Engineer Interview
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at PSEG (South Plainfield, NJ) in February 2015.
Interview was over the phone for job description. Then on-site interview with manager and tour of facility. After tour was group interview. Everything was straight forward. Very nice and pleasant during the interview. Did not act that they were above you.

Engineer InterviewNo OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
The process took a week. I interviewed at PSEG (Salem, NJ) in January 2011.
Applied for test engineer position. Received call one week later to interview with two senior engineers. Their interviews follow STAR (Situation, Task, Actions, Results) format. Every interviewer asks same questions (i.e describe how you handled a difficult project, were you successful, what was the end result?, describe a time where you promoted safety? what actions did you take? what was the end result?) The employers emphasize this interview strategy and you must answer by telling a story
Interview Questions
- what was the most challenging project you were part of? Answer Question
- what safety precautions have you taken in the past? 1 Answer

This is a very pretty Avon pendant and earrings set still in the original box! Per box: "Tiger's Eye Pendant on Multi Strand Natural Beads and Earrings Gift Set". The necklace has adjustable length and measures 19" fully extended. The pendant is 1 ¾" in length (including bale). Earrings are clip style and measure 5/8" x ½". I think the pendant has been dropped resulting in a horizontal break across the lower part of the tiger eye. It can be felt with a fingernail...
This is such a pretty pin and earrings set! The metal is silver-tone and the rhinestones are a beautiful light blue color. The pin measures 1 3/8" diameter and the clip back style earrings measure ¾" x ¾". Although unmarked, this is a quality set with all rhinestones being prong-set. Excellent condition!
This listing has a lovely vintage pin/brooch with matching clip back style earrings! They are shaped like grape clusters and the "grapes" are faux pearls. The earrings measure 1 3/4" in length, the pin is 2 3/4" in length.
Although this vintage pin and earrings set is not in mint condition, it is very pretty and caught my attention when purchased several years ago! The imperfection is some chipping of the green enamel on the grape leaves...

Beautiful vintage pin and matching earrings in 2 shades of purple! Pin measures 2 ¾" long (at longest) and 1" wide. The clip back earrings measure 1 1/8" long (at longest), 5/8" wide, and are marked Austria. Gorgeous!
Very pretty Eisenberg Ice pin and earrings set! Pin measures 1 5/8" diameter, the earrings are clip-back and measure ¾" x ¾". All pieces are marked Eisenberg Ice and rhinestones are prong-set and some are paste-set.
This is one of the prettiest glass bead necklaces I've seen in a long time. The beads are gorgeous and definitely eye-catching! The necklace is choker style, measuring 12" but the attached extender (also with glass beads) is an additional 3+ inches. The matching (clip style) earrings measure 1" diameter and backs are marked Japan. This is a lovely set to be worn and enjoyed or re-purposed – the beads are outstanding!
This listing has a gorgeous pin with matching earrings! They are Lucite with embedded dried mini flowers. The pin measures 2 ½" diameter, the earrings measure ¾" x ½" and are screw-back style.
This listing has a beautiful heart shaped pin with matching earrings! They are made of gold-tone metal, are in excellent condition and have beautiful rhinestones – see photo. Pin measures 1 ½" wide (at widest), 1 ¾" long (at longest). Earrings measure 1" wide (at widest, 1 1/8" long (at longest). There is no manufacturer identification but this set is a quality production.

This listing has a lovely HAR pin with matching earrings! Pin measures 2 ¼" x 1 ½", earrings measure 1" x 5/8" and all 3 pieces are stamped HAR. Very pretty!
I recently purchased several pieces of vintage jewelry at an estate sale -- this set is one of those items. I collect vintage glass bead necklaces and I purchased this set to add to my collection. I cannot wear clip earrings so I was only going to keep the necklace but it seemed a shame to split the set so I have decided to list it and hope someone will enjoy wearing this stunning set! The necklace is an unusual and very nice length -- it is almost 38" end to end. The earrings are 1 1/2" long...
Absolutely beautiful pin with matching earrings produced by b.david and still in the original box! Set with aurora borealis rhinestones, the circle pin measures 1 ¼" diameter, earrings measure 1 1/8" (at longest) and 3/8" wide (at widest). All are marked b.david and appear to have never been worn. What a super gift for a vintage jewelry collector or to add to your own collection!!
This is a pretty listing and is unusual in that the Lucite pin has the matching earrings! The pin measures 1 3/8" diameter and the dangle on the screw-back style earrings measures ¾" diameter. Super condition!
This is an absolutely beautiful set made by B. David! Earrings are 1" long (at longest), ½" wide (at widest), and are marked B. David. The matching pin measures 1 5/16" diameter and is marked B. David. Excellent condition!
Wow – this Weiss set is absolutely beautiful! The pin measures 2" diameter and the earrings are ¾" diameter. All are marked Weiss. Spectacular set!
This beautiful rhinestone necklace and earrings set has lots of sparkle! Necklace measures 14 ¾" long (end to end) and the earrings measure 1 3/8" long, 1" wide – all rhinestones are prong set. I noticed there appears to be a soldered place on one rhinestone but I believe it to be production. To my knowledge, there have been no repairs. I'm not certain if this necklace had a rhinestone or bead extender, if so, it is no longer on the necklace...
This unusual pin and earring set has been a part of my jewelry collection for many years! All three pieces are marked HAR – a very collectible name in the world of vintage jewelry. The pin measures 3" long (at longest) and 2" wide (at widest). The clip-back earrings measure 1 ¼" long and ¾" wide. Set is in excellent condition!
This jewelry listing is so pretty! There's a heart shaped pin with garnet red rhinestones. It measures 1 1/8" x 1 1/8". There is also a gorgeous pair of pierced earrings! They have a dark red heart dangle, earrings are ¾" long.
This Eisenberg Ice set is one of my favorites! The tree shape is free-form and it's accented with 2 red, 1 green, and 1 clear rhinestone for a dash of flash and sparkle. Earrings are wire dangle style and the tree measures ¾". The Christmas tree shaped pin measures 2 ¼" x 1 ½". Because of the size and shape, these pieces are unmarked. Lovely set!

When Teenage Daughters Become Rebellious
Back-talk, eye-rolling, disrespectful huffs and puffs – if you are Mommy to a teenager, then these are probably very familiar experiences for you! It seems like almost over night, the preteen that thought you were Super Mom turns into a stranger who hates doing what their told and never seem to listen to you at all!
Disrespect can be very frustrating – and it leaves all moms wondering if they were ever THAT bad when they were kids! If you ask your mom, you probably were! There are many reasons why girls can become rebellious in their teens. Hormonal changes can play havoc on their emotions, they might suddenly feel the need to establish their independent identity – one that their mom can't dictate, they could be imitating badly behaved peers, or they may simply be seeking attention!
