Parenting - December 2006

, I dont have any job skills, dont work,and totally depend on a money controlling monster.
He wont help me with my student loans, like he said would when I was pregnant, hates the idea of working, wont pay for daycare, I have no friends anymore,he wont get me a car so I can get out, and he always forgets what I say.
Whenever I say I want to leave he threatens me with ur child by saying get out of his house (he owns it) and sign our son over.
I feel trapped, how am I suppose to get a job if I cant get daycare to look after him? My common law husband works mostly out of town as well.
I am depressed, I know why and I cant do nything about it.
I cant believe this is my life, this is not what i ever thought it would be.
I am such a loser.

There was a little girl and her mother walking through the park one day and they saw two teenagers having sex on a bench.

The little girl says, "Mummy, what are they doing?" The mother hesitates then quickly replies, "Ummm they are making cakes."

The next day they are at a zoo and the little girl sees two monkeys having sex. Again she asks her mother what they are doing and her mother replies with the same response, "Making cakes."

The next day the girl says to her mother, "Mummy, you and Daddy were making cakes in the lounge last night, eh?" Shocked, the mother asks, "How do you know?"

She says, "Because I licked the icing off the sofa."

Why does the nurse sometime slap your butt before an injection there? Has anybody experienced this? What'd you do after?

It kind of freaked me out.

one of two children, 4 years old, has a shower with their Dad when they visit him everyother weekend, the other child does not. the child that does have showers does not at home. And it has a nickname of "slippery seal" game. I feel really uncomfortable about the situation and so my question is when do i step in and say No that it is not appropriate to shower that an adult showers with a child.

Considering that its fact that very short men have much harder lives than the general population (make less money, date much much less - if at all, or remain an involuntary virgin for life) - would any of you abort your MALE son if you knew that he was only going to grow up to 5'4" or shorter? Researchers in Sweden have found that short men are most at risk for suicide anyways-

I wish my father never had kids with my mother. Height is almost always passed on through the womens side. My mother is only 5'0" and my father is 5'10" - I have to suffer my mothers genetic sins and live my life at 5'4". I'm a 23 year old Stanford psych student who has never dated and chances are I will never date due to my repulsive height. Women say that height is not important - but thats not at all true - height is everything and now I have to suffer as a 5'4" cripple.

And please, no "god" or "Jesus" answers - those concepts are rationally meaningless.

I look around and I see all the beautiful babies and then you look at the mother and she is like 14 years old!!! Why are kids having kids? Parents need have a better hold on their children! I hate the fact that there are so many parents out there who don't give a rip if their daughter is having sex and getting pregnant. It is sickening to even hear them when they brag about their 14 year old daughter being pregnant with their grandchild. It also makes me sick to think about all the women in the world who can't have kids and yet all these stupid little girls are sleeping around having kids left and right. I know life isn't fair...but it is just so sad. What kids don't realize is that they are ruining every chance that they had at a real future. Some people may disagree with me but I don't care. Opinions are like assholes...everyone has one...

Ok well I am currently pregnant at 34 weeks with my first child a son. Which I could not be more then happy over. But then there is a problem the father and I just started talking about 6 days ago. We had not talked.or seen eachother in about 5 months. Ok well he found me and called me and begged me to give him one more chance. I do love him more then anything but the problem is he has a 8 month son by someone else. How do I know that he really does love me and our son? He says he wants to marry me and not let me go again forever. He is the one that found me again and has taken time off to be here when our son is born and wants to be here and love me he says. What should I do I am so confused. It is not that he is not a good father to that one but that one was not planned and our was just do to our differences we decided time apart was the best. Does he love me and our son? Can things work out between him and I? Can I not feel that he loves the other babys mom?

Is spanking a 17 year old girl for name calling an appropriate punishment? I think not. Also, when I was 15 or 16 I had my door taken off for fighting with my brothers. DOES ANYONE ELSE SEE WHY THAT IS WRONG? Your a teenager and you want privacy, especially in your room. I had to hide in my closet and change because my two brothers would run up and down the stairs and would look in my room all the time. I wont spank a kid over the age of 14, and I wouldnt take a door off of a kids room over the age of 11. Is that wrong?

Regardless of the center of their child, does the mother and father of a child make equal 50/50 contributions to the genes of the child?

I'm thinking of the type of kid who goes to college at 8, has an IQ off the charts, runs a large charity organization by his/her self, and is best friends with presidents and Nobel laureates. (Yes, such kids do exist although they are rare)

Do they have the capacity to make all the same moral judgements that adults can make or are they just little kids with unusual talents? Anyone a parent of such a kid?

(I know this is unlikely to find you given that they are about .009% of the population or something like that but its worth a try)

Okay what is wrong with all these parents who don't spank their children?they say they talking to them,taking away the telephone or computer or video games.And OMG some parents even give their kids "time out".What happened to spankings?Nothing works better than that.Can't they see that nothing else works as good if it works at all.And when your kids get to old for spankings (14-18) slap 'em.Cuz at teen age taking away a couple luxurious privileges ain't doin nothing either.White people these days.uhhhh.tell me what is up with parents who resent in spanking thier children?

why do ppl do this, its so cruel, some do it to let ppl know their baby is a girl, but thats stupid, all you have to do is dress them like a girl or simply open your mouth and tell ppl, if ppl all over started doing this to their dogs i could guarantee animal rights activists would step in, dont you think that ppl that do this to their little babies should be charged with child abuse, if they shoved a needle thru any other part of their childs body they would be, so why is the ear OK, cuz it looks pretty, thats so stupid, what do you think, should they be arrested

a stay home mom, my husband works out of town and does not want me to have a job (insecure, thinks Ill leave or something) anyways, I told him I wanted a car and he can afford another car, he said he would get me a car 5 months ago and in the last 5 months has had plenty of money to do so, he just keeps making excuses to NOT buy me one (used) I am getting fed up with this and I have decided that I was done being nice and have since cut off from sex (sex only) and told him he wont get any until I get a car, I have said I would get a job and he said "why, ill get you a car" and hasnt yet.
He wants to be a contolling wench, well now I will be.

When he is out of town, I cant go anywhere, busses here are not always on schedule and to get anywhere takes like 50 minutes, or asking someone for a ride, but when they say 4 they mean 7.
Also "our" money is not our money but to him our means "his" money, so I cant just go out and buy a car.

Some parents do it in the case of extreme disrespect, but in my opinion it's never acceptable. I think it's even illegal.
