I got that too and almost replied but i saw under his name to the left it said banned so that's how i knew it was spam. Jessica http://www.greatestkidsgames.com/

I would say this happens for two reasons: 1) Parents ARE being too overprotective OR 2) The people giving the suggestions are the type that are trying to be friends with their kids rather than parents. The second option is most likely because our country has gone into chaos in terms on...

First of all, don't break up with C just because your 5yr old daughter. YOU are the parent, YOU are the adult and YOU make the decisions. Once you let kids make the calls you're a goner. Honestly, I think it's a case of jealousy. She's threatened by C now because you care about her. Your...

My family speaks Polish & English but I think he should have done it in English. I wouldn't have wanted my kid to go up there speaking Polish just for me! I think that's selfish when the majority of the people wouldn't understand it. He could have said it at home to them or even had it on a...

Honestly, I'm really into gender roles but only because that's what makes me and my husband happy. I don't think everyone should or needs to conform to anything at all ! I like being a stay at home mom and cooking, cleaning, etc. My husband goes to work but that doesn't mean he know how to...

I can relate! My MIL is a *&%! and she ruins EVERYTHING. When my husband and I got engaged she flipped out, when we got "legally" married for convenience for lower rent before the actual wedding she flipped out, and now we're expecting a baby she says we're going to have to go on food stamps...

Just be honest with her. Ask if there is a time you can speak with her, because dropping in whenever you want is not the best idea, (I'm a teacher and it's very inconvenient) and then just ask what her criteria is. There is nothing wrong with you inquiring about your child's status, it's...

Hi, I also feel that spanking is not a solution and it is out of the question for teenagers. I mean a 15 year old boy is just going to bend over and accept that? I know mine wouldn't and I wouldn't want them to. Twelve is still unacceptable to me. Try grounding or taking away games, tv, etc...

This is a sticky situation indeed. I got along well with my step mother who was also in my life since that young age. My mother wasn't against her really, but was a bit jealous because of the second mother aspect that a stepmother brings. One thing I highly suggest when she plays the "Your...

Great to get know you :) I'm sure you will enjoy the forums ! Welcome!

<U>To clear things up</U> in terms of only having relationships with people that benefit you. I mean making sure you're in a healthy relationship. I certainly am not suggesting being friends with people just to 'get things out of them' like money, rides, favors, etc. No, that <I>IS</I>...

<U>This is the way that I see teen sex: </U> Nature created us to begin to be able to reproduce young, and not that long ago it was normal for women to get married nd even have kids young. It was a tragedy if you were 20 and not already married with a few kids. Given this fact, we need to...

My suggestion is to visualize your daughter. 1) Choose a girl name and talk to her 2) Imagine rocking her swaddled in a pink blanket 3) Picture your hospital room filled it's a girl balloons, pink stuffed animals and flowers. The more you FEEL that it's a girl, I believe is what makes a...

Well sometimes Baptism by fire is the only way. ;) <U> I suggest the following:</U> 1) Stop &amp; take a deep breath. It's so often suggested but it works. 2) Walk away if you can to collect yourself. 3) Ask for help from your husband. If he's around ask him to take over the difficult...

Well hello, welcome! How about you tell us three things you love about being a parent and three things that are hard about being a parent. :) Be well, Be at Peace, -Jessica http://www.greatestkidsgames.com

This is a very hot topic in general and here is my suggestion if you want to stop. 1)Find a pattern by writing down the times you felt you had to spank. Were there times when similar things happened and you didn't need to spank? What did you do then? 2) Your profile says that your kids are 9...

Congrats! Just remember this little quote though: "Work to live, don't live to work." Which means make sure you're life doesn't become your work and that you do what makes you happy, not everyone else. :) Be well, Be at Peace, - Jessica http://www.greatestkidsgames.com

I think with a situation like this <I>consistent time outs</I> may work best. Whenever he does something like that you tell him it hurts and not to do it but then when he doesn't listen I'd put him right in a corner. Your call on how long, I'd maybe do two minutes for a four year old (although...

I am a CRAFT FANATIC and am SO glad you want your child to do crafts! You can get appropriate supplies at any craft store or contact me for alternative materials. Activities really do depend on age but here are some ideas: 1) <I>Decorate a picture frame</I>: All you do is buy a blank wooden...

I don't just pick them up when I'm already angry or frustrated, I do so before it gets to that point because the child can't be in control of you. Once they do, it's over.