Mom Ketaki came to us with a query about how her loving daughter has turned into a rebellious teen who answers every question with a resounding "NO!" Ketaki has started losing her patience and shouting at her daughter, which in turn makes her feel guilty and wish things were okay between her and her princess again!
Shweta Bhardwaj is of the opinion that her daughter is going through a phase when her body and emotions are affected by hormonal changes. She says, "Your daughter must be in a confused state and considers herself as grown up. You should treat her like an adult but with softness in your tone. Be friendly and motivate her to share her feelings with you."
Pratibha Gautam thinks that Ketaki should give her daughter the freedom she desires – if only for a few days! She says, "Ask why she is behaving this way. Talk to her like a friend, and respect and support her even when she acts out. Give her some freedom for a few days – this way she will know you trust her and stop behaving badly after a few days."
Pushpita Baruah says, "Support her even if she is wrong but when you get a moment alone with your daughter, talk to her in a friendly way to make her understand where she is going wrong. This is the age when children never listen if you tell them to do something in front of others. They feel as though you are commanding them and they resist your requests. Have some quality time with your daughter, and connect with her again!"
Dias Anissia has, perhaps, the best idea of all! Love her more and more, no matter how badly she behaves! She says, "Hug her more often! Start the morning with a soft hug and call her by a sweet nickname that she loved as a child! Ask for her help. Say that you want to finish some work, but you don't know how and ask her to help you out. Take her advice and that evening, when she returns home from school, tell her the idea she gave you worked – with hugs and kisses as toppings! When she feels you are a good listener, she will be very comfortable talking to you!"
We hope our Mommy advice has helped Ketaki find a solution. We hope she and her daughter find a way to peacefully and happily get through the terrifying teenage years!
We thank all the SOS moms who came to Ketaki's rescue:

Change in Baby's Complexion
When a baby is born, the new mom, dad and the close circle of relatives' worlds shrink down to the baby's movements, his goos and gaws, his appearance and inevitably the colour of his skin. Babies grow every second and rapid changes keep occurring in their bodies at cellular levels. Hence the change in the colour of the baby's skin.
However, the baby's skin colour is predetermined by his genes at the time of his birth and there is pretty much nothing a parent can do to change their baby's skin colour. There are, however, temporary factors like health and environmental factors that can cause a change in the baby's skin colour.
The baby's complexion also depends on how many weeks old the baby is during birth. A premature baby will have a thinner skin rendering him a reddish complexion (read blood), some babies turn bluish when crying, some are born with hair that may or may not eventually fall off. A newborn's skin colour may also change because he wasn't born with sufficient pigments and may subsequently grow darker with increasing exposure to sun light.
New mom Kalyani came to us with a query about how her little one's skin grew darker after a few days of birth and our SOS moms have their suggestions (and opinions) on the same.
Prerna Sharma and Shwetha Bhardwaj reccommend a coconut oil massage before the baby's bath time. Nirupama Joseph recommends the same but with olive oil.
Chetana Suvarna Ganatra says, "We do not have the concept of slapping sunscreen on newborns which is such a shame. Considering the country's geographical positioning, the climate is usually sunny and very warm. The tender skin of the baby needs to be protected with sunscreens all the time, even when indoors. Hope it helps."
Anjana Saravanan and Nirupine Shetty all recommend besan (gram flour) during the baby's bath time. Deea D Kshatriya adds a twist, "Mix besan with milk or malai, make a smooth paste and gently massage your baby before giving bath. It helps." Jyoti Kapil Chawla suggests mixing milk to the bathing water as besan could get stuck to the baby's skin if not washed off properly.
Namrata Lad Sharma has a whole new take on the subject, "Babies keep changing their colour due to more of RBC in their blood. Also due to exposure to the environment and decrease in birth weight as water goes off from the body. Complexion totally depends on the genes, there's nothing you can do to change the complexion before or after birth. You can apply coconut oil for massage, it will smoothen the skin, do not worry about the complexion and enjoy the motherhood!"
Noopur Agarwal also adds, " Babies often tend to change skin colour after birth and again go back to original colour after few months so there is nothing to worry about, but if you can still massage her with malai daily before bath, it could bring about a little change."
With all the solid advice we hope Kalyani has found her solution. But, we also cannot but agree with moms like Brittany Zachariah who think doesn't matter what colour your child's skin is.
We thank all the SOS moms who came to Kalyani's rescue:
Brittany Zachariah, Noopur Aggarwal, Namrata Lad Sharma, Anjana Saravanan, Nirupine Shetty, Chetana Suvarna, Prerna Sharama and Shwetha Bharadwaj.
When Baby Cries At Night
It's night time and your baby has had a long day. He has played with his teddy bear, laughed with his Daddy and made a mess on the floor with all that he could lay his hands on. After so much activity, sleep time should be smooth sailing, right? Well, Moms know better! The problem of babies crying into the night is not a new one but definitely very distressing for moms.
When Rakhi was upset about her baby crying for hours every night, our SOS Moms not only helped allay her fears but also gave splendid solutions to her problem.
Mom Neha Gaurav perfectly identifies the possible reasons your baby could be crying at night (and yes, there are several!): "Generally during initial months some babies cries due to colic pain, reason of which is still not known. However there could be various other reasons also which makes them uncomfortable like hunger, overclothing, temperature difference of environment." If the problem is colic pain, Neha suggests that drops like colicaid and neopeptine can work. Else, tried and tested solutions like rocking your baby, cuddling, or a good body massage before sleep time can do wonders.
While sleep time crying is normal in babies, there may sometimes be a need for medical advice. Shipra Vishwanath says that if nothing seems to be working, you may try either gripe water or 3-5 drops of "badishep arka". She recommends administering this solution upto 3-4 times every day.
Did you know that the wrong clothing could also be a reason behind your baby's crying? Chetana Suvarna Ganatra suggests moms to keep a check on whether their baby is getting over or under dressed. She corrects the common but erroneous perception that babies have to be in a warm condition, even if the current climate is already too warm. The little ones need to be dressed comfortably or else they are sure to get moody.
Sometimes, the trick behind a peaceful sleep-time for baby is very simple: let your baby sleep on their stomach! Mom Sandhya Lal has this interesting idea: "Sing a song that will soothe little one down. Or try and talk to the baby when she/he is sleeping on your stomach. Has always worked with both my babies." After all, Mom's comforting words can never fail!
So the next time you are worried about your baby crying, remember that she is still trying to come to terms with the BIG world. From over-stimulus to hunger to random moods, there are plenty of usually harmless reasons behind the crying. Just use the handy solutions given by our SOS Moms and remember, there's nothing that Mommy cannot put right!
