The Leaders in Pet Anxiety and Stress Solutions Outfit Non-Profit with ThunderShirts


Committed to creating effective, easy-to-use pet anxiety and stress solutions for pet parents, as well as supporting animal shelters and rescue groups nationwide, ThunderWorks Founder Phil Blizzard recently announced a significant donation to the Idaho-based non-profit, Pawsitive Works.

Theyll have enough ThunderShirts on-site to help train dogs within their program for an entire year, Blizzard said. Weve always supported shelters across the country, either financially or through product donations. We were drawn to this specific cause because of the unique link between the at-risk dogs, and the at-risk youth.

At Pawsitive Works, hard to adopt shelter dogs are partnered with at-risk youth for a five-week behavior modification program. Together, the pair maneuvers through and gains understanding of the issues facing them in life while developing better ways to cope and address challenges. The program emphasizes teaching youth empathy, self-confidence, patience, communication and mindfulness, which are all needed assets to help the youth stay out of trouble as well as becoming more productive members of society. The program is also committed to teaching dogs positive behaviors, common commands such as sit, down and stay.

Since 2009, the results from our program have been extremely successful, said Pawsitive Works Executive Director Karen Schumacher. In addition to supporting the adoption of these dogs, weve found that more than 98% of youth stay out of trouble during our program as well. Were truly shaping both ends of the leash!

Any family who wishes to adopt a dog through this program is asked that no matter what stage the dog is in during the program, that he be able to finish with his at-risk youth partner.

Its such an accomplishment for this kids to turn over a dog they worked closely with, and helped find a home, Schumacher said. Were very grateful to ThunderShirt for their generous donation, and know that these ThunderShirts will really help our dogs, who are commonly anxiety-ridden and overactive, find their forever home.

With its patent-protected design, the ThunderShirts gentle, constant pressure has a dramatic calming effect that has already helped tens of thousands of dogs with anxiety problems. The product is also used and recommended by vets and trainers worldwide. Anxiety experts believe that pressure has a calming effect on the nervous system and may release calming hormones like endorphins or oxytocins.

With the ThunderShirt, anyone can effectively, naturally and easily treat anxious dogs, said Blizzard. We know that many negative behaviors such as uncontrollable barking, chewing, severe panting and more are all symptoms of anxiety, and its often those behaviors keeping that dog from getting adopted.

The company has donated thousands of ThunderShirts to shelters nationwide since 2009, and in fact last year the product was recognized with the first-ever Petfinder Seal of Approval, which extends the trust and authority of the Petfinder name to products, services, brands and initiatives that have met specific pet-friendly criteria.

The ThunderShirt for Dogs is available in sizes XXS to XXL, and is sold in Heather Grey, Blue Polo and Pink Polo. Additionally, the company offers the ThunderShirt for Cats in sizes S, M and L. Suggested retail starts at $39.95. Both products can be personalized with custom embroidery for an additional charge.

How to minimize the financial impact of divorce

Most people that end up getting a divorce see signs that their marriages may be in trouble. Minor disagreements may start turning into major arguments. The couple may be spending less time together. Perhaps one of the spouses may have recently lost a job, leading to financial problems that place more strain upon an already troubled marriage.

Some marriages are able to withstand these challenges, and the spouses emerge from these troubled times even more committed to one another. For those unable to make a relationship work, they may feel that a divorce will be the only way to resolve the difficulties they are having with their spouse.

When a couple is going through the divorce process, they may not have any idea about the extent of the changes that they will soon be experiencing. As part of the divorce, if the couple had children, they will need to determine a child custody agreement that allows each parent to continue to be a major part of the child's life. This can be extremely difficult for both parties to agree to, and may even require the court to make a determination that is in the child's best interests.

The other major area that will need to be addressed concerns the division of property that the couple has accumulated during the marriage. In some divorces, there will often be disputes over how the property should be divided.

An individual considering filing for divorce should be sure to take extremely accurate and detailed records of finances prior to filing. Once one spouse files, the other may try to hide or conceal assets to remove the property from the divorce proceeding. If the couple owns a business or other high-value investments, it will be crucial to have these assets examined by financial professionals to get an accurate determination of what they are worth.

