things more better off ppl have? But if you boast about having money then its insulting.
Like a friend of mine who isnt as financially fortunate will knock my stuff like my new cooking set, or new furniture or whatever.
So annoying, nobody can be happy for anyone other than themselves.
Or when I get my kid new shoes or clothes, she'll say "go to value village" or 'thats crazy" I dont say your kids clothes are ugly.

Actually it's my daughter. I think it may be hormonal, because of puberty. She is attracted to girls and guys, old and young. It seems as if everything turns her on. I saw this happening to a pregnant woman, so that proves the hormone idea. What do I do?

My 10 month old developed a rash this afternoon on his tummy. It's now spread to his back, his shoulders and his neck. It is not on his arms, legs or butt. We are thinking it may be heat rash (it is 114 degrees today), but with him not taking a lot of fluids and not being hungry is making us wonder. There is no fever but he's really fussy. Any ideas?

Hi, I have a 6 yrs old son and a 20 month old daughter, we are leaving this Friday for vacation, it will be about an 11 hour drive. Any ideas on how to keep them happy and entertained? Also what are the best things to take to eat and drink on a long drive like that. I have a few toys I plan to take and I have a portable dvd player but does anyone else have any other ideas, this will be a super long drive for them. We do plan to stop a few times but not for long periods. there is a total of 20 family members following each other, so we will not be able to just stop if they are getting bored with the ride. any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

First name :: Nathan
Middle name :: John Paul
Last name:: not optional :)

We are thinking Nathan after the prophet in the Old Testiment. Nathan means (I think) God gives.

Our two living grandfathers are named john and paul, so we thought we might combine the two into a single name. Only coincidentally the same as the late pope.

We've also thought about only using John or Paul, which would you choose? What do you think sounds the best? Thank you for constructive input!

I am 7 weeks pregnant and unfortunately went to the doctor a few days ago due to vaginal bleeding and cramping. The doctor informed me that the fetus was not alive and that it would abort itself within a day or two. This has yet to happen and I cannot take the stress or waiting any longer. Can someone please tell me how to help this process along? Is there home remedy or something that I can eat or drink to get it over with? Also, I would like to try for another baby as soon as I can...How long should I wait before trying again? Thanks for any help and suggestions.

2 1/2 yr old foster boy always wants to watch Dora the Explorer, Go Diego Go, Blues Clues etc the whole time we are home. He will play during this also but when I tell him it is our turn to watch a show the adults would like to see, he pitches a fit and says " I dont want to watch that", "It's my turn" etc even though he has been allowed to watch his show for an hour or two. I suggest playing a game, toys, read a book etc, but he just cries and even with time out will then continue to complain/ cry during our turn at TV. Or even when I jsut want him to redirect to another activity. What can anyone suggest to help resolve this problem? All serious thoughts appreciated!

Hi all .

My daughter is 13 months old now and she sleeps in the cot with a soft teddy bear. Often when my Wife and I check in on her she is asleep with her head resting on the teddy bear acting as a pillow. My question is at what age should we give her a pillow to use, would it be safe at this age now?
I only ask as you all know how uncomfortable it is to sleep without one and I am wondering if it would be benificial to give her a pillow now.

I am a first time parent and would be grateful for any help

Last year my son was in 3rd grade. He was really bad about not turning in homework obviously during the last semester, because during the last semester his report card would be really bad and when I called his teacher she would tell me he was missing alot of assignments. He would also have disapline marks on it as well. She would never address these with me ahead of time so that I could deal with the situation before it affected his grades and report card. It seemed to me that after not turning in papers for a week or so, she would have contacted me. But she waited until about 3 days before the end of the six weeks to tell me he was going to fail the six weeks if he didn't do about 15 assisgnments in 2 days. I wonder if I should address this with his new teacher to make sure she tells me early on if my son is doing this again, instead of waiting to the very end of the six weeks

old son has longer hair, curly. He wears boys clothes THAT look like boys clothes and wears BOYS shoes that are clearly not for girls.
Yet some really stupid ppl think he is a girl, even after calling him a he.
Do you get this if you son has long hair...I wonder if Kate Hudson has to deal with this.
