Hemophilia will cause anyone to bleed to death. That is a very rare condition though.

Is it possible for a girl who is on her period to bleed to death?

I don’t think so but that would be pretty nasty. Thank you for putting that thought in my head. ChaCha!

A girl only loses about 3 tablespoons of blood during each period. The amount of fluid lost is 6-9 Tbsp (including tissue & mucus)

Do you think these parents should go to jail and have their other children removed from their care?

Q: Abusing Children in the Name of GodBy Shawn F. PetersA hemophilic boy in Pennsylvania bleeds to death over a period of two days from a small cut on his foot. An Indiana girl dies after a malignant tumor sprouts from her skull and grows so enormous that it’s nearly the size of her head. A boy in Massachusetts succumbs to a bowel obstruction. (His cries of pain are so loud that neighbors are forced to shut their windows to block out the sound.)None of these children benefit from the readily-available medical treatments that might save their lives, or at least mitigate their suffering. Because the tenets of their parents’ religious faiths mandate it, their ailments are treated by prayer rather than medical science. The results are tragic.It is difficult to determine precisely how many children in the United States lose their lives every year as the result of the phenomenon that has come to be known as religion-based medical neglect. A landmark study published in the journal Pediatrics uncovered more than 150 reported fatalities over a 10-year period – a tally that one of the study’s authors later said represented only “the tip of the iceberg” of a surprisingly pervasive problem. Assessing whether forms of religion-related child abuse pose a greater risk to children than more widely publicized threats, such as ritual satanic abuse, a wide-ranging study funded by the National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect concluded that “there are more children actually being abused in the name of God than in the name of Satan.”Since the late nineteenth century, hundreds of such instances of abuse have resulted in tangled criminal litigation. The parents charged in these cases – many of them Christian Scientists or members of small Christian churches that ground their doctrines in narrowly literal interpretations of the Bible – often have argued that the First Amendment safeguards their decision to adhere to their faiths’ religious traditions and treat their ailing children solely by spiritual means. Prosecutors, meanwhile, have balked at the notion that constitutional protections for religious liberty provide an absolute bar to state regulation of religious conduct, particularly when that behavior puts the safety of children at risk. Their task often has been complicated, however, by murky state manslaughter and abuse statutes that appear to provide exemptions for religious healing practices.Arguing that they were “Christians first, citizens afterward,” a prominent Christian spiritual healer once urged his followers to disregard secular laws that might compel them to forsake their religious beliefs regarding healing. Such is the dilemma that confronts parents who choose to treat their sick or injured children with prayer instead of medicine. Not only must they safeguard the health of their sons and daughters; they also must try to reconcile their devotion to God with their duties as citizens in a society that boasts a long and sometimes checkered history of regulating uncommon religious conduct.Defining these obligations through the enforcement of secular laws – especially ones that are constitutionally fuzzy – can be a complicated business. Moreover, there is no guarantee that it will deter devout and stubborn parents from engaging in religious practices that endanger the health of their children. But the alternative – simply ignoring the suffering of the youngest and most vulnerable members of our nation’s churches – seems unconscionable.Shawn Francis Peters’ latest book, “When Prayer Fails: Faith Healing, Children, and the Law,” was published in October by Oxford University Press. He teaches at the University of Wisconsin-MadisonWhite Tornado: Why are you making this personal? Yes, I am pro choice and rather flattered that you follow my posts. I don’t see a relationship between pro chice and this question unless it is that pro life interest and protection ends at birth.

A: I ran into a bizzarre website last year run by this guy who espoused, among other things, that our culture is fundamentally flawed in treating a child as property of the parent(s). Situations like these make me wonder if perhaps he’s on to something there.Wicked is right, children don’t get to choose their parents. Society has an obligation to rescue those who are unfortunate enough to be born to people who are unable to provide the most basic needs… whether the problem is crack addiction or medical neglect due to religious belief shouldn’t confuse the issue.

…………………..period……………………………?

Q: . I only had 2 periods my first one on the 19september2009 and second on the 1 of January 2010 when will i get my third one i never get cramps or pains before I’m on and i never know if I’m going to be on2. i hate having periods not because it hurts its that something is dripping and i feel really self continues hate wearing a pad and I will not wear a tampon . When I on it i feel like all i can do is stay at home. Am scared of it leaking. I’m usually on it from 2-3 days and i hate it what can i do to stop it without surgery or injections is there any pills and no stupid answers plzand some person said this is that true ”DO NOT go on the pill or get the injection or any kind of implant.From what I understand from the way that you type and the fact that you’ve only had two periods in your life you’re very young.The pill and all those other contraceptives mess around with your hormones and unless you’re actually using them for contraceptive purposes (that means having sex and not trying for a baby) DO NOT USE THEM.Did you know that the most popular contraceptive pill shortens your life expectancy (just like smoking)?Did you know that it can cause all kinds of nasty side effects such as blood clots in the legs and lungs? It also causes heart problems, gal bladder problems and, in some cases, sudden death? These side effects sometimes change peoples entire lives. I know a girl who now has to take half an aspirin every day of her life to avoid deep vein thrombosis and she’s only 23. I’ve just come off of the pill because of some pretty serious side effects involving my legs and the doctor said that if I stay on I could possibly go blind.Also, after being on the pill for as little as two months it can drastically alter your periods. As soon as you come off of the pill, they can become completely irregular and very VERY heavy.What sounds better? 2-3 days of painless bleeding or a possibly completely different lifestyle with all kinds of complications?Pills that alter something as complicated as your hormones are NOT to be taken lightly. Please don’t mess around with them. Stay natural and just deal with your little periods, I promise you that there are worser things out there.Also, the fact that you are so young means your body needs time to adjust to puberty. Give it time to deal with periods on its own and they will become more regular, without dangerous chemicals

