i recently kinda dropped out of school to take online classes until next year, but not for any particular reason and i was told that a teacher of mine told every single one of her classes that the reason i did that is because i have mono. can she do that? thats ok for her to do?
Answer:
there is a thing as defamation of character.
People spreading lies about other people and discrediting them.
Ive only seen it in the work place, and not at school, but you could tell the principal, and even take it up to the superintendent or board of education for the region if its really bothering you.
Mono's not such a bad thing, it would be different if she said you had an STD, but it could still be percieved as negative.
If it bothers you much, report it.
Teachers shouldnt be speculating on things to their students.
Id say she/he would get reprimanded unless you really felt compelled to pay an attorney.
This is, so long as you have proof your teacher said those things.
I would sue her for slander if I were you kissyface.
only it its true, i think its contagious.
No i don`t think it is
Go to the Doctors
I don't know of any law that prevents her from doing that. However, her comments are definitely unethical. Your school may have a policy preventing her from discussing your health. Can you prove the teacher actually said you have mono? If so and if the school has some kind of privacy policy, you can take action. Notify her superior about her inappropriate comment. If that doesn't help work your way up the chain. Good luck!
I think she was trying to protect you. Mono is not necessarily an insult.

A shop at Fortune Cente did not return back my change. How do I make a complaint and get back $$$? I am upset.
She claimed to return back the change. But the change is not my change. I am short-changed.
I will go to that shop next to the uob/ocbc atm again at Fortune Cente and find the name.
Answer:
File a complaint with the manager. Since I'm sure they count the cashiers drawer each day they'll be able to see if there's extra cash in the drawer. As a former manager when working through college I can tell you that mistakes do happen, and most are honest and thus caught when the drawers are counted. If there's a camera looking at the register then they also might be able to see what you gave her, but even if there's image there's no promise they'll be able to see how much you gave her.
I'm afraid you've lost your money.You should always check your change before you leave the counter.It's your word against her's,unless you have a witness you have no case.Sorry.

A second Felony while on probation?
My daughters bio father has a felony right now. (I don't think that it matters what 4) He was put on probation for 5yrs. He is do 2 get off of probation in about 1 1/2 years. But the other day him and I went 2 court 4 unpaid child support %26 it was filed as a class A mist miner. While I was there he was 45mins late so I got 2 talk to the state prosecuting attorney alone she says she wants to dismiss the case and go with a felony. I said ok. He later showed up but neither the prosecuting attorney or I told him that they were going to refile it as a felony She just told him to pay the support 4 that month. She asked him were he was living he answered but refused 2 say who he was living with. She thinks that he is lying about his address which he had 2 report 2 his PO or he is violating probation. He has violated probation twice before. The 2nd felony I know will be another Violation b/c he's already on probation for a 1st felony. %26 if he is lying about his residence that would be another violation. My ? is once they pick him up for his 2nd felony. He will have 2 go 2 Jail until some1 pays bail 4 him he will then have 2 go 2 court 4 violating the 1st probation (I don't no how many violations this would be 4 him I no at least 3 maybe 5.)WILL THEY MAKE HIM SERVE THE SENTENCE THAT HE COULD OF SERVED IF HE WASN'T PUT ON PROBABTION OR WILL THEY AT LEAST PUT HIM BACK ON PROBATION 4 AN EVEN LONGER PERIOD OF TIME OR WILL NOTHING HAPPEN? I need 2 know what would happen even if he got an attorney 4 all of the violations b/c I no he will! Even if some1 could tell me a more then likely out come!
Answer:
Probation is far different from parole. When a person violates their parole, they can serve up to the remainder of the original sentence. When probation is violated, it can be far worse as the person is "re-sentenced" on the original crime. For example, if a person is convicted of a felony on a charge that carries, say, a ten year maximum sentence, and he is given probation instead of jail, that is usually a good deal. However, if that probation is violated, he or she can be re-sentenced up to the maximum allowable sentence. Sentencing guidelines do not apply in probation re-sentencings nor do double jeopardy implications. Also, if he gets a jail sentence for the second felony, it can be imposed consecutively to the new probation violation sentence, meaning that one will have to be completed before the other is started. This could equal a very long time.
If you don't want your daughter's bio father away for many years, I would suggest not aiding the State's Attorney as much. Certainly the father has a responsibility to pay what he owes. But this Attorney seems really shady and unprofessional. Once the sentence is handed down, there is very little chance of going back. Think this through. Good luck.
It's unlikely that they will keep putting him on probation be prepared for him to go to jail and serve his sentence.
First you should learn how to type words out and don't be so lazy!! VOP they'll probably make him serve his probation time which is 1-1/2 years plus any new time that he'll get sentenced with. But call an attorney or public defender.