The division of property can result in spouses seeing savings and retirement accounts severely reduced, but the couple may have other financial concerns that will need to be addressed. In many marriages, both spouses have jobs that allow them to contribute to the family's budget. After divorce, these individuals will only have one income to work with, which can cause significant financial hardships if the individuals do not properly plan for the future.

If you are considering a divorce, take the time to speak to a family law attorney in your area to understand how best to proceed. While no one wants to go through a divorce, going through the process without planning could make things much more challenging for you and your family.

Greensations Launches First Hot Pepper Stop Itch Spray For Dogs and Cats


Greensations has launched the worlds first hot pepper anti-itch spray for dogs and cats under their new ThermaPet brand. Hot pepper anti-itch spray is nothing new for Greensations, a company that built several successful OTC brands for humans. Their most popular products, ThermaSkin and ThermaScalp are sold in thousands of stores, but ThermaPet is a whole new animal for GSC Products, parent company of Greensations.

ThermaPet Stop Itch Spray is designed specifically for pets with long and short fur. Unlike other anti-itch pet products, ThermaPet does not use steroids, chemicals or preservatives that can damage skin in cats and dogs. According to the manufacturer, their product works faster and lasts longer than mainstream brands.

Over the years, hundreds of customers have said our pepper itch sprays worked for their pets. So we decided to take it a step further and create an anti-itch spray specifically for dogs and cats. ThermaPet stops itching in less than 2 minutes for most pets and it promotes healing, says Wayne Perry, CEO of GSC Products, LLC.

In a one month open label study using 40 volunteers including 26 dogs and 14 cats, ThermaPet stopped itching and scratching by 95 percent based on customer surveys provided by the pet owners. No adverse reactions were recorded and 80% got noticeable relief after the first application, according to pet owners.

We offered free product to the first forty customers with either a cat or dog who previously commented on using our anti-itch products on their pets. Within 48 hours, we had all forty participants in place. Every pet owner filled out a survey after each week of use and the results were amazing. In the first week, eight out of ten pets completely stopped itching. Over the next three weeks, 38 of the forty pets were essentially cured according to their owners, adds Perry.

Along with Capsaicin, the active component of hot peppers, ThermaPet uses horseradish to reduce inflammation and Black Walnut to fight fungal infections. In addition, this proprietary formulation contains other botanicals to boost immunity and reduce allergic reactions including: Goldenseal, Nettle, Jewel Weed, Vitamin C and Sea Salt.

ThermaPet is available online and in stores with an MSRP of $13.99. Samples are available for media and Veterinarian medical professionals upon request. Contact GSC Products directly for media inquiries, wholesale inquiries and customer service questions.

About GSC Products and Greensations: Greensations natural health and beauty brands have been featured by Dr. Oz, The Doctors, Good Housekeeping, New York Times and more. Greensations features natural remedies for acne, anti-aging, beauty and skin care at Greensations.com.

It's Bedbug Awareness Month


Well, the month of September is upon us and with that comes a month of education, education, and some more education. At my company, Gotcha Bed Bug Inspectors, we always say, "education is the key to staying bedbug free!" So, we thought we would explore some of the myths and misconceptions about those little blood sucking friends we're celebrating during the 30 days of September.

In our travels visiting clients from hotel owners, business travelers and school administration, all the way to home owners, we have come across some very interesting methods our clients have found on the World Wide Web to prevent and get rid of bedbugs. These are actual stories and not made up. Stay with us, you just might learn something...

Myth: I put my shoes in the freezer so that should kill all the bedbugs. Right?

Actually, this is not true at all; we wish it was that easy. Bedbugs are a special kind of pest. You must know how to treat them in order to eradicate them. Your common home freezer does not reach the required temperature to act as a killing agent for bedbugs.

Myth: I threw my bed out so I have nothing to worry about. Right?

Wrong! Bedbugs do love beds, but they don't only infest beds. Bedbugs are not picky pests. Where we are, they want to be. In fact, if you move a bed throughout your home, you may infest other areas of the home where bedbugs might not be living. This is also true for apartment buildings. Bedbugs attach on to things -- you don't want to drop a bedbug in your haste to remove a bed. It could find a new home just by latching on to someone who walks through your building's hallway.

