    Nebraska law unintentionally leads to spate of teen abandonments...

    You know what's funny about that is how hard it is to get help if you don't know how to work the system. When I was in serious crisis, I tried to get help. The place I called told me to move in with a relative. I said I didn't have any. the woman asked why I was living in that town then...

    2 year old missing 5 weeks Mom never reported it...

    while it's pretty likely that you are right, and there is no acceptable reason, there is always a VERY, VERY slim chance that she had nothing to do with it and is either protecting her from somebody or knows what happened to her and is terrified because threats or something have been made to...

    Pumpkin symbol marks sex offenders' homes...

    I don't know if a PUMPKIN is the best symbol to use. here, the downtown businesses put paper pumpkins in their window if they are giving out candy. And how many kids are actually reading signs as they run from house to house???? I also agree with Christian. There are some with that label...

    Momma's Boy??...

    Mine's always been a bit of a clinger. I often commondeer one of the couches at night with the laptop and the stuff I am working with. He has to be glued to me, and eventually ends up on lmy lap w/o fail. He has the master bedroom, but won't play in it, because I am not there. I don't know...

    How well did your parents raise you and do you want to emulate them?...

    no. My son will never get teh kind of parenting (or lack thereof) that my life consisted of. Not even in the same planet.

    Intimacylessness...

    ???? seriously? Is it the same guy you've been with on here? You guys seemed like a great pair... I know I've been gone for a while, but did I really miss that muc?!?!?!? On a bright note - at least Eli is trying at a year. Ry didn't until he was 3. I can count on one hand the number of...

    Daughter doesn't seem to like me much. :(...

    ohhh.... reading the first post brought tears to my eyes (yeah, I'm a big baby), but the follow up post was even more heart-wrenching! I'm guessing it's a phase also. Girls at the core are often daddy's girls. Give her time and always try to be the man that you would like her to someday find...

    GERD and seizures?...

    It stands for gastroesophageal reflux disease. Acid reflux. It's pretty common... just not the seizure part... Poor little guys only 3 months old

    GERD and seizures?...

    Has anybody every heard of this? My friend's baby had a couple seizures one day, and after spending time with specialists, neurologists, etc, she was told it was because he had GERD. I know that's not typical GERD, anybody heard of this before?

    Use of fan in the room reduces risk of SID by 72%...

    anything to help is always good to know - one of my kids at work just had a SIDS loss in the family :( So sad. I'm curious though - the article says something about overly warm rooms - does it make a difference if you keep the temps cooler? It's my understanding that a baby's room should be...

    Focal Seizures - Any Experience?...

    hmmm... never heard of it. I've worked with clients with grand mal and petit mal seizures, but they were all adults, so I guess I wouldn't have had reason to be exposed to that variety. It's too bad he has to deal with it at all, but it's got to be a relief to know it won't last forever...

    Do you do your own taxes?...

    why or why not? I do, because mine's pretty simple... my g'father owns a tax business and has been trying to get me to go into that field for years (he makes pretty good money). I started taking the class a few weeks ago, and can definately see why some have theirs done - it can get really...

    Custody Battle Update...

    I'm sure all were dying for an update of the mess I call a life! Had our final court date the other day. Mr Wonderful started in with all of the usual bizarre lies and I just sunk in my chair, thinking this judge was going to buy into his BS as everybody else has... So after his testimony, the...

    life regrets...

    I have 2. THe biggest one is that I returned to Indiana for the benefit of my ex after I'd gone back to Wisconsin. I should have stayed where I was, and it has ruined my life and risks causing serious harm to my son. the second was when my mom was dying... her breathing pattern changed and I...

    Vindication!!!!!...

    exactly. because he likes to create a damn if you do, damned if you don't situation. The first time I DON'T let him know something he decides he should have known, he'll throw a tizzy - yet he's refused to provide info about exactly what he does want to know.... if I put it all on line, he...

    Vindication!!!!!...

    A few months back, I said something about putting info on a website so I didn't have to deal with the psycho ex (against whom there is a restraining order). I got a reaction that greatly suprised me. But yesterday, THAT was EXACTLY what my attorney told me I needed to do. I did not mention...

    How should I tell my VERY religious parents I am pregnant?...

    I think it's easier said than done. It's just natural to be concerned about your parents reaction. My son was born outside of marriage - not to mention this father is a lying pathetic snake who wasn't really divorced (where his wife thought he was all night every night is beyond me). But his...
