  
Protecting Our
Spiritual Sapling
Robert Elias Najemy
When we plant a young tree sapling, we need to protect it from the various dangers to its safe survival. One danger is the lack of water. We need to see that it's watered frequently, until it's able to establish its roots deeply into the earth, insuring for itself a
steady supply of water, regardless of external conditions.
In the same way we need to protect our newborn spiritual self from drying up because of a lack of spiritual sustenance. We can do this by keeping company with spiritually oriented persons
thru seminars & group gatherings for such purposes. We can also water our inner spiritual sapling thru daily prayer, meditation & reading of spiritual texts.
Another danger is that passing goats might eat
it. Thus we must erect a temporary fence around the sapling, preventing the goats from eating its tender leaves & shoots.
Eventually, however, when the tree has grown larger & its leaves have risen
above the level which the goats can reach, we can remove the fence without fear of there being any harm to the tree.
Now the tree isn't only no longer vulnerable, but it can offer protection to the goats from the hot
sun or the rain or snow. The goats now benefit from the tree.
In
the same way we must, in the beginning of our spiritual growth process, protect ourselves from company and contacts with people who
aren't spiritually oriented, so that we can have the opportunity to develop our inner faith and discipline. (This doesn't include, of course, our
immediate family, whom we have incarnated to serve and love. Nor does it include people who need our help. It does include superficial social and professional contacts).
By avoiding those who are negative towards spiritual values and keeping company with those who embrace those values, we gradually strengthen our spiritual sapling into a full-grown tree, which no longer needs any such protection. Now, we can have contact with all types of negative influences without loosing our center. Now, like the large tree, we can offer comfort, love and wisdom even to those who previously would have caused us to loose our spiritual center.
We need to determine whether we're saplings or trees and act accordingly.
refuse to flinch
author: adam kahn
Everybody Knows What It Means To Flinch. Example:
You pretend you’re going to slug me, and I twitch or blink. I flinched. Now let’s expand and extend that idea
in a useful way: Let’s say flinching is any form of shrinking back, pulling away or turning aside, when it’s done
to avoid discomfort or difficulty.
Have you ever noticed that you have a strong desire to put your hands in front of your body when you’re standing up and talking to several people who
are all seated? Most people do. If you succumb to your desire to put your hands in front of your body, that’s a flinch.
Or say you’re telling someone something she doesn’t want to hear. While you
talk, maybe you shift your body’s weight from one foot to another, pick at your fingernails or cross your arms. You
flinched!
If you look at someone and they then look at you and you quickly look away, you flinched.
Mumbling or speaking quietly is a form of flinching. Someone who is avoiding going to night classes because he’s afraid he might not do well is flinching.
Flinching is an attempt to protect yourself,
and it’s very natural. Everybody does it. But there is one major problem with it: Flinching makes you weak. Notice I
didn’t say it was a sign that you are weak. The act of flinching itself makes you weak.
But when you have the urge to flinch and you don’t, you gain a kind
of strength. And when you look people right in the eyes with your arms hanging by your sides where they naturally hang and
you speak truthfully without flinching, you have an unnervingly powerful personal presence.
And you don’t have to spend years getting good at this; you can do
it the very next time you talk to someone. It’s easy to do (once you decide to),
but when you do it, you will notice a temptation, a craving, a desire - almost an ache - to fidget or look away or at least put your hands in your pockets.
Refuse to flinch.
Make up your mind - as soon as you notice yourself flinching
- that you will not flinch. You’ll like the result. A fear just goes out of you. This is especially true if you consider yourself shy to any degree. Don’t flinch, and suddenly the sense of shyness becomes somewhat wispy and transparent, and you’ll start to wonder if there has ever been anything
there but a shadow.
Don’t flinch, and feel the power.
Then go on and expand this power by extending the practice into the psychological arena. When someone is “in denial,” it means they are mentally or emotionally flinching; they are looking away or shrinking back or avoiding something real - some truth, some reality - and always in order to avoid discomfort or difficulty.
But always and forever, wherever you flinch, you will be weak. And wherever you refuse to flinch,
you will be strong.
This is the “how” of courage. It’s not that during a courageous act a person doesn’t want to run away. What makes it courageous is that the person wants to run away but doesn’t. Courage is refusing to flinch.
Extend your unflinching psyche into any area where you want more personal power.
If you want to be socially strong, don’t flinch in social situations. If you want to be
emotionally strong, don’t flinch at emotional feelings or situations. You would benefit if you made this a lifetime practice, a spiritual regimen, a holy discipline.
