I am in a child development class and we got baby dolls that look and act very realistc (they cry need to be fed, burped and changed). I went to the movies last night with my friends and the doll and I got the dirtyest looks and they were blatant. So my question is what do you do when you see a teen mom or if you were one what did people do?

I saw a couple on tv who were carrying their children in their car seats and the seat had an over the shoulder carrier strap. I would love to know where to get a seat like this. I am so tired of trying to carry my sons seat 2 inches off the ground. It kills my back since I am so short and he weighs so much. I think the show I saw it on was on TLC and they were a couple from england. I need this seat!!!!!!!

Okay my daughter is 11. She has ADD. Usually she is somewhat helpful. Lately she has been very abusive with her words. She dont want to do her chores, which give her an allowance. She whines and complains about everything we ask of her. She loves to aggravate her brothers just to hear them whine. I have gave her punishments from writing essays to taking things from her. It just seems as though nothing is working. I want her to learn responsibility and respect. How do I do that if she just doesnt listen.
FYI: She does take meds for her ADD. It usually wears off by the time she gets home from school.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have asked questions before regarding my friend and this new one really has me and her stumped. In the spring she lost her newborn daughter and now after months of confusion they finally got a headstone on the grave, they had problems with spellings and color because it is a very personal and special made stone. But a week after it was put on the grave she and I went to the cemetary and found it missing. She found out through the police that the "father" stole it but had returned it the funeral home before they found him. Now the funeral home refuses to place it on the grave because he has protested against because his name is not on their. 1 He is Not on the birth certificate. 2 He did Not pay for in any way, the funeral, the plot, or the headstone. 3 She even told him may not be the father. With all that the police and the funeral home are siding with him, they didn't even charge him for taking the stone. So our question, how would another mother handle being in this situation?

About 1 month ago, my parents were away for the weekend and I went to a party at my bffs house. We were all having a good time and when the party was over my boyfriend came back to my house! We were having a really good night and we ended up having sex! I was supossed to get my period about 2 weeks ago so on Wednesday I went out and bought a pregnancy test! I was planning on taking it this morning but my older sister who is 22 came home from college for the weekend last night and I guess it was kind of stupid of me to leave the test sitting on my bed last night! I left to go over to my boyfriends house to tell him that I was planning on taking the test this morning! I forgot that my sister was coming home from college so I figured I could leave it out because my parents were out for the night! When I got home my sister was I guess waiting for me and she was like Hey and I was like Hey! Then she was like so Whats new and I was like not much same old stuff! And then she was like O that’s all! And I was like Yeah why! Then I started to worry! I remembered that I had left it out on my bed and I was like you saw? And she was like yes! I was like O and then basically ran upstairs! I don’t know what to say to her! I have been trying to avoid my sister all day because I really don’t know what to do or say! I still haven’t taken the test yet because I’m scared of what the results could be! What should I do? My sister asked me if I wanted to talk to her about stuff but I said no! The truth is I do want to, but I’m scared and I don’t know what to do! I’m 17 by the way.

I am 25 years old and have been on birth controll for 5 yrs. My period has never been this late before and never when I've been on the pill!

The first day of my last period was Sept 10th/2007. I should have had my period start around Oct 8th but it never came! I know I missed a pill on Sept 21st and had sex, but can that 1 time make me pregnant when I'm on the pill???

I've been experiencing some odd symptoms. I have been feeling tired all of the time, My lower abdomen has been feeling bloated and crampy...and sometimes I even getting this nauseous feeling...I've noticed it mostly in the morning or when I'm getting hungry! I dont have any tenderness or pain in my breasts.

I have been really stressed out about work and personal issue's!!

I took a home pregnacy test on OCT 13th, which came back Negative! I called my doctor and he told me wait other week and do another HPT. I did my second test in the morning on OCT 20th...still negative!

On Oct 6th I had some PINK spotting that only lasted that day...and Oct 19th I had red/brown discharge...never had that before!!!????

Can anyone tell whats going on???

my husband thinks she should buy a winter coat with it and I think that is our responsibility as parents. my mom asked me to let her have it and spend it like she wants. She's a great great great kid and loving and respectful and smart. Me and my husband make 6 figures $$$ combined and I think she should just go blow this money however she wants. She mentioned buying a pair of pants at Hot Topic that are $50 and something fun for halloween. I think that's great. My husband thinks I am too easy. What do you think? I think a good kid just be given freedom.
