Beverly Said:

My daughter just turned 6 years old and writes many of her numbers and letters backwards, Can this be normal?

We Answered:

Its VERY normal. My son is 6 and he does the same thing. He very often writes 3, 5, 6 and 9 backward, and for letters its b,d,s and z mainly. I spoke with his teacher about this, and talked to some of my friends that were early education majors, and all said this is a normal phase of development. It'll straighten itself out within the next year, nothing to worry about, just correct her when she does it backward. Good luck!

Equifax credit report changed in 6 months, Can i fight this to change it back?

We Answered:

It may be different for Canada, but I kind of doubt it.

Whenever you feel there is an error in your credit report, you have the right, by law, to dispute it. They have to, by law, send your explanation with the credit report, to anyone who requests your credit report.

This is the same as US citizens have the right to see their medical records and enter any written comments on them that have to kept with the records by law.

Credit Collection calling 6 years after getting no bill?

We Answered:

Under the Federal Debt Collection Law, if you send the debt collector a letter insisting that he stop contacting you, he must stop. The law permits just one more letter informing you what additional steps may be taken. As for recovering the money, a lawsuit generally must be filed within four years of the time you default.

Negative information on your credit report becomes obsolete after seven years and generally may not be reported.

Angela Said:

This is what my 6 year old asked me: "Mommy what does i'm a horny slut mean?"?

We Answered:

You say you live in a 'pretty small town' -- like, big enough to have a newspaper, but small enough to send a photographer off to the local park, and a cub reporter to the alderman's office? Worth a try...

However, it might be more pleasant to just paint over it yourself, and write a note about how you'll be voting differently in the next local election.

Sue Said:

Will I get in trouble for writing a statement saying the police report i filed wasn't what happened?

We Answered:

Stick to the truth. That is always the easiest and most appropriate was to go. What ever they ask, tell the truth period. This is really his problem, not yours.