A big thank you to all the wonderful mommies who helped Rakhi out:
Shipra Vishwanath, Sandhya Lal, Chetana Suvarna Ganatra, Neha Gaurav
It comes as a shock to many parents when they first learn that their toddler has been hitting others. Most times, toddlers start displaying aggressive behaviour when they are exposed to a new environment (read: playschools). This is a common problem and parents need not stress over it.
Your toddler is still struggling with his linguistic skills and cannot properly communicate what he wishes to. This is also the stage when your little one is learning to be independent and begins making decisions of his own. All of this combines with the impulse to try and control the others make children of this age get physical. A little hitting and biting is completely normal for a toddler, but parents should not ignore this behaviour. Parents should let their toddler know that aggressive behaviour is unacceptable through different ways.
Apoorva came to us with the same problem, recently her 2.7 year old tot has developed the habit of hitting his peers at his school and she is looking out for help. Our SOS Moms gave their two cents to Apoorva on this issue.
Deepti Pathak advices Apoorva to simply stay calm, "Wait for another six months. Your problem is very common", whereas Rekha Meena observes, "I just can't understand why today kids develop the habit of hitting others. I'm a mother of 2 kids and both of them are very disciplined. When they misbehave initially, stop them immediately so they come to know what is wrong and right. Mother is the first teacher."
Harsha Rajiv on the other hand has a logic we parents often overlook, "Usually when a kid gets hurt, elders in the house to console the kid say 'Wait I'll hit this thing that hurt you' and thinking the kid will stop crying. This is really bad. Do divert the attention of kid saying something else, I tell my kid to stop crying so the magical fairy can come. I think problem is if the kid doesn't like something he hits, even if it is a person. You have to convey a message to the kid with the support of teacher saying that hitting hurts. You have to keep trying to make him understand, don't give up."
Bhuvaneshwari Narayanan says, "It may be a reflection of what your kid sees around him. Home environment, wordy duels between parents, cartoons exhibiting hitting behaviours or may be he is hit by either of the parents or elders at home when he troubles you. We have to start talking to the kid who exhibits such rude behaviour. Even if you shout at him or punish him, it is not going to help. Don't hit him back, instead take time to spend more time with him. Whenever he is cranky give him something to eat. Again don't feed him with foods loaded with sugar. Give him homemade food. Take him to a park, play area and indulge in physical playing. This will calm him down. Especially swinging him in a swing for 20 minutes minimum daily would definitely calm his aggression."
Toddlers can be a handful to their parents. With all the energy and enthusiasm toddlers possess, it can be difficult to deal with them. But no parent should take their kid's aggressive behaviour lightly, parents should explain to their children the consequences of hitting immediately. Sending quality time and a few measures can solve this problem once and for all.
We thank all the moms who came to Apoorva's rescue:
Bhuvaneshwari Narayanan, Harsha Rajiv, Deepti Pathak, Rekha Meena, Robe Samarth Gaonkar and Rajnideep Sandhu.
Constipation is a very common concern among the moms of toddlers. Some of the common causes of constipation in toddlers are toilet anxiety, dehydration and diet. Swati's two and half your old child has the problem and she came to SOS moms for their advice on the same. Let's take a look at what our SOS moms have to say to Swati.
Moms Noopur Agarwal, Sowjanaya Kumar, Tanuja Karunakar, Anita Rankar, Shaveta Rahajan, Ritu Mishra Tripathi Sahrvani Aneel, Leena Parikh, Ameena Sayeed, Deepshikha Das, Sakshi Batra, Tanushree Ganguli and Sayonee Mishra all agree that Swati's little one should be given ripe bananas and papaya in different forms to ease his problem. Both banana and papaya are rich in fibre and can help with constipation. These two fruits can also be given in the form of milk shakes, juice and any other form to make them seem less boring to your active bub.
Also moms like Tanushree Ganguli, Jyoti Kapil, Mridula Shirwali, agree that spinach and greens will help Swati's child to a great extent.
Moms Sneha Satam, Sathya Ramu, Srividya Mushunuru suggest Swati to feed that the child should be fed black raisins soaked in water every morning. Chetana Suvarana Ganatara suggests that a porridge made of oats and prunes (packed with fibre) will help. Shanti Gupta says dried figs soaked in water overnight will also work wonders.
Preeti Khanna and Manasi Joshi suggest that the little one should be given milk with two drops of ghee in it. Milk may cause constipation but milk with ghee has a reverse impact. Sweta Bharadwaj, Sonia Sonu pipe in with their suggestion of feeding the tot with curd regularly.
Diana Samuel says, "Try 1/2 tsp honey in 1/2 tsp warm water on empty stomach in the morning. It worked for my child when she had severe constipation. Note: water must be warm not too hot nor cold. Give him lots of warm water throughout the day. Hope it might help." Harsha Rajiv suggests, " Water intake should be increased. Fruit juice, fresh fruits in puree form is also effective. Fibrous food like palak and other greens in soup can be given. Also Palak kichdi, carrot soup, carrot milkshake etc work. Do include greens in your baby's diet at least once a week.
Other SOS moms also agree that Swati's little one should be given warm water throughout the day in equal intervals. Also the child should be made to sit on his potty seat everyday even if he doesn't pass stool to build a habit. Constipation can be easily resolved with a few key changes in diet and momma's care of course!
We thank all the SOS moms who rushed in to aid Swati with her problem:
Tanushree Ganguli, Jyoti Kapil, Mridula Shirwali, Noopur Agarwal, Sowjanaya Kumar, Tanuja Karunakar, Anita Rankar, Shaveta Rahajan, Ritu Mishra Tripathi, Sahrvani Aneel, Leena Parikh, Ameena Sayeed, Deepshikha Das, Sakshi Batra, Tanushree Ganguli and Sayonee Mishra, Sneha Satam, Sathya Ramu, Srividya Mushunuru, Harsha Rajiv, Diana Samuel, Pratibha Gautam, Swati Agarwal, Shama Mittal, Nausheen Sharieff, Amrita Singh, Sarika Singh, Dia Bijlani, Namrata Mandowara, Chetna Ganatara, Bindiya Yadav, Sakshi Batra, Simpy Jalan and Reema Verma.
The Best Ways to Pump and Store Breast Milk
It is crazy to go back to work after maternity leaves. Like, the last time your coworkers saw you, you had a happy baby bump,but now, you're all flat out, dark circles and all. We feel you fellow mommas, we know what it is leave your baby and fight off the guilt that is steadily creeping up your throat. One major worrying factor for all new moms returning to work is – How Do I Store my Breast Milk? After all, your little cherub needs it and it is the best gift you can give your child.
