Toddler & Preschooler - November 2006

I try to save money by buying shoes for my 2 year old on ebay, anyone up on the "style" and brand that is in right now? Often times they sell brand new shoes but I am not sure how outdated they are. thanks a bunch!

My 2 year old doesn't eat. He will only eat french fries, pancekes, yoghurt and grapes. He drinks milk, but I'm worried. Should I be?

This is the first time I've met my childs teachers at his pre-school and I don't like their vibes even though they treat my boy well. What do I do to get over it?

Here is my situation my son is 2 years old just a little over 3 feet tall. At night we have to put his gate up in front of his door other wise he will just keep coming out. I gave him the benefit of the dought one night and I wound up staying up with him until 2 am! But now he has learned how to climb the gate! We have even raised the gate off the floor and he still climbs it. I don't want to let him take over on when his bed time is I have had a schedule for him since day one and I am not about to break it just because he doesn't want to go to bed. He doesn't have a nap anymore. He also has a little sister she is only 2 months old. I am at a loss of what to do. Any suggestions ......and only seriouse ones please

My kids are 1, 2.5 and 4....and we have tons of little toys. I am looking for something other than those plastic bins or canvas totes. Besides those, I have some nylon storage/toy bins. They are fine, but I feel like sometimes it looks even messier. Or perhaps I need something better than what we already have. Has anyone found shelving, bins or anything else that works well for them? For ex, some piece of furniture from a store---like Ikea, Target? Toy box from somewhere? Something that works well if you have a lot of pcs, like Mr Potato-head?

My son is 22 months.. whenever we tried to discipline him when he is naughty, he will then bang his head against the sofa or hit his head with his hand. I knew that he is trying to get our attention. We tried many ways from stopping him.. like distracting him with something else.. not looking at him when he does that and many.. sometimes he also hit his head without any particular reason. I find it hard to discipline him as he really doesn't listen to me. What should I do???

does anyone have any advice as to what I can do to stop this? I don't want their adult teeth that are coming in to be messed up because of their habit. Thank you

What can I do? I am afraid her teeth are going to rot! Her teeth don't look bad now but they can get bad if she keeps being like this. And when I do try, she bites me!

She has been potty trained for about ten months now but she still has to wear a pull up to bed. How do I get her to understand to go to the potty at night? I never had this problem with my son and I just don't know what to do.

I've been training my daughter for a while now and over the past few days I havent left the house so i can concentrate on training her. So for the past 2 days she has been going to th potty or asking to go to the toilet without ANY accident **huge smile**

Anyway my mother (7kids of her own) and my aunt (2kids) have said that they think it would be best putting her to bed in pants instead of a nappy as it will only confuse her, and dont giver her anything to drink at night. BUT my mother-in-law (2kids) thinks shes too young to be going to bed without a nappy...


HELP... need more opinions

many thanks XX


Ps.. My daughter will be 2 in March

My son is very well behaved at school- sometimes very quite and soft spoken. But when he comes home- he shouts, laughs loudly to the point of irritation and simply does not listen, often hits his baby sister who is 14 mths old.
Both my husband and i work and within 5 mins of either of us being at home with- we end up shouting or screaming at him. I sometimes loose it and then hit him.
I tried timeout- all he does -by standing there and crying immensely, i tell him to shut up - but he bawls away or coughs as if he is going to throw up.
Sometime i try the counting ritual - where i tell him i will count till 3 and on the 3rd count i will hit him... and again- he waits for me to count till 3 and then he moves.
I am so disappointed - that i feel i have failed as a parent to get his respect.
Simply every minute i spend with him is a struggle- he is either running like crazy or hitting my daughter or not eating his food or drinking his milk. I end up shouting at him ALL the TIME. HELP
