my activity | mobler responded to a discussion called Do you think that parents are responsible for thier kids being slackers? in life. 1 month ago
I think that kid today spend to much time indoors watching television and playing on the computer. We don't allow our daughter any television time, although I do let her play the educational games on the computer. But only a little and I try not to let it be a daily thing.
I actually did some research for myself on the importance of children's playtime. If you are interested in what I found ... |

My husband actually eats more healthy food than I do. It's not that I don't want to eat healthy, it's just that I alway seem to be in such a hurry and, aside from things like yogurt, healthy food usually takes awhile.
As far as trying new things. We both love to do that. But I always want to share the experience with friends and family and he says you shouldn't experiement on your friends. |

My daughter is still learning to speak so she has quite a few words that she mispronounces. My mother says I should try to correct her. But it's just too cute.
Some of my favorites are "Cha-Cha" for chocolate and "Pur pa" for purple (she always pronounces it like two seperate words). |

Personally, I think summer is a great time for picnicking. Plus if you don't have the time or inclenation toward cooking you can stop at your local deli and pick up some great picnic foods.
I actually wrote an article for Hubpages about picnicking. It included some menu ideas. If you are interested the web address is hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Plan-and-Pack-a-Picnic_ I particularlly recommend t... |

Before I was with my husband it was something nice I could do just for me. I would spend a little extra money on something particularly cute and know that it was all for me. It was my own indulgance and it had the advantage over food indugences of not making me gain weight.:) |

I don't know. I don't like the barbies or the overly made-up dolls. But that's because they make them into sex objects. For a baby doll I don't see a problem with it being anatomically correct. Especially when a child is potty training. I know my little girl likes her dolls to be able to go potty too. |

Salam1 was probably just commenting on children's tendency to tease when things are different. But I don't know that the doll would be preceived by kids to be different. They make a million different kinds of dolls and I think the other children would not notice any great difference. (At least until they were old enough to think it was funny, as another mylotter said.) |

It's hard when your own mom is making a big deal about it. I'm with you and wouldn't care personally, but when your mother is giving you a hard time about it it can make life a real pain.
Maybe if you just don't have the doll around when grandma is visiting your mom will quit giving you a hard time. |

My daughter is two and she knows the difference between boys and girls. Not in a concrete way like adults, but she'd know the doll was different because he was a little boy and not a girl. She just wouldn't care. Like you said they are innocent at that age.
I think the non-atomically correct dolls are more for the parents than the kids. The kids are to young to know why it might be preceived... |

My mother and I have a couple of issues that we don't see eye to eye on. I've tried taking to her about them but she doesn't seem likely to change. So, since we mostly agree on our child rearing ideas I just avoid those topics where we don't.
If you have a mostly agreeable relationship with your mom I highly recommend this tactic. Grandma can only be around so much so its usually not a big d... |
