There are legalities involved, but it's basically a signing over of guardianship of the child and can be done by paying some official paperwork fees to get the process underway.

I'm so sorry to hear of your difficulties.. I myself am trying for a child and have had a miscarriage in the past. It's the most emotionally painful thing a woman can go through. Right now I am trying to adopt a child through a private party.. No lawyers, no mess, just a simple signing … Read more

It all depends on the reason why you were depressed and if the situation has changed at all. I once went through a terrible depression for years (age 13-16) until my situation changed. I haven't had a spell of depression anywhere near as bad as that since then. Try to maintain a more positive attitude … Read more

The best thing you can do is leave it where it is and make sure it has plenty of clean shells to choose from. =) Make sure you keep it's environment moist and warm to help it out!

Hermies are difficult to care for. You should be much happier with a rat.. They're easier to care for and play with. =) Just make sure you handle it gently and often for small amounts of time until it gets used to you, and you'll have a good friend. ^-^

Hermies only molt after they bury themselves several inches under the sand. 

They only come out of their shell to molt or change shells. If your hermie has come out of his shell, he is probably dying, or has died. 
I've had this happen to me a few times. I'm sorry … Read more

The biggest thing about keeping a house clean is to not leave things laying about. If it's a mess (spills/dirty dishes) it will look like your house is dirty and nasty. If it's cluttered (kids toys, newspapers, and a bit of everything everywhere) it will look very unkept and chaotic. Here are some tips to … Read more

The rock in your dream symbolizes strength, permanence, stability and integrity. The two-headed snake beneath it refers to cooperation and teamwork in some relationship. Being bitten by it symbolized hidden fears and worries that are threatening you. Being chased by it is a metaphor for some form of insecurity. Means you are avoiding a situation … Read more

Hermits never come out of their shell unless they are molting, exchanging their old shell for a new shell, or have been mugged of their own shell. 

If a hermit crab sees an occupied shell he wants, he will battle the other hermie for his shell - sometimes it kills … Read more

Don't be so competitive! You don't have to try to be better than her in the things you do. The better person should be able to walk away from the other. But stopping your competitive behavior does not mean that you are weaker - in fact it makes you stronger. If it's difficult to do, … Read more

Lavender oil is effective against fleas. I have a baby shampoo with lavendar oil in it, and it killed the fleas better than my flea shampoo. It didn't hurt the kittens or the dog. I'm sure if you got some lavender oil and used it in a natural spray, it would be effective and safe … Read more

My hair is baby fine and wavy/curly. I use Garnier Fructis Blow Dry Straightening Perfector balm before drying my hair, then the straightening spray before I straighten my hair. It helps to have a shampoo/conditioner set that has ARGAN OIL in it. If you can find products with argan oil, you are on the right … Read more