Myth: I am very clean so I have nothing to worry about. Right?

Absolutely wrong! Bedbugs will infest anywhere from a five-star hotel to the messiest of apartments. The truth is, it is much harder to eradicate bedbugs from a home or dwelling where there is clutter, however, it doesn't mean bedbugs won't infest your clean home, too. That is why it's so important to ask your pest control company about the necessary steps to properly prepare your home for treatment.

Myth: I hung all of my stuff outside. How long do I leave my clothing out in the sun for the bedbugs to be killed?

Unfortunately, the sun won't do much but give your bedbugs a tan. In all honesty, the best method is to wash all of your clothing as per the label. Using a washer with detergent and dryer on a high heat setting is a tried and true method to eradicate bedbugs and eggs from clothing.

Myth: I don't have any bites, so I can't have bedbugs. Right?

Wrong. It is not uncommon for two people to be sleeping in the same bed and both be bitten, but everyone reacts differently to bed bug bites. Not everyone is going to show a bite in the area they have been bitten. Tricky, yes, but definitely not true.

Myth: I don't have to wash all of my clothing if my home has bedbugs. Right?

This is a great question and one I'm frequently asked. To play it safe, most companies suggest that you wash everything you can. It's always better to be safe than sorry. The best course of action, though, is to save time and money and have a bedbug dog inspect your home and determine exactly where the bedbugs are hiding. This way you'll be able to pinpoint their exact location and take the necessary steps to remove them.

Myth: The country I just came from doesn't have bedbugs. Right?

The truth is wherever we go, they go. There are some countries that have a higher bedbug population than others, but with frequent imports and exports of goods and as travel continues to increase, bedbugs have a good chance of being in just about every country. If you are traveling, make sure you use a bedbug spray to create a barrier around your luggage and make sure you don't bring anything home with you, regardless of where you go.

Myth: Bedbugs have babies daily. How will you ever stop them?

Each adult female produces about one egg per day; a common housefly lays 500 eggs over three to four days. Bedbug eggs take 10 days to hatch and another five to six weeks for the offspring to develop into an adult.

Myth: Bedbugs transmit diseases. Right?

Bedbugs definitely contribute to anxiety and stress, but there have been no reported cases of bedbugs transmitting disease to humans.

Myth: I think I have a bedbug in my hair.

Bedbugs don't like heat, so they are unlikely to be living in your hair or on your skin. They are more likely to travel in luggage, backpacks, and pocketbooks.

These are just the top 10 myths we have come across in our field, there are many more questions as a result of misinformation from websites. Make sure you check the validity of a site before following its suggestions. The best piece of advice I can offer is to find a pest control professional that you feel comfortable with and they should be able to answer any and all questions you might have. Like we always say, questions are free and it never hurts to ask!

Always remember to stay educated. Research bedbug sprays and products you are using within your home. I recommend Pronto Plus Bedbug Spray. It creates a barrier on the inside and outside of your luggage, backpacks, and pocketbooks and kills any bedbugs or eggs on contact.

Everybody Wins! USA Begins New Chapter as Read to a Child

Everybody Wins! USA begins a new chapter today as Read to a Child, a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing childrens success in life by inspiring adults to read to them. The organizations new identity more effectively communicates its mission and encompasses an expanded vision for the future.

The vision of Read to a Child is that one day all children will be read to regularly by a caring adult improving their chances to become healthy, productive members of society.

Reading aloud is a proven means of increasing childrens literacy skills and, therefore, empowering them for future success, said Board Chair Matthew Broder. Our organization truly inspires a better future and we are extremely excited to grow and expand opportunities for children as Read to a Child.

In addition to the name change, a number of previously independent Everybody Wins! offices have joined Read to a Child to create a centralized nonprofit entity. Read to a Child currently operates in Arizona, Boston, Connecticut, Detroit, Los Angeles, and South Florida.

Chief Executive Officer Olivia Mathews noted, Collectively, the new Read to a Child structure enables us to use every dollar in the most efficient way possible and ensure consistent high-quality programming. As this next phase begins, we look forward to dramatically increasing the number of children we reach.

