When my daughter was 4 months old up until a week ago, she slept all night with no problem. Now she actually gets out of her bed and climbs up into my bed and wants to sleep with me and my husband. I do not like this idea and there isnt enough room for her, me, and my husband. And she will not stop moving around and crying. She wants to get up and play. And no matter how late she stays up and no matter how many times she wakes up through the night, she will not sleep no later than 730 AM. And she doesnt nap a lot during the day. She takes one nap a day and it only lasts an hour at the most. And it is always around 2 or 3. What can I do?

My son doesn't listen to me. he talks back and just does what he wants. I tell him no or that I'm going to spank him and he looks at me a laughs. How do I show him who's boss without going overboard?

I have a 3 year old niece. Everytime she eats, you can see the food in her mouth. Her mom complains, but does nothing. It's disgusting because you can hear the food and saliva mixing. I told her that it is not nice to eat with her mouth open. She does'nt listen. Any advice?

I was told last year that my daughter has atopic dermatitis. She regularly will break out with rashes of different types. Sometimes it will be a fine sandpaper feeling rash...other times it is more like small pimples all over her.

The past few days she has had the small birght red pimply type of rash on her. No fever...slight itch (she only says something about it every once in a while.) The only thing she has came in contact with recently that has been different would be her new Bonzai Falls slide. We would turn the water on and let her slide for a while but once she would start getting cold I would turn it off and just let her land in the pool of water that gathers at the end of the slide. My husband thinks the bumps are from sliding with no water but my niece who was sliding with her has none on her. I was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with bumps from their slide or if you can even give me advice about the dermatitis I would be grateful! Thanks in advance!

Sometimes I feel like I am not paying enough attnetion to him. How do I know if I am? He seems happy and content to play by himself a lot. I read to him and play with him.

I know you can see when the teeth are coming through, a little white spot. My child already has 9 teeth, more are coming in but there is a darker spot on the gum instead of the white of the tooth. Is this just something from the tooth pushing against the gum? Have any of you seen anything like this?

I have a 4 year old and a 5 1/2 year old who eat all their meat that's offered to them. I don't know why she doesn't eat it. What else can I give her? She seems to be heading down the road of being a vegetarian. She loves salads, noodles, rice, etc. I need some advice.

I know kids talk a lot. I used to teach preschool. I have NEVER been around a child that talks as much as this one. SERIOUSLY. I am not over reacting, and I swear it is more than normal, many other people have said so also. From the minute she wakes up till the minute she goes to bed. She constantly is moving, talking etc. She also follows you around everywhere and is unable to play by herself. Has anyone ever had this experience? What did you come up with?
