they are having a hard time coming up w/a girl name w/a special meaning. Any ideas? If not, what are your favorite unique baby names? Or what are the worst names you've ever seen?

Hi. I have a daughter who is in her teen-age year. It's difficult for me to communicate with her now. She's always quiet and talk to us just once in a while. Can you please help me to deal with this?

acmj1985 First of all, Good luck with a teenage daughter! I think that if you keep opening up to her then she will know that she can come talk to you if she needs to. The best thing with kids is to open and honest with them so then they are more likely to be open and...

mariedenae @mariedenae (335) • United States 24 Feb 09

Does a child growing up in a home without a mother or a father have a BIG impact on them? I grew up with my mom as the primary person raising me along with my grandmother and my aunts. My father was around, and had remarried...

acmj1985 I think that a household with both parents is always better but is not always possible. I think that if the parent that is there can play both parts then the child should be fine. I do believe that every boy needs a strong male figure to guide them and do boy...

acmj1985 I'm against underage drinking even though I did as a child. I'm now 26 years old and have been in rehab twice. My parents didnt even care how often I drank so I would invite all my friends over and we would all drink at my house every weekend. Needless to say...

acmj1985 That is horrible! I hate to see when wildlife is hurt! That's awesome that they were able to help her though. The fact that they are releasing her back into the wild is also very good.
