My son is going into 2nd grade. The past weeks I try to get him to write his ABC's and #'s 1-10. But he cryes and refused to do it. . I try to bribe him or play school. He's been at my sisters for a week & same thing, he cryes.He is a very smart & happy kid but very active. Kindergartden & 1st grade teachers wanted him on ADHD meds so we tried Ritalin, Adderall, Straterra& Concerta. None worked & made him hyper & mean and this past June he ended up in the hospital for rapid heart beat (was on Straterra) so he is not on ADHD meds. except for Clonidine @ bedtime to help him sleep. He can write them I've seen him. I can't imagine this being a game he is playing. Why is he acting this way? He is not in therapy at this time. I am dredding homework when he starts school.

My doctor wants to induce me on wendsday but i want to be induced naturally. I heard about castor oil and the diahrea you get from it but is it harmful to the baby. and i also heard about parsley tea that it helps stimulate contractions but i also heard when used during early pregnancy its for abortion. so i really dont know which one is safe. oh by the way i will be 41 weeks.

I have been looking online for some info but can't find any. My daughter who is 7 and a half months old just developed some little red bumps on one side of her bottom...I changed her diaper about an hour ago and they weren't there so they just appeared. She hasn't had any other symptoms of sickness and has never had diaper rash before so I don't know what diaper rash looks like. Do you know of any websites that would be helpful? Or do you know what this could be besides diaper rash?
When I last looked at it it seemed to be clearing up a little.

I have not dialated any and my baby is head down. When you induce labor with no dialation, does it take longer? What are the chances of the medicine not helping me to dialate? Has anybody else had this problem? ~Patiently waiting....

I was with my sons's father 6 monthes and I got pregnant, he later dumped me and kicked me out when I was 5 monthes pregnant, stating he didnt love me and wanted to go date other women. We still saw each other alot, he showed up for the delivey and ended up watching our son so I could go back to work being that he was unenployed.I was hoping that we were going to work it out. He got me to add him to my insurance and never paid me, has never paid child support and he was still constantly insulting me. I put up with it b/c I still loved him. he ended up starting to seriously date his good friends daughter who I know well and is 12 years younger then him. heart broken, I booked a well earned trip to Mexico and he agreed to watch him while I was gone. Our son is now 4 monthes old and I called him Friday after work and he told me that as of now he is no longer watching our son his girlfriend may help and I dont like that then I need to figure it out. Now I am worried I will lose my job.

I have a 6 year old son who has a brain-block when it comes to learning numbers. Straight memorization is excruciating for him, so I need some fun ways to help him learn (11-30). Any ideas would be appreciated. Serious answers only please.

Johnny's are socks from Trumpette. They are really soft, yet a bit expensive. I just want to know if people feel if they are worth the cost.

Ok.. so my story is that i've been trying to get pregnant and so far my period IS late.. but only by about a week.. i really dont feel it either, maybe on and off i get the cramps but thats it. Sometimes i feel bloated, and i've recently started eating Alot, even when im not really that hungry. I gained about 5 pounds or so recently too.. I've tried taking pregnancy tests but they've all said negative.. i dont really have any symptoms either.... just headaches and backaches here and there.. so im just wondering if there is a chance i could still be pregnant even though the test says no...

I've read some answers to other people's questions about this. But it seems to be mostly women answering. So I just wanna know guys opinion on this. I'm a little nervous to have sex if it's going to be really loose.
