A boy threatened to shoot my daughter and another student and anyone else that got in his way. After the school investigation is over should I press charges against the boy?

Has anyone ever heard about buying a breast pump from an actual clinic where if you had Medi-cal, they would take up to 75% off the price of the breast pump?

alright, my period is 17 days late, im on the pill and my periods have been regular for the last 3 years now..well until now that is. i took 3 hgt's came back negative, went to the doctor for a blood test and it came back negative. I dont know what is going on, i can feel a bit of pressure in that area and very minor cramps but no period...could the doctor's blood test still be wrong?

how would it affect the babies of the parents that have bipolarity and could it be possible for a child not to get it and pass on the gene to their kids?

I know when your pregnant your appetite is suppose to change, Well i have reason to believe im in early pregnancy maybe 3 weeks. it's weird that I feel hungry, but eat less than usual? I thought it was the opposite, am i backwards?I eat and be full than an hour later I'm hungry again.

I have a 3 yr old son that has always been a little angel. -must just be his personality because my youngest is already a little terror. Anyway tonight we had a Christmas party and his four year old cousin comes running into the living room screaming saying my son hit him on the head with a bucket. I was in shock.. and my nephew always crys when people even accidently bump into him so I thought well maybe it was an accident. I went in there and asked my son and he owned up to it but had no reason as to why? He hasn't ever hit anyone before to my knowledge but when we go on playdates the kids will come and say that my son won't play with them. You know the whole "mommy he won't play with me" My youngest is only ten months but my 3 yr old never hits him or anything if I am not around. He is actually extremely protective. So much so that when his aunt gave him a toy tonight the first thing he said was "what about my brother" When my youngest gets in trouble my oldest cries haha. But he just doesn't like other kids. He wants to be left alone. If I had to guess I would think that is probably why he hit him. How do I encourage him to be more outgoing? He loves older kids ..my brother and sister are only 11 and he loves playing with them and is always sweet. I worry about when he starts school...

I have a neighbor whose kids are almost always dressed up in dress clothes even in the summer. The boy’s normal attire is a dress button up shirt (sometimes with a tie), dress pants, dress shoes and socks. On the little girl it is always a nice dress and dress shoes. I do not think them dressing up is a bad thing, but I do not see the reason everyday. It not like they are outside playing in the mud like this, but I see them in and out of the house on any given day. Has anyone ever seen this or do this with their children.

short relationship, were pregnant, break up. baby came and I always tried to be a family but she would never hear of it. she's not nice trying to work out arrangements about our child. despite the obvious fact that we are not going to be together (because she says). I think that she does not respect the fact that i need to be around our young child as a father. Ive been nice about everything, she says that she wants me involved but never acts like it. Visitation Is becoming a pain because she somtimes does not call back about times. Im always playing catch up just to see my daughter 2 days a week. lts gotten shurnk down to about 10 hours a week. I dont care if she likes it or not but I plan on being my childs father. when is enough of enough before getting the courts involved. I still wabt to be a family but I dont know when to quit, because I dont want to fight with her forvever

My daughter is 3 months old(who has medical issues) I also have a 3 year old son (who I dont think I am being a very good mother too) I am just not spending enough time with him and I find myself snapping at him a lot. I do not want to go on any medication for postpartum. Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do to feel better on my own??

What do you have to do in the Pennsylvania to become a foster parent? What are the requirements and such ? Any websites or anything would be helpful.

This evening I was just walking around the house and I felt really wet. I checked and I had leaked this watery CM. It happened a couple of times after that too. I don't remember having this watery type before. Did anyone experience watery/wet CM during early pregnancy? Also, I have my symptoms listed below. Do these sound like pregnancy symptoms?
I'm due for period on the 26th. So far I've experienced:

5 dpo - Soo sleepy!
6 dpo - mild lower abdominal cramping all day, some hot flashes
7 dpo - increased appetite, sleepy, gassy, few hot flashes, little more mild cramping
8 dpo - mild nausea once
10 dpo - felt sick and hungry at same time
11 dpo - increased appetite in evening
12 dpo - felt hot and watery/wet cm

I have not had tender breasts.

THANKS!!!!

I am 3 months pregnant and I want to know if it is normal for me to have pains after having sexual intercourse? When me and my finance finished I started having sharp pains on my left side close to the bottom of my stomach. I have never felt it before until after we finish. I know that it can happen once you are up in your months but is it normal since I am only 3 months.?
