Stopping Compulsive Behaviors

Hi Everyone!

An article reported in Scientific American originally by Kerri Smith reports scientist have been able to create and reverse compulsive behaviors in mice. They were also surprised to find the cortex had a role in the automatic behavior. The research lends potential for future treatment in human OCD.

WI Towns Fine Parents of Bullies

Hi Everyone!

I thought I would post this in case you had not seen it yet. There are some towns in WI which are fining parents and bullying of a certain age when nothing else has worked. $114 for a first offense & $177 for second. What do you think about this? Will this help? Some adults bully and many times this is where their children learn it from. The idea is if nothing else works and parents are not cooperative they would enforce this fine in hopes it will eventually curb behavior.
