Toddler & Preschooler - February 2007

I wanted her to get it now so it will be easier but I took her round her cousins house 5 weeks ago who had chickenpox and they played together all day but nothing. Also 3 weeks ago my friends son had chickenpox so we put them together but still nothing!
What is going on?
She is 17 months old and I breastfed for 12 months, but her cousin is 3 and still breastfeeding and she got it so it can't be that can it?

Hello fellow moms and dads. I have a 2year old and an almost empty bank account. I want to stay home with my baby until the age of 2.9 or 3 and in order to do this I need to work form home. I am having serious problems finding real work at home oppurtunities, everything I come upon on the internet requires an investment, which I don't have. It is very important for me to stay home with my child until 2.9 or 3, I don't want to dump my baby in daycare full time to work so i am wondering if there are any moms or dads working form home that pull in at least $800 a month without having to put in a serious investment? I only have about $20 to invest. Please your ideas and experiences will help.

My three year old has too much mouth. I am constantly punishing her for her "sas-mouth".I want to play and hold and cuddle with her not fight. The way she yells and dosen't respect me or her father makes me feel like i've given birth to a 25 year old. Anyone with a similar problem, hope, or advise??? Please help!

I'm taking my girls for their 4th time tomorrow. They have such a blast when we go. The only thing is, I never see other parents taking their young kids out on the skating floor. I was wondering if anyone else does this with their kids. My girls are nearly 2 and 3 so I know they aren't too young. They love it.

My 21 month old little girl is addicted to her "baba". She can't sleep without it and of course it will rot her teeth. How do I wean her and get her to sleep on her own normally?

He's had serious mental medical issues this year including doctor having him on the wrong medicine. He's been expelled and they want him to go to school where all the Juvinile Hall kids go to school I feel this will not be good for him mentally. I need to know if I can give him permission to drop out for the rest of this year and restart next semester. We know he'll have to repeat this school year and we're willing to do this. This is also in the state of Texas if that makes a difference.

Thanks for any help.

My son is 5 and in Kindergarten. He has always hated his homework, which all he has to do is write the letter of the week and draw 3 pictures that start with that letter. I always get very involved & help him, letting him trace my finger to see how to write the letter, and even getting my own peice of paper & showing him exactly how to draw certain pictures. Well, here lately, He's been horrible at trying to get him to do his homework. He gets overly dramatic when he's upset or frustrated. When he does his homework, he sits there for 30 minutes, or longer, and does nothing. Then he complains"I hate homework. ""Homework is stupid"" I want to get a bad grade, I don't care." He messes up on purpose, then erases, again & again, sometimes ripping the paper. The last time he pulled this, today, I simply picked up his paper, ripped it in half, and said "Fine, if you want a bad grade, you'll get one." and threw it away. He bust into tears. Was this too harsh? Should I give him another chance?

I havn't put him on the back burner so to say. He is a wonderful little boy who potty broke himself at the age of 2. He seems to know what he wants to say but he just can't get it out and it would cause him to studder...although he does have trouble with saying the s sounds. he makes the th sound instead. The actual studdering occured after I brought home another baby! Suggestions would greatly be appreciated.

I at first thought she was teething b/c she'd lay on her somache and bite on the tile on the floor. She eats books, and any paper she gets her hands on, but the other morning I had to move her crib away from the wall b/c I noticed she'd eaten some of the paint off it. I thought it was just a one time thing, but I caught her again today standing at the wall just chowing down. Could it be teething? I've heard it could be calcium deficiency, but she drinks a ton of milk.
