Do you think the average 14 year old boy/girl is innocent still when it comes to extremely fowl words, complex sex positions, sexual words and violence?



For example, a mother might not want their 14 year old watching a rated R movie because of their innocents.

What do you think?

k do u think this is rite, in stonewall m.b. the jr. high is trying this nutrition break thing and to make sure that the kids are exercising they broke up the gr. 7&8's into small groups, and each group is either in the gym, in the square cup stacking or outside FORCED to play soccer, football, 4square or walk around the school. During the 1st 20 min. the gr.8 are exercising and the 7's are eating, then the 2nd half its the opposite. And just to let you know the kids are separated from their friends!

do you think this is right ... should i start a petition to stop this?

I'm almost positive I'm pregnant. But it would be very very early. I had to go to the hospital a few days ago to get some tests done and they wanted to do x-rays of my kidneys and stomach. I told the tech that I could possibly be pregnant and he did a urine test which came out negative, obviously, because I just ovulated about a week ago.

My question is, if I did get pregnant this month but hadn't implanted yet or was so early along that it didn't even show up on a test, could the x-ray have hurt my baby in any way? And if so, the extent of the damage that would have been done?

I only had 2 pictures taken- I think it was supposed to be more but because I was hesitant about having them in case of a pregnancy he only did the 2.

So Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant at 16 and the question of how to talk to your child about the taboo subject is being brought up.
I myself am pregnant right now at the age of 22. I will be having a little girl of my own in 2 1/2 months and when she does get to the age of dating this is how I plan to do it...
Most people believe that putting them on birth control is condoning the behavior, but I vibrantly remember my teenage years because they were not that long ago. Whether my mother put me on the shot or not I was still going to have sex. Yes I hope my child will wait and I will definately instill in her that she should. Birth control is not 100% effective and condoms sometimes break, but using the 2 will help reduce it greatly. I will explain to my child that pregnancy is not the worse thing that could happen and that there are uncurable diseases out there. Not to mention the disrespect of being the easy girl.

My mom is always invading my privacy and when she notices that I don't like to talk to anyone she thinks I'm a monkey. Is she misguided about this?

Alright, I have been on birth control pills for almost 3 years. About 6 months ago I switched birth control. Everything has been fine and normal. Well now, I'm having some pregnancy symptoms. I'm having tender breasts, headaches, backaches, dizziness, cramping, and some nausea not enough to make me sick though. I haven't thought too much about it until today when I started bleeding. It's not a normal blood, it's not as heavy as normal periods, and it's really brown. The weirdest part is, I am not supposed to get my period for another 10 days. I have never had an early period with birth control or before I was on birth control. I've always had a pretty normal cycle. I figure I will take a pregnancy test after I'm supposed to get my period, I just wanted to see what you thought. Could I be pregnant and be having implantation bleeding?

I thought I had a good medical reason for not breastfeeding my son but I have started to realise that if I had tried harder I may just have been able to breastfeed. It is eating away at me and whenever I see a breastfeeding related question on here I burst into tears because I so regret not breastfeeding my son. Has anyone been in a similar position and how did you overcome this guilt?

How do you get a second opinion on your pregnancy when no OB will touch because the previous diagnosis? My current OB said that I will miscarry and that the baby has been dead for three weeks, but she never rechecked my levels and I still have terrible morning sickness. I have had no spotting or cramping and just want to make sure that she is right. No one here wants to see me because of liability issues. Please help.

Any suggestions on this? I don't use a lot in my food but definitely like to sautee it with onions in almost all staple pasta or egg dishes. It's been 6 plus years since a baby and I didn't eat much garlic back then. THANKS IN ADVANCE!

He was 20 1/2 inches @ birth. He fell off his growth chart, but developmentally he's fine, and all the intial tests came back clean (x-rays, bloodwork, scans of head and abdomen)
Has anyone else heard of a baby this size at 1 year? (about 18 lbs, little less than 27 inches)
I'm just so worried!!

I saw a Y!A answer where the mom wanted to use the first name "Kai," which she said meant "keeper of keys." A responder stated that it meant "food" in the Maori language.

I recall an Indian girl named Afross in my French class in high school. The teacher called her "Affreux" or "Affreuse," which is French for terrible, ugly, awful. He thought it was funny.

How about "Taro" which is "first-born son" in Japanese, but in English is a root vegetable like a yam?

Any others?

I had a baby Nov-9-2006 and another Nov-13-2007, if I got pregnant right away on accident, will it hurt me or my fetus. I was going to get an IUD at my six week check up but I am worried because my husband and I had sex once and my check up is next week. Would I know on time to get an IUD, I don't want to hurt the baby if its in there. Could I be pregnant one month after having a child. I am breastfeeding does that stop ovulation. Please give advice because I am worried. Thanks. God bless.

I know here is like a myth where if you crave salty stuff, you'll have a boy, and if you crave sweet stuff, you'll have a girl?

Was it that was with you? Or was it like, totally different?

In the middle of the night I feel so upset that I want to hit something. So I put the baby down to cry and go to my own bed. I am a very good mother, but he is 6 months old and still wakes up 4 times at least! I am not waking up well anymore. And when he eats and than wont' go back to sleep, I can't seem to handle it. I am a very loving person that doesnt' fucntion at nightime (I was fine for hte first 3 months, and than I just couldnt' seem to wake up properly 4 times a night or more). And I put him down and just leave. I feel so bad, but in the mornings and day, I am fine. but at nighttime when he is screaming, I just want to hit something and burst into tears. I dont' think I am sleep deprirved because I nap lots! So I do get to sleep.

My newborn loves to lay on his back and look around. But he throws up every time he is on his back. If I keep him on his back, he keeps throwing up. He doesn't do this while sitting up. The hardest thing is that I am breast feeding so I don't have an unlimited supply of food for him if he throws up too much. I even have to lay him to sleep on his side because he vomits all night if I don't. Why does this happen and how can I stop it???