A: Whoever gave you all this information about the pill and blood clots and being blind, they are talking out of their arse!I went on the pill at the age of 12 because my periods were so painful and meant I would almost pass out with the pain. I stayed on them until I was 22 when I came off to have my daughter, and after she was born I went back on it again. I had NO problems with heavy periods coming off of it and no problems at all.After going back on it I did actually suffer blood clots and very nearly died BUT it turns out that I have a blood disorder and should never have been on the pill in the first place. The brands of pill that are most likely to cause blood clots have now been withdrawn from the market and you would not be given. If you go onto what is called the ‘mini’ pill there is NO chance of having blood clots, even I would be allowed to take the mini pill. As for causing blindness thats crap! If this tablet allowed people to loose their eyesight, it would be banned.When I had my clots I had to stop taking it immediatly. I’ve had no heavy periods and no serious pain, the only problem I have had is a hormonal imbalance which is now regulated by other medication. The hormonal imbalance is nothing to do with having been on the pill.If you can handle having your period it is better for you, its just one of those things of being a woman. I hate having mine, i’m terrifed of leaking and can’t get on with tampons, so I understand your fears and suffering, we’ve all been there. But trust me as you get older and learn to deal with them more it’ll be become less and less of a problem. Being on the pill means that you will still feel that ‘dripping’ feeling and you would still leak, so going on the pill isn’t going to stop them at all. I’m afraid there is nothing you can do to stop them, you just have to learn to live with them as we all do

can someone read this and tell me what i can approve on? im 15 and im writing a book titled Suicide Streets.?

Q: Suicide StreetHi My Name Is…Sitting in the half broken desk listening to Ms. Jones babbling about mythology. I wasn’t listening nor watching her. The corner of my eye caught a glimpse of red. Only type of red you would see on a fresh strawberry was the color of her hair. Long and straight waving down to her lower back. I sat there and wondered why am I listening to this? Its all lies there were never any gods and goddesses. There is only one god right. Wrong. Cause if there was a god he would use his almighty powers to heal my wrist right. I think I cut too deep this time. But oh well cant take it back. Cant go to the hospital and fix it. It’ll just heal like the other cuts. The bell finally rings as I start to head out Ms. Jones quickly stops me. “Diana hold on a minute. Look at this Your grade is a B- you can do better than this you‘re a straight A student. Its most likely because of the short story I suggest you write another one by next Monday.”“Next Monday?? That only gives me a week what am I supposed to write about?”“Well your last one was about other people and it was very difficult to understand because you don’t really know how other people feel. So I think you should write about your self this time. Imagine it’s a diary. Write everything that happens and your thoughts and feelings.”She smiled as if it was a simple task. “Ok Ms. Jones.”3rd period we had a substitute everyone had fallen asleep. I decided to start my short story. I began writing quick. So much was inside me that I wanted to write. Just didn’t exactly know how. 1/5/10 , 12:23 pm. All around me are strange but familiar faces. Over there sitting by the window is this girl I don’t even know her name. she’s new though. She barely speaks. No one talks to her but people do talk about her. How she dresses how she talks and where she’s from. That used to be me. I used to be the outsider I still am just dress better. Hi my name is Diana Williams I live in St Paul, Minnesota. I go to Como Park High School. I’m a freshman. I live in a two bedroom apartment with my mother. I have one sister and too many brothers. I have no friends. You may call them that but I call them my associates. People I talk to rarely hang out with out of school. Why should I call girls who talk about me to there other friends my friends. I consider that a backstabber. Why do I even talk to them if they do that? Well then I would just be another girl sitting by the window.By 5th period my wrist starts hurting again. I grab my torn planner and give it to the teacher. I head to the bathroom with my backpack. Made sure no one was in the bathroom then locked it. I’ve done this before, grabbed my needle put it on the sink. Slowly took off my patches. My arm was ketchup red. You could clearly tell I had just cut my arm, touching the wound made drops of blood hit the floor. I’m surprised the floor didn’t melt, for my blood is nothing but acid slowly killing me inside. Why haven’t I died yet? I really don’t know, I guess u can call that a miracle or a slow upcoming death. I hear a pounding on the door girls yelling to get in the bathroom. “shut up!” , I say “I’m almost done damn.” Truthfully I never even started I was too busy looking at my blood run throughout the bathroom floor, it looked so gentle a pure red you would think it was harmless too bad it isn’t. I hurried stitching up the wound. Stitching it up didn’t hurt as much as the reason why I did it. I myself used to wonder why people were crazy enough to cut themselves why not just kill yourself why are u torturing yourself for? Well I don’t know about those other suicidal girls but me, I need the punishment, I deserve the punishment. For all my wrong doing and hurting towards the people I actually love. It hurts when my heart bleeds the sorrow. So I set the anguish to a part in my body, it feels good, a rush you cant get from getting high. Cut myself is a way to give me what I truly deserve. Death.Hi, my name is Diana Williams and I’m suicidal

A: that is brilliant…really close to why most people in high school are suicidal i love it if you ever finish it send me an email…oh i wrote a diary too before,my real life about self harm and suicide if your interested i’ll send some of it to you:)
