Ok, so meorge is out of the question for our newborn, people have mad that very clear. My wife and I have narrowed it down to these two names if it's a girl: Claire and Maddie (Madelynn)

Which of these names do you prefer? Why?

Is kinda stupid. I am not saying they are stupid people. They are just making a stupid mistake.

If you are raising a child and you come on here explaining things and asking other poeple what you should do...You dont do that! They are your children and you should know how to handle it. And if you dont...you shouldn't be asking other people how to raise your kids.

Someone women wanted to know if her 17 year old daughter should be allowed to go out on a date....17 for christs sake! I would have let her date when she was 14! Other people were saying "not till she is out of the house".

Asking other people how to raise your child is stupid, and the people that ask questions everyday about how they should handle every little thing....should not be a parent if they cant raise them themselves...

Who agrees?

This is my second child by birth, I had no problems weening off my daughter. I tried the same method with my son but he still thinks he needs to be breast fed in the middle of the night, befor nap and bed time. He refuzes the bottle ,but will take a sippy cup during mealtimes. he loves food and does very well with solid foods that we give him

a mom's weight gain during pregnancy, and autism? The article below states that women who gain more than the recommended amount of weight during pregnancy have a higher chance of having kids with birth defects. Not sure if it includes autism, but I know several women with autistic children and they have all gained A LOT of weight during their pregnancies...50 or more pounds. Just struck me last night as I was watching TV. I saw an ad with Jenny Mc Carthy doing an ad for Jenny Craig or weight watchers stating that she gained 60 pounds while pregnant and her son is autistic.

i posted the same question already but not enough people answered it to get a solid opinion..and i am absolutely searching for the perfect names and i found 2 that stuck out but i want some peoples opinions before my child is stuck with it for the rest of their life!

so for a girl..

marisa christine

and for a boy..

paul santiago

suggestions are welcome also!!

and dont hold back any criticisms cuz i'd rather know all the bad opinions about these names before my child has one of them for the rest of their lives!! so be honest and give me other names that i can consider!

thanks so much!

This isn't a question, but I wanted to thank everyone for answering all the labor questions. Labor went quickly and in her words "not as bad as expected." And I was suprised to find out that I wasn't completely useless. Haha. We now have a beautiful 7 pound little boy. Thanks again!

What if you were working nights until 9:00pm and had a 15 year old? Would you want your her father (you're separated) to sit with her until you came home?

Ok so my daughter is a little behind in math. She did the best she could to understand it. Then she had a test today. The teacher didn't want to correct everyones seprate so each child corrected there own while the teacher read out the answers. Then she sat at her desk and had the child read out their grades to her so she could put them in her grade books. When the teacher came to my daughters name she asked the grade. When my daughter didn't answer she made the child next to her look at the paper and say her grade for her. Is this way a lot of teachers correct tests now?

Pornstars rarely use protection in videos so are they on like birthcontrol or the pill or something. How come they do not get hiv or gonorrhea doing all the things they do ?
