My daughter seems to like to have her nap about 3 hours after she wakes up in the morning. Does that seem too early? I find that other people that I talk to seem to have their kids go for afternoon naps. Do you think it makes a...

altari Whatever works best for your child, I'd say. My 2 and 3 year old daughters wake up between 6:30 and 7AM and often don't nap until 1 or 2 in the afternoon. They sleep for 1.5-2 hours, then go to bed between 7 and 8. But my oldest, at that age, wouldn't wake up...

This morning dawned dark and bleak. No sunshine, only dark clouds, no glimmer of daylight pierced the gloom. It is now just gone midday here in the UK and still the skies are dark and I have the lights on in the house just so I...

altari I hear you. I tend to hibernate in the winter. I believe it's called seasonal affectedness disorder, or something strange. Winter == sad for many people. The cold naturally makes you more tired and your body has to use more fuel to keep going. I have an...

Well, it's happened again. Some waste of human flesh has gone on a shooting spree, killing and wounding people hoping to make some lame "wo is me" statement. Once again we are going to be assaulted by the press with lies, half...

altari This just in from the associated press... Now "Robert Hawkins"'s friends are threatening a poor girl via text message and phone, for commenting negatively about the situation. Dumb little ****s...one of them sent her a threatening text message while she was...

If your friend's son hits your daughter and calls out four letter words, what would you do? If he starts kicking you and throwing your stuff around what would you do? What if he starts to play with your mechanical/electronical...

altari Depends on who it is. If it were my best friend's child or one of my cousins - I'd give them a swat on the butt it they deserved it. =) I have reprimanded other women's children before. I remember one case in which my kids were looking at this gross, huge...

altari By the time the post-partum bleeding had stopped, I had forgotten. Completely and totally. I remember talking about the pain, and being in pain...but couldn't for the life of me remember what, exactly, the pain felt like. I think it's nature's little trick to...

altari I blame all the rich, straight, white, male Protestants of the country. They're the ones keeping everyone down! They're the ones causing all this hatred! Send some rich white guy to jail, because I'm sure it's his fault. And, BTW, you forgot to mention...

altari You need to think of your resume as how you present yourself. It doesn't land you a job, but if it's funny/witty/eye catching/fits the company profile it will get you noticed. Anyway, that being said. Westerners don't write letters. The optimal reaction is...

I know you all have seen these dolls. You can't turn on the TV with out seeing eight million commercials for something of theirs. I won't allow my daughter to have them when she gets older. My husband thinks I'm being overly...

altari We're the same. And it's less of the fear of the reactions they'll have, and more of an aversion to promoting materialism. I DO see a lot of influence from TV/movies/etc on my oldest daughter (she's 5). She uses the phrases from the kids on Disney and PBS (her...

altari Try the paid-for-writing sites : Helium, AssociatedContent, SharedReviews, DayTipper and eHow. They all do pay; it's not much, but it is cash. If you're dedicated on SharedReviews, you could earn $150 from them, not counting what you earn from your referrals.

In the world of changing technology, we find some thing or the other new coming up almost every month. So what u guys reckon about the next big thing after MP3 players like ipods and MS Zunes? Could they also be interfaced with...

ipods

altari I'm not expecting too much from the Zune. I never get my hopes up with Microsoft. I think multi function players are the next thing. The iPhone is the first official wave, but companies have been doing it for a year+ already. Stereo bluetooth, which is...
