I have a very unique situation. I recenty sepearted from a man that I was with for 3 1/2 years. He has I son that I have helped raise so he gave me visitation. Since they moved out my son has had little to no disciple and gets everything he wants whenever he wants it. For the last couple of months when he comes over to my house and screams at me and does not listen at all. If I punish him he gets really upset and says things like " Daddys right I dont want to come over here any more. " I am trying my hardest not to get mad around him but I know that his father is making me out to be tha bad guy. His father has even admitted to me that he tells him that I wont let him move back home among other things. What do I do. It hurts me more than anythin g to think that he doesn't want to be at my house.

I need some advice on how to deal with my 6 yr old son. He simply cannot stay still or concentrate. He's good in math and reads fluently, but he does'nt seem to take in advice and i feel , he's a little immature for his age and is very irresponsible- doesn't want to do his own things or take things seriously. He is very playful and noisy at home. It seems like all the other kids in his class are a lot more responsible. How do i deal with him? pls give me some suggestions. Thank you.

I am trying a new strategy on getting my 2 year old to sleep. I've heard warm milk can help, but I just want to make sure. Is milk (1% here) safe to warm up on the stove and drink? I want to give it to him to drink while going to sleep (yes I know this is not good, but I am breaking habits one at a time). Will this make him sick because it is warmed up?

They won't stop and at first I thought it was the real thing (labor). Are there anyways to stop them? I'm 13 putting me at a higher risk for a early baby and I'm only 32 weeks. I timed them like someone said on my other board and called the doctor. Only Braxton Hicks contractions. I talked to my mom and there is no need to worry What's happening?!?

I am a single mom working Mon thru Fri and home by 6pm. I cook dinner 5 times out of a week. He is an only child, but has plenty of cousins and a few friends. I don't even have a male friend taking away our time together. Weekends are usually open to whatever. I also participate in his Boyscouting events which he likes for me to attend but conversing with him is like pulling teeth and its frustrating me to the point where I want to take him to a counselor or something. I dont know if it is me doing something because he won't tell me, everything is a quick NO or I don't know. He is a great kid otherwise. :(

My husband and I are naming our unborn daughter Shiloh Maddison. But everytime we tell people, we hear over and over again how that is Brad Pitts babies name. Does anyone know his babies middle name? I'm hoping that it's not maddison. We dont want our Shiloh to have the exact same name. Does anyone else like our name?

Do you think Zayl would be a good boy's first or middle name? I love Z names and I think this one is universal enough to be cute when he's little and manly when he's older. Be honest! Thanks.

Me and My boyfriend got into a pretty heated argument today. His pitbull which I have also helped raise since he was a puppy.. completly turned on me and lashed on to my arm in the middle of the argument. of course my arm is swollen and bruised. I am also pregnant so now I am just worried to death to have my child around this dog.. My boyfriend on the other hand took up for his dog stating that our pitbull did his job by biting me, and never once checked to see if I was okay. My question is should i attempt to give our dog another chance, or would you guys be worried if you were pregnant and not want the dog around. ( I have to big of a heart to ever have an animal put down so that i out of the question ) If anything I would just give him away. What are some options?

He's fine during the day, and he goes to sleep ok. He just wakes up in the middle of the night crying really hard. Nothing will calm him, I've tryed bringing him to bed with me, laying with him, singing, a nightlight, and nothing seems to work.

He's 3 years old, but he has speech problems so he can't tell me what's wrong. Any suggestions will be helpful.
