Shutterfly

I am always taking pictures of my son and of my animals and never have time to get them printed out, so they stay on my computer forever. Then I get upset when something happens to my pictures on my computer. So I started looking for a cheap way to get my pictures developed and I found this site called Shutterfly. When I first joined I was able to get free pictures all I had to do was pay shipping and handling. The company started sending me emails letting me know about their specials and every once in awhile I would get an email stating I could get "something" for free, once again all I had to pay was shipping and handling. I have gotten free address labels and a free mouse pad. I just sent off for free ceramic mug for a mom. I was able to decorate it with my own pictures the way I want to. I know she will like it.

So if you are looking for a place to get pictures developed you may want to consider Shutterfly for your picture needs. They offer all kinds of gifts as well.

Should parents spank their kids?

With everything that is going on these days it is obvious that children are lacking some type of discipline from their parents. Back in the old days it was unheard of for parents to spank their children with various objects like belts or switches from trees, but in today's society it is frowned upon by the government and  most parents. In some places it is considered to be child abuse, of course some will argue with you and say differently.

Parents should only spank their children when they are calm and rational and it fits the punishment. If a parent hits while angry then they might not be clearly thinking and could cause harm to that child, thus the child abuse comes in. Anytime a mark is left on the child, it is called abuse.

Sometimes as parents, we need to think about the situation at hand and think about the punishment before dishing it out. Sure spanking may help some kids but it doesn't help all kids. As a matter of fact it causes more damage to more children than we think.

So I think spanking should only be done when the parent is calm and rationale think about the situation at hand.
