As Thousands of Children are Again Detained (a recent news report said), ALL should take note and precautions

ALL Parents need to face the music that 'kids can be up for grabs' with rules and regs one cannot even imagine...Denial is helpful in ways, but never preparing for the 'craziest turns of events' is not a cure all or sound protective strategy...Knowledge is power. 

Tune into some basics about our own 'civil war' playing out in courts and many homes and parental or intimate relationships (kids, pets, property and adults can all be put in peril by conflict, mental illness, drug use, and much more...and again, No One Warns Anyone...)

Sadly 'getting legally married' may not be the most practical

Life Care Specialist...or "Elderly Care Consultant.." or End Of Life Doula (EOLD) roles all seek to assist people to face health challenges and declines in health and mortality...

As part of a group of caring individuals who have taken trainings to become an "E-OLD" or  End of Life Doula (a support person in terms of information and care, not as a medical, legal or social service professional), we share many ideas.

One that is coming up is about 'what to call ourselves' in terms of what people can readily understand, consider and accept to help us connect with them in a caring, non-medical, non-legal yet professional manner.

A New Neighborly Start at the Start of the New Year, 2019 (and even monthly or weekly...)

This post has been brewing for a while and a hundred folks had read something about the problems that can creep up in and around one's property and relationships with neighbors.

I figure it could be a plus to ring a bell of clearance and light a candle in the darkness of confusion of the Past..to help us start a new path of care and considerate communication and concessions without growing conflict or courts and police, etc.

Just good ol' neighborly making a plan to 'go along to get along' with taking turns being nice and sharing an interest in cooperation over competition.

Welcoming 2019 with Reflections on the Last Decade...DRiVE ( a book I just read by Dan Pink ) says good to think with flow and with others...

After many nice events in Connecticut in December at churches and nursing homes and libraries, walks and talks, and some in Great Barrington MA (including a nice clothing and item swap, always a big hit whether small or larger with donations picked up by a non-profit), I got to travel to NYC.
