In my family my parents refused to make us work until we turned 18, at which point we were made to get jobs. I feel that as a teenager the primary focus should be going to school, making good grades, and enjoying being a teen while they still can. All the kids in our families had GPA's of over 4.0 because school's value was stressed to us, which constituted as hard work. I feel that since teenagers have their whole lives to work that they shouldn't have to work until they need to. I have also witnessed that alot of teens, when they begin to work, starts to feel alot more adult than they really are and they start feel that the money they are making is more important than school. The only way that I would make my teen work is if they were not doing well in school and getting into trouble at which point I figure they will need to get used to that kind of work anyways. I also understand that some families need their teens to help out. Please tell me what your feelings are on this topic.

Our little girl will be a year old in 10 days and usually sleeps all night w/out assistance. Normally, she goes down around 8:30 ish and wakes up 8:30 the next morning, but every once in a while, on a church night or something, she goes to bed late. I noticed that last time this happened, she woke up around 6:00a.m. after going to bed the night before around 10:00 instead of her regular bedtime at 8:30pm.

When can I take new baby to the pool, or when do babies enroll in swimming lessons? There's a kiddie pool where I live and was considering taking baby in late afternoons.

And call her Jade for short?

I really like it - it goes well with our last name but I don't think my husband likes Jayden so much. Elizabeth is my great grandmother's name - we are trying to use someone's name in the family as the middle name.

Thoughts? If you don't like the name Jayden, what do you think sounds nice with Elizabeth as a middle name?

My 6-yr-old has been in dance since she was three. She's always enjoyed it and it really good at it. But now she wants to do gymnastics. If I could afford for her to do both, I would but unfortunately it's either/or. I really don't want her to leave dance because I think she would get much more out of it in the long run. Also, I think the potential for injury is much higher in gymnastics. Plus, because she is tall for her age and will always be on the tall side, I don't think she'll be as good in it as she is in dance.

On the other hand, since I don't expect her to become a professional dancer or an Olympic gymnast, should it be completely her choice?

I'm 5'8" and when I found out I was pregnant I weighed about 132. Now, I'm 142 and I don't know why because I can't eat more than 1200 calories a day. I eat mostly healthy food and work out 6 times a week. I drink at least 64 fl. oz. of water a day. I started overweight with my first baby and wound up not gaining weight because of dietary changes, exercise and morning sickness that lasted throughout, but I had a very healthy girl. I'm really worried because my clothes already feel tight. Is it normal to not be hungry AND to gain weight? Did this happen to anyone? Does it mean I'm doomed to gain 75 pounds?

everynight there is about 10 people sleeping in our house (my older siblings and step-siblings, a couple come back for the night everynight just to sleep) and i'm expecting twins. My whole primary family is actually 14 people although yeah there are only about 10 people in the house evrynight and my real dads in jail...
I just....i don't think its the kind of place where these kids should be raised. I havn't talked to my mom about it but she would prbably agree... Is it illegal for me to have my own apartment or something. Idk, i think its too...busy for two new babies but on the plus side i'd be with my mom all the time and i really need her help with this...I don't want to stay with strangers either or anything...Can anyone think of something? Or will i have to stay with my family throught this?

Some milk backed up into the tubing and i need to clean it out. Can you boil it or will it melt? How about any ideas of how to get something in it to clean the inside of the tube out?