Now, the women who want/need to work, take a minute to bless science, because science has given you this wondrous, wow worthy thing called the breast pump. These little gifts from technology lets mothers pump their milk out and store it for their baby's care takers to feed the little one whenever necessary.
One such new mom Veena is returning to work and she came running to us to ask us how she should store her breast milk and our unfailing SOS moms have come to our rescue.
Anisha Rodrigues Pinto hurried in to help Veena, "Well if you are starting work you can always start combining breast and bottle milk ( i.e. more times breast milks and fewer times bottle milk( supplement). But as you mentioned you want to know about breast milk, which is the best to give your baby. Here is what I know. Well, expressing of breast milk can be done in three ways: 1) hand, 2) using a hand pump (available on firstcry.com), 3) using an electrical pump (available on firstcry.com). If you get heavy milk supply it will be quite easy for you to express by hand specially in the morning. However if you find it difficult ask help from doctor or experienced people to teach you or show you in either of the above 3 ways mentioned. At times expressing by hand can also take a long time in this case the pumps are helpful. You must express your milk in sterilised bottle (available on firstcry.com), which can then be capped and stored in the fridge. Don't keep it longer than 24 hours. See that it's frozen as soon as possible. Melt frozen milk and use at once. Never refreeze. You can also keep it in fridge for 5 to 6 hours (in case u get a break and can rush home and get back to work)."
Sonal Maner shared her experience of returning to work when her daughter was just three months old, "Use an electric breast pump to extract milk and store in special sterilised bags in d freezer. Use Medela breast pump and bags, they are the best. You can store milk in the freezer for up to 3 moths after extracting, remove from freezer 45 mins before feed time and keep the bag/bottle in hot water so it can warm up. Do not open d bag/bottle until the baby is ready to be fed. I joined work wen my daughter was just 3 months and used to feed her extracted breast milk until she was 1.5 yrs." Medela Breast Pumps on FirstCry.com are available here."
Neha Gaurav puts in her useful tips, "You can use manual breast pump instead of electric one. After extracting milk you can keep it at room temp (27 degrees) for 4 to 6 hours in the refrigerator (towards the corner of tray) for 24 hrs in sterilised bottles only. After taking out the milk from refrigerator , keep the bottle in a pan of warm water for few minutes so that it comes to room temp. But make sure u do not bring the milk in direct contact of heat (gas flame)".
Noopur Agarwal also reminded us to instruct the care taker, "With an automatic breast pump you can extract all the milk in morning before going to office, then store the milk in sterilised baby bottles and refrigerate them. Tell the person who will be feeding the baby to take out the bottle half an hour before feeding the baby".
Radhika Varun Soni also reiterated the best method to store breast milk, "You can use breast pump of your choice n refrigerate the milk in sterilized bottle and warm the bottle in hot water just minutes before he is to be fed."
A lot of advice comes in the way of new moms, but the best ones are from peers who have been mothers themselves. Being a working mom can bring whole host of challenges, but it is also a really satisfying role to play.
We would also like to extend our thanks to the moms who came to Veena's rescue:
Sonal Maner, Noopur Agarwal, Radhika Varun Soni and Neha Gaurav.
My Newborn has Squint in the Eye! Should I Be Worried?
For about the first two or three months, a newborn's eyes tend to drift, wander and appear squint. This squint in newborn happens when the baby is tired or is trying to focus on something very close. However, by four months, babies develop a more-mature eye-hand coordination and depth perception. Thus, the off-kilter gaze, that's the cause of botheration for many new-parents, is put an end to.
Doctors are of the opinion that newborn squint of eye is a perfectly normal and common newborn characteristic. Most of the times than not, eyes of a newborn are not crossed, but appear to be crossed. This evasive condition happens because some babies are born with extra folds of skin along the inner corners of their eyes, which gives them the cross-eyed appearance.
Besides, there is a phenomenon known as 'pseudoesotropia', in which the baby looks cross-eyed because of the optical illusion caused by their flat nasal bridge. Have a look at your nose and compare it with that of your baby – you'll find yours to be bigger and more defined. You may ask, why is the nasal bridge of a baby flat? To make breastfeeding easier!
As always, we have SOS Moms helping you out with their share of experience.
At the outset, we have Parul Sharma Khatri, who says, "All kids are born that way. Usually, baby eye squint gets resolved within 2 months completely when the eye muscles develop."
Next, we have Anisha Rodrigues E Pinto, proposing her take, "Hi, at first even I thought the same for my baby. Then, later I read many books and I came to know that it passes off with time. To be out of tension, just get her eyes checked at your next visit to the doctor. Well, you have to be worried only if even by 3 or 4 months your baby does not move her eyes at a moving object kept in front of her face. For a newborn, please relax no need to worry, it will pass off with time."
Third, Chetana Suvarna Ganatra suggests, "It is very common in newborns to squint. I noticed that at times when my baby kept staring at something particular, her eyes would squint. I simply used to gently shut her eyes for a minute to shift attention. Hope this helps! However, I would also recommend you see a paediatric if it happens regularly."
Rajnideep Sandhu has a unique way of dealing with squint of eye in newborn. She says, "It happens. You just have to keep one thing in mind that don't let your baby see straight. Let the baby see more sideways and blink again and again or change the direction for another view. Good luck!"
So to say, don't worry too much about your newborn's squint eyes. Remember, most of the time this condition will straighten out by maximum six months of age without treatment. Here's to your baby's beautiful baby blues!
Lastly, we extend our thanks to the below mentioned SOS Moms as well for helping Mahek overcome her distress.
Shweta Srivastava, Vinu Gowtham Rao, Shipra Chaubey, Reema Monga Verma, Shilpi Saha, Paulami Shome Roy, Surbhi Sharma, Neetu Vishal Sharda, Robe Samarth Gaonkar, S Hashim Ali Khan, Rajni Kashvi Jaiswal, Asma Kapoor, Pooja Mishra, Grace Dcruz, Shraddha Upadhyay Desai, Naga Deepthi Vedagiri, Vidya Patel, Kamal Mahi, Madhusmita Mishra, Kiran Bobade Chatur, Ramya Shree, Vibha Sharrma, Vividha Aggarwal, Wenencia Savio Fernandes, Ritu Bhargava Sud
How Do I Stop my Toddler from Sucking Thumb
Roshini, a worried mom of a 17-month old toddler, says, "My daughter was a thumbsucker since the beginning -literally. Tucked away in my memories book is an ultrasound image of her's sucking her thumb to glory in the womb. Now, a year and a half later, she's still not ready to let it go."
