note: the word geography is like "writing the world"
the focus should be on PHYSICAL real mountains and rivers and less on "naming countries and capitals" because the rivers are REAL and worse the broders change... and capitals change and were not real only name.
lesson one. if we watch the sky the 'pattern of stars" appeasrs to move together. thsi could either be because the stars are moving together or because we stand on a sphere which is spinning and facing some stars until the spin continues and we face other stars. in astronomy we will learn which but this is geography.
our sphere is named the earth. is it a sphere some people doubt this. however we bserve the moon and neighboring planets are a sphere so we should believe this is a sphere to.
our sphere called a planet is named palanet earth.
the name is bad because most of the surface is waternot earth. admittedly under the water is solids dirt and metals. based on the magnetic field there MUST be much metal inside so either name it "water or metal" but not earth... but hey it is just a name. to identify which planet.
the problem with a sphere is how to define and identify points. luckily since our sphere spins we can identify an axis which we all spin around. we name one north and one south as names.
we could beigin our stidy from the south axis or south pole and there is a vast continent there however that "south continent" is very cold so almost nobody lives there except temperary researchers so instead we will analyze the impotrtant parts from the north.
if we travel from the north towards a certain english speaking country named UK that is moving south. for lesson one we will not go to UK because they had enuf authority in deciding time zones and longitude... instead we will go south from the north axis named north pole to another english s[eaking country named canada.
the country should less important than PHYSICAL real mountains and rivers.
the continent extends across east to west around 3000 miles across. [around 4700 kilometers by 0.6 miles each]. the water north of the land needs a name to identify it.
in this generation it is frozen often many meters of thick ice over the water. why not "north" ocean arctic relates to bear but that was a bad decision. many stars are on the north so call it north.
1 north ocean.
the land to the south is a continent with the country canada. the division of canada is political and the focus should be on physical features.
a vast bay is in the north of canada named hudson bay. the hudson bay region has many cities and many territorial divisions which are for political administration. on the west side of this continent is a major river Yukon river. it is th ethird longest river in the continent. the highest peak (once named mount mckinley back when i learned geography) is the highest peak in the continent. politiicains changed its name to the "native" name "denali"
[protest: although the earlier name had been recognized by CONGRESS AND LASTED for around a hundred years who else but obama would put the pattern america last and lowest, even american leaders lose why? because obama was democratic party and mckinly was rpublican! that shows how bad obama was.] change a name and remove the honor of an american leader to put americans "lower". those natives named it for an imaginary god but mckinly was real and a leader. stupid obama... the worst democratic president in the last four decades. so wht should we call it? the majority agreed to change the name... to denali. oh well... oops! no they did not! congress had named it for the assasinated republican president but obama did "executive "order that is one! he did not get congressional approval. that is disgusting reversing the vote and teh hundred year old name judt because a democrat wants to remove republican it was only executive order.
well trump could make an executive order too... congress never approved. " president then raised another of Obama's Alaska decisions. “Wasn't the name of a big mountain in Alaska changed by executive order?” Trump asked, according to the newspaper. (Obama announced in 2015 the federal government was changing the name of Mount McKinley to Denali, the Native Alaska name for the peak.) +The president brought up the idea of changing the name back to Mount McKinley, named for a U.S. president who never visited the 49th state, and the senators quickly argued against it. "Lisa—Senator Murkowski—and I jumped over the desk. We said, 'No, no!'" said Sullivan, who was speaking at the Alaska Federation of Natives convention in Anchorage, the newspaper reported.
as a child they taught me mckinly for the assasinated president... it did not matter he was republican buit oba,ma the democrat we know what he thought."
.
moving southward away from the north pole of the spinning axis we will se the longest rivers in this continent. the "Missouri and MIssissippi" Rivers are the longest. the missouri river pours its water into the mississippi wiver which reaches the coast therefore instead of many names use the same name "mississippi" for the river and the gulf which it pours into.
similarly the continent should be named like its longest river Missouri. one name for two
the water which mississippi empties into should be named the same one name mis. gulf because of the river and also to avoid country names for shared water.
so two names missouri and missisippi name 4 each names a river and one names a continent and the other athe gulf which it puours into
another physical real feature is mount whitney near the west coast of the missouri continent.

