Parenting - September 2006

I am having a baby soon and have decided that once I have the baby (probably a month or so later) I am planning on having regular girl's nights out like once a month. My husband is totally fine with it and he encourages it but sometimes I think is this my way of not accepting my current situation - I'm a parent now and should not be going out drinking. Now I am not planning on going clubbing, just maybe a restaurant/lounge with my girlfriends (all are married or in a serious relationship). But I feel like I really missed out on those things, we were pregnant with our son on our wedding day and now I am having another and just need a release! I feel that when I didn't have children if I was out and met a woman that was out having a good old time and 2 kids at home with hubby I would think badly of her. Does anyone feel this way?

What can we learn from our children?

My answer would be to learn to look at things with wonder, as a child would. Also, how to get through mazes on video games as I get lost easily. ok, that was silly, but, it is important to play with your children.

for example, does your kid enjoy discovery documentaries more than cartoon express???
or, do they watch food network instead of bill nye the science guy??

just curious and if they do...what's their favorite "grown-up" show??

thanks!

Absent parent in my case is getting 'under-the-table jobs and moving around through different states. Child support enforcement can't catch up to him. What I have: a court order and a current location (not address) and a cell phone number (non-trackable). Police aren't cooperating, the system doesn't work without a tracking device, like a tax-paying job or car payment, credit cards, etc. I do have current communication and 1500 miles between. I send him pictures of his child. I'm low on finances to travel.

What's the most important thing, in your opinion, that you can teach your children?

My answer would be to try to put yourself in another's shoes, to understand that what you say or do affects how people react to you, to respect other people's feelings.

Im 13, I watch all the most voilent graphic movies around, I don't see any problem with it, do you?
I am 13 years old, I have seen about every new horror movie since 2003 there possibly is.

Many parents wont let their kids watch rated r or 18A films because of voilence,profanity and sex.

I see no problem with this, when I go to my dads every weekend we rent a movie (my choice) and we watch it which must be rated 18A or higher because I like the gory entertainment.

My favorite movie right now Is the Devils Rejects by Rob Zombie. If your a horror/crime movie fanatic this is a must see for sure, but make sure you saw house of 1000 corpses first =)

Here are alot of other good horrors I enjoyed that you should all check out.

Hostel
the hills have eyes
the descent
house of wax
2001 maniacs
dead and breakfast
wolf creek
silent hill
texas chainsaw massacre (2003)
house of 1000 corpses
Santa Sangre.
High Tension

I cant name em all right now but those are for starters lol.
