at what age do parents mainly mothers stop referring to their offspring as "my child"

I dont know what LeRoy is talking about, but I'm referring to some threads that seem to only be created for the purpose of just being the OP
Oh, OK...
Shucks, I'm still "the baby of the family," and I'm going on 27 years of age. Depends on the mother, I guess...
I miss those days when all of the bills in the mailbox were addressed to my parents...
I like seeing black couples out and about, especially with children..
I wonder why I like that show, Candy Girls so much.
The Cosby show is the shit

Why do animals sleep?
to conserve energy...
why does almost everyone think that bear hibernate
Why do animals sleep?
Speaking of sleeping animals...
...How do fish (whales, sharks, etc.) sleep?
They're supposed to stay in constant motion in order to breathe. How the hell do they manage to get rest and stay alive?
Speaking of sleeping animals...
...How do fish (whales, sharks, etc.) sleep?
I think your biology may be a little twisted. Fish dont have to remain in constant motion to breathe. Most fish find places in their habitat to "rest" or sleep if you will by remaining motionless for some period of time. It is usually done at night near under water rocks or coral or other such things that can protect them from night time predators.
You might be right. I thought I did hear things about sharks needing to stay in motion. I could be wrong though...
to conserve energy...

It makes intuitive sense that it would be to conserve energy, replenish metabolism, "reboot" neurological functioning etc.
But why sleep?
I mean, there are studies that wounds tend to heal faster during sleep. But control experiments show the same rate of healing during conscious rest or dormancy.
You could make the evolutionary argument that it's counter-productive for animals to go into a state of unconsciousness, where they're more vulnerable to predators.
So why sleep?
I think you're right, sharks do. I can't remember why exactly but i think it has to do with their gill structure and how they breathe.
^^^^^ for some reason, this discussion is starting to turn me on

So why sleep?
you're right there are a whole group of animals including people who prey on their victims while they sleep. I guess you can say the evolution of those particular species who get preyed apon has allowed them to adapt and defend themselves during their vulnerable periods of sleep.
Your original question is still unanswered though... Why sleep

Right, it has to do with their need to keep water flowing over/through their gills so they can breathe...Damnit, when does Shark Week begin? The Discovery Channel is what we need right now.

What? Our conversation about animals (e.g. those in the oceans and seas)? If so, why is that?
Prove It...
I was thinking the same thing...
*rubs hands together and laughs evilly...*
you got it and can have my share also. After the beautiful weekend weather this is no way to start the week. It isn't even really raining. It is cold and misting.

I think it's the exchange of information between men that has nothing to do with sports or sex; I'm a bit of nerd so I love learning new things...

thanks doggish for that piece of info bruh very interesting stuff there.
Why is there a section of the casino where only asian people play the games
I'm not big on slots but this one here is good fun

Good looking out. I will check this out...
EDIT: after reading this, there is no conclusive evidence on whether sharks really sleep. The article says that in some cases they may do something equivalent to (human) sleep walking. This is due the fact that the "...'Central Pattern Generator' that co-ordinates swimming movements in sharks is not located in the brain, but in the spinal chord. Thus, it is possible for an unconscious shark to swim."
...And as the article says... "There is even a possibility that the sharks' fore, mid-, and hind- brain shut down in sequence, resulting in the shark equivalent of sleep-walking."...Interesting stuff though, very interesting...

If it wasnt for Denise the show show would have too perfect....
I disagree, Vanessa actually caused them alot of problems, even though she was supposed to be the really smart one. Most of my favorite episodes are about Vanessa.
drink er down... that was a great episode "mom dad you can't make rudy drink" "shut up and drink" drink er down

yep and the episode where she snuck off to Baltimore. "You were off to see the wretched to have big fun" "but mom.." "don't answer me when I'm talking to you" -classic

So why sleep?
Why not?
Large predatory cats, Protein-rich meat diets make them sleepy. They got the itis. Needing short intense bursts of energy for hunting , they need to sleep a lot.
Most animals are never in a state of full unconsciousness. You may think an animal is sleeping but notice it's ears, and eyes, they are usually barely open.
wouldn't a full unconscious state mean that said animal is dead or brain dead if you will
Even in the early moments of death an animals body will sometimes experience involuntary muscle movements.

I see fully unconscious people walking around all the time.
