How do you feel about parents that buy clothes for children as gifts if the child is not into the fashion yet ? It's almost like this sort of "gift" is not a gift at all..it's a necessity. I'm talking about the average child with average interests in the average middle class family.

I remember as a child (Under 10), I would get clothing for birthdays and holidays and I look back and think that clothing would have to be purchased anyway but parents try to disguise clothing as a Christmas present. Thats not what I wanted!

How long will it be until I stop bleeding? And how long before the pain goes away to the point where I won't need the painkillers anymore?

I have written quite a few questions regarding this and here is one more, thanks for being patient with me. I had a miscarriage in July, my Dr found no heart beat on the 5th ( I was supposed to be 12 weeks but only showing 6 or 7 in size) I started bleeding on July the 14th and bled for about 2 weeks. Then I had a normal period starting on 08-18-06 and before my miscarriage I always have had normal cycles of 28-30 days apart. I have heard that after a miscarriage your cycles can be mixed up, I am now on day 32 since my last period ( after trying this month to get pg) by the way I had a natural miscarriage no D/C and my dr saw me on 07-17 and Ultrasound showed all tissue was gone, how long should I wait to do a pg test? I am anxious but dont want to get my hopes up.

I have been trying to convieve for about a month and half. My last period was August 11th and I have not had one since. I had a blood test taken last Wed. and it was negative. This week I'm experiencing a little more vaginal discharge and have all the early signs of pregnancy (sore nipples, abdominal bloating, fatigue, etc) which I know can come right before you start your period. I'm just curious if anyone has experienced a little more discharge before they found out they are pregnant??? I know it's a possibility my period could just be regulating itself (so it could come late) due to the fact I just stopped the pill in July, just curious.

when i went to go pick up my kid (6), his teaher was outside and had briefly remarked about how my son had a lilttle sharing problem in school that day. so when we got home, i asked him if he in fact had a sharing problem in school today and he said "yes, mommy, none of the kids wanted to give me their stuff!" i've tried to explain sharing and tried teaching him when he is around hi younger cousins but he just doesn't get it. i mean, its not that hard, is my kid so hard headed to understand or is he just mean?

Ok, this might be a little long. Here goes:

My FIL wants to keep my 4 month old son overnight. My husband is basically trying to badger me into doing it. My problem is this. This man has seen his grandson maybe 3 times since he was born. I also have a 6 year old son, who has yet to spend the night with FIL(grandpa).He has been to our house maybe 10 times since we've been married, which is going on 4 years. He wants us to always bring the kids to him or come to his house if we want to see him. I don't like the idea of dropping my son off with basically a total stranger(to him). But, I'm trying to find a way to say NO without sounding like a total b*tch. Any help?

My 11 year old stopped wetting the bed a year ago(family history of bedwetting)and just this week he has wet his bed twice. I do not get angry with him, since I know he is not doing it on purpose...But why is this starting again? He is not sick, nothing has changed in our home to upset him, he is not eating or drinking any more than usual at bed time...I am preplexed by this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I have seen parents with children severe disabilities planning to have more kids. I would just think that would be soo difficult. Who will take care of the kids as the enter adulthood? Especially if the parents ever become ill.
