    Too much to ask to eat just a little at a meal?...

    Sawyer pushes his luck sometimes, and will scream and say I don't want to eat that. I just ignore him and he doesn't eat. Eventually when he realizes hes not getting any attention or being given what he wants, he will eat. Then I give him lots of praise 'i'm so proud of you for eating that, good...

    1st and 2nd graders looking at colleges already....

    I guess there's nothing wrong with it, it just seems kinda pointless! I didn't even decide what Degree I wanted to do until I was 16, so is there really any point asking an 8 year old what they want to do with their life. When I ask Kayla she says she wants to be in High School Musical :p

    thumb sucking...

    My 4 1/2 year old still sucks her thumb and I'm fine with it. She only does it when shes tired or upset. Her teeth are fine, shes destined to have bad teeth anyway, mine were horrendous lol. If hes still sucking it when hes starting secondary school then ok maybe then I would be worried but...

    VERY SERIOUS issue... I need help\advice BADLY....

    If you and your wife split then thats fair enough, but please don't just take your son and run. Your kids deserve to see both parents regardless of what you think of each other. Its great to see someone take on another mans child for his own. If you are who she knows Daddy as, then I would say...

    Terminating parental rights...

    Thankyou. I am worried about him refusing to do it, but at the end of the day, he hasn't been there for his kids and like you said fallon, they deserve better. I'm worried too about Sawyer coming to me one day and asking why he never got to meet his real Dad. Hopefully he'll realize I'm...

    Terminating parental rights...

    I thought I would let you all know, I have decided to ask my ex to terminate his parental rights to Evie and Sawyer. He hasn't seen them now since January, and I haven't had a penny from him since then either. By him doing this, it would also mean that DH could legally adopt them as his own...

    When should I allow my Teenage daughter to wear a thong?...

    I remember I bought a thong in secret when I was 13, hid it from my Mum and used to wash it in secret so she wouldn't know. All my friends had them and I wasn't allowed. She found it and took it off me till I was about 16. I don't think I will allow my daughters to wear thongs until they are 16...

    Why it is Important to plan your Family...

    All my children have been amazing blessings, and only Beau was planned. The only time I ever struggled slightly was as a single mother, but even then, it was certainly managable. I have never been on benefits (apart from the children support from the government, which everyone gets). I do...
