Focus on the Family Has a Chance to Actually Focus on the Family?

Question by Angel Bob: Focus on the Family has a chance to actually focus on the family?
Turns out James Dobson, ex-leader of FOTF and their radio show, has gotten kicked out of the organization and had his radio show canceled. LAWL!
Anyone thing the organization has a chance of course-correcting to actually focusing on issues that are ruining families like domestic abuse, juvenile delinquency, child abuse, drug addiction, alcoholism, gangs, the faulty healthcare and education systems, try to put orphans in good families, marriage consoling and reform the foster care system instead of discrimination? Or has he just caused to much damage?

How Can I Help My Son Who Doesn’t Want Help? He Has No Goals, How Can I Motivate Him?

Question by strawberriesilove: How can I help my son who doesn’t want help? He has no goals, how can I motivate him?
My 17 yr old son suffers from mental illness. When he was younger he had ADHD, ODD and was learning disabled. As he got older he only got worse. By the time he was 14 yrs old our state’s laws (PA) gave him the right to refuse treatment. Ever since then he has flat out refused all attempts to help him. Counselors, social workers and educators have been unable to reach him. Family and friends pleas to him have fallen on deaf ears. When he was home all he wanted to do was lay around, watch TV, use the computer, listen to music and eat. He dropped out of school in the 10th grade and has recently begun experimenting with drugs and stealing from me. Currently he’s in an in-patient drug rehab still refusing to cooperate with the program. As his Mom I am at my wits ends. I don’t know what else to do. He wants to come home but lacks even the most basic of skills to get and keep a job. If this were your son what would you do? Honest, sincere, non-judgemental replies only please. Thank you.

How Does One Terminate Parental Rights in CA?

Question by avenger831968: How does one terminate parental rights in CA?

Best answer:

Answer by strike_eagle29
YOU HAVE TO GO TO COURT. TERMINATING PARENTAL RIGHTS HAS TO BE OK WITH BOTH PARENTS. IF THE FATHER WANTS TO TERMINATE HIS RIGHTS SO THAT CHILD SUPPORT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE PAID THE MOTHER HAS TO OK IT. YOU CAN’T JUST TERMINATE PARENTAL RIGHTS. IF THE MOTHER WANTS TO TERMINATE THE FATHERS RIGHTS BECAUSE THE NEW BOYFRIEND WANTS TO MARRY HER AND ADOPT THE KID THE FATHER HAS TO BE OK WITH IT. ONCE EITHER PARENTS RIGHTS ARE TERMINATED THEY ARE NO LONGER RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. YOU START IN FAMILY COURT. YOU HAVE TO FILE A PETITION. ONCE YOU GO TO THE COURT HOUSE THEY WILL INSTRUCT YOU ON HOW TO GO ABOUT IT.

What’s a Good Topic for a Position Essay on Abuse?

Question by impersonal.: What’s a good topic for a position essay on abuse?
I have a position essay to write w/ a theme of abuse, but I can’t think of a topic I actually care to write on. It needs to have at least two sides to it, but they don’t necessarily need to be opposing. I need topics more specific then just the vague idea of drug abuse, child abuse, etc. I know I sound picky, but I do need help! Thanks!

Will Military Police in the ARMY Help Me Become a Police Officer?

Question by alex: Will Military Police in the ARMY help me become a police officer?
So im 21 years old. I work full time and i take classes on criminal law. But i only take 1-2 classes every semester because my job limits my availability for school. On top of that.. I only took 1 class throughout my college career. I just recently went back to school so thats why I’m late. Im not getting any younger and it would take me YEARS to complete school at the rate im going right now. I just want to start my life already instead of working paycheck to paycheck, you know what i mean? Anyways my ultimate goal is join LAPD Gang unit division but i understand LAPD is very strict when it comes to the hiring process. Although i dont have a criminal record, i have a dirty past when it comes to stealing and drug abuse. I have never messed around with hard drugs but i do smoke weed on the daily. I know I have to stop and i will no doubt about it. So i was thinking to myself, why am i working at a dead-end job when i can be getting paid about the same or possibly more PLUS benefits doing Military Police that will actually help me in my future of becoming a cop. But my question is, How much will Military Police help me in becoming a cop? and will i finish school by the time i get out of my 1st term in the military? I live in Los Angeles so Im wondering which country is the most common to be deployed to as MP? Also, can I just apply to any Police Dept right after i get out of the army? I was thinking LAPD but knowing how tough it is to get hired by LAPD, maybe i should start off with the low dept such as Torrance PD, Pasadena PD, or Santa Ana PD…Please help me Thanks…
