I just want to ask to the All Whites: Be pround of yourselves! You guys have done an amazing job and there's nothing to apologize or be sorry for. I'm Brazilian and my heart has been divided in two supporting Brazil and New Zealand in this World Cup. And as the show goes on, I just wish I could see more of the humbleness and passion the All Whites brought into this competition. You guys were great.
yeah its been a while now since i last said 'im proud to be a kiwi' The team did awsome more than any one expected. I love seeing nz talent exploited internationally it just shows the world what our little nation has more to offer. I spent 3 nyts staying up to watch yous, waking my houshold up at all hours of the morning and believe me its something i would do again!!! All Whites -2010-Nz Champs-Nz Winners-Nz Heros!!!!!!
i have a 21 and 20 year old. When I had my children The brest feeding thing was no different. As soon as I had made the decission to bottle feed I was asked by staff at the hospital when was I going to go home. I simperthise with the women on your artical. the attitude of the staff has not changed. Why can't you bottle feed its ok. We all know that brest is best. One can't brest feed for what ever reason. the decission that a person takes is ok. My children did not suffer and did not spend more time in hospital sick or go to the Dr more than any other brest feed child.
Was stoked to hear the happy ending regarding the charitable acts after the filthiest flat story. Good-hearted behaviour can be hard to find sometimes, but those kids and charities make me proud to be a kiwi!
Principals boycotting National Standards Training: I am a teacher who recently attended the National Standards Training that was mentioned on TV3 news tonight. I am not surprised that people are boycotting it - their concerns are valid and most aptly summed up by the opening statement of the trainers "The implementation of National Standards is like building a plane in the air". If this is the attitude of the trainers - how do you expect the principals and school leaders to take it seriously?? Autistic Teenager Article: Many children with autism have behavioural issues as they go through their teenage years. Behaviour support for these teenagers must be a very comprehensive approach that includes monitoring the diet. Many (not all) people with autism can find dietery changes of benefit. I was quite appalled to see the young man sitting in a corner drinking a coke and eating a bag of chips. Maybe some of the extreme behaviour could be managed with some dietery control. Where are the agencies that should be helping this family to improve this young mans quality of life. How is Campbell Live helping the situation? Is nation wide coverage of the young man the best way to help? I do hope that the family have been put in touch with some appropriate support networks that are their to help rather than cash in on a 'human interest' story.
A quite moronic view from the lady discussing breast feeding. We are not third world, we have choices and we should not feel gulity about bottle feeding. It is about what is best for all involved. RegardsFather of twins (now five years old)...who couldn't help with breast feeding!!
