Pregnancy & Parenting - 31 October 2006

I have to add to the question regarding 13 y/o that in this day in age you cannot physically make a child do anything because it is considered abuse. There is no place to take him because he has not done anything "wrong" or committed any crimes. When I was coming up if you didn't do what your parents told you...well you just did what they told you..there was no questioning it. Today, kids feel like they can do what they want. Oh yeah, checked into these so called boot camps "$5,000+".

This child has gone from honor roll to a D average. He is talking back and totally defiant to the point that he is no longer wanted in the house. He does not care about his appearance, has to be told to bathe, and does exactly the opposite of what he is told. He is disrespectful in school and at home. Over the summer it was revealed that he had smoked marijuana on more than one occasion. All signs seem to point to this but cannot be sure. Some say he's just being a teenager. The father has moved out of state and is of little help since his remedy is "talking to him." I feel more drastic measures are needed to prevent this child from heading in the wrong direction. Any suggestions? P.S. He refuses counseling.

I am 40 weeks, almost 41, I am starting to feel like as if the baby will never come and there really isnt a baby in there. Has anyone else ever felt this? I love the baby, but I almost feel as if she isn't there anymore.

At first, I thought she may be cutting a tooth. But 5 days seems like a long time! She's also been saying her tummy hurts, but isn't throwing up or having any other problems. I can't get her in to see a doctor until tomorrow. Tylenol and Advil have kept the fever broken, but it always comes back. I'm getting worried!

TruthHurts want to know if men want to be at the birth of their babies. He doesn't like all the blood and gunge that accompanies the birth.
Well, neither did I. I didn't have a choice. I'd have liked a nice clean little parcel handed over to me instead of spending hours writhing on a bed in pain. (Natural childbirth is for the birds.) And yes, I didn't like the fact that it was so undignified.
But the one person I wanted to share the magic moment of our baby's birth was my husband.
Yes, he was useless. But that didn't matter. It was OUR baby!
It didn't work out that way - I had an emergency caesar for our second and our first - he was busy discussing our options with the doctor in the passage outside the room. I still wanted him to be with me. Why would you want your husband to be there?

She is as good as gold for her childminder and at school but turns into the child from hell at home, I have tried reward charts grounding, naughty step, taking things away E.T.C but nothing helps, the health visitors seem to lose interest when children turn 5.
