On House wives of New Jersey Jacqueline is dealing with it. Her son seemed fine until he was 2 almost 3. Up until then he always said "I love you Mommy".Now he doesn't talk at all.It's very sad.


That must have been before my time :lol: but seriously, I understand that frustration. Even in todays times. I lost friends over it in the beginning because they just withdrew from me, didn't know what to say, couldn't understand the whole thing. Even today I have very few friends because they just don't get how my life works with two special needs kids. There have been times several years ago that I would have to leave a store because he was having a meltdown. I've actually had people say "if that were my kid....." I finally got over the fact that no one but my family understood and I couldn't count on the people that were once my friends.
I'm not sure if any studies have been done on aspartame. A lot of focus has been put on baby shots. Some say it's a genetic predisposition. And as far as the increase in numbers of children with autism, that is basically because it is understood more by doctors and more children are being recognized since not all cases fall into the "Rainman" catergory. I do know that at some point Alex changed. He developed normally and on time up until he hit 2 1/2, then it was like a whole different child and it took another almost three years to get a diagnosis.

Sorry if that's tmi, didn't mean to get ot.

I know. Me too..I have a bad habit of pushing the button for a couple of seconds before drawing.I shut mine down a lot.I have to quit pushing the button so long before I actually start to vape.

I meant that mine stops firing after so many seconds. I haven't counted it yet. But it's annoying.

I get it. Fortunately Alex was always vocal, but unintelligible. He took speech for several years and still has a speech impediment. His personality changed. He was always laughing, smiling, hugging, kissing, very very happy. No abnormal behaviors at all. Then all of a sudden he started screaming when you turned on the vacuum and became inconsolable if there was too much noise or you tried to pick him up. He didn't want to be touched, only on his terms. He quit making developmental progress. You know how parents celebrate all those little things like when their child learns to tie their shoes or ride a bike? We celebrated him tying his shoes when he was in 5th grade, and as hard as we tried he could never learn to ride a bike. He's had swim lessons four different times and can still only dog paddle. A lot of that is low muscle tone and lack of coordination that goes with the disorder. So, we celebrate the small things. Even with Morgan, although her developmental delays are not as severe as his, you celebrate the small things and know that as long as you try to teach them that is what counts. If they don't accomplish something you try to teach them, you can never say you didn't try. If you don't try at all, then you'll never know if it was attainable. Never sell them short. Give them every opportunity to learn and they will amaze you!!

I'm kinda bothered by the auto shut off part. What if I want a longer drag? bah.
Holy cow! I just tried to drag longer than the auto shut off. :blink: Maybe if I were doing 2 or 3 drags, it might cut out.

I keep shutting mine off. I'll take a puff, and another and another, and POOF! Too close together and it thinks you're turning it off! :lol:

I ordered it on the 27th and received it on the 7th. 10 days maybe?
Ordered mine on the 20th, received on the 6th, so about 17 days. But they emailed and said there was a problem with what the vendor shipped them and it would be delayed. I'm fine with waiting for things if vendors communicate! :)

Tiff, I don't mind if you rant! :) Actually, I'm learning a lot, since I don't know of anyone affected by it.

I didn't realize my MVP was doing it for that reason. I noticed it but just didn't think about it..

And thank you Bamrz. I'm glad you are learning from what I'm saying. The more people that understand then the more acceptance there will be.

This has to be the only business where people think you are a big manufacturing firm with no lives.I just don't understand why anyone would think that a bottle of juice is the pull off a shelf kind of thing.I do pull off the shelf in my business but even I couldn't do same day shipping.
When working with something as dangerous as Nicotine I want you to be methodical in what you ship to me. I for one am so grateful knowing you took extra care when working with it.
