Reply:I%26#039;m a 6 1/2 women%26#039;s


therefore 41/2 in Converse because the sizes are men sizes.





I see them everywhere, go to your local mall.


Logically you should be a 3. Try the the biggest childrens%26#039; size and go from there.
Reply:bells or any ladyfootwear store! or you could go to a kids shoe store and check your foot on one of those measuring things!
Reply:ya if your a woman u subtract 2 cuz they are in men sizes... im a size 6 and i wear 4.
Reply:ROSS dept store, Hot Topic, Journey%26#039;s, Shoe Carnival and Flea Markets are your best bet.

Do parents ever...?

Try taking a walk in their child%26#039;s shoes? I mean, when they punish them. I understand that when we do something wrong, we must be punished. But, do they ever take a walk in the teen%26#039;s shoes and see how odd and unjustified the punishment is?

Do parents ever...?
um, yeah. kids seems to forget that their parents were kids once upon a time too and changes are they did the same things you are doing now.
Reply:I have tremendous empathy for what teens go thru but as a parent I need to protect and guide them from these things. But I try not to make it punishment I try to make it a learning experience. Like what ever they did, I try something that might help them learn why it wasn%26#039;t a good idea or the dangers involved in it. I was there and I didn%26#039;t always make the right decisions, no one does but if we miss the opportunity to teach and help them learn we are failing at our jobs.
Reply:Um... they have already been there and done that. They were kids once too, in case you forgot.
Reply:Yes parents know about punishment because think back...They were children/teenagers once to.
Reply:Lets Just remember here that parents are just normal human beings. They were teenagers and would of felt the odd and unjustified punishments to, but this would of aided in them growing up and being the best they can be and the best parent, this means punishing there children too. It works if you work it.
Reply:Believe it or not.. most parents were teens once too asking the same questions.. it is a life long journey and sometimes parents need to be reminded what it was like to have all the pressure of being a teenager. And sometimes teens deserve the punishment they get..
Reply:No, because we%26#039;ve been in your shoes at one time too. Granted it%26#039;s a different year...but we have still been there and experienced the same troubles you have. The morals may have been different, as well as the language and dress, but it was still the teen years.
Reply:Most parents who care for their offspring try to see some positive outcome from the disciplinary actions they take with their children, unless they were themselves, the victims of child abuse. Times change over ten to twelve year periods, which most people consider to be a %26quot;generation%26quot;. However, the natural consequences of poor decision-making NEVER change. (For example, wreckless driving may result in serious injuries or vehicular homicide .) That is why odd and unjustified punishment is frequently better than what happens when a very bad decision is made and goes unpunished. The poor decision is then, REPEATED until natural consequences take over. The whole idea behind punishment is to encourage better decision-making on the part of the child. So, when you behave positively and make sensible decisions there is no need for punishment of any kind. Please remember that. Best wishes.
Reply:I did walk in teenagers shoes once a long time ago. And if they are stupid enough to make the same mistakes we did, after telling them the consequences, then they deserve the punishment given.
Reply:WAA WAA WAA, Life sucks, then you die, get over it
Reply:have u ever tried walking in their shoes?? when u do, then u%26#039;ll understand.
Reply:Not only did they walk in their child%26#039;s shoes, they ran in those shoes, for years. They were teenagers before they had you, so they know better what%26#039;s good and what%26#039;s bad. If you ever try to think from their perspective, you%26#039;ll understand.
Reply:nope. thats why were always in so much damn trouble
Reply:No. Not for me at least.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s their job to do that, walk in your shoes. Then we would in fact have teenagers overseeing teenagers in effect. The purpose of adulthood and parenting is to pass on certain morals and boundries. Personally I don%26#039;t believe in long periods of grounding, it seems to me more punishment for parents than the kids, but young people and punished people in general always feel it is too much or unjustified, that%26#039;s just human nature. I%26#039;m sure Saddam is feeling that way about now as well.
Reply:Not ALL of us have forgotten our teens...that is WHY we dole out the %26quot;unjustified%26quot; punishments. Because we have BEEN there.
Reply:yes we have we were once children to that got our share of punishment!! you need a little correction in your life makes us stronger . wait till you get in the real world isnt nice !!
Reply:parents were already in your shoes


and you probally have it better than they did

Really could use some physics help.?

A 45.0kg child stands near the edge of a merry-go-round in a local park. If the radius of the merry-go-round is 2.50 meters, and the coefficient of static friction between the child%26#039;s shoes and the surface is 0.6, find the maximum angular speed of the merry-go-round if the child is not to fall off. (Assume the only centripetal force acting on the child is the friction between his shoes and the surface.

Really could use some physics help.?
the centripetal acceleration is -w^2*r





that requires that


m*w^2*r=m*g*µs


at the maximum





solving for w


w=sqrt(g*µs/r)


plugging in the numbers


w=sqrt(9.81*0.6/2.5)


w=1.53 rad/sec

Are a child's tap shoe size the same as their regular shoe size? What should I look for?

I%26#039;m looking to buy tap shoes for my boy/girl twins age 4. I%26#039;m planning to buy them on ebay since I know they will outgrow them quickly and may not stick with it anyway. I don%26#039;t want to spend a whole lot of money. But, boy, is it hard to find taps for boys!

