Over the next couple of weeks, POSITIVE Parenting will present another book on the subject. Parenting: A child's Perspective, is a series of daily interactions between child and parent, from the viewpoint of a child, that will cause everyone to consider their own interactions with children. It is written by Dr Jaslin Salmon, who believes that children are "largely products of our handiwork, therefore, we must bear much of the responsibility for what they have become."
Here i am
Hi! I'm four years old. I have a big sister. I have a rabbit too, and crayons, and even a favourite pair of sneakers.
My big sister's older than I am. She thinks she's my boss. She hits me and gets in trouble. So, sometimes, I fake crying. I know how to get back at her - even if I'm not so very big!
But we don't fight all the time. In fact, we mostly get along pretty well. This is great, especially when our parents gang up against us. Then Dad calls us "a little gang for the protection of children from parents." We laugh because he's right.
Even when we fight, we're never angry for long. But our parents butt in anyway. Then belief in Jesus, Heaven and Hell? For the Bible says God created Heaven and Earth, Adam and Eve. Nowhere and nobody else are mentioned. So, if aliens are real, who made them, and where are they from?
POSITIVE Parenting
This is what one reader said: "I have been watching every documentary on Discovery Channel, National Geographic and the History Channel. I have seen where (United States presidents) Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford have come in contact with UFOs. I started to say to myself, "These people are highly intelligent people to be saying these things, therefore, something must be out there."
Very amazing
"What amazes me is the similarity of the stories around the world. I have a friend that lives out by Wicky Wacky beach, going towards Yallahs. One night, he saw what he thought was a Good Year blimp with portholes on the side. He thought how odd this thing was flying in the wee hours in the morning (about 2 a.m.).
"Then the thing came down real low and just moved off at the speed of light, into the sky with no sound. He said he did not like to talk about it because people make fun of him. I told him I believed him very much. Very recently, like two weeks ago, another friend of mine told me a friend of his saw strange lights in the wee hours, changing colours, and then it sped off at tremendous speed. This happened over in Montego Bay."
Creator of aliens
Another who believes God is the Creator of alien wrote: "People might see your column yesterday (last week Monday) in the Entertainment section and think it is some joke. DJ Pablo knows, to some extent the 'Truth', but only some, because no one can fully understand the entire 'Truth', as the 'Truth' is the Almighty God, the Creator.
"It was an illusion once, but now, at age 23, more in-depth research has informed and urged me to 'think outside of the box'. Aliens are higher beings of the Creator, the builders of the pyramids and the initiators of the Melchizedek Order. These are the super-intelligent beings who are purer in terms of their five high senses - We are ultimately descendants of these galactic forces."