I don't know what will happen. I know what should happen. They should make him water ski around the world nonstop. As for you. They should give you a tube job so you will not bring any more children into this world under the kind of conditions you live. I would bet a dollar to a donut that you are on welfare.
Only the Judge and court knows for sure right now. We sure do not.

A relative ha died. when he was alive he signed his house over to an equity company. the house is a big mess
Answer:
And?...
Further details would greatly assist with an answer..
Really? You dont say.
Well im right-you didnt say. We dont know what you are talking about.
Really Sorry to hear one of your relatives has died...
The Executors of his Will should seek legal advise ASAP.
Do you mean the house is a mess or that the paperwork for it is a mess and that you dont know who owns it ?
If it is the latter, then the executor should put the house on the market and the Equity company will have a contract (there should be a copy in your relatives possession) which will state as to how much they are entitled to from the sale of the house. It could be as much as 50% but it will depend on the contract that your relative took out with them.
The executor should get in touch with them straight away so that you know where you stand.
A relative "borrows" from me, and breaks the item upon return, is there any legal action I can do?
So in August 2006, I went on a cruise to Alaska. My aunt is watching over my house for me. While I am gone, my cousin comes over, and takes two of my video game controllers home with him, and doesn't tell me. When I ask him if those are mine, he tells me that he bought some too, so I believe him. Then, in April 2007, I get suspicious, and ask him if they are really his. He then confesses and says those controllers are actually mine. So upon return, I plug them into my video game system, only to find out they are broken. I'm 16 years old, is there any legal action I can do to get compensation?
Answer:
Unfortunately these things happen. My little cousin once ruined my collection of Ty's. But it is family. The controllers are not worth as much money as it would cost to take legal action. Plus It would not be advisable to because it would put hardship between the families. I would just talk to your mom and dad. life is to short to fight over the small things. Even though they seem really big to you now, it is not worth loosing family over.
Kick their butts, and enjoy it.
Small claims court if anything, but the judge would probably laugh in your face. sorry.
No but I would 'discuss' this problem with him, WHILE my aunt was in the room. I don't know what she'd do, but if it were my son...I'd make him replace them.
you want to take legal action against a child who is a member of your family for taking some game controllers? thats just wrong. he shouldnt have taken them you and his aunt should talk to him about taking things that dont belong to him but legal action seems a little bit harsh dont you think?
Forget legal action. Talk to your cousin and your aunt and try to work it out amiably.
You and your parent (you may be too young to pursue legal action) can take your cousin to small claims court for the cost of the damaged item(s). You don't need a lawyer, just proof of how much the controllers cost you and that your cousin had them in his possession. Good luck.
But by the way, if you did take your cousin to court over (how much did the controllers cost you? one hundred bucks?) property damage, you're going to create a serious rift in your family. That's just how it works sometimes. Your best bet would be to seek compensation through your parent and your aunt. Go to your parent, explain the situation, and wait to see if your aunt is willing to pay you back for the damaged/stolen items. If your Mom or Dad refuses, go to your aunt directly.
You can take him to small claims court to get compensation. But dont you think that family is worth more than a few bucks. Can you go to your uncle and explain what happened and have them get your coousin to pay. There has to be options other than taking family to couort and getting strangers involved in family business. Hell if I took a family memebr to court I would need the money I won for medical care.
let's see ,first was Aug ? and then you bring it back 8 mths later ,you must have a very boring life ?
you telling me you didn't plug the game for 8 mths ,because you where missing two controller's ?
you 16 yrs old ,so legally nope you cant do anything ,but for God sake it's video game controls ,get you new ones and keep your cousin .
life to short for pity crap like that .
I would have a talk with your Aunt, and ask her if she knows that your cousin took, your contollers, and broke them, and if she is aware of this, then tell her you want a replacement. Basically, you did not give permission to use the controllers, and he stole them, then tried to lie to you, but then confessed. If he has new controllers,take, his, or their should be some kind of compensation.
Yes you sue for what is called conversion. This is when the item is taken or made no longer useable by the rightful owner. In this case the defendant would owe the market value of the item. As a 16 year old you would have to have a parent or gaurdian sue for you....but in this case we are taking about maybe 50 to 70 dollars worth of property...the filing fees would be about that amount...probably not worth it...especially if you lose.
If he is really your cousin you should make him buy you new ones. If he doesn't then tell your aunt because it was her responsibility anyway to keep everything safe in your home. She should come up with a solution for this situation. If your cousin was my kid I will make him work his *** off to pay for what he has broken. That's the way it should be. You break it you replace it.
Taking without permission with intent to deprive the things from the true owner is theft. You could have him arrested. You could also sue. The fact that he's a relative doesn't make any difference, except that it makes it more likely that a jury would believe he had your tacit approval than if he were a stranger.
