My soon-to-be-step sons are 11 and twins. They baby-sit a little and me and my fiance told them to be home by 10, it was a school night, and the parents were coming home at 9:45 and they live a few blocks down.

They came home at 11:30. My fiance and I were very angry. They didn't even call! We called the parents and they said that they came home earlier then they had expected! When we asked where they were they said, "Chill dad, Taylor, we were just out."

We are stumed on punishment. Besides taking away TV, computer, video games and they have to do extra chores. My fiance has this idea to treat them like a baby because lately they have been acting like big babies. He wants to diaper them, feed them, give them bottles, put them in cribs the whole thing including pinching cheeks and embarrassing them. I am totally behind them. Should we do it? They're mom is dead, so we aren't worrying about that. Is it fair? We plan to do it for a few months.

the only way she drinks milk at all is if it is warm, and lately has refused to drink that, thinking she has to go to bed. i know how important it is for her to drink milk but she won't.

Say a baby is like 6-7 months "in" for lack of a better word, and there is a miscarriage. Where does the (this is a very harsh term, but) dead baby go? And what about abortions, do the cells and stuff get like, flushed out? I dont mean to be offensive in any way, I just want to know the facts.

Alrighty, I'll try to avoid sounding like a little naiive girl. But, I'm a virgin. And I just got on birth control a bit ago for period problems and acne issues. I've heard of a condition called a false pregnancy, where you aren't pregnant, but your body thinks you are and you have all the symptoms and whatnot. Lately, I feel that way. I have to pee more often. I'm more worn out even after 8 hours of sleep. And, I actually have been gaining weight. And, I know I sound incredibly stupid. But I need to know if it's possible that this could be occurring?

I am writing a paper for a class and needed some help.
The subject of my paper is on generation differences between parents and kids. I chose to do my paper on personal expression.

So my question is do you as a parent have a tattoo or piercing (other than ears)
What tattoo or piercing(s) do you have and how do your kids feel about it?

I'm really not sure about this. Well almost a month and a half ago i thought i could have been pregnant. I had sypmtoms such as fatigue, headaches,dizziness and nausea. I was also keeping a low fever. Well i took 3 tests. The first was a faint positive but the other 2 were neagative? So i was certain i wasnt. But now a month and a half later, i still have sypmtoms. Now i get headaches almost everyday although they dont last long. I still get sick once in a while and i am constantly tired...im taking a nap everyday now. For the past 2 weeks i've been so moody. I really want to get pregnant, so i maybe i'm just trying to make myself think i am...what do you think?

To judge people on their age when they are mothers, or are pregnant. I am a young mom and I have had so many people judge me on my age because I was 14 whenever I got pregnant with my daughter who is now 5 months old. I think young moms should be treated equal to mothers who are not teen moms.

My 14 year old niece used to love living with me. But after she had a miscarriage (long story) and her dad came to visit (he does have rights to see her. She just came to see me durring a rough time in her life, her parents divorced), she's been talking about going with him next week when he heads back to Connecticut (I live in California). She's made great friends, and I thought she really like it here. Her Dad says she can move back in with him and she could visit me on vacations, if she wanted

I have done so much for her and it hurts to have her know she wants to leave me. What can I do? I know I can't make her stay, but how can I let the pain ease?

My wife and I adore it, we just want to see some other opinions. It's Maverick Hunter (1st & Middle). What do you think? Maverick is after my wife's mother's maiden name, and Hunter was my uncle's name (deceased as of 9-1-07, cancer. R.I.P.). We wanted to honour both these great people in some way, while sticking to our personal style (cowboy-ish, Western). So, what do you think? Thank you all :-)
