Hi everyone.

i have a 4 year old, turns 5 in March. he has just started school, Already his teacher has told me he has trouble listening. We we're told by his pre-school teacher last year that he may have ADHD. I got fairly upset by that and took him to my doctor who said he's just being a kid.

He is very hyper, all the time. Whenever I try and take him anywhere, it's like a switch goes on in his head and he just plays up constantly. No matter what I say or do, he just keeps on going. I've tried the whole leave when he plays up, time out, taking away favourite toys, but that only works for a day, then it's back to the same old thing.

We can't get him to sleep earlier than 10 or 11 at night, no matter what we try he just stays awake!

Im thinking of looking into his diet, cutting out all sugars and things, but not sure where to start.

If anyone has any ideas or advice for me it would be great.

I just don't want him to start having problems in school so young.

so apparently everyone thinks im immature for feeling like number 2 in my boyfriends life after telling me that he might have a child. well feeling that way is not a reflection of being immature it a sign that i realize that a child is more important than pretty much anything that i do. so for all the mothers yea i am to young im 19 and he is 27 so excuse me if im having a hard time dealing.

I am 71/2 months pregnant and just found out that my baby has a heart condition and is going to have to have multiple surgeries. The hospital I have to go to is 3 hours away so I will have to stay near there. I have a 6 year old boy and 3 year old girl already so I have to pull my son out of school to come with me. My 3 year old isn't old enough to understand but how do I explain all of this to my 6 year old? He is always asking me why I am crying and things like that, I just don't know how to tell him something so devastating.

I was wondering if anyone could guide me into the right direction. I have been "wet" all day it seems like. I have changed my underwear 3 times cause I dont have a way to the store to get pads. Could I be leaking amniotic fluid? It smelled like sweet amonia this morning and now it doesnt have to much of a smell to it. When I set down after standing up if feels like "bubbles" coming out and then I start to feel really uncomfortable down there because it is wet. I am 38 weeks pregnant and plan on going to have it checked out if necessary but cant do so until my husband gets home in 4 hours. So does anyone think it could be amniotic fluid or something else?

Whta have you given up or gone without to make them happy, or to get something they really wanted? Every parent has made a sacrifice or gone without something to either get their child something or make them happy in some way. Have you sold a family heirloom for a prom dress and your daughter never knew?
What the biggest sacrifice you have made for your kids?

Should parents get upset if the eldest child tell them that he/she doesn't want to be the role model of his/her younger sibling? The older child doesn't want to play with her little sister, share friends and secrets with her or take her little sister with her when she wants to hang out with her friends. Do you as a parent get upset if you hear this from your older child? Do you think it is right?

Last month I found out this boy was the one that spread a rumor about how mean I am! So I saw him at the lunch line and kicked him in the nuts, he just made this very surprised face holding his nuts, then after 3 or 5 seconds he started feeling it and fell to the floor in the fetal position. I thought it was so funny and couldn’t help but to laugh, all the girls laughed too and most of the boys just stared. After a few minutes he even started throwing up, wow I am glad I hurt him that much, sure serves him right. I was almost finishing my lunch when he started crying with a very ugly face, then after a while he got off the floor and left(he must have lost his appetite =)). Later I found out he had to lay down for about an hour in the nurses office. He never messed with me again! Anyway, my boyfriend is always bugging me about how wrong it was for me to do that to him, and I am FED UP, I warned him 2 times now!!

Could a UTI be a sign of pregnancy? I got pregnant in July and had a UTI the entire month of August. After missing 2 periods I decided to take a test and was around 9 weeks when I found out. But Im wondering could the UTI had been a sign that I was pregnant or probably not? Ive heard of a few women who went to the Dr. that thought they had a UTI but were told they were pregnant instead. Im just wondering because i didnt have any signs of pregnancy until around 12 weeks except missed periods and just kinda wondered if anyone else had one at the start of their pregnancy? This isnt going to like make a difference in life or anything i just kinda wondered. Thanks.

My daughter, Emma, has been the best sleeper. I have had a problem lately trying to decide if I am going to stop the pacifier cold turkey. If it pops out, it is the only reason she wakes up. While falling asleep, if she pops it out, then she has to cry and start all over again. I have read that it is better to stop sooner than later, before they become really attached and more aware of the sudden change. She is 5 months old, I was thinking this was a good time, especially since more recently she pulls it out herself right after you put it in, and then she wonders 'how did it come out again...' I also don't want her to ecome a finger sucker, because you can't take fingers away....Any thoughts?
