It's causing him a lot of pain and making him cry a lot - something he doesn't do much at all. Is there anything we can do to ease the "flow", so to speak.

This is the first year with my new husband and stepson. I have a son who is 8 (stepson is 6) I have bought both boys lots of presents but I did get a little more for my son. My stepson will have 2 Christmas's one with his Mom and one with us which means double the presents. My son will only have one with us. Do you think that I need to get both boys the same amount or is it fair that my son will have a little more under our tree.

By the way, we will not be getting my husbands son until the weekend after Christmas so they will not be opening up presents together.

If a woman has a normal 28 day cycle, what's the possibility she will become pregnant 5 days before her period is about to begin? Is this a time when a woman usually ovulates?

this may seem kinda strange, and a little gross maybe. But last night when we had sex, I became um... Much more wet than normal. Is it crazy of me to be concerned about the baby? It is very hard for me to ask this. Could it have been amniotic fluid? I am 4 months pregnant today. I havent had any pain or anything. Please Im not trying to be funny here. Any opinions?

I would prefer creative, low-cost gifts, rather than the most popular toys of the moment.

Thank you!

My boyfriend want to have sex with me daily, and if I tell him that I dont want it, or im sleepy he gets mad and wants to fight me. And when we do have sex I find it very uncomfortable, when I tell him to stop he wont. Either he would pull my hair or he would hold my harms down and get on top of me if I tried to get up. I have another child by him, and he does that right in front of her. What can I change to make his sex better, and to stop him from doing this too me?

Recently there seems to be a bit of a trend in the celebrity world of adopting babies form third world countries but is it good or bad?

There seems to be a lot of advantages (the main one being that the child might actually live to see adulthood) and disadvantages (being in the media spot light and being treated like an accessory) - what do you think?

I have a 18 year old son who has a girlfriend that he adores. I just found out that they are trying to have a baby. They had a pregnancy scare about 2 months ago and at that time my son was devistated because he didnt want to be a father. Now they are trying to have a baby. Dosent make sence. He is being defiant to me and his father. He dosent want to listed to us and wants to do his own thing. His girlfriend is telling him that he is an adult and that he can do what ever he wants to do. He takes that advice and treats us like we owe him. Last night we talked to him and gave him 3 months to get enough money together and find his own place. We told him now that he is makeing adult decisions he needs to spread his wings and fly. My question is did we do the right thing? We have given him all the tools in life to survive but it is hard to let go.

Our daughter got pregnant and was left single. I have had to help raise our grandchild and he has gotten so close to me that he treats his mommy as a sister. Because she has had to work and not made a bond with her son, she is having a serious time getting him to listen to her. She was not ready for a child therfore she has struggled to bond with her son. She had a trouble relationship and had PostPartum after her son was born. She has decided to move on her own and see if she can regain her relationship with her son. He is now 2 and is very close to Grandpa and me. They will move 2hrs from here and I will be close enough to see them. I am glad for her decision and support her. I have done everything for both of them, will she be ok? Will she be able to handle all the repondsiblities that come with being a parent? Am I just worried?
