I feel like I should NOT pay my kids (11 and 6) for doing basic chores such as picking up their stuff, and other age appropriate tasks. Is this right? Shouldn't they learn to take pride in a clean house without the bribe of allowance? Should allowance be rewarded for following rules ?

I have heard a story (not sure if it is true) of the woman who named her kids Lemonjelo and Orangelo because she saw Lemon and Orange Jello on her lunch menu. Any worse than these?

to have lost interest in me. We haven't made love since we found out in August... He barely even kisses me. And when he does kiss me, it's on the cheek. I don't understand why. I asked him and he just says "Is sex all you think about?". I have only gained 7 pounds so I don't think that it is a physical thing. Please help.. either ideas of why he has changed or ideas of how I can make him interested in me again.

My 3 month old is constantly spitting up. Yes we have called the doctor he said as long as she is happy its ok. We are going to take her in to see him next week. Is there anything I can do about this. We use good start formula and dr. browns bottles. Is there a different bottle that might work better?

It is 26 degrees F but with the wind chill it feels more like 17 degrees F. Is that to cold to be out with a 5, 4, and 2 1/2 year old? The kids want to go to story hour at the local book store. Then to do train paintings at the local toy store. We do not have the car at this time so driving is not an option.

Ok, so we (my family) has custody of my 8 year old cousin. She was in foster care, but they wanted to get her out of that and get her with some family permanently. We went through the foster parenting classes and everything, and now she's living with us. When she first got here, she was a really good kid, but now she's really testing our limits, like most 8 year olds would, but I can't deal with it and I'm left with her a lot. If one of my parents are home, she acts like a perfect little angel, but as soon as they leave she turns into the spawn of Satan. How can I tell her, without swearing or being mean, that she looks like a complete whore and that no 8 year old should even be thinking about boys, sex, and dressing like a prostitute?

...but crackheads and meth addicts and drunks pop babies out like there is no tomorrow? Plus, 90% of the time, their babies are A-ok.

Are crack and meth underground fertility drugs? j/k

I am so frustrated, we can't get a baby for anything. We do it at the right times. All I eat is healthy food. Evertime my rag comes it seems like someone else has a pregnancy announcement. It seems like all the people who live off processed crud and white bread and Mickey D's are hyper fertile. Here I am over here living on organic everything and in perfect shape, and NOTHING.

Why??

Regaurdless of that i still take my birth control religiously...(YAZ) and i know to not take antibiotics and so fourth and noramlly my bf pulls out but last night he didnt... i should be pretty safe though considering I am so close to my period right?

How much does a vasectomy cost , do some insurance companies help cover it and about how long would it take for my husband to recover? He works in the oil field, so does alot of physical stuff. How long would he have to be off from the job? We are going to start looking into it soon, but I thought Id ask here first just to get an idea.. Thanks.

I asked this in the Mens health category, but they werent much help : Just telling me things like it will cost alot for him, but nothing to me, etc..lol. So anyways, We have 3 boys and a girl on the way in March. He has volunteered for the vasectomy, since I have had to go through childbirth. Anyways, Im just curious if anyone else's husband has done it and how did it go? I will do my own research on the subject later when it gets closer to the time to do it.
