errrr. My son is 16 months old and his mom insists on feeding him chicken nuggets. I tell her I cant stand it but on the other hand he is just a kid-he just eats whatever is in front of him. Mabey I'm overreating but I want him to be able to appreiciate healthly food that tastes good. So what should I tell her? When it comes to health stuff she kind of shuts me off.

I am tyring to get my 3 year old to potty in his potty. However, he won't stay on the potty for more than a minute. I give him books, colors, puzzles, and even candy to keep him occupied. He doesnt even pee after trying for more than an hour to get him to sit on the potty!! He shos interest in peeing. He'll say "Mommy Pee!" and run into the bathrooom to use it but then gets off after a minute. Then when you try to put a diaper or waterproof undies on him he crys and runs back to the bathroom and sits for another minute. Hes a very hyper little boy who hardly ever sits still for more than a minute. I should mention to that he has a speech problem and only speaks like a 18 month old would. Any help or thoughts is appreciated!!!

I am 38 weeks pregnant and I feel that my husband has totally pulled away from me. I feel really alone right now. Is this a normal male behavior? This is the first kid and he has said that he is not sure what to do.

My brother recently discovered one of his stepdaughters 18yr old friends , both are seniors in high school, was working as a dancer in a recently opened gentlemens club. His stepdaughters boyfriend's, friends went to the club and saw her. With the influx of strip clubs in our area more young women are turning to these places for quick cash and a way to move out on their own as soon as they turn 18, most of these young women have been having problems at home or school. As far as we know her parents do not know, she lives with a roomate on her own so we do not know how much contact she has with them. As every young woman dancing in these clubs or acting in sex films are someones daughter, how would you react if it was one of your daughter/sons friends or your own daughter ?

I live in the outer Wigan area, have 4 children, no family nearby and none of my friends have time to babysit. (and those friends don't have any teenagers to babysit either).

I consequently never go out .. except to do the food shopping when the kids are at school.

I'm 31 years old and have a 7 year old daughter and currently 20 weeks pregnant. When my son is born my daughter will be 8 years old, I'm pretty sure I want my tubes tied after this, but if I decide that in 3 years I want to have another baby(just a thought) how hard/painful is it to have the reversal done? I'll be around 34 years old, does it usually work having it reversed? Thanks

My baby is 5 weeks old and I am stopping breastfeeding. She seems like she is still hungry after I breastfeed so I have been supplementing and now my milk supply has lessened. I breastfed my son for 16 months and that was so difficult and I just don't want to go through that again, especially with a toddler to take care of also. Another reason is that it is causing my son to get jealous when he sees me breastfeeding her. I also don't get to sleep durirng the day and now because of breastfeeding I can't sleep at night, with the formula feeding I can allow my husband to feed her while I sleep. I know I can pump but that leaves me with no hands free for 20-30 minutes at a time and I have to keep an eye on my son.
The issue is I feel terribly guilty, wondering if she will be unhealthy because I am stopping so soon. Does anyone know if she is going to benefit enough from only 5-6 weeks of breastfeeding?

When I was 16, I went on a birth control pill because my periods were so irregular and severe. Now, my husband and I have decided to start a family, so I went off of my birth control pill that I had been on for 14 years. I went off the pill two months ago and still have not had a period. Should I be concerned about not being able to conceive?

Hi, well here is the story in about as condensed form as I can give. My sister’s former husband decided family life was not for him and moved on to woman half his age etc…the usual stereotype. His recent string of relationships has finally landed him into living with a “lady” two kids and they now live happily ever after in the same situation he left my sister to escape from. Go figure! Oh well to each his own. Now I have filled in as caretaker of home, picking nieces up, school functions and general role model. I love my sister and my nieces and will do whatever is necessary to have them all happy.

Now my problem. My 10 year niece is coming home and comparing her father’s girlfriend to my sister. My sister not only provides 99% of the financial support but 90% of the time as well to these girls. She also happens to have MS and is on a weekly medications that do make her retain weight and tires her out. Making a 10 year understand this has been difficult. So when my niece comes home with comments like why do wear granny underwear, you wear old people clothes, I want to get a g-string , and we don’t do that over at Daddy’s house it can be rather hurtful.

I guess I could ignore this and let our good upbringing prevail however I’m concerned that the outside influence of a drug using, floozy dressing other woman will give my nieces the wrong views on how to grow up to be true ladies. Should I explain it to her, talk to the ex-brother in law or just keep on providing a good role model and hope for the best?
