I am at my wits end 8 year old won't got to bed then when he finally gets there, he gets up several times. It is like there is an force pushing him out of bed. The past two night he was up until 1030. I have no support from my husband. I say the bed time is 830 and it is a joke. I've tried several techinques including staying in the door way, not talking when putting him back. I don't give him sugar or caffiene. We exercise daily. He is a brilliant child who reads 3 grade levels above so I know he understands what I am saying but just does not listen. By the end of the day I am exhausted dealing with him, my husband and his twin brother, I have no more patience. I just don't understand why he just doesn't GO TO SLEEP. Any suggestions are helpful. But no I am not going to medicate my child. Thanks.

My son ALWAYS messes with the wall outlets, he listens to his father when he says no, but he doesn't listen to me. Not sure what I should do.

I know some people think that Quinn is for a girl, but I think it is more of a boy's name and we're going to name our son that. We're trying to decide on a middle name though. Any suggestions?

okay sooo my boyfriend and i were making out in my room just before he had to leave and everyone in my house knocks except my 19 y/o brother which herein lies the problem... he walked in on us making out and then took my laptop.
(i'm 17 btw if that even matters which it doesnt so i dont want any comments on the making out thing. i'm not sexaully active so hush!)
that was awkward phase number one!

so here the second part.
my boyfriend left my house and when he got home he txted me and told me his mom had bought him a box of condoms. i didnt believe him so he had to put his mom on speaker phone.

by accident does this mean I am not very fertile? I have read that condoms without spermicide are only 85% effective and we have always started sex then pulled out halfway and put on a condom. We have been doing this for 2 years and I haven't gotten pregnant so I am now worried that I am not all that fertile and maybe we won't be able to have any more kids, at least not without a huge effort. Do you think I am over-thinking it, do you think the only reason I havent gotten pregnant is because my husband holds it in well and none of our condoms have broken without us noticing?

I want something unusual but cute. Boy or Girl names please. Middle names arent important. Maybe something youve heard once or twice or even possibly ones youve made up and think are cute too! Thanks!

Me and my boyfriend broke up 3 weeks ago. i can count down the hrs, minutes and seconds but i'm not going to. but anyway. we talked about getting back together and decided aginst it as we are 14 and want to be friends. i'm extremly happy and grateful that we are as good of friends as we still are(walk to classes together, hang out, talk on aim all the time). but today, for some dumb reason, when i knew that i wasnt over him yet, not even close to being over him, i looked at some old convos we had had on aim. things like the first time he did the <3 thing to me, and telling me i'm awesome, and that i was the best present ever, things like that. and i have been crying ever since. i cant stand it anymore. what are some things that i can do to try and get over him???? and dont include getting a new bf, thats not gonna happen for awhile.

is my little brother gay??

he loves shopoing a ton. he is very particular about his clothes and shoes, especially.

what worries me the most is this:

he loves to sing along to musicals, like high school musical. however, he sings 'fabulous' by ashley tisdale and the girls parts in other songs.

he acts like he's into hot girls but it seems really forced. he plays football but is really wimpy about it.

is he gay? feminine? or wierd?

Ok I will make this as brief as possible. i am the step dad in our situation and have no kids of my own. My fiance and I have been together for a year and a half and she has three children 7,5,and 1. In the year and a half that we have been together I have been the childrens dad and that is what they call me. Their Father/sperm donor has had contact with them a total of maybe eight times never for more than an overnight. They have been acting worse for some reason these last few weeks and for some reason it has continued to go downhill. Their father told them that if they continued to act this way that santa would skip them and they would have no christmas at all this year. (spare me your beliefs on santa I am an adult they are children) Both me and their mother have been telling them the same thing but i thought it really was more of a motivation thing. I still went out and spent a few hundred on gifts and now their father says skip it and their mother says its up to me.

I need your advice or words of encouragement. I'm very concerned about leaving my little one (17 months). She's always been with me since the day she was born and although I feel like it is somewhat of a necesity for me to go to school for a good career in which I can work part-time and still contribute greatly financially, I can't help feeling extremely guilty about leaving her during the hours I'm at school. My mom or my husband will watch her while I'm at school, so that's not a concern, but when my oldest was younger, I was going to nursing school and I have always felt guilty about that because I felt like I didn't spend enough time with her because I was so consumed with school. I graduated and began working only to find out that I hated it, so years later I am basically in the same position and fear not spending a lot of time with my youngest. We're not doing well financially so that is why I decided to go back to school for a better career for my family that I don't hate.

I had sex on December 1st, the maybe a week later I had clear slimey discharge. I then had sex a few days later. So it's been like three weeks since all of this. Today I noticed only when I wiped that I had brownish to very light pinkish discharge. I did take a pregnancy test a week ago, but it came out negative. But now I'm starting to wonder. Do you think it's possible that I am pregnant, or could this just be a light period? And when is the best time to take another pregnancy test. Thanks everyone for any kind of help on this matter.

Shouldn't Y!Answers cut out the middle man and automatically send them a pregnancy test, a condom, a book on family planning and a hand written sticker with a smiley face on it that says "YOU IDIOT"?

I have a 12 year old daughter. I don't hit my kids or mistreat them in any way. I probably and too nice to them. Every now and then she becomes a little rebellious and disobeys me. I asked her to pick up a few items she left out before going o bed. She refused and would not do it. I asked her again more sternly and then gave her a final warning. Still she refused. So I intentially raised my voice in a loud fashion changed my epression and demanded that she do it (I think my "yelling" would have waked the dead). She got up and put it away. I then let her calm down a bit and sent her and her brother to bed. I heard her sniffling in her room. I was so tempted to go in and console her, but I felt doing so would negate my authority in her eyes and lose credibility.

She is a good kid. I just feel bad I have to do this. But it was the right thing to do right?

I know that what this really is, is the beginning of her need for independence as a teenager, but it so tough.