The answer to Roshini's and other numerous moms' problem is rather straightforward. Thumb sucking is a very common reflex that kids engage in when they face a stressful situation. They do this to calm down, fall asleep or just to feel good. It makes them feel safe and comfortable. Also, most of the times, sucking thumb is considered harmless in terms of a child's growth and speech development.
Paediatricians from all over are of the consensus that as the kid crosses the two year age mark, they start developing other coping skills beyond thumb or finger sucking. They also purport that as long as the child stops the thumb sucking habit by the time he develops his permanent teeth, there would be minimal or no impact on his mouth and jaw."
One of our SOS Moms, Vandana Anand, mom of 2 kids, says, "Help your kid in resolving his thumb sucking problem and leave it to his will. Don't force! Give enough love and your baby will leave sucking his thumb".
Another SOS Mom, Rajnideep Sandhu, doubles up with Vandana Anand and says, "The main thing is when children don't get the proper attention, they develop such habits. So, just check if your child wants to say something to you, it's usually a big deal for them!"
We also have Meghna Kattimani who puts forth a different perspective to the problem.
She says, "Identify the triggers – If your kid sucks his thumb in response to stress, identify that triggering factor and provide comfort in other ways — such as a hug or reassuring words. You might also try giving your kid a pillow or stuffed animal to squeeze."
Lastly, Urvashi Patole proposes, "Maybe you can put a little garlic or any bitter tasting edible on your kid's thumb. Very soon he will stop sucking his thumb. However, adopt this method only when your kid has become a preschooler (3-5 yrs), but still continues to have this problem."
So you see Roshini, forcing is not the solution! In most cases, the kid automatically gives up the habit as he grows. There's no urgency to kick the habit this early, i.e. Before the child turns three.
My Toddler Stutters and Stammers! What Do I Do?
'Temporary Stuttering' is very common in kids between the ages 2 to 5. It normally affects two in every 20 kids. For many kids, it is just a part of learning the use of new words while putting them together to form sentences. It is usually seen that this stuttering and stammering phase outgrows with time and rarely persists into adulthood.
Let's first understand the reason behind why kids stammer and stutter. Experts believe that a variety of factors are responsible for this speech disorder to happen, genetics being the major causative aspect. It is seen that 60% of kids who stammer are bound to have either of the parents or a close family member who stammered in their childhood.
Besides genetics, some neurological factors are also responsible for the stuttering and stammering in kids. Research says that kids who stammer process language differently; as in there seems to be a problem with the way language is transmitted through their brains. However, they are not able to pinpoint why this occurs.
This time around too, our SOS Moms come to your rescue –
First, we have Anubhuti Seth Mehn, who says, "If your daughter is old enough to go to a play school, do that. Kids tend to pick up things with other kids at a faster pace. Or every evening make it a point to take her to a park where she can find other kids to play with. She'll build her diction there."
Another SOS Mom, Priyanka Tamhane says, "It's always better to take a speech therapist's expert advise. The doctor will actually guide you if it's a worrisome thing and will accordingly advise what needs to be done."
Mum, Shabnam Desai, proposes, "If it is the righttime then you should admit her in a play school. It helps to develop the language of a child. Secondly, there are cases where kids stammer due to stress and anxiety. It may be due to some reasons she cannot express what she wants to say. So please try to comfort her and talk to her, things will be better. Do not make her conscious about her stammering, that will make the matter worst. If she is older, then you should consult a speech therapist."
Anisha Rodrigues E Pinto suggests, "First don't make her feel uncomfortable or aware of her speech as wrong. Second, it's better to take advice from a speech therapist. Third, keep talking to her and don't focus on correcting. Fourth, let her socialise more often."
Lastly, we have Bizns Bizns, who says, "Please try homeopathy, works without side effects."
Also, there seems to be a connection between the kid stuttering and stammering and hefeeling tired, pressured, excited or upset. It also happens because their vocabulary is limited, i.e. They think faster than they can talk. So, don't point out her stuttering and stammering, and don't interrupt, it can worsen the condition, because it'll hamper the kid's self-confidence. And that's the last thing we want to happen!
How do I deal with my Clingy Toddler
By the age of two, children become independent enough to be walking on their own. As they develop this skill, is also when they regress and suddenly become clingy. They just want to be carried everywhere and throw tantrums when denied. It is at this point that the kid is torn between his independent impulses and the very compelling desire to be attached to the parent.
This is a difficult phase for the parents as well, because every sentence that the kid speaks begins with 'mom' or 'dad'. Every waking moment of theirs is spent carrying the clingy toddler until their biceps burn. To make things worse, in some cases, the other parent is not even allowed to help.
Research suggests that periodic clinginess is normal, and it's a sign that you and your child have a healthy relationship. However, the kid's waffling between the two extremes of independence and dependence is very taxing for both, the kid, and the parents. They are befuddled if they should give the kid a pat on the back and tell him to man up, or if they should simply accept the whole scenario as it is.
Again, we bring to you our SOS Moms whose suggestions are based on experience–
At the outset, we have Shabnam Desai, who suggests, "If you are a working mother, maybe the baby is missing you too much. Try to spend more time with your little one. Maybe the baby is afraid about something. Look around for signs if something is going wrong when certain people are coming near the baby, and not only people also check out the toys. Some kids are not comfortable with certain toys, especially soft toys because of the fur. Try to comfort the baby and please keep your cool or matters can get worse. Check whether the baby is teething or any other ailments and consult the doctor".
Next, Rajni Kashvi Jaiswal adds, "Because maybe now herecognises you as his parents, he has become clingy suddenly."
Mums, Jyot Kaur, Neha Singh, Shruti Singhal Garg and Sneha Agrawal collectively assert that teething may be the reason the kid has suddenly turned clingy. They suggest the use of 'Calcarea Phosphorica' as a solution for teething problem in toddlers. However, this needs to be done only after consulting a paediatric doctor.
Lastly, Chetana Suvarna Ganatra blames the kid's clingy behaviour to separation anxiety he may be going through.
A tip from our end; try to make walking fun for him and don't scold the kid. Remember, the kid has shorter legs, so he/she will take more time to cross the same distance. Also, keep the outings on foot brief and have a stroller ready as a backup plan.
What to do when your Kid is a Late Talker
Parents of late-talking children are always in a state of dilemma on whether they should 'wait and see' if the kid picks up speed in language development on his own, or if they should meet a speech therapist right away. Many of these parents are told not to worry as each kid develops at his/her own pace. Nonetheless, their gut instinct is always to seek help as they strive to do the best for their child.
The 'wait and see' approach for late talkers is borne out of a stereotyped observation about typical language development in children. While it is passable that children do develop at their own pace, there are certain age milestones that should be reached by a specific age. It is also true that there are many late talking toddlers who catch up on their own, a few do not.