The organization receives support from more than 100 corporate sponsors, such as Pitney Bowes, Equity Office Properties and New York Life. In the 2011-2012 school year, the organization mobilized over 1,400 volunteers to deliver 35,000 hours of one-on-one reading time to more than 1,100 children.

The organization launched a new website that incorporates the Read to a Child name. The site offers information about the organizations programming, results and new ways to get involved.

About Read to a Child
Read to a Child (formerly Everybody Wins! USA) inspires caring adults to read aloud to children and to help create a better future. Research proves that the simple act of reading aloud to a child significantly impacts his or her literacy skills and, thus, his or her likelihood for success. Read to a Childs flagship lunchtime reading program partners an adult with a schoolchild for a rewarding, read aloud experience during the childs lunch break.

Association for Airline Passenger Rights Releases Pet Resource

The Association for Airline Passenger Rights ("AAPR") today released its online publication, "Passenger Guide to Pet Safe Travel." The guide, which is published as part of a strategic partnership with TripsWithPets (TWP) announced last month by AAPR, provides airline passengers with information, helpful tips and resources designed to make pet safe flying more achievable. The guide is being made available for free for all airline passengers.

The guide includes information about pet-related incidents, pet health and immunization requirements, general airline information, cabin and cargo requirements, security procedures, service animals for passengers with disabilities, and other resources.

"There is a lot to take into consideration when flying with pets, including varying airline policies, getting through security check-points, pet friendly areas at airports and legal requirements, just to name a few," said Brandon M. Macsata, Executive Director of the Association for Airline Passenger Rights. "We hope that airline passengers find our new travel guide useful when planning trips with their furry friend! It is a must-have resource considering all of the little things that go into pet safe travel."

According to the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), airlines reported five incidents involving the loss, death, or injury of pets while traveling by air in December 2012, which is last reported data. The incidents involved one pet death and four pet injuries. For all of last year, carriers reported 30 pet deaths, 27 pet injuries, and one lost pet. In 2011, carriers reported 35 pet deaths, nine pet injuries, and two lost pets. [1]

Author of Celibacy's Child, Lisa B. Overton to Appear on AZTV's Morning Scramble Show Tuesday

Lisa B. Overton is opening up and telling the world about her life as the child of a forbidden love affair. This moving story details her experience growing up as the child of a Roman Catholic priest and an ex-nun who entered into a 30+ year clandestine love affair.

She tells the poignant story of her childhood and how she survived loneliness, shame and hypocrisy in her parents' painful and secretive shadow and how she eventually forgave them both. She never knew who her father was until finally, on her mother's death bed Lisa asked, "Was Uncle my father?" It tells the tale of a forbidden love and the child who was

Celibacy is a spiritual requisite for Priests of the Catholic religion. The law of celibacy is not considered to be a doctrine, but rather a discipline to abstain from all sexual intercourse and marriage. It is believed to be purifying and to strengthen their connection with faith.

The celibacy laws of the church were very clear, stating that any priest who strayed from the strict rules would be banned from priesthood, which is why he never told her his true identity. He simply was known as "Uncle."

"I wrote this book, not with malice towards the Catholic church, but with the hope that one day Rome will remove celibacy from it's doctrine. The stigma of shame that infected my mother's life as well as my own, came at a horrific price for both of us."

Lisa is going on AZTV's Morning Scramble show with Pat McMahon on Tuesday, April 23, 2013, airing at 8:00am to discuss her new book. Celibacy's Child is available on amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Celibacys-Child-ebook/dp/B00B90OWCM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1366421961&sr=8-1&keywords=celibacys+child and has a Facebook page where you can receive updates of events taking place https://www.facebook.com/pages/Celibacys-Child

Waterproof Kindle Paperwhite Finally Makes Reading in the Bath a Reality

The world used to be a stressful place where books and water were enemies and Jacuzzis were the battlefield. Thankfully, a peace accord has been struck and taking your favorite novel to a candlelit bath can finally live up to the utopian dream with the new Waterproof Kindle Paperwhite by San Diego based company Waterfi.

