She's in 5th grade, running against four other girls (including a teacher's pet and somebody very popular). Based on my understanding of the social structure at school, she's going to come in third. I'd appreciate any input as to how to improve her chances of winning.

I recognize that it will be a learning experience for her either way. I'm not being super-competitive about this, I'd just like to give her the best chance she can have. Thanks!

My son is 28 months old. He goes to bed by 11.00 pm only. He wakes up at around 8 am. His daytime nap is around 1.00pm, for 1.5 - 2 hours. Do you think this much sleep is sufficient for him? I feed him the dinner at around 7.00pm, but still he is very active and energetic even around 11.00pm. How can I adjust his routine so that I can make him sleep by around 9.00pm atleast?

Thank you.

This is a morbid question, but does anyone know of a chld who was hurt or worse when co-sleeping with an adult? I am terrified of suffocation. We use NO pillows and no fluffy bedding, and we never drink or anything like that. I am still worried !!!

how do you control an unruly step child if the mother is to tenderhearted to spank the child due to fear of being a bad mother? he sceams at her, tells her what he is gonna do, wont eat what we eat( he has to have what he wants) and will cry and scream if you raise your voice to him! please help me end my hell!

Should I rely on a strict regiment of daily spankings, you know, same time, same place, everyday, that sort of thing....OR....would it be better to catch them off guard with more sporadic and random beatings?

We have a 5 month old son, and he slept with us for a while because I was worried about SIDS, then my hubby and I just never wanted to be in another room from him, so we contimued to let him sleep with us. YES, people, I know many of you don't beleive in this. That's fine - I'm not sure I do, myself. But, nontheless we ARE, and I just want to know from others who have done it what they would do differently, or when it should stop, etc. Please don't tell me what a loser I am for letting him sleep with us. Like I said - I am not arguing for it or saying it's best - we just happen to be in the situation and are wondering about others.

I have worn dress shoes and loose fitting shoes and I don't have problems with swelling and today I wore my athletic tennie shoes again and I can feel my feet swelling up. I am just curious if it is possible or if it's just ironic that they are swelling everytime I wear them.

Hello, we have been trying for a baby since October, we were using condoms before that. I have been feeling so tired, by breasts are sore, and they have colustrum in them. Went out for dinner on Sunday and couldn't eat all my food, just felt full and bloated, very uncomfortable actually. I am due on tomorrow, I did a test last night, which was negative, could I still be pregnant?
Thanks Vicky
