I drop my 4 year old off with his grandpa and he lets him destroy everything which is not sitting well with grandma. What gets me is grandpa is big on hunting and guns and he lets my 4 year old play with bullets and load guns. It was fine when grandpa did it for him for his gun that shot foamballs but grandpa says hes too big for that now. I went to pick him up at grandpas house and he was climbing up his grandpas dresser where he keeps a gun in the drawer and bullets in it too. He was in the room alone and wanted to shot it. I've tried everything from not taking the child there to being right on top of them to talking with the grandparents and setting boundaries. He goes right behinde my back and does the opposite of everything I say. All of our guns are in a combination and key lock safe so home fine. Hes okay at home. He doesn't destroy anything or try to get his fathers guns. What should I do? Hes a completely different child there.

Ok my son goes to his dad's house everyother weekend. Well today my son's father called me to pick our son up early, no big deal then he told me our son had a accident at the bowling alley were he split his finger wide open (4 stitches). Ok instead of taking him to the ER he wanted me to pick him up.(I made him go to the ER) Because he didn't have any insurance on him so he thought they wouldn't take him.
My question is is this really stupid for him to do call me instead of taking him to the ER and paying the bill.

Well, I'm 13, and I know it probably won't be soon, but when I talk to my mom about dating, when do you think she'll let me start?

Help me! I have a toddler who is a nocturnal nightmare. He will take a power nap @ 9pm and wake up at 12. Then he will crash at 3 and sleep till noon or later, unless I wake him up (in which he is a bear). Help!

When I examined myself today, my scar is jagged and puckered, not smooth, and my vaginal opening seems larger than before. Before I see my doctor, I would like an opinion about the expected size of my vaginal opening and the state of my perineum. Will these changes last?

My family has been so excited that I don't know how to tell them. I am drowning in my own grief at this point and I don't want to deal with their pity. And I don't know how to tell my 6 year old because he hasn't stopped talking about his new little brother since August. I just want to disappear at this point.

I have a 16 year with a 10 month old baby boy, she and baby still live at home with me. The father is somewhat around but does not pay for ANYTHING. Her and I get help with food stamps and WIC and the state is helping with paying for daycare so my daughter can work. She is IN LOVE with the father of her baby. I dont have a problem with that, my problem is how do I get them both to start paying for things. Yes, I have tryed almost everthing. The father is working but all I hear from him is he has car insurance or no gas or what every. With my daughter she gets her pay check and will by very little for the baby. She is a very good mother in taking care of her baby but seems to think that just cause I make more money then her I should just pay for everthing,. Tomorrow I am putting my house up for sale cause I am wanting to move into an apartment, I am tired of taking care of a house, not beacuse of my daughter, I told her that when I do her, baby an daddy need to find there own place.

I am 36 weeks pregnant and I posted earlier that I was having sharp little pains in my pelvic area and back pain. I was having braxton hicks that were 15 min. apart but they seem to have slown down. I had spotting a couple of days ago and my doc. told me that I was starting to soften and thin out. However, now Im not sure if Im leaking or not. It feels as if little air bubbles are coming out of my vagina. I check and it feels a little moist but nothing like its coming out everywhere. It feels a little wet though when the air bubbles come out. Im still hurting down there with the sharp pains and my back is still hurting. I havent noticed myself loosing a mucus plug yet..dont you have to lose that first before you leak? Anyway, any help would be appreciated. I am going to the doc. this week but I was wondering till then or if I should go to the hospital and have this checked out now.

I wanted to stop breast pumping after four months. I was pumping four times a day. I stopped pumping on 9/30 cold turkey and on 10/1, I had to pump after 36 hours of not pumping. My breasts were so tender and engorged that I was about to cry. I couldn't even hold my baby close to me.

Can I stop pumping and let nature take its course and just pump when engorged or is it better to continue to pump but only once a day and then every other day as a gradual decline?

What happens if you put babypowder in somebody's crack? If they fart would it come out like an explosion? I saw this on America's Funniest home Videos

would you ever try it out on somebody? What would you tell them you're trying to do? after it comes out would you run, blow on it, etc?