Wherever you refuse to flinch, you will have power. This will, of course, increase your impact on people. People will admire your courage and look up to you. When this happens, don’t flinch.
Resist the temptation
to flinch.

Learn to Protect Yourself From This
Insidious Form of Abuse - by Susan Dunn, M.A.
Mobbing in the
workplace has long been studied in Europe (just look it up on a search engine).
Now authors Elliott, Davenport and Schwartz discuss this disturbing phenomenon in America in "Mobbing: Emotional Abuse in the American Workplace." It's about collective assault in the office,
on the assembly line, or in the board room.
This book is a serious call to action
to decent human beings - be they managers, CEOs, or employees and describes a syndrome coaches, counselors, trainers and therapists need to recognize.
Labeling it and
recognizing it as a syndrome with predictable patterns can be the first step at eliminating it and treating those who are the victims.
A mob is one of the most vicious subcultures of collective individuals. Described
in "The Ox Bow Incident," by Walter Van Tilburg Clark, we understand that a mob behaves in a way most individual humans wouldn't.
"Single-focused,
whipped to a frenzy by a puffed-up martinet and unfettered by normal restraints of morality," writes book reviewer Mary Bradley,
"the mob is merciless in its assault."
Did you know immediately what this term meant
as applied to the workplace? "People are aware of it, but they never had a name for it," says Elliott. "When we speak to people, they know immediately what we're talking
about.”
Study after study in psychology proves that people draw a perverse
strength from the group and will do in a group what they'd never do alone. Normal moral behavior - even decent behavior -
is competent but beautiful new receptionist who's pulled down by jealous co-workers...
Done by colleagues, subordinates or superiors, the goal of mobbing is to force someone out, using gossip, ostracism, innuendo, humiliation, ridicule, intimidation and just plain meanness.
The blame is projected on the victim, who, 'gas lighted,' becomes confused, has trouble perceiving correctly (that people could really do this) and
accepts that he or she's incompetent, to blame, etc. And no allies are forthcoming, fearing the same treatment.
Dr. Heinz Leymann, German industrial psychologist, is credited
for identifying the syndrome in Europe, Japan and Australia for nearly 20 years. He estimated that 15% of the suicides in Sweden were the result of mobbing in the workplace.
Mobbing is a serious behavioral
risk-management issue for organizations; it results in low morale, high turnover, fear, anxiety, increased absenteeism, decreased productivity and departure of key individuals. Teamwork, trust and positivity are destroyed.
"It's a widespread, vicious workplace tort [civil wrongs recognized by law as grounds for a lawsuit], says Scott H. Peters, Esq. of The Peters
Law Firm. P.C., Iowa (quoted in "Did You Hear of Mobbing?" by Elliott).
It's difficult to stop unless it's caught early on, the authors say. Part of the
problem is that it can actually be instigated by superiors and therefore condoned. The authors even cite cases where HR managers
were 'ordered' by superior 'mobbers' to support a mobbing process.
Protect Your Identity
By Nef Cortez
One’s
FICO score is a very important determinant of the ability to finance the purchase or refinance of a home. The FICO
score is determined by a formula developed by Experian & takes into account many different factors.
In today's lending environment, automated
underwriting has taken a predominant position in the processing of loan applications. It has become more cumbersome to address
issues that don't easily fit into the formula.
It's of extremely high importance, therefore,
to protect one’s credit by guarding against identity theft. Once an item is shown as a negative on one’s credit
report, it's very difficult & very time consuming to get it taken off.
Also, while an item of bad credit is being
investigated & attempts are being made to rectify the problem, the result is that the overall FICO score is reduced &
therefore reflects a greater credit risk than it should.
The protection of your identity
is one of the most important functions in maintaining your financial health. Identity theft can cause many a myriad of problems.
One major problem could be the inability to achieve the "American Dream" of homeownership.
Even if you already own a home, identity
theft could cause you thousands & thousands of dollars due to higher interest rates. In trying to refinance a home in
order to remodel, i.e., the interest rate could easily be 2% higher than the current market interest rate just because someone
else used your credit & negatively impacted it.
There are “Ten Top Tips for Identity
Theft Protection” published by the Office of Privacy Protection, California Department of Consumer Affairs, www.dca.ca.gov.
If one follows these guidelines for protection, one will be far ahead of the average person in safeguarding their identity,
although no one is fully guaranteed complete immunity.
