we need to know

2006-07-06 08:55:19 · 11 answers · asked by Anonymous in Adolescent

We have a bedtime routine.
I read 3 books before bedtime and say a goodnight prayer and sing a goodnight song.
The room is comfortable with a room darkening shade and a small night light and with soothing rain sounds of nature.
I have for months laid on the floor of her room for up to an hour and a half every night until she drifts off to sleep but my muscles are getting achy and this is putting a huge strain on the relationship with my husband.
If I try leaving her while she's still awake, I try telling her to stay in her bed, but it usually ends up taking about 2 hours of putting her back consistently and hearing crying the whole time. She gets into such a panicky cry that she acts like she is going to vomit.
PLEEASE HELP!! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

My son is worried about his penis size. He's 6.5 inches and 6 ft 4 in, he keeps on telling me that with his height, his penis should be much bigger. I don't know what to tell him.

My husbands 11 yr. old son just came to live with us a month ago. His mother basically got sick of dealing with his behavior and told my husband to take him. He is somewhat of a difficult child and we are putting him in counciling. He lies, has stolen from me 3 times(including money), cheated at school, etc. He doesn't seem to feel shame for the stealing from me, just mad that he got caught. I feel for him, cause I know he has not had a great life with his mom and step dad, and has always been labled the "bad child". Still, I find my self very frustrated with the whole situation and cant help wishing that I didn't have to take on this responsibility.

Who here buys into the theory that it's not bad for your child to get sick when they're toddlers because it helps build up their immune system, and by the time they start kindergarten, they won't constantly be sick and staying home? My sons' pediatrician told me this, and I don't buy it. There are SO many strains of the cold virus, flu, etc. out there. What are the chances my son is going to come into contact with the same cold virus twice? If he gets it, yes, he'll be immune, but the next person he comes in contact with who has a cold will more than likely have a different type of cold, so my son's going to be sick again anyway.

If your child was kept at home during infancy and the toddler stage and was rarely sick...when your child started kindergarden, did you notice him constantly sick and missing school? Same for those of you who have kids in daycare...since your child has probably had a few colds, was he mostly healthy during kindergarden?

I have a friend who is pregnant (so am I) - she doesn't know out of 2 fellas who the father is and doesn't want either of them to know or think they're the father until she knows. Can she do some sort of test that the father doesn't have to be invovled in? Eg.In the movies (serious query) they show the testing of DNA from a strand of hair? How can she get around this with causing trouble or her family finding out about it too - these guys have big mouths.

I haven't had my period for about a little over a month. Usually I'm pretty regular. But over the past 2 months have been way off w/ my period. A week ago there was some intercourse along w/ ejaculation unprotected w/ my boyfriend. Now for the past week, I have had a LITTLE bit of cramping here and there but what's real weird is that I think I'm barely bleeding. Just barely and it doesn't even look like a normal period would. When I say barely I mean not even really spotting. I'm confused, is this a pregnancy symptom? I'm planning on taking a prenancy test, but wanted some opinions to go along with it. Can you have symptoms this early? Thanks for any input.

Hi, I had my IUD (Mirena) removed on April 6 (3 months ago) and since then, at some stage I have fallen pregnant. I don't know dates yet though.
I'm just wondering, I'm already having discharge from my nipple & all the symptoms. From the discharge of the nipple indicate I might have fallen pregnant straight away...?

Also, does precum have sperm in it?