As a practical matter, there's nothing. It happened too long ago. Even if the stataute of limitations hasn't run, the police and DA probably wouldn't prosecute anyway because he's a kid, he's your cousin, and they're only game controllers. As for filing suit, you could take him to small claims court, pay the filing fee, and present your case. You win, your cousin pays. You lose, not only are stuck with broken controllers, but you'll also be stuck paying the court filing fee. Again, since it was a few youersa ago, you might be SOL, depending on your state's laws.
IF you have any proof at all...say, a witness to his confession...take it to the police. The charge is theft. He'll likely be willing to pay for the items in order to avoid going to court and getting a first offense on his record--but if not, follow through, or he'll consider you a pushover.
Otherwise, chalk it up to gaining wisdom through experience, and learn SOMETHING from it.

A question for American Citizens interested in the Abortion Debate?
Is it ethical to limit abortions to once a lifetime?
Answer:
I would say no.
Either it's wrong or it's not. If it's not wrong, there's no reason to limit it. If it is wrong, then why the exception?
Interesting idea, though.
It's considered a medical procedure whether one agrees with it or not.
Would it be ethical to limit taking antibiotics to once a year to stop resistant disease from forming?
I don't think so. Its either a legal thing to do or it isn't. It should be up to the individual and their own beliefs to decide that though, I think.
Im not sure how I feel...but I know a girl from my home town who has had three abortions and planned parenthood said no to her last one and now she has a daughter.....
3 abortions before having a child...and only becasue she was denied another abortion! .makes you wonder what she thinks of birth control!
If abortion is bad enough to limit its use to once in a lifetime, then why wouldn't you just ban it altogether? If you don't think abortion is wrong, then why would you want to limit its use?
Whichever way you fall in the debate, this suggestion doesn't work. It's a compromise that doesn't especially satisfy either side of the issue. It also doesn't account for the arguments made by both sides.
Pro-lifers believe abortion destroys a human life with rights. Pro-choicers believe abortion is a right of the mother. So, since both sides believe they're protecting rights, it stands to reason that both sides would oppose restricting these rights in some way.
Except in the cases of rape, incest, or mortal danger to Mom? Interesting thought...
No more than it would be ethical to allow a murderer a pass on his/her first kill.
No it is not ethical. Any person should be able to do what they want with their body or what is inside of it. Freedom would be a great thing if it existed.
personally, i believe it is a personal choice, all depend on the thickness and fertility of the remaining womb. But also, i just dont understand why people wont be bothered to put on that rubber thing.
No, is it ethical to murder innocent people.
Pro-Life...it was your mothers choice too.
no, i think you shouldnt judge someone for having an abortion, because unless you've been in the situation you dont know how it feels. God didnt give you permission to judge
That would be intersting, but what about an "abortion credit"?
If my wife goes through her life and never has an abortion, but has this "abortion credit", is it transferrable? Could she pass it down to her daughter? Does the son get an "abortion credit"?
At what age does it become valid? Does a woman lose her abortion credit if her husband gets a vasectomy?
yes and no there are so many things that factor into this in gods eyes it is wrong but the women who get raped they should have this option what if she got raped more than once should she be forced ot keep the second one or well have it anyway and then put it into the system what a scary life. there are so many women that lay down w/o thinking about having a baby and when the time comes they just kill the child i don't think that is right i think you should have a reason to back this up like maybe ur husband beats you or something who wants to bring a child into that. over all women have the choice but they also need to think about what could happen b4 they do the deed. i think it would be hard to put a limit on it there are special circumstances but on the other hand maybe if there was ppl would think so i am not really sure what side of the fence i would be on i am sure that didn't help a lot but its what i think
i could see one or even two depending on the situation, but after this you should consider sterilization if you really don't want children or learn a better form of birth control!!
Each person should have a right to whatever they choose to do. After all, its not government鈥檚 money being used on this it鈥檚 the patients. We shouldn't judge anyone nor force anyone to have a child if in fact their not capable of taking care of it. The government will end up supporting the child if so (exp. Medicaid, food stamps, WIC, ect.)
I don't believe in abortion as birth control.,However, as a man, I wouldn't have to put myself through an abortion. Therefore,giving advice on abortion is ludicrous.
Well think of it like this. A girl was raped and her parents r severely strict. She got an abortion. It happened again in her lifetime, unfortunately, but the law restricts her from doing so. She argues that its her body and its not her fault. But, the law prohibits her from doing so. As a result she becomes depressed and suicidal. her life goes down the drain. The fact that something like that can happen should be enough to keep restrictions on a medical procedure. At times its necessary at times its not. Doesn't matter though, b/c its a choice and their bodies and their futures on the line. You can't restrict people like that, I don't think that's right even though some people don't think abortions are right. Personally, I vote for freedom to choose.
