clairemn Hi, I am actually kind of jealous because I am in Scotland and it has been wet, cold and rainy all day! But the weather is different every day here and it could be sunny tomorrow although that is unlikely haha! Although I have been travelling to hotter...

Just a question for the mummies, mums, mommies, moms, mammas and mothers out there! I have a 4 and a half month old and am still breastfeeding her. People are very quick to judge on this topic but I have to say that breastfeeding...

clairemn Hi, thanks for your response and sharing your experiences. It's interesting to hear the different reasons why women sometimes need to stop breastfeeding, such as with your daughter getting thrush. I'm not sure yet when I will have to go back to work, but I...

they haven't shown it in so long, people will have forgotten all about it. What a careless and lack of regard for the viewers way to end a series. No one will notice when it suddenly reappears for the final episodes. Just another...

clairemn I'm in the UK and they just showed the one where Mike was killed last week. I was soo upset and annoyed- they always kill off the good characters!! But here in the UK they did the same thing with Desperate Housewives and stopped showing it halfway through a...

When do you think is the ideal or the right age to get married and why?

7 responses

clairemn I am 26 and getting married this year. In general I would say the right age to get married is when you are in love and have found the right person. Mid twenties is good though because you have gotten to know yourself better than when you were a teenager and...

clairemn Hi, thanks for your response! You still did really well breastfeeding for five months with your first, especially as you had to go back to work. Congratulations on being pregnant again and good luck next month! : )

Isn't it depressing when you get diagnosed with cancer when you're in your 20's? I was one of the few who got it and I've had patients my age going through radiation therapy in the same hospital. Which helped me realize I'm not...

clairemn Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your illness. Are you still going through treatment? I wish you all the best. My twin brother had cancer twice when we were in our late teens. He has now recovered, although he has to go for annual check ups. He handled it so well,...

Have you guys heard of diaper discipline? It's a process in which the child or teen who is incontinent against his or her parents' or caregivers' will (purposely bedwetting or wetting the clothes) or is naughty wears a diaper...

clairemn Hi, I have never heard of diaper discipline before, and like you say, that puishment is insane! I would say that the story you describe is almost verging on pschological abuse to the child! There are other ways to discipline children! (Although when it comes...

clairemn Hi, I've never heard of that kind of punishment before! Like you say, that punishment sounds insane and almost verging on psychological abuse to the child! So, no I absolutely don't agree with the punishment, there are other ways to discipline children!

it's really rediculus to see that most of the people try to show off themselves.. but the truth is that they are just opposite to their fake personality.......

fake personality

clairemn It is very annoying when people are fake, I agree. I think the reason they are fake is because they are insecure and lack confidence in their true self and want to show themselves in a different light, but if they were just themselves they would probably be...

I like to read and also to write poetry that rhymes, but rhyming poetry doesn't seem to be as popular as it used to be (unless you count song lyrics). Do you like to read or write poetry that rhymes? What are your thoughts?

clairemn Thanks for your opinion. I agree with you.

clairemn Ok so maybe things could start going wrong in Fred's life. For example if he was a guitar player or something and right before a gig or competition the string on his guitar is cut. No-one knows why and he thinks it's someone from a rival band but then later he...

clairemn Congratulations on your pregnancy! It is nobody else's business and as long as you and your husband are happy that's all that counts. I sometimes wish I had a bigger family. I think it's rude to say to someone they're crazy for having another child, but try...

clairemn Hi! That sounds cool, I love playing the Sims 2 although I have no idea how to make movies or anything like that. I think Sims movies are really impressive. Your plot sounds good, so does the Fred think the teenager he sees is a ghost? Does the viewer know...

clairemn I'm glad you had a good time in Scotland! I am from Scotland and despite the weather I think it is a good place for tourists to visit. Like you said, it has an intersting history and it is also very pretty.

clairemn King David's words are beautiful and inspire faith and hope (even in someone not particulary religious like myself). I love Edgar Allan Poe too, I think he wrote some of the best rhyming poems and due to the emotion he exprsees they are still relevant to...

clairemn Thanks for your response. I like both dark and light poems to and I believe it's definitely a good thing to express yourself through poetry when going through difficult times or experiencing strong emotion. I think not all rhyming poetry has to be sweet and...
