I am a Single Mum of two young children and am looking into moving to Toronto. I would like to know which areas are good i.e good schools, safe and child friendly. Thank you.
Hi Galen: The best place for you is where YOU feel comfortable. Have you visited different parts of the city? Do you have a car? How will you get to work? Most areas are set up like small towns within a big city. They have all the services you need; stores, libraries, community centres etc.
There are many services for "newcomers." I suggest finding one and using them to your advantage.
These services are often advertised through brochures at libraries and YWCA employment centres. I suggest talking with an expert, rather than listening to someone like me saying "Scarborough is really okay," or "Oakville is the best…" or whatever.
I am also giving you a link to the city’s website. Only you can decide where you want to live, and these services are there for you to help you decide. How far do you want to travel for groceries in the cold of winter or blazing heat of summer? Do you want your kids playing on busy through streets or a nice park? Spend some time looking around and talking with experts. Good luck.

Aaaaarrrggghhh!
My year six son (aged 10) has come back with some homework which is driving me mad. Normally, I’m pretty good at maths but this has got me. If you can help I’d really appreciate it. The homework is all to do with estimating division – the long division (sorry, the ‘bus stop’ method) I can do no problem I just can’t work out how to estimate…
Anyone know what the KS2 answer is?
Maths estimation is an essential skill that is part of the maths mentals. It’s often that teachers use rules, formula and algorithmn to teach maths. This is really what you call rote-teaching of maths. To be good at maths kids should learn the mentals.
You should be able to find books on maths mentals at the shops. You should get your kids to do a lot of mental maths using every day experience such as going to the supermarket and work out how cheap something is. It helps to develop the brain.
All mental matsh involve the skills to round the numbers to make them simple before working on them without pen and paper. For example, if you want to do 34 + 57, you would try 30 + 60. That gives you a pretty good estimate of the result.
Specific to your division problem, you can use rounding to simplify the problem and use mental to guess what the result will be. Use a calculator to check how close the kid is to the real result.
This website provides free tests and it is full of high performers. Your son may like to join and work his way up the rank.

My boyfriend is Iranian and my parents will not accept us for marriage. He is very good, beautiful and kind for 2 years and now that we want everything my parents say no because he is not Japanese. Help with your life experience.
And you think a board full of strangers will convince your parents to like your boyfriend? He will never be Japanese….your parents like what they like. If you love him, then marry him….it’s your choice, your life.