The following is a short,
abbreviated list of these top 10 pointers:
Tip #1 Protect your social security
number. (Don’t carry your social security card with you)
Tip #2
Fight “Phishing”-don’t take the bait. (Don’t respond online to credit information requests).
Tip #3 Keep your identity from getting trashed. (Shred information when throwing away).
Tip #4 Control your personal financial information.
Tip #5 Shield your computer from viruses & spyware.
Tip #6
Click with caution! When shopping on line, check out the website before entering your credit card number or other personal
information.
Tip #7 Check your bills & bank statements right away.
Tip #8 Stop pre-approved credit offers.
Tip #9
Ask questions of anyone before giving personal information.
Tip #10 Check your credit
reports-for free.
Identity theft can be devastating to a person’s finances.
It often leaves its victims credit & financial lives in shambles, but by practicing these simple tips you can stay one
step ahead of the identity thieves & be the only one who uses your identity.

Forcing, coercing or
persuading a child to engage in any type of sexual act. This, of course, includes sexual contact.
And it also includes non-contact acts such as exhibitionism, exposure to pornography, voyeurism & communicating in a sexual
manner by phone or Internet.
Step 1. Learn the
facts. Understand the risks.
Realities - not trust - should influence your decisions regarding your child.
Step 2. Minimize
opportunity.
If you eliminate or reduce one-adult/one-child situations, you’ll
dramatically lower
the risk of sexual abuse for your child.
Step 3. Talk about it.
Children often keep abuse a secret, but barriers can be broken down by talking openly about it.
Step 4. Stay alert.
Don’t expect obvious signs when a child is being sexually abused.
Step 5. Make a plan.
Learn where to go, who to call & how to react.
Step 6. Act on suspicions.
The future well-being of a child
is at stake.
Step 7. Get involved.
Volunteer & financially support organizations that fight the tragedy
of child sexual abuse.
 Step One: Realities - not trust - should influence your decisions regarding your child.
“We live in a beautiful,
safe neighborhood. None of these children could be suffering from sexual abuse, right?”
- Experts
estimate that 1 in 4 girls & 1 in 6 boys are sexually abused before their 18th birthdays. This means that in any classroom or neighborhood full of children,
there are children who are silently bearing the burden of sexual abuse.
- 67% of all reported sexual assaults (including assaults on adults) occur to children ages 17 and under.
- 50% of
all victims of forcible sodomy, sexual assault with an object and forcible
fondling are under 12.
- Most child victims never report
the abuse.
- Sexually abused children who keep it a secret or who “tell” and aren't
believed are at far greater risk than the general population for psychological, emotional, social and physical problems often lasting
into adulthood.
- 34% of victims are abused by family members.
- A large number are abused by older or larger children.
- People
who abuse children look and act just like everyone else. In fact, they often go out of their way to appear trustworthy to gain access to children.
- Those
who sexually abuse children are drawn to settings where they can gain easy access to children,
such as sports leagues, faith centers, clubs and schools.
“It can’t
happen in my family. I could tell if someone I know is an abuser.”
Step 2 - Minimize opportunity.
If you eliminate or reduce one-adult/one-child situations, you’ll dramatically lower the risk of sexual abuse for your child.
More than 80% of sexual abuse cases happen in one-adult/one-child situations.
Reduce the risk. Protect
your child.
Understand that abusers often become friendly w/potential victims & their families, enjoying family activities, earning family trust & gaining time alone with the children.
Think carefully about the safety of any one-adult/one-child situations. Look for group situations where possible.
Set an example by personally avoiding one-adult/one-child situations w/children other than your own.
Monitor your child’s
Internet use. This is one way that offenders interact with children. They use the Internet
w/the goal of luring children into physical contact.
Reduce the risk. Insist on policy. Lobby for policies eliminating one-adult/one-child situations
in all youth-serving organizations, such as faith groups, sports teams & school clubs. These policies should ensure that
all activities can be interrupted & observed.
Question program administrators
& avoid organizations that do not do careful screening & background checks on all persons working w/children.
Insist that youth-serving
organizations train their staff to prevent, recognize & react responsibly to child sexual abuse.
Ensure that youth-serving
organizations have policies in place for dealing w/suspicious situations & reports of abuse.
What about the value of one-on-one time for children? Of course one-on-one time w/a caring adult can be healthy. It builds self esteem & makes a child feel valued. There are things you can do to protect your child when you do want him to have time alone with another adult.
This conveys that there are no entirely private times where
you aren't looking after your child.
