m'kay he is a 5'10, 17 yr. old male. i'll admit he used to be fit yet over the summer he slacked off & wit the help of his diet of sweets, binges, lack of exercise, occasional gluttony etc. etc. he put on around 55lbs. -sighs-

he now weighs around 217+ lbs. (he went from the 55th to the 96th percentile for his weight!) & if he keeps gaining like he has i dunno what to do. the only weird thing is 31in. jeans used to fall off of him. now i bought him a 36 or 38 in. belt & it wont even fit around him completely! he also pronounced lovehandles, back rolls, has stretch marks on his upper thighs & side of his bulging belly (that is starting to hang) he almost have moobs & i can go on & on.

so in your opinion is he fat, just right or underweight?

he's currently @ a boarding school & i'm worried to death he'll come home bigger than ever!! what shall we do??

i've expressed my concern to him but he said he'd be perfectly content with getting fatter & fatter... i'm rather scared!

My sister and her husband have been unable to conceive and want to have a family more than anything. They would love to adopt a child and are open to infants or older children (even a brother/sister combo) up to 7-8 years old. They are hesitant to foster a child because the heartbreak would be too much if the crack addict mother came back and took the child after they had bonded. They want a clean adoption and don't have the big bucks it takes to go to China or to adopt through a private agency like rich folks do. How can they adopt if they don't have all sorts of money? Please help me find some web sites and other resources for them. Thank you! (They live in Pennsylvania if that makes a difference in your answers.)

My 5 year old is very spolied and goes to his great- grandparents house twice a week to visit, but they give him everything he wants and spoil him. The problem is he doesnt want to listen to me, because he thinks they will give him what he wants..He gets a smart mouth and says Granny will get it for me then.... .I also have a 1 yr old but he doesnt go with him all the time, my oldest things all attention she be on him when he gets home. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to help his behavior?? Does grounding him from going over there sound like a good idea?

I hate that some people on here think it is not a real life inside you. It really bothers me that people think it is okay to kill a baby!!!

Check this out then decide what you think:

My son isn't quite two yet, he's 19 months. He throws these really big fits, screams at the top of his lunges and throws himself down on the floor. Most of the time I don't even know why it's not always because he had something taken away or because he was told no. He's still not talk so I know he get's frustrated when he can't communicate what he wants. But that doesn't mean I should allow him to get away with throwing these fits right? Usually I put him in his bed until he calms down and then will let him back. He doesn't communicate quite yet and so I can't really talk to him quite yet. My daughter was easier she started talking faster so this is a bit newer. Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to handle this behavior?

I know not to give the baby a bath everyday bec. it will dry out their skin and I havent been doing that I have rinsed her hair out very good thinking that might be the reason I wasnt getting all soap out but thats not helping no matter how long I rinse it, today after her bath I put alittle bit of baby lotion on her head bec. it just looks nasty but now her hair just looks very oily bec. of the lotion, I dont want people thinking I dont take care of my baby.... What can you do for them to try to get rid of the dandruff looking scalp? What can I put on it? Anyone have any ideas? First time mom here! And I have no idea what to do all I know is that it looks disgusting like I dont bathe my child with little white flakes all over her head!remember she is only a month and 2 weeks

Can anyone help me with the numbers and possiblities? I was 5 weeks pregnant and miscarried on the 31st of Aug. I only had a little bit of blood that day but then had heavier period like bleeding starting on Sept 3rd. On the 18th I had old brownish blood that was a little bit clotty like. It was only for like 1 hour that it bleed and then I will just have a bit when I wipe now. It was never red or pink always brown. I have been feeling very sick lately and having symptoms exactly like when I was pregnant. So... do you think its implantation bleeding, or effects from the miscarriage? I really dont know where my cycle is at now but I am 27 days from when I would have had a period had I not been pregnant. And 21 days from the day of miscarriage. Thanks for the help.

I have been off the pill since February and wanting to get pregnant. How long should I wait before I go see a specialist?
My fear is... it could be something that can be fixed easy and I have been going through all these months of frustration for something I could have taken care of.

My son is almost 6 months old and hates tummy time. He cries and screams and barely pushes up on his arms because he doesn't want to be on his tummy. He can do it, I've seen him do it many times, but he seems to be lazy. Is this delayed development or will he start holding himself up and crawling on his own? Should I worry?