In this write-up, when we speak about language delay, we aren't talking about language disorders or physical and developmental delays like Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Autism or those with childhood apraxia. These conditions require special kind of therapeutics and doctoring. We only speak about those children who seem to lag behind a little in their spoken (or "expressive") language.
Let's quickly go through what our SOS Moms have to say about late talkers –
Mum, Anima Bhardwaj, says, "Just one answer! Don't compare your kid to others for anything. Each child is different and develops differently. Just make sure that he is medically fit. If everything is okay, just relax. Some kids are late talkers… late walkers… late eaters… and so on".
We have Somita Suri, who suggests, "Depends on what you mean by 'doesn't talk very well'. Most kids develop at their own pace just like when they take their first steps. However, do look out for other signs in your child with respect to social behaviour, because it could be linked to autism."
Next, Julie Ekka Tanti proposes her viewpoint by saying, "Just like my kid who is four years old now, but doesn't show any signs of eating on her own. I have to force her for each meal! She doesn't chew and is used to swallowing. I'm pretty much worried, as kids of her age are fond of chocolates and so many edibles, but my child says no to all."
Shilpi Saha shows a different dimension of the problem by saying, "It depends on how much you all talk at home. If yours is a silent type of house, then give your kid some more time. Moreover, if your kid has completed other milestones and is okay in other behaviours, then don't worry, give a bit more time. My Lil' brother also had the same problem because our house was a silent kind of house".
Last, we have mums, Tanvi Nigam, Pooja Rathod and Noopur Agarwal, who collectively reinstate that parents should not worry about late talking in children. They jointly agree that things will take time and that parents should just have patience.
We conclude by saying that every child is unique in his/her own way and that parents should never compare their child with another child. Keep training your kid the requisite language skills and cherish that kiddish 'blabber'. Once it's gone, you'll miss it badly!
How do I get my Kid to Stop Bedwetting
Many a times, it is seen that even though the kid is toilet-trained in the day-time, he faces difficulty holding pee in for a long period at night-time, when he sleeps. Such toilet-training accidents happen due to various reasons, while heredity being a major contributor.
If the parents have had a history of bedwetting that continued until their ages of five or six, it is highly likely that the kid will inherit the same tendency. Other possible reasons include, not being developmentally ready to sense a full bladder or having a tendency to sleep so deeply, that responding to the bladder's signals and mastering night-time toilet control becomes elusive.
It is seen that bedwetting is more common in boys (about six to seven out of ten kids who wet their beds are male). Also, it is observed that by the age of five or six, 90 percent of the kids stop the bed-wetting habit on their own. Nonetheless, nobody knows for sure why the rest 10 percent continue to have a problem.
As always, we have our SOS Moms guiding you with a few bed wetting solutions
Shobha Suresh, a proud mum of two kids, says, "Stop scolding your toddler because they bed wet. They are just kids who don't know a thing. If we can't be patient with kids at our age, we can't teach them to have patience later."
While Somita Suri suggests, "Bear with him. Telling off a toddler is pointless as this is something out of his control and could cause anxiety problems."
Next, we have Meenakshi Srikantan, who says, "I think it depends on your child's age. If he is above two and a half, you can slowly reduce the liquid intake before sleep and also make him use the toilet before getting into bed. If you use an AC in your room or live in a cold place, then it is going to cause bed-wetting, despite doing everything until they learn to wake you up to use the toilet."
Meenakshi further suggests, "If you are really worried, I suggest you talk to your paediatrician regarding urinary incontinence. But maybe wait until he is a bit older, perhaps and like mentioned here, try training him to use the toilet at night at some interval."
Shantala Murugendra proposes her viewpoint by saying, "Few kids do it till the age of 10. So, better reduce liquid and cold intake at least 2 hours before sleep, but make sure they drink enough water at day time. And being a parent, it's our duty to keep an alarm and make them go to the toilet at night. Slowly their minds get trained to get up and go to the toilet at midnight."
Lastly, moms Georgina Jha, Pratibha Tyagi and Robe Samarth Gaonkar collectively recommend the use of a diaper for the kid and a rubber sheet to protect the mattress at night.
Make sure your child is ready for getting toilet-trained. Frustration on your part isn't the key here! Your child has to be motivated to stop the bedwetting habit. If he's not bothered, stick with disposable diapers until he's ready. He'll let you know when it's time.
Getting a Picky Eater Kid to Try New Foods
Food jag – a common eating behaviour where the kid only wants to eat one food item for every meal. More often than not, it's the toddlers and preschoolers who tend go on food jags and only like foods that are of a certain colour or texture. This behaviour is usually impulsive. At times, it can be so sudden that the kid would decide to hate even the foods they loved till one day prior.
Fries suddenly become their favourite 'vegetable'. Anything green is met with clenched teeth and a loathful face. Whining stops only when a dessert appears and chocolate comes to be considered as a separate food group. While this behaviour is normal, parents should deal with it patiently.
Research suggests that it takes at least 10 – 15 tries before a picky kid eats, or at least gets to like a new food. Also, the lost affinity for any food often returns after a gap of around a fortnight. Our point: Don't be pushy, but persistent in helping your child love new foods. Although it is a frustrating phase in your kid's development, understand that it'll get better with time.
Our SOS Moms share their opinions on dealing with picky eaters
We have Rajnideep Sandhu, who suggests, "Try to take your meals with your baby. Because I have seen that children always want to taste from others plates, though they make a mess, but it's OK with us.. Isn't it? "
Prabha Peri, mum of a 2-year-old, says, "Try to fill his plate with different food items neatly garnished and in colourful or attractive cups or plates.. Once he tries to taste a single item and if he feels it tasty, he will definitely start eating it.. I tried the same with my 2-year-old."
One of our SOS Moms, Pratibha Gautam, came up with a fantastic idea of mixing the kid's favourite food with the other food you want him to eat. This will disguise the new food in a way that your kid will down it chop-chop.
Last, we have Anima Bhardwaj, who says, "If he has started picking up food on his own and could eat it, try giving him finger food. Whatever you want him to try, make it in the shape of small balls or small sticks that he could pick up easily. Let him make a mess… Kids enjoy it! Just put the food in front of him and leave him alone with it. Don't sit in front of him or force him to eat… Let him take his time."
If you're very concerned about what your picky toddler eats, maintain a diary of all the food and drink items he has over a week. Make sure he has something from each of the four main food groups, i.e. starch/carbohydrates, proteins, dairy and fruits and veggies. If you know that he has eaten food from all these food groups, you shouldn't be worrying about his nutrition.
Sometimes, it's alright to allow the picky eater to choose foods that appeal to them. When averaged over several meals, you'll realise that they choose well. Trust those little bodies and discern that the child's world and his gastronomic horizons will expand as he grows and starts attending preschool.