- Make sure outings are observable,
if not by you, then by others. Ask about the specifics of the planned activities before your child leaves your care.
Talk w/your child when he returns. Notice his mood & whether
he can tell you happily how the time was.
Step 3 - Talk About It. Children often keep abuse a secret, but barriers can be broken down by talking openly about it.
“My daughter tells me everything. I know she would tell me if someone molested
her.”
Understand why children won’t “tell.”
The abuser shames the child, points out that she let it happen or tells her that
her parents will be angry.
The abuser is often manipulative & may try to confuse the child about what is right & wrong.
The abuser sometimes threatens the child or a family member. Some children who didn't initially disclose abuse
are afraid or ashamed to tell when it happens again.
Children are afraid of disappointing their parents. Children are afraid of disrupting the family. Some children are too young to understand.
Many abusers tell children
the abuse is “okay” or a “game.”
Know how children communicate.
Children who do disclose sexual abuse often tell a trusted adult other than a parent. For this reason, training for people who work w/children is especially important.
Children may tell “parts”
of what happened or pretend it happened to someone else to gauge adult reaction. Children will often “shut down”
& refuse to tell more if you respond emotionally or negatively.
If your child doesn't talk
to you, don’t think it’s a sign of poor parenting. Talk openly with your child. Good communication may decrease your child’s vulnerability to sexual abuse & increase the likelihood that he will tell you if he is sexually abused.
Teach your child about her
body, about what abuse is & when age-appropriate, about sex.
Teach her words that help
her discuss sex comfortably w/you.
Teach your child that it is
against the “rules” for adults to act in a sexual way w/children & use examples.
Start early & talk often.
Use everyday opportunities to talk about sexual abuse. Teach your child that it is your responsibility to protect him from sexual abuse.
Teach your child you can only
protect her if she tells you when something is wrong. Listen quietly. Children have a hard time telling parents about troubling events.
One survey showed that only
29% of parents ever mentioned or discussed sexual abuse w/their children. And even then, most failed to mention that the abuser might be an adult friend or family member. Plus the discussions often occurred too late.
4 Steps to Protecting Your Family
Online - By Legrand Bagley
Pornography marketers will make at least 2 new Websites while
you read this message. That’s thousands every day. The more sites they can make, the more traffic they get & the
more money they make. It doesn’t matter if you, your spouse, or kids are looking for them or not. They’re looking
for you - & everyone they can get.
Many Americans accidentally stumble onto pornographic
material while online. A recent story at CNN (see www.cnn.com for details) tells how a man
was arrested for redirecting unsuspecting victims to one of over 3,000 pornographic Websites.
He
used common misspellings for sites like Disney, Britney Spears, or Barney, so that people looking for those sites would
find pornography instead.
Why would a pornography marketer go after people that aren’t
looking for pornography? Because they can make more money by constantly finding new targets & selling to them.
Young teenagers & kids are
naturally curious, are developing physically & are more likely to be addicted to pornography later in life if they're exposed to it while they’re young.
This is one of the largest
industries online & it continues to grow rapidly. You don’t have to throw out your computer to keep your
home safe from Internet filth. But you do need to follow a few precautions.
1. Keep your
email safe.
Many email services filter out emails you don’t want before you see them- check in with whatever
you use now to see if they offer this. Another way to keep your email safe is to use 2 addresses, one for family & friends & one for everyone else. Guard your private email address closely.
Use your public email address everywhere else. If it starts to get a lot of unwanted emails, stop using it & make a new
one.
2. Be active in your family’s Internet choices and make rules.
Make
sure your children know that they shouldn’t give out personal information to strangers through email or while chatting.
Limit ‘alone’ computer time for everyone, especially at night. Talk about what sites your family visits.
3. Delete file-sharing programs.
You’ve probably heard of Napster, Kazaa, Morpheus, and
a dozen other programs used to trade music on the Internet. These programs are also used to trade pornographic pictures and
movies. They can find and download pornography more efficiently than any Website, and can be accessed even if you use a filter
or a filtered Internet service provider. You might want to get rid of these anyway because the music industry has started
suing individual users of these programs who download pirated music files.
4. Choose an
advanced Internet filter.
The problem with many Internet filters is that there are so many new sites every day.
Some filters just block out certain keywords, like “xxx”. The problem with this is, it blocks out sites that have
nothing to do with pornography. It also doesn’t block out sites that are in different languages or that may not use
certain keywords.
