My son is 10 yo and i caught him touching himself on many ocassions. I suspect that he could be masturbating. Is this normal for a 10+yo.

I need serious answers only.

My son has been attending the same wonderful home day care since he was 12 weeks old. In the last month, he has begun fighting us every morning about getting dressed and leaving the house to go to school. The day care environment is friendly and loving, and once he's there, he's fine. All smiles, happy, cheerful, and immediately begins playing with his friends. The mornings usually begin nicely, but within a few minutes, he begins whining about not going to school which within about 5 minutes escalates into a full-scale screaming bout about not wanting to get dressed. This ritual has me and my husband almost at our wits' end, and some days is making us late for work, which is unacceptable. Some of the children that he used to be close to have moved away and there are a few new kids, including his new brother, who is now almost 6 months old. He loves his brother, all hugs and kisses - never mean to him, so I don't think this is the problem. Any advice on how to counter this behavior?

ABC news reported 1 in 40 infants are depressed. Hello??
Doctors are suggesting Prozac for infants. Would you give your baby Prozac?
I suppose the pharmco's are backing this.

Ok if u notice.... I have a question on here about my son too. My children arent relatively bad but they have some issues that need to be worked out. Any little thing I ask my daughter to do is a 10 minute discussion. She complains and whines about everything. Things she use to whine about when she was 4. Is this normal or have I spoiled her somewhere down the road that has caused this??? How do u put an end to the complaining and whining???? What to do if she wont stop????

He called and told me that the custodian had clean up urine the day before stating it was all over the floor and toilet. It was done on purpose he said. Then he noticed a certain pattern. The next day my sons friends caught him doing the same thing and told the teacher. My son will sometimes do the same thing at home. He is very aggressive. He threw his backpack at me because I wouldnt carry it on the way home from the bus stop. Any parents have any solutions. He has been diagnosed with ODD and ADD but I dont want to medicate him.

but im scared to insert anything inside my, i feel it will burst the sac that protects the baby. i was recently being treated for yeast and the nurse told me to use my finger to insert the tablets instead of the tool because they do not trust it. that is why i cant trust using my vibrator either. can this really touch the sac or damage my insides?

the advice I got was great but I live in Jamaica I do not have all the government facilities as you all have in america. therefore, all expense is on me. i dont even work enough to pay my bills. i was really depending on his help but now hes gone to someone else. should i beg him and bury my dignity? for the sake of my baby. I am now going into my 6mths and i dont even have any baby stuff yet. it has gotten me so depress that i am not feeling this child at all. i was really hoping to be a family. my friend told me i have symptoms of baby depression. she says brooke shields had it and i could end up ignoring my new born and i dont want to do that. my parents never really had it and i am here so i really want to try. is it okay to take antidepressant while pregnant?

I know everyone is different...I am still waiting for a blood test to determine whether or not I am pregnant. I think I am. I was wondering how soon other people who have been or are pregnant began to show? Let me describe further; I am skinny all over but now have a little bump on my belly which is solid when I am standing but when I sit down it's soft. It's not fat and I am certainly not premenstrual or bloated; I even have the same size bump in the middle of the night when I have not eaten for a few hours. I am also finding it hard to sleep and have a decreased appetite although the hpt I took showed as negative. I estimate I'd be around 7-8 weeks perhaps. As I say, I am planing to see a doctor for a blood test but am interested in hearing from other people...

I asked the trainee nurses that did the test what it meant and was told to as the doc. I then asked the doc and was told it was nothing to worry about at this stage which left me confused. Am I to worry about it later. Does it have anything to do with my kidney or could it have beeen my diet for the day. If there is anyone out there who knows about these things please answer me! anxiously waiting your reply