How do I Resolve Sibling Rivalry in my Kids
In families with more than one child, sibling rivalry is commonplace. At the outset, you just see two kids fighting, however on looking beneath the surface of things, you'll realize the riposte feeling that is at the core of sibling rivalry in children.
Expression of retaliatory behaviour by the submissive one to counteract the sense of constantly being the victim of the dominant other, is what breeds sibling fights. This repugnant behaviour, clubbed with the feeling that he is loved less by his parents intensifies his pathos.
Nonetheless, for parents it is one of the biggest parenting struggles to sort. But it is upon them to turn the conflict scenarios into training opportunities. Parents should repeatedly teach their children to honour and speak well of one another.
When asked if parents should intervene in resolving sibling rivalry, one of our SOS Moms, Robe Samarth Gaonkar suggested, "Of course you should intervene and never let the time pass by without them consoling each other. It's just normal fights in the beginning, but if you don't correct them on time, then it will be worse once they are older."
We agree with Robe on this and feel that parents should help their kids sort the fights by making them understand the art of managing their emotions. Otherwise, the mutual ill feelings will get carried over into their adult lives and become even more crippling to deal with later on.
3 Suggestions for Parents when Managing Sibling Rivalry
- When you intervene, you should hold both the kids equally responsible for the fight. It shouldn't matter as to who started it or whose fault it is. After all, it always takes two to tango; a fight is never a one-sided affair, so stop refereeing.
- Use the 'step in to step out' method. Help your kids to identify their feelings at the moment of a fight (step in) and then leave them and let them work out a solution between themselves (step out). This is because, there will be times when kids would resolve the conflict in their own way and only need us to set up the navigation just a bit.
- Appreciate both the kids in their individual domains. Never pitch them up against one another. If one is good in sports and the other is a bookworm, recognize and appreciate their individuality.
Follow these few simple strategies, as you work with your kids to manage sibling rivalry and pioneer a peace treaty in your home today.
How to Get my Little One to Sleep in his Own Bed
Getting kids, especially those who have been sleeping with parents for more than a year, to sleep in their own beds is not easy.
We can say that it's sort of like ripping off a band-aid… The kid will cry, there'll be tantrums and a whole lot of havoc. However, you've to decide whether you'll transition quickly or will take your own sweet time.
Many parents typically opt to have their kids sleep on separate beds by the kid's will and desire. However, this can be confining for the parents, as the kid will keep growing dependent on the parents to get a night of peaceful sleep.
The key to establishing a workable bedtime routine is to set firm expectations and then maintain consistency. Before moving ahead with the decision, you should feel strongly enough for the mission of moving the kid to his own bed. Ambivalence over your decision will not help.
To make things easier for you, our SOS Moms are giving out a few suggestions–
"Make his best soft toy his best friend and sleep mate. Let him sleep with the toy and tell him that his friend (the soft toy) will be alone and cry if he doesn't sleep with him", recommends Swati Thakur, mom of a 1 year old.
Swati also says, "One more thing you can try is, when he's fast asleep just put a pillow over him at your place, so that he gets a feeling that it's you and not the pillow. Maybe that can help as it does help me and my son is only 1 year old."
Next, we have Neha Kapur, who says, "Put your T-shirt on a pillow and place it next to him… Sometimes, it's your smell that comforts them."
We also have Ranjani Anoop and Saheti Krishna Kasam, who have tested the methods suggested by Swati Thakur. They double up with Swati to say that the pillow method really works.
One useful tip from our end – think of the things that will offer some comfort to the kid during the transition. Play a CD of soothing lullabies, light a brighter nightlight or an LED projector lamp that'll create an effect of a starry night sky onto the walls and ceiling of his room.
So, be prepared for a bumpy ride while getting your kiddo to sleep in his own bed, but keep your eyes on the prize: an independent kid who sleeps all by himself and one less elbow in your back at night!
How to Handle a Teething Toddler
Teething toddler at home? It can be tough for both of you.
A few teeth make their lovely appearance in the front, by the time your baby celebrates her first birthday. So, it's no more a "gummy" smile now. But, this is not the end. There is teething, and then there is teething again – even more painful one this time! All thanks to those big molars that are all set to poke through the tender gums of your baby.
At around 13 to 19 months, molars start popping up. They are large in size, with double edges and can be twice as difficult to cut as the baby incisors. This may make your child miserable and irritable.
Let us have a look at some of the toddler teething symptoms you can keep an eye out for to offer best relief remedy to your child:
- Irritation on chin or cheek
- Red swollen gums
- Improper sleep and decreased appetite
- Constant rubbing of ears on the same side as the erupting tooth
- Drooling, biting and chewing
- Slightly increased body temperature but not fever
Ways to soothe your toddler's gums:
Give your toddler a frozen stick of cucumber or a peeled raw carrot to chew on. Be there with her while she is eating it to ensure that she doesn't choke on any piece she bites off.
To distract her from her discomfort, give her a cool spoon or a slightly frozen wet, clean flannel to chew on. They offer interesting textures.
A cool teething ring is also ideal. It is always recommended to use solid teething ring over liquid filled rings, which could leak.
Offer your child a cup to drink milk or water. Bottle-feeding and breastfeeding can be painful for a teething toddler as sucking causes more blood to rush to the swollen areas, making them more sensitive.
If nothing else works and your child seems to be in real distress, consult your paediatrician and give her the correct dosage of infant Paracetamol.
While you take all the efforts to soothe your toddler, remember, that you also need to be patient as teething takes a good amount of time to complete its process. Hence, you may need to pay extra attention and provide extra care to your toddler.
How to Handle your Child's Nightmare
Most parents come across experiences of hearing a sudden shriek in the middle of the night from their child's bedroom. When they rush in, the sight of their toddler – sitting up wild-eyed in bed, crying and trying to reach out for them leaves them greatly anxious.
Unless your child expresses in words that she has had a nightmare, it is difficult to understand what caused her this distress.
However, if your regular "peaceful sleeper" unexpectedly wakes up crying, behaves clingy and faces trouble getting back to sleep on her own, you can consider it the after-effect of a nightmare.
Nightmares are most common in preschoolers, as they develop some general fears and have vivid imagination at this age. They face difficult time separating reality from make-believe.
So how are you supposed to handle your child when she has a nightmare?
Let us have a quick look at what our SOS Moms have to suggest:
Ensure that the night-light of your child's bedroom is on
Keep the door of your child's bedroom open and assure her that you are near-by
Ensure that you give physical reassurance to your child when she cries. Hold her close to you and gently rub her back until she calms down and is normal.