Choose a filter that updates dynamically or automatically, so it
blocks out the thousands of new sites set up every day. Another key component is to choose a filter that blocks more than
just pornographic Websites. For example, blocking out file-sharing sites once you delete file-sharing programs from your computer
will help keep your computer safe. Other categories you might want to block: alternative lifestyle, dating sites, lingerie,
illegal activities (like how to make bombs, etc.) and crude or obscene sites.
Making your computer safe from Internet
filth is easy.
It only takes a little bit of up-front effort to prevent a lot of problems that can occur down the road.
Protecting Your Children On-Line
- by Richard Niolon, Ph.D.
Teaching your children to use the Web isn't easy. The Web offers your child vast amounts of information. However, it doesn't offer you a
way to determine your child's readiness for that information.
For adults, it
redefines many issues, forcing us to change our way of thinking. However, for children, it doesn't change anything. For children, it defines and shapes the way they think from the start.
How does the internet effect our children? In 1997, 66% of children used computers at homes, schools and libraries.
By the year 2000,
it's estimated that the average child will spend 100 fewer hours watching TV each year and will likely reinvest most all of
this time into on-line activities. The On-Line world is an active place, compared to television, which is passive. Children play, learn, communicate, make friends and shop on-line. They'll grow into adults who do the same.
Already we use
our computers to "telecommute" and consultant from home offices, changing the way we work and conceptualize our careers.
Many software programs
provides "push" technology by collecting information individually tailored to our needs, changing the way we think about "researching" issues. The Web has altered our ideas of conducting business and redefined consumer marketing and spending.
The On-Line world
has introduced new concepts (like "cyber-dating")
and confronted us with the role that others' opinions and views will play in our own moral belief systems. You may feel that you walk a fine line between protecting your children and inspiring
young adults.
On top of all this, you may be making decisions about technology you
don't understand very well.
One thing that
makes the Dilbert comic strips so funny is that the "pointy-haired boss" doesn't understand the technology in his office. We often laugh at people who are "computer illiterate" and who needs things "dumbed down" for them. Secretly, we all fear being one of those people one day.
Face it; if you
sit with your child at a computer, you'll teach your child something and learn something from your child. This changes the nature of the parent-child relationship in some ways, creating a cultural and generational clash that most parents find
disturbing.
You might be tempted to just throw your hands up and let your kids "run loose"
on the Web.
You might tell yourself
"I don't understand it, so what help could I be?" or even, "I'd look stupid and who wants to look (even more)
stupid to their teenager?" However, you must remember that even if you don't understand the technology, you have something your children don't.
You have experience thinking, experience critically weighing "facts" others give you against your own experience. You have experience making moral
decisions, experience considering the basis for and consequences of your beliefs. Frankly, this is the most valuable thing you can give your children.
Here are some ideas to guide you in making decisions
about your children and the Web. This article isn't meant to be exhaustive and it shouldn't replace your own judgment. This is meant to help you consider issues and decide how you wish to proceed.
Younger
children
Children under 10 shouldn't be allowed to use the Web by themselves. Letting your children "loose" on the Web is no different
than letting them wander freely through an unknown neighborhood.
Children at this age aren't smart enough or mature enough to weigh the information available to them, much less resist many
of the marketing ploys and reject the "undesirables" they can meet on-line.
Spending time with your
child looking through the Web is a the only way to teach your child how to handle the flood of stimulation and how to develop
their own belief system to prepare them for the future.
Undesired Pages:
Talk to children about what they shouldn't see on-line and why.
Statements like
"This Web page seems to have grown-up stuff on it, so no kids allowed," or "Children shouldn't see this kind of stuff because
it's confusing. When you get older, you'll understand it" or "This page has people doing things we don't like."
This covers everything
from an X-Rated adult site, to a "fun" site with a flaming toaster.
After Dave Barry wrote
a column about Poptarts being flammable, several people tried to see just how easy it is to set fire to electrical
appliances, posting pictures of their "experiments." Personally, I thought it was funny, but if your 10 year old child tries this at home, you might not.
Desired
Pages: Direct your child's attention to pages with favorite book or TV characters and educational themes like special
pets or hobbies. In other words, teach them fun ways to use the Web.
Remember too that
the things they find will make it "fun," but spending time with you and showing you what they can do is also fun. Praise your
child's curiosity. The Web offers them the ability to make decisions about what they want to know, seek all sorts of new information, weigh
what they find and look again for more. Praise your child's desire to learn.
