I love my wire very much and we Are Back together again. 1 have forgiven Hector seeing another Man and 1 agreed to accept the baby and raise it As my own. The problem now is that the other Man i very excited about becoming a father he wants to support the cd lid and have a role in raising it. My wife cannot make up her mind about what she wants to do.

Us form Parent wants answers after dental visit something happened today that i feel parents Over Here should do aware of. I look my 3-year-old daughter to the dentist in Hanau to have her front Teeth worked on. She got a shot and cried. The drilling Hurt and scared her so she cried. I wanted to go to her but parents arc not allowed 10 go with their children even a 3-year-old. So when she was close to hysteria i moved to a place where r could Sec the dentist working on her. I saw him putting hit hand Over her Mouth to quiet her. Forcing her to breathe out her nose. Only be could to she had a cold. I walked closer and saw her body heaving for air and then he Shook her. I stopped him and looked at her. She Wax hysterically crying in red As a. Tomato and obviously traumatized. The dentist informed me this was the usual action taken to prevent children from crying. They Are taught this in denial school. This procedure closely resembles abuse. Seeing it firsthand and seeing the emotional upheaval it caused my daughter i would t care if god himself taught this procedure in is wrong. I did t want my child to experience that or to be treated like that. Parents should be Able to Comfort their children just Silling Iacre holding their hand would probably help More limn . I was never put through anything like that from any dentist and my Mother always stayed with me. This dentist did not even ask Formy permission or explain this procedure to me or my husband. Even if he had asked my permission he would t have gotten in. My children Are not treated like that. She trusted me i trusted him. How do i convince her to Trust dentists again know dentists cannot always do painless work but there arc other ways to quid a child. This procedure should be eliminated or at least explained to the parents and permission Given every time they visit the dentist. Germain Clouatre Babenhausen West Germany editor s note cd. Gary r. Badger 7lh medical com Ped tric dentistry consultant replies you re right parents should be informed about the use of Hind Over month technique i com and give per Mission for its me. It is i technique that when properly used can prevent hysteria who Are Misbe hiting. The technique simply hairs the child to choose Between having the hand in the Mouth or reducing stopping the crying. No shaking or violence la used just the placing of the hand on the Mouth while gently saying to the child when you slap crying 1 will re move my the alternative la controlling a child1 behaviour with techniques such As these is sedation and or Hosp Lilly lion or nol being treated until the child learns to be have. Both of these alternatives carry Uncertain risks. Children can Leun in Trust a dentist by process culled this involves a series of appoint ments where the dentist progressively accomplishes More and More Complex procedures Al a Pace tolerated by the Pedi Alric denial specialist can be most helpful in treating a child such As that described. Often parents Are allowed in the treatment area provided the child will respond to the dentist and nol the Parent. This determination is made with each child. Before any treatment is undertaken the Parent should be fully informed of the technique to be used and give permission for such treatment. Put that dog on a Leash writer urges i would like to address a problem thai i Haven t seen in the paper ii concerns dogs off of a Leash first of All i own a dog. When i walk her she is always on a Leash. I have had the problem of other people walking their dogs without leashes. I under stand How Good it feels la be Able to walk your dog without a Leash. I wish i could do the same but i also realize what an inconvenience ii is to people who have their dogs on leashes. Most of these Dags will come Back to their owners after they Call them four or five times. 1 wonder if they realize what could happen to their so loved animals one of the times it does t respond or react to their Call my dog is a Large Breed and could Hurt their dog badly. Their dog could be hit by a car the dog i m address ing ran across the Road after mine. Vet Bills could be expensive if my dog were injured. I could be badly Hurt because my dog is next to me where she should be. Children could be hurl in the process.