The Kindle Paperwhite is the latest e-reader released by Amazon in the popular Kindle line. The Paperwhite is unique from previous iterations of the Kindle as it is equipped with an adjustable front-lit screen. Amazon spent over 3 years developing the technology for the Paperwhite screen to provide an even distribution of light over the entire reading surface. The Kindle Paperwhite includes 2GB of storage, which is space enough to hold up to 1,100 average length books. Amazon has taken the lead in the e-reader world by creating a library of millions of books available for the Kindle, including 180,000 books that are Kindle exclusive titles.

Kindle-readers have enjoyed the ease of portability provided by the Kindle, but as with most electronics, have shied away from confidently taking the Kindle along to places where it could experience possible moisture damage. Readers would have to forgo their Kindle in places such as the beach, the pool, the kitchen, the bathing room, and would even have to leave the Kindle at home on rainy days and carefully limit use by spill-prone children. Waterfi's waterproofing saves the Kindle Paperwhite in all of these situations and makes it possible to clean with soap and water, should it be used during a messy lunch or by children of any age.

Waterfi has treated the Kindle Paperwhite with what is described as a patent pending waterproofing technique developed over the last 4 years by Waterfi President Royce Nicholas. He describes the process as "A Dual Layer of protection and insulation from water, sweat, sand, corrosion, and other environmental threats." The first layer is a unique rubbery compound on the inside of the device, filling every crack and crevice to surround the electrical innards in a watertight cushion. The second layer is then applied for added corrosion-proofing and to strengthen the electrical insulation up to 40,000 volts.

Waterfi was founded in 2010 to free popular gadgets from liquid-related constraints and allow them to be included in everyday active lives. The company's stated mission: to create waterproof electronics that enable active people to improve sport performance and make exercising more enjoyable.

Waterfi began when founder Royce Nicholas created a unique waterproofing solution for the Apple iPod Shuffle. Royce showed the Waterproof iPod to a select group of friends and began to offer it online at various e-commerce sites. The feedback he received for that initial waterproof iPod Shufle was extremely positive and he soon began to expand that process to other gadgets. The ability to combine beloved electronic devices with water activities has been described by some as "addictive and compelling." As of now, Waterfi is still the only company in the world offering a complete waterproof solution for a variety of electronics, including the Apple iPod Nano, Nike+ FuelBand, and now the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite.

Foresters UK Teams Up with Operation Shoebox UK to Support Serving Soldiers

Foresters, the international financial services organisation, are proud to announce that they have partnered up with Operation Shoebox UK - an innovative mission which supports serving soldiers by sending them shoeboxes of necessities and goodies.

The idea of Operation Shoebox UK is simple - yet makes such a huge difference to the troops in Afghanistan - providing them with a shoebox full of much needed basics (such as toothbrushes, toothpaste and foot powder) to goodies (such as magazines, pens, and hot chocolate).

Most importantly, it reminds them that they are not forgotten.

Alexis Bovington, Membership Development Manager at Foresters, says: "As part of the partnership, we are asking our volunteer members to host their own events to create these boxes.

"Our volunteers will be asked to pack the boxes, and decorate them, and also write a personal message to include to the soldiers. If they want, volunteers can include their address for the soldiers to write back to them".

Two events are already planned for June in Birmingham and Huddersfield, with more in the pipeline, supported by volunteers both from Foresters and Operation Shoebox UK.

Alexis adds: "These events are open for anyone to attend and we encourage anyone who can help - whether in time or by donating items - to get in touch.

"We are very excited about this partnership. It will create fun events for our members, their families and their communities, of all ages and abilities, to volunteer and get involved. It is an opportunity for adults and children to give something back, as well as remind serving soldiers that they have not been forgotten".

Childrens Obesity Fund Sponsors Hands for Hopes HopeWalk, 5k Walk and Kids Healthy Activity Fair

The Childrens Obesity Fund and its co-founders Julian Omidi and Michael Omidi, M.D. announce their sponsorship of the Hands for Hope 13th Annual HopeWalk and Activities Fair on Saturday, June 8, 2013 in Hollywood Park.

Hands for Hope offers the youth of North Hollywood and its surrounding regions with many valuable programs for their intellectual, artistic, physical and professional development, and we are proud to sponsor this fantastic event, says Childrens Obesity Fund co-founder Dr. Michael Omidi. Local events like the walk and the annual activities fair go a long way to inform young people of the healthy resources right there in their own communities, and we anticipate a fun and successful day for everyone.

