Our friends have let their child sleep with them since birth and he's now five years old. This seems so wrong! They now have another child on the way. They say they don't mind him being there, but won't he eventually be teased for sleeping with his parents? At what age is this inappropriate?

to talk to your kids about sex? My 7 year old first grader came home today and asked his brother (9years old) if he was a virgin (although he pronounced it aversion)

I asked him where he heard that and what he meant...he said he didn't know what it means but some middle school kids were standing outside the fence the other day while his class was on recess and asked the kids on recess if they were virgins.

I think the school should pay better attention to who is standing there talking to the kids. Should I go talk to the school about this or should I just teach my 7 year old about sex? I feel like it's too young but I don't know maybe it's not.

My friend has a five year old daughter. Trust me, it's not myself, I don't fancy children enough to babysit, let alone have my own. This child was recently kicked out of her school for being violent with the other children too many times, including an incident in which she broke a magnifying glass and chased another child with the broken glass pieces. The other night, she told me she likes to hurt herself because it feels good...followed by punching herself in the head. Her parents both ground her and tell her it's wrong, but they've done nothing to prevent anything from happening. She is only five years old and at that age most children don't experiencing hurting themselves for fun, or admit to doing it because it feels good. There is nothing that I can do to help, other than my many attempts to try and get the parents to have her see a psychiatrist. Until they help her, is there anything I can do, as a friend, to help prevent such violence in a child?

Well My 7 Yr. Old Nephew Loves Saving His Money To Buy Games And What Not. And I Was Saving My Money Up For A Mall Trip That I Was Going On With My School, And I Need Atleast $50. I Had $4 In My Pocketbook, and My Dad And I Went To Pick Up A Pizza And When I Came Back My $4 Was Gone. I Asked Him About It And He Just Said He Didnt Have It, We Argued For About 10 Min. Before My Sister And Younger Nephew Said They Both Saw Him Take It And Put It In His Green Wallet. Of Course He Kept On Denying It. Well My Dad Told Him That If He Wanted To Lie About It Fine, Because God Could See Everything And That He Would Get Punished By God. Well I Guess He Started Feeling Consious Because After Everyone Settled Down, He Followed Me Upstairs And Said "Hey TT I Did Take It..." And I Said "Okay Bub, I Guess You Can Keep It Because I Really Just Want You To Tell The Truth" Was I Right To Let Him Keep It? I Mean I Felt Really Bad For Yelling At Him. I Really Needed The Money But I Feel Better.

Please let me know of anything you reccomend I could get him that would help. He does well on his spelling tests and is able to write sentences but when it comes to reading he struggles. I practice with him everynight and use flashcards as well.

mark has a 7 yr old son that he has joint custody who he is totally detacated to. He gets such joy from being with his son its all he can talk about. We are to be married next mon. and looking at houses to buy and I happened to just say something about a nursery and he just ignored me. Later he said to me he hoped I would not try and push him into having a child and if I wanted one it would be a deal breaker. I was in shock as he loves his son so much and wants to be with him 100% I guess i just thought he would what one with me too. When i asked why all he gave me was excuses nothing that made any sence. Now his child was planned not an accedent and was the only reason that keep his marrige going as long as it did. 1st marrige. So can anyone tell me why he would be so against having a child with me when he loves his 1st child so much?

My daughter who will be 9 in april has developed this weird obession within the last 3 yrs. She thinks all her stuffed animals are real, and they talk. She truly believes they are like humans! She is especially attached to one called "pink Panther" he's a panther and he's pink with white dots all over him. He's so filthy, and needs to be cleaned in the washer, but she won't allow it! She thinks he will drown in the washer.

One time she asked me to hand him to her, and I picked him up and kinda tossed him to her in the air. OMG this was the wrong thing to do. She completly freaked out on me. Saying I scared him, and she thought I broke his leg by throwing him that way! she was crying hysterically, and she said she hated my guts and pink panther did to.

She never takes him with her when she stays the night at a friends house out of fear they will tease her or be mean to him. But she calls all day and night asking me about him. If he's eaten dinner, ect.

It's just weird.

I lost my temper today and slapped him. He cries non-stop over everything that doesnt go his way, we were baking cookies together last night and I told him to go wash his hands before we start, but he couldnt get his sleeves rolled up, so he proceeds to throw a huge tantrum, today I took him and my son to a playground, and another kid got a ball he wanted to play with (not his ball) and he started screaming and crying, throwing stuff, yelling, etc. I dont know what to do, I hate that kid, he truly believes the world revolved around him and him only. I make a rule, he goes behind my back to get his dad to break it, w/out saying he already spoke to me about it. Every mealtime, every outing turns into a nightmare because he throws a fit. This is going to break up our marriage. Dad takes his side and defends him, all I want is peace and for that kid to stop being a baby. He is in trouble at school all the time.

My son has the worst breath sometimes. Horribly bad! I get him to brush his teeth and it still happens sometimes. I don't want him to get made fun of at school for it. Is there anything I can do? Anything he can eat to prevent it? He hates mint toothpaste he thinks its too hot. And I know he cant really gargle. I brush his tongue and cheeks too. Thanks!

My 6 year old daughter rides the school bus home everyday ... They leave the school at 3 and she gets to her grandma's house at about 3:30 or a lil after until i get off work and come and get her .... Her school bus driver is a very mean man .. My daguhter tells me he screams all the time and hollers at them to shut up ( not mind you I do NOT tell my daughter to shut up at home I do not like another man telling her to shut up on the school bus ... He has even thrown away a paper airplain a friend of hers made her .... They were not throwing it he just made it for her to take home ... He constantly screams and gets my daughter very upset and sad to the point where she cries to me when i pick her up ... Personally I think this is mental child absuse my creaming all the time ... He screams so loudly people outside the bus can hear him .. Children are not allowed to colorin in books, talk to anyone in front or hehind them .. Its a little ridiculous ..
