    Do you do your own taxes?...

    I've always done my own taxes. Haven't had a problem so far. It is getting a bit more complicated however now that I have a home-based candle business.

    What are the top 5 songs on your Ipod/8 track collection for you old farts....

    I don't have an IPOD. I still use CDs or just listen to the radio. I like most anything form the 1980s and I also like oldies from the 1960s & 1970s.

    Too many restroom breaks at a restaraunt....

    My daughter did this when she was little. It was more because she was curious about the bathrooms and gave her something to do while she was waiting for her food. Now she avoids public restrooms whenever she can!

    Working out of the home/school?...

    I have always worked outside of the home. After my 2nd I was working part-time for a while until my marriage failed when my girls were 6 months &amp; 2 years. Then I had to find full-time work. I would have loved to have been able to stay home with my girls when they were little. The hardest...

    parenting is DISGUSTING!...

    I must have been one of the lucky parents - my girls never pooped in the tub. :D No real gross stories either. Any vomit usually hit the floor, maybe once I remember it being in my daughter's bed.

    home birth...

    I had mid-wifes for both of my children's birth - at a hospital though! A physcian on-call was there if needed. But I don't think it should be a law that women can't have babies at home. Think back to times when women gave birth to babies all the time in their home. Risks were greater than, it...

    I'm new at punishment and don't know what to do....

    I think your punishments were good ones. He is under 18 and he still lives at home. He needs to know that as long as he is under your roof there will be consequences for his actions. Do realize that mistakes will be made and perhaps try to talk to him to see why he likes this girl so much and...

    MySpace - what are your thoughts?...

    Do you have teenagers who use MySpace? What are your thoughts on this? Do you monitor at all? I do not let my girls use this, as far as I know they are not! Our one computer in the home is in the living room where everyone usually hangs out. I was just looking at some feedback on this as I was...
