My son has had night terrors for a couple of years. I have talked to his pediatrician, but I really just got the medical advice, not advice from a parent. He wakes up screaming and saying things that make no sense at all. He just came in here screaming "Moma, moma, please don't! Please let me go with you!" and he did it one time where he came in screaming and saying "I need two more!" (dont know what that was about) and even tried to run out the front door. Anyone else has a child that does this and to this extreme. He has these episodes about 1-2 times a month.

should I run, grab my other child, or leave them behind as bait (never know they could be infected too), should I call a priest, or kiss my *** goodbye??
Maybe I'm over reacting, theres no such thing as a bad child..right???

OHHHHMYGODDDDDDD!!!

A little background info...I'm 28 yrs. old, married with three kids, ages 8, 4, and 3 mos. I graduated high school ten years ago, and attended two quarters of college, where I did OK, but not great. I was only 17 when I went to college, and not sure if my lack of success was due to the sudden complete freedom or because I just wasn't smart enough.

I have always valued staying home with my children and have made it a top priority in my life, HOWEVER, we are living well below the poverty level, on food stamps, the whole 9 yards, and barely able to pay rent in the tiny 2 bedroom house that we live in. The power is about to be shut off on Monday because we couldn't afford to pay it...

This whole situation got me thinking...my husband dropped out of high school, and as a result will never have a job making good money, and I'm tired of seeing my children suffer from our financial problems.

If I can get grants to cover the costs, should I go back? Why or why not?

Canadian brands please. I've tried several different brands and they all leak poop up the back. I've tried Teddys Choice, Huggies, and the Walmart brand... what did you find worked the best.

I'm going into the high school, and I am currently wearing the only bra that I have, a too small training bra that my mom bought me when I was in fifth grade! I had it for four years! The thing doesn't even cover my breasts any more and it's embarrassing when I'm in the changing room for Gym and sports practice. It used to be white, but now, since I had it so long, it's a light brown color. When ever I put it on the front streaches a little. I tried to measure myself at home, and I found out that I'm a 32A, but I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate since I was doing it myself. Should I ask my mom to take me bra shopping, and if so, how should I do it?

i miscarried at 6 weeks on July 28th, my hcg levels were tested on Aug 1st, and were quickly very low(hcg was 9). I believe i ovulated between Aug 7th or 8th. Is that possible? to ovulate and concieve that soon after a miscarriage? if so are there any high risks associated with not waiting a complete cycle?

Last saturday I took a home pregnancy test and it was positive then sunday I started to spot really light blood that friday morning around 12:00am I woke up in pain with really bad cramps and heavier blood so I went to the hospital and they gave me a HCG and blood pregnancy test which detected that my hormone level was 100 and they both were positive but when they did my ultrasound nothing was found so they asumed that I was pregnant in my tubes so they did surgery on me to see and still nothing was found now they say it's either two things and that is that my pregnancy is too early to detect or I had a miscarriage but I thought if you had a miscarriage your blood test would read negitive and a HCG pregnancy test would still read positive as far as a couple of weeks after the miscarriage but they both came back positive. So does that mean I'm still pregnant and it's just too early in my pregnancy to see it on my ultra-sound?
