with various barnyard animals. I am concerned about this behavior, although I have to admit that our goat is a very attractive animal. How do other parents handle this problem?

I am a stay-at-home mom and spend the majority of the day playing, singing, reading, and interacting with my son. We have a morning walk & afternoon outside play . However, we run out of things to do by early afternoon. Anyone have any games, ideas or crafts that are suitable for a 17-month -old and his attention span? I want his day to be fun-filled and educational but, I am quickly running out of ideas that are different and suitable. Any help is greatly appreicated!

Here are the facts:

1. My girlfriend's cycle is every 26-31 days...today, she is 6 days late (day 37)

2. We had sex 4 times last month...we used a condom every time and pulled out every time. I also urinated before sex every time. There was no slippage or tearing that we noticed. We are very careful.

3. She is getting cramps on the right, left, and middle of her lower abdomen. Primarily on the left and right sides...where the ovaries are. These cramps are the same as any other time when she would be starting.

4. We are both tremendously stressed about the situation. I have heard that the thought of being pregnant can make your body believe it is, thus making the woman late. Is this true? Could it just be stress making it this late? The latest she has ever been is Day 35.

5. She has NO pregnancy symptoms. Just cramps. No nausea, breast tenderness, dark urine, etc. Nothing. She says she feels no different than she would any other time, except that she is very stressed.

The election here is coming up and we're going to be voting on whether we want to make human cloning legal here. I was just wondering: Are you for or against human cloning? I'm against it. I think every individual is their own unique being and if we start cloning then that uniqueness goes down the drain. What about you? For or against?

MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN "DADDY" TO MY DAUGHTER SINCE SHE WAS 3 YEARS OLD. HER BIOLOGICAL FATHER AND I AGREED IT BEST FOR HIM TO TERMINATE HIS PARENTAL RIGHTS WHEN SHE WAS ABOUT A YEAR OLD - SO THAT SHE COULD HAVE THE CHANCE TO HAVE A REAL FATHER ONE DAY. SHE HAS NEVER MET HIM, BUT HE AND I HAVE REMAINED FRIENDS AND WE DISCUSS HER OFTEN. I HAVE NO HARD FEELINGS TOWARDS HIM AND I THANK HIM FOR GIVING HER TO ME.

HE HAS JUST BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER AND GIVEN ONLY ONE YEAR TO LIVE. EVEN THOUGH SHE KNOWS THAT HER "DADDY" ISN'T HER BIOLOGICAL FATHER AND SHE NEVER ASKS QUESTIONS ABOUT THE OTHER ONE, I AM CONCERNED ON WHETHER OR NOT SHE SHOULD MEET HER BIOLOGICAL FATHER. I DON'T WANT TO MESS UP HER HEAD--SHE IS TOTALLY SETTLED AND HAPPY RIGHT NOW -- BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, I DON'T WANT HER TO LEARN THAT SHE HAD THE CHANCE TO MEET HIM BUT WAS DENIED THAT MEETING.

MY HUSBAND THINKS OF HER AS HIS AND DOESN'T THINK THAT ANYTHING GOOD COULD COME FROM A MEETING, BUT HE IS LETTING ME DECIDE.

I have asked my midwife what it is but she told me that is probably was practice contractions. I don't think that they are because it just shoots to my lower groin area. thank you if you have any info it is greatly appreciated!

I just moved into an apartment with electric heat. The units run along the floor....which is so convenient for my 1 year son to put his fingers inside. I have searched high and low for some kind of radiator cover, only to find that they only make ones for the big steam radiators. And I am sure you are thinking....well put something in front of it. Well, if you have kids....you know no space is inaccessible.

I am so worried he is going to burn himself.

If anyone has any ideas....PLEASE. Before is gets cold i have to figure out something. I have even considered duct taping mesh over it.

See here's the deal My guy and I are having our 1 year. I don't know if he is doing anything for me, but I want to do something for him. We aren't married but we lived together and have lived together for a year. Not to mention we have a 2 month old baby, so I don't know what I could do for him that would make this a special day for us

Is suspension for a day a reasonable punishment for an 8th grader muttering a curse word under his breath? The teacher did not hear it, but the kids around him told on him.

His bed time is 8pm. You can look at him and tell he is tired so he's not going to bed to early. But he is using every stalling tactic he can. I want some water, I need to potty (but he does nothing), I want this toy, I want that toy, come cover me up. He gets up a minimum of about 10 times per night and I don't know what to do.
Any suggestions.

Would you say that I could possibly be pregnant, or would you say that it is just in my head and my body is reacting to me wanting a baby really bad, and that my period is on it's way?

So...my girlfriend may be pregnant. We are both only 18 and still live with our parents. How do I tell my parents about this? I feel like I've let them down.

What would you do?

Hi, I'm expecting a baby in March next year & to save money on a new nursery/bedroom range I decided to use my old bedroom suite which was black ash (yes very 80's I know) & paint it white as the walls are a pastel green. I got some special Melamine/MDF paint from B&Q & slapped on a few coats.
It looks great & I had fun hanging up the ickle clothes I'd bought so far on their hangers but I cannot get rid of the smell of the paint & the clothes are smelling of it too now.
I'd left the doors & everything open for about 2/3wks before hanging anything in the hope the smell would have gone/faded except it hasn't & I've even tried stick on air freshners inside but it's not working. Anybody got any ideas on getting rid of the paint smell?