Are a child%26#039;s tap shoe size the same as their regular shoe size? What should I look for?
different manufacturers have different size charts
Reply:Don%26#039;t buy them on ebay or anywhere where your children aren%26#039;t trying them on. Payless and Wal-mart carry tap shoes at reasonable prices. Go ahead and buy the tie taps for your son. Take the ties out and put in elastic for him. At this age it isn%26#039;t going to pay to buy boy taps. At our dance studio we have the little ones try the shoes on with heavy socks, then as their feet grow they can wear thinner socks or just tights.
Reply:maybe be cheeky and try them on in a shop first or ask a fellow dancer if you can try theirs to get an idea of size. then work from there
Reply:close to it

What's the feminists response to Bratz, Britney & children's programming?

It%26#039;s 2008... and girls still see and are socialized by images of fashion-conscious on-camera preteens %26amp; teens %26amp; immature 20-somethings (all about the looks)... where %26quot;cute boys%26quot; is a theme (if you%26#039;ve ever watched cable-TV %26#039;girls%26#039; programming) but yet, adventure %26amp; competition %26amp; training is a thing for boys%26#039; shows (Bratz talk about shopping, shoes %26amp; matching tops)... What is the Feminists%26#039; response to even TV media/news being All Britney, Lohan %26amp; celeb actresses stylings -- other than %26quot;don%26#039;t watch%26quot;? Where%26#039;s the collective approaches to Rap vidoes that still, in 2008 show images of pimp %26amp; heeled booty-shaking that was criticized 10-15 years ago (but ignored, actually praised.. really... by the glorifying of what the results/money brings a la %26#039;Pimp My Ride%26#039; %26amp; %26#039;MTV Cribs%26#039;?)... Where has the NATIONAL feminists been on this, and why don%26#039;t they have a PR/media relations team to match say, that of Jessica Simpson%26#039;? (again, we get no leadership... even.. from a woman running for President?)

What%26#039;s the feminists response to Bratz, Britney %26amp; children%26#039;s programming?
Good thing girls aren%26#039;t required to play with Bratz. It is a choice. It%26#039;s the parents%26#039; responsibility to monitor what the kids are exposed to. I boycott TV channels and companies that are irresponsible about what they sell and show. Just because you can do something doesn%26#039;t mean you should. As far as Britney is concerned, I think her public downfall, although terribly unfortunate for her, is a good lesson. There are consequences, good and bad, to every choice and nothing lasts forever.
Reply:I%26#039;m wondering the same thing. It just makes me sick when I see little %26quot;eleven-teen%26quot; year olds acting like Spears and Simpson. I%26#039;ll be interested in the response.
Reply:It%26#039;s all vapid crap, and none of it will be on my television when my daughter gets old enough to watch. In fact, I may drop cable entirely and just keep the TV for the purpose of playing DVDs.





I%26#039;m already busy buying up the old %26quot;Muppet Show%26quot; series and things like %26quot;Loony Tunes%26quot; for when she%26#039;s into cartoons.





** Thanks, Holly!
Reply:I wish that %26quot;feminists%26quot; as a group would do something about that kind of negative television. Im not a feminist per se...but I dont let my daughter play with Bratz dolls because I dont think they are a good role model. I dont let her watch videos that feature under-dressed people. I dont let her watch tv shows that Ive never watched before and dont know or approve of the content. So pretty much...Im being a Mom. If more people would be involved parents...these problems would eventually go away.





EDIT: Tracey-while you still have your cable...check and see if you have a channel called %26quot;boomarang%26quot;. It%26#039;s all old cartoons. Some as far back as I would say the 60s but some from the 80s like Smurfs and The Jetsons as well. My daughter loves it!
Reply:Feminist groups do put out a lot of their own print media that gives better role models than is offered for the masses. (See link.) But it%26#039;s naive to think that feminists are strong enough to challenge something as basic as the freedom of speech in America when parenting groups and religious groups have tried/are trying and not made much progress in stopping the stream of innate crap we get in the popular media.

Reply:It started and stopped with Ariel Levy%26#039;s Female Chauvinist Pigs. Just reading that book will be enough to make young women sit down and think about what they%26#039;re being exposed to.

Does anyone know the title of a children's picture book about a boy who finds a red flower/plant?

He lives in a world filled with football and pizza and after finding this plant, he creates a civilization based on the number 7 or 9 and uses the plant to make ink and weave backpacks? and shoes?. In the beginning, all the other kids make fun of him for being different, but at the end, they all join him.





i think it%26#039;s a one word title starting with either %26quot;A%26quot; or %26quot;S%26quot;.

Does anyone know the title of a children%26#039;s picture book about a boy who finds a red flower/plant?
omg! I remember that book! That was one of my fave books when I was a little kid! (hehe) it was really cool. I%26#039;m sorry... I don%26#039;t remember the title. It%26#039;s a really interesting book.
Reply:gosh i dunno if you are going to see this, Vickie, but I just found out the name of the book and since i can%26#039;t email you.i saw it at the library. it%26#039;s called Weslandia by Paul Fleischman or something. maybe you already know or maybe it%26#039;s not this book, but that%26#039;s the one i remember..
