my Mother is partially deaf and I went through a lot growing up and I had to mature at a young age, because I was the voice for my mother. How do I make it easier on the kids when they get older? I have to speak in a different accent than normally to talk to her so she understand me better. She can barely speak on the phone, what do I do to make my children's life easier. I won't cut off ties with my mom so no negative comments.

He has so many toys, cars, trucks, play areas, plenty of clothes and just so many toys, I am losing my head, I get rid of one and they keep on keepin' on. What should I give him, he already has a savings account with money, that's one gift, but what is another?

Sorry if I sound so repeated, but: I feel so left out because I as well have never had a boyfriend and it seems like everyone else in the world has, or at least has had someone like them are flirting with them- a LOT. I'm not the type who'll just walk up to a guy and ask him out. And I'm very well aware that I'm very young, I'm thirteen. The first things on my mind in school are my friends and well, learning, believe it or not, but there's always that little voice in the back of my head desperately wanting to experiance it just once, and it won't leave. Especially at dances. What can I do to stop feeling this way? I really don't want to make a fool of myself and throw myself and random guys, but I don't like this feeling at all.

Well i'm 15..i have been single for a while! It's not to bad, but after a while it begins to get depressing that most of the guys talk to you as friends but nothing more. So do any of you ever get down about it?, and what do you do to cheer up?

I went to pick her up from practice tonight and she informed me that one of the other cheerleaders Mom told her that if she were her daughter she would smack her in the mouth and that she would also smack her butt. My daughter along with all the other girls according to the coach were being rowdy. This Mom though is not a coach or even an asst coach. She is merely a Mom, who insists on staying at all practices even though the coach has asked us not to. My question is how do I handle this, what should i do? My first thought is to bust her in the mouth, but I am trying to be mature about this whole situation. And what breaks my heart is my little girl said when the lady said it, it made tears come in her eyes . Any advice?

This my first baby and I'm 28 weeks along. I just got laid off at work last thursday (not because I'm pregnant, because my employer couldn't afford to pay me to keep working for him). Now I'm unemployed because I am contract labor/self-employed I can't file for unemployment. I don't know what my chances are of finding employment with me being in my third tri-mester (due January 22, 2007). I don't know what to do right now but I know I can't afford to be off for very long. I know once the baby is born I shouldn't have that much of a problem find employment.
