    Help Please!...

    His mother only helps once in a while but then she does it for him. The problem is he lies and says he doesn't have homework. Then it's, oh I forgot. I don't have to be concerned any longer though. I told his mother they have to move out and that I won't tollerate this stress in my life. Now I...

    Snacks...

    When I say snack, I mean garbage, junk, zero nutritional value food. All sugars and carbohydrates. I don't eat this stuff (lost 40# for over 1 year) so I don't buy it. I know all kids like candy as such but come on, I think the kids think they are entitled to this "snack" all the time. I don't...

    I recently read an article about some pit bulls killing a child....

    I had a 30# female pitbull and a 55# male pitbull. Wish I still had them. They were great with everyone, except some dogs. My brother and sister have pitbulls as well and they are the best dogs to have in a family. Very tollerant but stuborn to others.

    Guilty Mom...

    Lunchables are marketed for children. Whenever my daughter asks me to get some, I just say no and walk past it. Then we go home and make a better tasting lunch from the deli meat, cheese crackers I just bought at a fraction of the cost. I don't feel guilt. I just buy what we need.

    How and when do you let your kids spend money?...

    I let my daughter take some money, in her purse, to buy something at the store once in a while. She has money from birthdays and such that I put into her savings account so this is money she gets from grandpas and grandmas. Mostly without me knowing but, it adds up. Anyway, I explain to her how...
