with u. When ur partner is ready u may wanna get intimate and the baby in the bed is a real turn off.

After a woman has a baby she may feel very weepy and overwhelmed. So take over nappy changing if u can and bath time. A messy house could upset her so just clean up abit. It doesnt have to be spotless.

Newborn nappies dont really smell that bad. Its ur baby u wont even care.

Sing to the baby lullybies to put him to sleep.

keep at home some infacol for colics

Buy some Ashton and Parsons teething powder for when he starts teething.

Be supportive at all times even if it can get frustrating if u work full time. The first few months are hard work but it gets easier as the baby gets older.

Give ur wife/girlfriend me time to have a bath and make herself feel better

Gud luck!!

Answer by Star
Your rules but be respectful.

Answer by Snowflake C
School
1) Do homework as soon as you get them.
2) Study your lecture notes everyday. This way, it’ll always be fresh on your mind and you can ask questions next time if something you didn’t understand.
3) Avoid watching tv or waste time on Internet or chatting with friends. If you must keep it to a minimum no more than 30 minutes.
4) Ask teacher for extra help as soon as possible but don’t come with nothing. You have had to work through the problem first and been stuck.
5) Get a tutor if you’re having a truly hard time with courses or ask your parents if they can help you. Also asking teacher’s help too.
6) Keep an agenda to mark down dates for tests and assignments.
7) Hang out with people who are smart and get good grades. They can give you tips on how they manage their course but don’t expect them to do your work for you because they won’t. If you hang out with people who are lazy, you will be unmotivated. If you can do your homework on the computer like a term paper you can post it on GoogleDocs if you have gmail account so it will always be accessible where ever you are. I think it is useful since I dont’ want to keep carrying a usb stick and i prefer it to emailing to myself.
9) Take lots of notes in class and pay attention. If you didn’t understand something the teacher said, ask him or her.
10) Even if you did terrible on mistake or test, you need to figure out why you got it wrong. I know it’s not easy to look at your mistakes but that is the only way to learn. If you still don’t understand, ask the teacher if he/she can explain those parts.
11) When working through a problem, always draw diagrams so you can visually see all the variables you are given and what you need to figure out.
12) For big words you don’t understand, always look up the dictionary to be sure you understand the word. Don’t be lazy about that. Write the definition in your notes and try to re-read it several times even if you don’t understand it.
13) If the teacher tells you what he will cover next class, you should be reading about that chapter beforehand before class so when you come to class as he’s talking you will be able to follow what he/she is saying.
14) If you have trouble in subjects, you can always google on the Internet. There are tons of tutorials, videos, websites such as Math, English, Science.
15) Always try to work out a concept that you learned by making examples so that you won’t forget it later on and you confirm with teacher if you unsure

Around the house
1) Always clean up immediatly after you make a mess, after you use the shower, after you eat, after you spill food, etc. Don’t put it off or you will forget and your folks will be angry.
2) Don’t buy junk that you have nowhere to keep. Don’t buy things you don’t need and won’t ever use.
3) Always remember to turn off the tv, lights, computer, etc. Otherwise you can waste lots of energy and make your parents mad.
4) Clean your room as soon as it gets a little messy. Don’t put it off. It gets harder to clean a big mess.

Personal
1) Always take a shower/bath every day. Clean well but don’t waste hot water. Clean the bathtub after.
2) Eat a balanced meal with veggies, protein, and fruit, calcium
3) Comb your hair. Pull it back if it is long.
4) Don’t get angry and overreact. Always be calm.
5) Brush your teeth before/after you got to bed and after every meal.
6) Floss your teeth.
7) Always speak kindly of people. Never gossip. If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything. Don’t hang around with people who are slackers or like to waste time.
9) Always be polite, acknowledge someone you know by saying hi
10) When you hurt or make a mistake to someone, always apologize and be sincere.
11) Aways show appreciate to your family and friends like give them hugs and complement them when they do a good job in something or just tell them you’re proud of them and why.
12) Support your family and friends when they are having trouble. Try to help them when you can. Be attentive and notice when they are not well.
13) Save your money and spend wisely. Don’t spend right away. Think about whether you really need the item or not or can borrow from your family. But be sure to remember to return something you borrowed in good condition and small note of thanks and love.
14) Always remember loved one’s birthdays. Be thoughtful and practical in your gifts. What do they really want and not what you want. Always keep a receipt in case they don’t like it, it can be returned except if it was “no return sale”. If they are too hard to get, just get them a money card to their favourite store.
15) Always be positive, confident and cheerful.

any tips to help me through it?

Answer by yogaman007

Don’t wear anything too revealing and remember to not swear. Also make sure your hair and make-up is tailored to the occasion. You only have one shot at a first impression.