If your child is old enough, speak to her and try to understand her fears. You might be able to figure out a way to soothe her in a better way when she cries.
"Never scare your child or never let her see or be in scary environment. Also, before sleeping let your child watch or hear lovely stories of her favourite cartoon character", says Shantala Murugendra
"Check if there is something that happens in the day that scares her. There may be some person whom she doesn't like. Encourage her to speak up and try to find out a solution to her problem", suggests Sanghamitra Sethi Kummera.
However, if the nightmares persist and she dreads going to bed or is fearful during the day too, do not delay to consult your paediatrician – such dreams could signal an emotional issue that needs addressing. Lastly, do not panic as this is very common among children of this age and will fade away with time soon.

Is it Normal if my Baby isn't Crawling?
Are you worried that your baby is not making moves towards crawling?
If your answer is YES, go on reading this.
Crawling is probably that first sign that shows that your little angel is on his or her way. Every parent eagerly awaits this moment. But sometime, some babies do not start crawling as early as other babies, which causes anxiety among most parents.
Though the average age for babies to start crawling is 8 months, many babies skip this age entirely and wait until later. The timing for certain milestone is quite variable, especially when we talk about gross motor skills. Also, there exists a wide range of "what's normal" when it comes to attaining developmental milestones.
So, even if your baby refuses the idea of scooting around on hands and knees, you should not panic!
The important point to remember is, crawling is just one milestone out of many and if your baby shows signs of delay in attaining it, it is most likely nothing to be worried about. It is only when your baby lags behind in a few developmental milestones that you should talk to your paediatrician about it.
Let us have a quick look at what our SOS Moms have to suggest:
"It is not something to worry if your baby starts crawling late. It's okay as long as she is active enough to explore new things. Try to make her sit for a few seconds everyday", says Swati Thakur.
"My son didn't crawl at all, he directly started walking from 11th month and so did I as my mum told me, so I guess it's pretty normal", says Deepti Khurana Mehta.
"Ensure that you massage your baby twice everyday with good massage oil, this helps in faster growth and better development of the baby", suggests Sakshi Abbey Bhatnagar.
"The best way to help your baby is, give her a lot of tummy time, at least 2-3 hours in a day with proper intervals in between. For tummy time – spread some bed sheets on the floor to make the surface comfortable but not soft for the baby. Then lay her down on her tummy. Now put some toys in front of her and encourage her to crawl ahead. This will tempt her to try to crawl and reach the toys", suggests Hema Shamjith Krishna.
As long as your baby is achieving other milestones well, there is no need to worry if she is not crawling even after 8-10 months. Understand that every child is different and thus, attain different milestones differently.
We thank all the Mommies of our community for sparing their precious time to give their valuable responses:

I worked at Isobar US full-time (Less than a year)
It's a huge agency, you feel that there are some awesome projects going on. If you are on a good account it can be great. There is a lot of talent there.
People are hired and fired as needed. Communication was a huge issue. The on-boarding process was a nightmare. I had no idea who I reported to really and it took my a while to figure out even who reported to me. They don't communicate about much and it is up to the employee to find their place in the organization. This can be really frustrating and looks bad in the eyes of Clients. They speak very poorly of their clients. I was astonished at how employees and management openly bad-mouth their clients—These are the people who pay the bills here and they should be respected! That behavior has impacted the culture at Isobar by its arrogance. Isobar has a superiority complex. The Executive Level Creative Directors are very hands off and don't do much real work, both internally and externally. Projects just go along without any real "nurture" so what matters is never addressed.
Advice to Management
Communicate with employees from the top to the bottom. Have a plan to notice, recognize top talent. Create a culture that respects the client in every way based on humility and caring about creating amazing work.

When I try to create a shortcut in the SendTo folder for all users in WiX, I receive the following error:
warning LGHT1076 : ICE91: The shortcut 'MY SHORTCUT NAME' will be installed to the per user directory 'SendToFolder' that doesn't vary based on ALLUSERS value. This file won't be copied to each user's profile even if a per machine installation is desired.
At the moment, I'm creating the shortcut as a non-advertised shortcut that exists as a sub-element of the File element that it references.
Is there a way to make this shortcut available for all users?
This article on SuperUser indicates that you can create a SendToFolder in all users, but I can't see how to do that from WiX.
Another article suggests that you can use the self-healing capabilities of MSI to make the shortcut re-install itself for all users, but unless I'm misunderstanding it, you need to use an advertised shortcut, and advertised shortcuts won't show up in the send to menu.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

YMMV: Tear Ring Saga
- Game Breaker: Shigen's personal sword, Dullahan, revives him with full HP whenever he gets killed. This is not a one-time thing, in fact, it can actually happen multiple times in the same turn, and the only downside is him losing his attacks in that combat. Basically, as long as the sword lasts he's immortal, and in a game with Final Death that's a really big deal. You can affortd to be a lot more reckless with him than you would with anyone else, hell, he functions as a pretty effective meatshield in a pinch. Just be careful not to use the sword too much early on.
- Narron, thanks to his Elite skill and his excellent promotion to Gold Knight, is almost guaranteed to become a powerhouse if you train him. Not bad for one of the first units you recruit.
- Goddamned Bats: The Opus/Ahriman (depanding on which translation you're going by) monsters take this Up to Eleven. They're weak, and have reasonably low HP, but decent Speed and a 'weapon' with 0 weight, meaning they're pretty hard to double and they double you surprisingly often. They can fly, so weak characters in the rear aren't safe, and they're probably going to get doubled too. But what's the worst thing about them? They multiply. Leave even a few alive and they'll become a massive swarm in the space of a few turns. Their King Mook form can even spawn more. (up to 4 per turn, which can still divide the turn they're spawned!) Did I mention you have to go through an entire chapter filled with them?
- There's also the Thief Sword toting Myrmidons in Map 26b. Anyone they so much as scratch loses one of their weapons. Forever. They can't steal *-ranked weapons, but equipping one woon't stop them from cleaning out everything else in your inventory.
- Guide Dang It: Recruiting Leteena involves doing several things over the first half of the game in specific ways that are never mentioned anywhere in the game. And once you do manage to get her in your party, she'll leave again anyway and take one of your characters with you unless you have a certain non-mandatory character in your party!
- Memetic Mutation: The "Blind Idiot" Translation has its fans, turning its rendition of Holmes into a Fountain of Memes.
- The Scrappy: Maerhen since he has low stats, and his burglar skill lowers the stats of nearby allies.
- Now that the semi-complete translation is out, it's safe to say this might be the case In-Universe too. The guy gets the Butt Monkey and Accidental Misnaming treatment even before you recruit him, and afterwards it's implied the 'lowering stats of nearby allies' thing is because they can't stand being around him!
