He's 10 and I think he is scared. I know he will have a lot of fun if he ever got there and its centered on all his favorite activities. I'm just not sure how to convince him.

my 1yr. old has had this diaper rash for about a month. i have tried every kind of ointment and none really work that well. the rash will start to clear up but when she has a bowel movement it automatically gets worse again. also her stool has been runny lately. i change her constentely so she isn't in a soiled diaper for long. i am going to call the dr. tomorrow, but does anyone have any tips for the meantime?

i am dating and have a child with a man that has another child with an ex of 3 years. last year the mother of his child passed away suddenly in a car accident. the child is 2 and a half. my boyfriend wants to get custody but i am worried. he doesn't commit himself to our child completely already. i'm worried he won't his son either. is it selfish to not want to get the child for fear i will be the only caretaker? what do i do? i'm so young and a first time mom myself.

I am getting married in a few days and I am stuck!! My fiance' has a 6 year old son and we get along really good (when he comes with us) but lately he has been telling us on the days that we are supposed to get him that he dosent want to come with us and that he didnt want to be in our wedding (my fiance' was heart borken) we pay child support but sometimes he makes me so frustrated that I want to tell him to just sign off on him. I know it dosent sound right and my fiance' should take care of his child, but he just makes me so mad...do these thoughts make me a horrible step-mommy to be??

There sure seems to be a lot of strange names being used. What names have you come across? I knew someone who named their daughter after the dad. His name - Rusty, Her name - Gusty.

She eats a reasonable variety of veg but will only eat apples. Won't touch meat/pasta/rice etc won't eat pizza. Have tried hiding things in other things;cooking with her; trying one new food a week-nothing works. If she hasn't tried it before she will not even try one bit despite star charts everything we can think of. Rest of the family will eat anything-any ideas beyond starving her in to submission?

-play outside, in the neighbourhood, unsupervised?
-walk to the store alone?

Not looking for right or wrong, just opinions and experiences. Thanks!

i know that people are getting married later and later...26+ and mid 30s even...but it seems so terrible that if you want to start a family 30 seems old...by time your first child is in college you will be 50!...[yes being older you will be more responsible and have more resources at your disposal [ie. money] but it seems you will have less energy..to play with kids...there will be more of a generational gap..AND NOT ONLY DO YOU have to worry about raising your kids but say your kids are around 10, 7, and 5 ...that means you are around 40 and YOUR PARENTS are getting to be in their 60s...so you have to start taking care of them!

i mean i'd much rather have 3 kids in my early 20s...that way i get through with them sooner! lol get my life back...get them off to college and still be fairly "young" enough to enjoy the rest of my life.

what are your thoughts?

my daugthers father is a drug user i was with him for 10 years, and was a drug user myself until i got pregnat. I quit for her and i expected him to do the same. But after 3 years of waiting and his drug use got worse, plus he threatened to hurt me in front of our daughter while high on drugs, i gave up and got custody papers written up where i have full custody, and he has to do 6 consecutive months of clean drug testing before he can see his daughter. I let him talk to her on the phone but that is it. Lately though she has been wanting to see him and i try to explain to her, but she is only 4 and dosnt understand why she cant see her dad. I am keeping her from her dad till he is clean, but its hurting her not to be able to see him at all, is this the right thing to do?

Any suggestions on what I can do while my 11 mo. old naps during the day? There's only so much cleaning I can do, otherwise I just wait for her to wake up and click away on the computer.