No. It is a womans right to choose. Only she can make the decision. No one can force a woman to give birth against her will. The government - and the church - need to stay out of womens wombs.
No. It is not ethical to try and dictate one's opinion as law.
If you limit abortion to once per lifetime you will cause the death of millions of loved and wanted children and end up keeping unwanted fetuses. http://www.prolifeismurder.com

A question for all pro-choicers??
Many people claim that the reason a woman is allowed to abort her baby is because it would not be able to survive on its own outside the womb. So therefore, the baby is her "propery", and she can end its life if she wishes.
However, a newborn baby cannot survive on its own, either. So should women be allowed to "abort" their newborns?
Answer:
they can now..thanks to bill clinton.....called partial birth abortion...
don't give them any ammo! they already made it legal to murder the baby if it hasn't passed thru the birth canal!
There is a difference between "surviving" and "viability". A mass of embryonic cells is not viable outside the womb by any definition. A newborn is viable outside the womb and can be cared for by anyone, not necessarily the birth mother.
Dude, join a bowling league or something! You've got too much time on your hands to keep posting the same questions over and over.
A fetus can NOT survive out side the womb until at least 20+ weeks... A fetus can not be transferred from one uterus to another... do we agree on that??
A new born child on the other hand.. has every expectation of survival... as long as it is cared for by a competent person.. this person doesn't have to be the birth mother nor father.. just a loving and caring person.. that know's how to love.. feed and care for a child... Even an agency is better than a woman that didn't want the child...
Yes I am pro choice...however I have 3 sons... abortion was never a question for me... I was raised to be respectful of myself.. and to have children at a time when it was right for not only me but the prospective father.. NOT every girl in this world is taught that... Nor should a girl or woman who is raped be forced to carry a child that she will hate.. it does in my opinion make a difference how happy and how much a child is wanted in the womb..
The metaphor doesn't quite work.
k idk about others but i never reffered to a fetus as 'property' however i do believe it should be legal to abort the fetus as long as it's before the third trimester. see ur holding all 'pro choicers' to the same standard. some of us aren't actually pro choice, but rather pro last resort (meaning u support legal abortions in cases of rape, or cases where the mother and/or fetus could be harmed during pregnancy/birth, etc). and i believe abortion should always be legal in the first trimester. however i dont believe third trimester abortions should be legal simply because a person has no reason to wait that long before getting an abortion. if their case is so bad that they need an abortion they should have gotten one b4 the third trimester.
anyways, i dont believe calling these women killers and sinners and wh*res is going to help anything either!
and the big reason ppl believe abortions should be legal is not because the fetus is 'property' that arguement has no credibility whatsoever, the big reason pro choicers say abortions should be legal is because A FETUS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A PERSON, IT HAS NO LEGAL STANDING OR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS THEREFORE IT IS NOT MURDER. and of ur statement about women aborting newborn babies is crap because newborn babies have already taken their first breath outside of the womb and therefore constitute a person, and have constitutional rights and a legal standing. so ya, that's my lil schpeal on abortion.
A newborn can survive without being attached to another human being.
The issue is that it's NOT YOUR BODY therefore it's none of your damned business what choice a woman makes - it's not yours, not mine, not the dude at the drive thru at Burger Kings - it's strictly and solely the woman's choice.
You are dancing a fine line with essentially loaded weapons on either side of that line!
As a mother, I would NEVER do anything to harm my child....even when he came into this world almost 7 weeks early!
BUT....my husband and I had to make a decision before he was born....he was in a compromised position and so was I. The decision had to be made of what to do if MY life was in danger....after almost 48 hours straight....we decided that IF that position came about....we would choose MY life.
So don't just go about passing judgement on a situation that many women find themselves in.
However, a newborn baby cannot survive on its own, either. So should women be allowed to "abort" their newborns?
Answer:
they can now..thanks to bill clinton.....called partial birth abortion...
don't give them any ammo! they already made it legal to murder the baby if it hasn't passed thru the birth canal!
There is a difference between "surviving" and "viability". A mass of embryonic cells is not viable outside the womb by any definition. A newborn is viable outside the womb and can be cared for by anyone, not necessarily the birth mother.
Dude, join a bowling league or something! You've got too much time on your hands to keep posting the same questions over and over.
A fetus can NOT survive out side the womb until at least 20+ weeks... A fetus can not be transferred from one uterus to another... do we agree on that??
A new born child on the other hand.. has every expectation of survival... as long as it is cared for by a competent person.. this person doesn't have to be the birth mother nor father.. just a loving and caring person.. that know's how to love.. feed and care for a child... Even an agency is better than a woman that didn't want the child...