Chat Rooms:
Children enjoy going to chat rooms and talking with other children. Parents sometimes worry that their children will fail to develop social skills. This is unlikely, since talking on-line is much like talking on the phone, but with a new possibility added.
On-line your child
can be something new and different and try on a new identity. No one will judge them on their looks, their clothes, or their "kewlness." They can be smart, pretty, older, younger, or anything else they
want. If they offend someone in a chat room, they can leave, reenter with a new identity and try the same social interaction again. Real life
doesn't allow for "practice," but on-line beginning relationships do.
For younger children, it may be hard to understand that some of the people in chat rooms aren't who they say they are. They may be children playing pranks or trying on a new
identity, or they may be adults attempting to manipulate children. Talk to your child about what goes on and what they think. Explain,
"Pretending to be someone you aren't just for fun
is OK, but pretending so you can trick other people isn't nice."
That's enough for a 10
year old child.
You can allow your children to go to chat rooms and talk to other children if you "listen" along. There are many safe places to chat on-line. Watch the conversation topics, the social interactions and the problems and solutions presented.
This doesn't have to be
a "Big Brother" experience; use this time to learn about your children's friends, who they'd like to be and why, the
things they like to talk about and the questions they want answered. Share their excitement. Offer suggestions on friendships and communication. Teach them to be thoughtful and considerate in on-line relationships just like in real life relationships.
Rules for Use: Now
is a good time to start setting up some basic computer rules.
One might be "No food
or drink at the computer," since one spilled soda can trash a keyboard.
If you have a computer
at home for work or a home office, set hours of the day when the computer is available for play and hours when it's off limits.
For large families, both parents and children need to go on-line together. Let mom and son spend 30 minutes on-line tonight, while dad and daughter play together at something
else. Tomorrow night, switch places and the next night, switch parents.
Ultimately,
you need to teach from an early age that on-line access is a privilege that comes with rules and responsibilities. Kids don't use it by themselves without adult supervision.

How Do We Protect Our Children From
Predators? - By Linda J Alexander, ESQ.L
In light of the increasing dangers to our family, especially our children - WhoisHe.Com & WhoisShe.Com is an online professional service that provides comprehensive background checks and criminal
record searches designed to verify if persons are who they purport to be.
This online service is the brainchild of Southern California attorney, Linda Alexander. WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com
allows people to do these checks for reasonable rates, in order to protect their families
and themselves.
According to Alexander, the conviction and death sentence of
David Westerfield, for the kidnap and murder of his 7 year old neighbor, Danielle Van Dam, has caused anxious uneasiness to parents who are now seeking ways to protect their loved ones from suspicious persons who live in their own neighborhood with potential access to their family .
Additionally,
the abduction of Elizabeth Smart in Utah last summer has also caused much concern, when it was revealed that the handyman who worked in the Smart House was a career criminal. A background and criminal record
check would have provided this information to the Smart family and might have alerted them to potential dangers of bringing
this man into their home and providing him access to their family.
This concern and effort to protect their family members have caused thousands to swarm to WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com, to find
out more information on persons such as:
who provide home
services, such as:
-
Gardeners
-
Painters
-
Contractors
-
House Cleaners
-
who would have access
to a person's home and their family.
Alexander says that she has also had requests
to check out Sports Coaches and their assistants who are spending a great deal of time with children. Parents are concerned about the safety of their family members. They want to find out if the person who has access or is in charge of their children is a convicted
pedophile or has any type of criminal record.
After doing the background and criminal
record checks, Alexander has found that many who have sought to work with children or in the home, have convictions such as
driving while under the influence, abuse and assault. Further, there have been some persons who were convicted sexual offenders.
Information is the key to assist people in determining whether or not to bring someone
into their home or allow them access to their family and especially to their children.
The
service also assists in tracing lost loves, friends, finding estranged family members and old army buddies. In addition,
there are those seeking to find out about their potential mate, business partners or employees. The cost of the service provided
by WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com range from $39 to $75
WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com
has been widely recognized on CBS’ “48 HOURS" & the CBS Early Show; in People Magazine, listed in Yahoo Internet Life Magazine's
top 100 sites for the Year 2000, in Entrepreneur Magazine, MEN ARE FROM MARS /WOMAN FROM VENUS, TALK OR WALK, USA and THE
OTHER HALF.
Anyone harboring doubts about someone can check out the website at http://WhoisHe.Com
and at http://WhoisShe.Com and questions can be sent to CheckHimOut@WhoisHe.Com or contact Linda Alexander, ESQ. at 760-806-4377.