solve the hot summer
wow !! i really feel the heat of the summer now- even indoors...
i offer a solution below because - consider- my FOOLISH childhood. adults sent us to "bake" under the hot sun playing sports such as baseball under the hot sun.
that is cruelty to naive kids by making them suffer by "playing" under the hot summer sun. they should be in the shade, at least under a tree...
six years too late when my age ten i finally noticed the issue and after one inning baking under the sun in the outfield, i realized how inconsiderate even diabolicaly INCONSIDERATE the adults were for ignoring our suffering and insisting we go "out" specifically in hot summer.
so i refused to stand under the sun. the camp counselor argued with me so i compromised i would only "bat" as offense but not stand in the outfield.
even indoor basketball, if- as i saw- if it is played in a gym with no "cooling" of air-conditioning that is also cruelty to children making them suffer running around in a hot gym during the summer heat from june through august.
SOLUTION
***instead we should teach the children to avoid the heat. TO stay indoors with a fan and not run under the sun or in a hot gym.
what will they do? watch tv for one hour? what about the rest of the day?
make a schedule they can choose one hour of tv from the tv listing- SELECTING THE SHOW THAT THEY PREFER, for a limited time with no interruptions. then around that "time frame" they should read books that they choose from a library obviously be "straight" so the library time is not cancelling the tv-show they selected.
also playing table-games indoors in the shade instead of running. not ONLY playing all day also some tv... and reading. and cold ice cream!
summer camps are evil.

want to be a "good" parent?
some BASICS of good parenting
obviously providing the minimum needs... shelter from cold and nourishing food... also when the child is sick. giving medicine and sometimes surgery if it is necessary- BUT NOT when the kid is healthy!
so that is another reason not to circumcise a healthy baby for good parenting and certainly when we consider the dangers of any unnecessary cutting and removing of healthy stuff.
i cannot bear the thought that each day more and more kids are cut and put through trauma and risk... and that parents ignore a basic idea of good parenting (for any excuse).
++while discussing good parenting one more detail is URGENT altho not about circumcision...
the moment always comes at mealtime when the 4 year old (or 5 etc.) kid eats a few bites and says "i am done"... it is URGENT at that moment when parents usualy say "finish what is on your plate" to consider that the child is feeling the "signal" to stop eating called satisfaction... for example age 4 [younger they just want to play] a signal that i was TRAINED AND CONDITIONED TO IGNORE therefore after blurting out "finish that plateful" it is URGENT to say, when you hear yourself saying that idea, "i changed my mind eat one more bite of protein and i will save the rest so in an hour you will eat some more"- why is this URGENT? see reply
because if- day after day- the kid feels satisfied but despite that parents push them to continue eating... 2 physical results are: they will become "conditioned with habit" to ignore the message signal of satisfaction that the body sends... after all the kids stomach is smaller than my adult one... unless i make the kid STRETCH it... which is the second result of eating more when you feel "satisfied" which leads to "overeating" later and in my situation from age 20-30 noticing that i never feel "satisfied" until the stomach stretches enuf to feel "full' but the goal should not be to feel "full" but instead to feel that "i ate enough..."--!
so instead as above say "eat onemore bite of protein and i will save the rest you will eat more in an hour".
URGENT child health

the accusers
what do the accusers TRULY want?
obviously gazans should not try to stab anybody... nor shoot deadly explosive rockets at israel.
think for yourself: if they would not, then no need to shoot back, therefore only the gazans deserve blame for the inevitable civilian deaths... so what do the accusers truly want when they announce a gazan died?
the complainer wants israel "not to shoot back and die easily" they want the terrorists to win... and kill the jews... until it is their turn to hear "convert to islam or die".