The 5K HopeWalk began in 2001 as a way to encourage young people to embrace healthy lifestyles. The walk has been sponsored by local businesses and organizations, as well as major corporations including Wells Fargo, Disney, Whole Foods, Dole and Adidas. The Activities Fair was added in 2006 to give children and their parents the opportunity to participate in sports and fitness activities, receive nutritional and health guidance and enjoy healthy food tastings.

The day begins with registration at 8 am, and proceeds with a brisk walk from Magnolia and Tujunga Avenues to North Hollywood Park. Participants can then enjoy the events offered as part of the Activities Fair and Taste of Healthy NoHo, where local food venders give samples of their healthy culinary wares. More details about the HopeWalk and Kids Healthy Activity Fair are available at: hands4hope.org/hopewalk

Hands for Hope (hands4hope.org) offers programs for young people and single parents designed to help them become successful, happy and healthy members of society. These programs include academic workshops, drivers safety courses, career guidance and preparation, artistic/creative enrichment classes and health and nutrition courses. Single parents can receive guidance with child care, finding employment, continuing education, purchasing a home and financial planning.

Co-founded by Julian Omidi and Michael Omidi, M.D., the Childrens Obesity Fund (http://www.childrensobesityfund.org) hopes to help reverse the trend of rising obesity rates in America. The goal of the non-profit charity is to help people fully understand the obesity issue and its dire impacts on individuals and society as a whole -- and to use that knowledge to encourage children to grow up strong and healthy. Childrens Obesity Fund partners with other organizations to educate and support parents, educators and others so that we can all work together to raise healthy, active, social, and happy children. While the organization does not accept donations, it does encourage direct contributions of money and talents to the associations featured on our website.

Co-parenting presents unique challenges for parents

One of the biggest challenges during divorce is determining child custody. In Georgia, judges typically encourage a custody plan that is in the best interests of the children and grants both parents visitation time.

Judges also grant either sole custody or joint custody. If sole custody is granted, the non-custodial parent retains visitation rights but is not allowed to make significant legal decisions concerning items such as health care, religious upbringing or education. With joint custody, both parents share in the decision-making process regarding these critical decisions.

Be consistent when making decisions, but also stay flexible

Regardless of what type of custody is granted, it is best for both parents to remain actively involved in their children's lives. This is referred to as "co-parenting" and has numerous positive benefits for children.

Although co-parenting styles differ based on family needs, divorce and parenting coaches provide some basic guidelines that can help ensure a smooth transition to co-parenting and help minimize the negative effect of divorce on children.

It is important to allow children the ability to spend as much time with each parent as they desire. Georgia law allows children over the age of 14 to choose which parent they want to live with, and children are likely to respond positively to parents who respect their living preference.

Additionally, remember that parenting was a team effort in the past, and this should not change because of a divorce. Try to respond to problems that arise in the same fashion as before the divorce. Children adjust better if parents continue to respond to situations in a consistent manner.

However, it is also important to stay flexible with decisions and realize that because divorce involves adjusting to a new situation, compromise may sometimes be necessary. Remaining open to creative solutions and expressing a willingness to "give in" to the other parent when necessary sets a great example for children, who often model their parents' behavior as adults.

Both parents should remain included in significant events

Divorce can be emotionally traumatizing for even the most mature and stable adults, so it is also extremely important for co-parents to keep arguing to a minimum around children.

It is expected that this may initially be difficult. Nonetheless, children will gain long-term benefits from witnessing their parents handle negative emotions in a mature and responsible manner.

One of the best ways to show this maturity is including the other parent in important events in children's lives, such as birthdays, graduations or sporting events. Although decisions like this may seem to have only a minor effect on children, they produce significant long-term benefits.

Finally, one of the biggest mistakes co-parents can make is forcing children to relay messages back and forth. Children commonly misinterpret messages, both intentionally and unintentionally. This disrupts the overall communication process for everyone and is likely to lead to unnecessary conflicts.

Divorcing couples struggling with co-parenting issues should consult an experienced family law attorney. The attorney can help negotiate a fair custody arrangement and visitation schedule and help ensure a smooth co-parenting process.

