    He is finally here/Question about co-sleeping!...

    Thanks for all the suggestions so far! As far as a co-sleeper goes, we have one because that would have been fine with us. He will not go for that though he has to have himself right against us. Which I think drives me a little extra crazy because I am still sore and have staples in my...

    He is finally here/Question about co-sleeping!...

    I was due with my first June 24th, he finally came out July 5th, 5:11 am after 55 hours of back labor, 2 1/2 hours pushing and finally a last minute csection! He was 22.5 inches and 10 pounds 11.6 ounces! Except for a slight water seal in one testicle which the doctors say usually resolve...

    Unique situation, advice needed...

    Sadly that is still the world we live in. Many people still get stuck on the gender in a relationship instead of looking at the relationship for what it is. It has become much better, I remember just 14 years ago when I came out as pansexual and how hard that was, hopefully it keeps getting...

    Posting for research! Please read....

    I want to know why both of my 17 year olds are incapable of saving themselves from the fire? I mean that is basically an adult.... What would they do a year later when they no longer have me? >.>

    In Need of Clarity...

    Also I should add that even after it starts to change, it will never go away completely probably. Even though my boyfriend and I are a team, a family and we always want our child to know that... I still say things like "I will always be there for you" not "we will always be there for you"...

    In Need of Clarity...

    If you have talked to him already, and you know he does not feel that way then I would say just give it time. This is not meant to be offensive but this is all a newer thing, and nautural speech does not change over night. I know a year and a half might feel like a long time to you, however you...

    I'm new and here's my view......

    I agree that I think you are just trying to start trouble. Also you are wrong they did answer the question, they would save whoever they had the best chance of saving. That is not a smokescreen, it is the way the world works... It is 100% impossible that you would have equal chance to save...

    We had a frustrating incident today...

    That is horrible! I will always get stuck with Easter dinners because family is important to my boyfriend, and his very large family is very into that sort of thing. I however do not believe in or celebrate Easter and would hope that when my child is older they would respond so wonderful and...

    Unique situation, advice needed...

    I know a lot of people seemed to think she should take the opportunity, however you said her parents have done a lot of traveling already. When parents move or travel a lot it often leaves children no matter the age longing for the opposite. I know at 26, I still just crave and have this deep...

    Teen Daughter & Self Maintenance...

    1. Video games are not evil. Anything in life can be "addictive" under the right circumstance with the right person. Blaming these things holds people back and only makes things worse. If someone wants to be happy, healthy and "normal" it is really simple.... Learn from everything you do in...

    What are some of the "special foods" in your family?...

    Rice treats and dill pickles... Spears works better than slices since they are still juicy!

    I'm half way there...

    It has been awhile for me, so I might be wrong since I am no longer religious... However if memory serves me correct many people believe that it is something you are suppose to do, to strive to be like god. To always work at overcoming their flaws and show those positive qualities. So if that is...

    Things I have learned......

    I learned recently that the formula you can find online of 16oz hydrogen peroxide, 1 tablespoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon dishsoap works wonders on animal stains! We have a small bathroom that was used as a cat bathroom before I moved in.... Which would not have been so bad but the previous...

    Megan would like your help......

    1. Yes 2. I think it is a bad idea, we already have laws for immigration. Yes there is the argument that we are all immigrants, however most of our parents, grandparents, great-grandparents or what not went through the process... Why can others not do it as well? 3. No, I would not support it...

    Food Police...

    Most healthy food is not actually very expensive compared to junk food it just appears that way. People see stuff like 2.99/lb for a fruit or such and think it is expensive, break it down though, that apple or whatever is usually 40-50cents. Then you add on top of that the fact that healthy food...

    I wish I could get through to her......

    You said she views school as a social thing, so maybe you could try taking it from that side. Find an activity she would really be interested in and that is social for her after school or in the evenings whatever works best for your family. She will then have a different social outlet and one...

    Showering advice needed...

    While pregnant did anyone else have an extreme discomfort with water temperatures? If so how did you deal with it? Warm water of any sort makes me light headed, nauseous, faint, and/or even vomit. Cold water... Well who likes cold water? It is like ice needles and makes me miserable, but I seem...

    opinion on speaking up when hurt...

    Was she really a friend or was she an acquaintance? Did you really take the time to think out the best way to talk to her or did you react out of hurt? I agree with singledad if you are expecting an apology, or doing it out of revenge it obviously is not right. However in most cases if you...
