Grade-Schooler

We had our 1st football game tonight and i was asking the guys on the team what they are doing tonight after the game. they would say i dont know, i am not sure. I would ask if they knew of any parties, etc. I know they are doing something but why do think that they are avoiding saying what they are doing afterward.

An assemblywoman in California is putting a new law in front of our governor to sign. That they have to sit in a booster seat until they turn 9. How ridiculous is this. My son is seven and he's so tall people think he's about 10, like I'm really going to make him be a baby and try and fit into a booster seat.
What about people who have more than one child? They want to tax us for getting larger cars, but they want to make it impossible for us not to have one.
What do you think?

I planned a birthday party for my son who is turning 9. On my weekend. While he was with his father about 1 week before the party, he apparently wandered off from his stepmother. I agreed he should be punished but requested they handle it at their house. The father blamed me for the incident altogether. Basically, they told my son his party with me is cancelled and that is he went through with the party he would be grounded for a month. So his punishment was to cancel the party, grounded for 2 weeks with threat of another month added. Is this ok? Can my ex run my household like this???

My daughter just started Kindergarten and there is a boy that sits by her that is constantly trying to "kiss" her. He just keeps blowing her kisses and disrupts her while she is coloring. She tells him to stop, but he doesn't. I can already tell he may be a trouble maker, because on the bus he already has to sit by himself because he was bothering people. I think he lives in my neighborhood. Do I tell the teacher to move her or just let it go? I know i can't solve all her problems, but this is my baby and I don't want her first experience with school to be poor. what should I do?

He's now in Kindergarten and still goes potty in his pants. He doesn't do it at school, but, just today, he did it after being home for less than 5 minutes. He's a happy child, but, I think he's just too lazy, or too busy to quit playing to use the potty. Anyone else out there with this problem? I'm tired of washing his clothes everyday. I need help. I'm at my witt's end.... Serious answers only, please. Thanks!

if you have seen it, is it scary (at ALL)? my turning-7 y/o wants to go see it, and i thought i might take her for a birthday present, but not if it has any scary parts in it, bc she gets scared pretty easily.

she saw #1 and was okay with it, but we watched it at home.

My son is 8 and has never been a "normal" child, whatever that is. He has a really hard time paying attention, especially to detail. You can speak to him and he won't hear you (but there is nothing wrong with his hearing, I had it checked). His grades started slipping in school last year but on a test he scores higher than most kids his age. He speaks in a broken pattern because he can't keep a thought process on the right track and jumps around a lot in his thinking. I have taken him to the doc and a therapist about this but they haven't given me any good answers. Has anyone else ever dealt with this and if so I would like some advice on what works and what doesn't with a child like this. The best advice a parent can get sometimes comes from another parent that has dealt with a similar situation. Please help!

with another parent. I was trying to pull to the curb to let the kids out and she kept zooming up trying to keep me out, when I beeped at her she gestured that she wanted to go where I was trying to go. She was already at the curb, I waited for 2 cars to pull out before I tried to get in, then she beeped at me to go because I was watching to make sure my kids made it in. I WANTED TO GET OUT AND RIP HER HEAD OFF! How would you handle this situation, I feel bad because I am letting it get to me!

It started out as a wonderful, fun project. My 5-year-old and I were going through a magazine to find things that start with the letter O to cut out and glue to a peice of paper.
I sent her upstairs to the playroom to get her glue stick, and went to change the baby's diaper.
In that short time, she had snuck the scissors upstairs (bad enough to begin with...climbing stairs with scissors) and had cut her "bangs".
I spanked her butt and told her she couldn't play with the neighbors for a week. Now the problem is she's under my heels because she's bored. What's up with that?

A previous poster asked if it was ok to send their child to school with long pants and a SHORT sleeved shirt if the temperature was over 45 degrees.
And most people responded YES, it is ok.

I work in a school, and I will tell you, check your school's policy. Our policy is that they need a jacket or sweatshirt if it is under 60 degrees.

45 degrees is too cold.

What do you think?

During the day I am home with my sister because our parents are at work. It is summer, so no school.
Three days ago, it was her turn to clean the house. But she grabbed my crotch from behind, and forced me to do wash the dishes and do all her work! She was enjoying it because sometimes she was giggling. And she was not only grabbing, she was feeling them!!! I could not believe what was happening! I felt so violated and humiliated. At the end, she squeezed my balls anyway, and just stood there laughing, and then locked herself in her room. I knocked at the door and tried to speak to her but she did not talk to me. And after that I just pretended nothing happened, and she is pretending nothing happened too.
I am still a little sore. I did not tell my parents because it is too embarrassing, and bizarre.
Should I forget the whole thing, or should I do something about it??? Wtf?!

My son is six years old and in the first grade. He does very well in school, pays attention and does his work well. While doing his homework(and other various things) I have noticed he sometimes sees letters/numbers backwards. He also tends to write things backwards. Has anyone ever had their child diagnosed with dyslexia at this age? I have a touch of it myself, but wasn't diagnosed until my teens. I would like to get him tested if possible, so we can work with him better. What exactly do I need to ask? Who do I ask, his teacher?

His dad was in an accident at work and is now paralyzed from the waist down. He's still in the hospital and soon will be going to inpatient rehab in a different town. My son doesn't want to see him or talk to him on the phone and asks me to stop talking when I'm talking to his sister about it. He's in counseling, but she's not very focused on that with him (maybe time to find someone else), and I'm concerned. Any ideas or suggestions? It's really upsetting to me because I feel bad for him, and it's REALLY upsetting his dad...

I remember wanting to be in one when i was little. But my mom didn't want to spend all of the money. My neice wants to do one now, she is 6, and we do have the money for it. Do you think it is a good idea?

She doesn't have any problem with regection at all. She knows that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, but it is still fun either way. She has never done anything like this before.

Do you see anything wrong with it?
Have you ever put your kids in pageants?
Did they enjoy it?

Any other info would be great! Thanks