Custody and Traveling with Your Child

Many of our Pittsburgh child custody clients have questions when a custody determination is being made as to how this agreement will affect their ability to travel with their child(ren). Often times, the parties' abilities to travel and how frequently they may travel is addressed in a Consent Order for Custody which is filed with the court. However, there are still cases addressing this specific issue where a custody order leaves questions as to what type of travel is permitted with your child(ren).

The Pennsylvania Superior Court recently addressed the issue of parents' travel in a custody case in October 2012. Mother wanted to travel to Ecuador with her daughter to visit extended family and stay there for three weeks. The Superior Court analyzed the issue of whether it was an error of law for the trial court to deny the Mother the right to travel to Ecuador when she had previously been granted sole legal custody of the Child.

This case, M.P. v. M.P., 2012 PA Super 215 (2012), addressed the issue of a Mother's travel to Ecuador with her Child in light of the fact that the Mother was previously given sole legal custody of the Child. The Mother in this case wanted to travel to Ecuador with the parties' minor child to visit the child's grandparents on their farm, and the child's aunt. Father opposed this travel, claiming concern for "different diseases" in Ecuador and the Child's health and well-being, specifically if the Child became sick and her current health insurance was not accepted. The trial court held that Mother was prohibited from traveling to Ecuador with the Child, after which Mother filed an appeal to the Superior Court.

The Superior Court looked more in depth at what exactly "legal custody" meant and how it applied to this situation, as Mother here had sole legal custody of Child when the trial court decided she could not travel to Ecuador. The Court stated that "[w]hen one parent has sole legal custody, that parent has final authority to make decisions, regardless of whether the other parent agrees or disagrees." The Superior Court ultimately determined that the trial court had abused its discretion in prohibiting Mother to travel with the child, given the fact that she had sole legal custody. The trial court had allowed Father to counter Mother's decision to travel with their child, which the Superior Court decided "in essence gave him the control, i.e., the power that he would have if he had shared legal custody."

Furthermore, the Superior Court found it significant that the trial court's decision was made in light of the fact that Father had not exercised his supervised visitation time for eighteen months, and during this time, had no input into any decisions made by Mother on the child's behalf and did not see the Child for this time period. The Superior Court stated that these facts, coupled with the parties' previous agreement on Mother's sole legal custody, emphasized the fact that Father "believe[d] Mother ha[d] made proper decisions regarding the child's best interests" in the past.

Additionally, the trial court justified its prohibition of Mother's travel by stating that although Ecuador is a signatory to the Hague Convention, Ecuador did not comply with the Hague Convention in recent years, which it concluded "was not in the best interest of the Child to visit a country which may result in her being separated from her natural father for a long period of time." However, this was not developed from testimony in the case, but rather the trial court gained this information through its own internet search taking place after the initial hearing. Mother was not advised of this information before filing her appeal to the Superior Court. Therefore, the appellate court did not find this information significant and did not rely upon this when reversing the lower court's decision.

The Superior Court ultimately granted Mother permission to travel to Ecuador with Child without Father's consent. The Superior Court agreed with Mother's argument that the trial court's decision "contravened" the parties' agreement - and thus, if Father was able to prohibit Mother from traveling with the parties' child, this would have essentially awarded Father with shared legal custody.

The takeaway from this case regarding traveling with your child is to include specific language in your custody agreement. Make sure you address travel in your agreement so that this type of litigation does not become necessary in your case.

Texas parents must receive the child support to which they are entitled

The unfortunate state of the economy has led to national concern about spending. With the continuously increasing costs of almost everything, parents are quickly realizing the high expenses associated with raising children. Consequently, parents who are receiving child support payments are now, more than ever, depending on such income.

Who pays and how much?

In Texas, noncustodial parents are generally mandated to pay child support. Of course, the amount each parent is required to pay varies depending on his or her own financial situation. Generally, child support payments are calculated by multiplying the noncustodial parent's net income by a legally mandated percentage.

The mandated percentage by which the payments are calculated is dependent upon the number of children who the payments are intended to support. Currently, if there is only one child involved, the noncustodial parent's income will be multiplied by 20 percent; however, if four children are involved, the noncustodial parent's income will be multiplied by 35 percent. The idea is that these percentages accurately reflect the need for increased funding as a result of a larger family unit.

Additionally, when issuing a decision regarding child support payments, a judge's determination is typically guided by a strict set of guidelines. Adherence to these judicial guidelines, however, is not definite. Consequently, the presence of an experienced attorney can help ensure that a judge focuses on all relevant factors, even if such are not mentioned in the judicial guidelines.

What if payments aren't being made?

The court recognizes a parent's reliance on child support payments and therefore offers many options to ensure that a custodial parent is receiving the payments to which he or she is entitled.

The process of wage garnishment is the most common method used to ensure child support payments are being made. If the court agrees that the noncustodial parent is not fulfilling the obligation of financially providing for the children, the court can contact the parent's employer and have the child support payments directly taken from the parent's paycheck. This court-assisted intervention will leave no choice for the noncustodial parent but to make the mandated payments.

In the event that wage garnishment is not an appropriate method of securing payments, the court can take further steps. For example, the court may suspend the parent's driver's license or even revoke his or her passport until the parent is up-to-date with the mandated financial support.

Although revoking a license or passport may not generate immediate financial assistance to the custodial parent, it is certainly helpful in ensuring that the noncustodial parent understands the ramifications of not making the court-mandated payments.

Ensuring a child's financial security

Individuals in the process of child support negotiations, or who are considering making changes to their current support arrangement, would benefit from the counsel of an experienced family law attorney. An experienced attorney will not only be able to help throughout the complex process of filing for child support, but can also help make sure that a custodial parent receives the necessary funding.

Makers of Adaptive Clothing for Disabled Children with Autism and Cerebral Palsy Make Dressing Dramas a Thing of the Past

SOUTH AUSTRALIA, Australia April, 2013 Of every 1000 live births in Victoria, at least two children will be diagnosed as having cerebral palsy before the age of five, making it the most common physical disability children face. So it doesnt come as a surprise that too many Australians with disabled children are facing a major challenge each and every day changing their childrens clothes. Dressing children with autism and cerebral palsy can be extremely difficult and distressing for both parent and child.

Ann Boer is no stranger to this dilemma as her grandchild, Lacey Shea, suffers from severe cerebral palsy and severe epilepsy. Watching Lacey and her parents struggle with changing clothes inspired Ann to talk with her sisters Kay and Lois about the difficulties of dressing Lacey. Because of her background in retail, Ann knows that adaptive clothing for disabled kids is not usually available in the larger stores. In March 2012, Ann and her sisters launched Inspired by Lacey Shea to design and supply colourful and comfortable clothing for children with unique abilities.

Ann, Marketing Manager at Inspired by Lacey Shea says, Our aim is to provide easy on easy off dressing for children with permanent or temporary disability. Dressing any child or getting them to dress themselves can sometimes be a challenge for the best of parents. We have created adaptive clothing for disabled children that are practical, smart, and trendy. Our easy access clothes are suitable for permanent or temporary disabilities. With these clothes, our customers are making dressing dramas a thing of the past and turning the experience into a relaxed and fun time for everyone.

Anns offers 12 tips to making dressing dramas a thing of the past on her website www.inspiredbylaceyshea.com.au/, and she shares 6 of them here:

1. Ensure that garments are made of fabric with adequate give to allow it to go over the head easily without causing any unwanted fear or tantrums.

2. If a child has a condition affecting mobility or movement, put the garment on the affected side first.

3. Dont try to straighten a stiff arm with force or speed as this may result in increased stiffness. Try to straighten it slowly.

4. Autistic children can be just like any other child when it comes to dressing. Sometimes they just dont want to dress themselves. Perhaps a little reinforcement could help. Try adaptive clothing for disabled children with a print of something they like on it; this may be just enough to create an interest and a desire to want to put it on. This is also a great gift idea.

5. It is important not to expect too much from a child by pushing them to learn skills theyre not ready for. Be patient and allow your child to progress to the best of their ability and at their own pace.

6. Remember, self-dressing plays a big part in developing independence, responsibility, and co-operation, allowing the parent more time to focus on the next task at hand.
