boyer_megan I dont write my own patterns, but I do take things from different patterns, and combine them. I guess thats as close as I will ever get..... but I am happy to use bits and peices to make them look a little more like my own.

Are you a pattern 'junkie'?

bonbon50 @bonbon50 (659) • United States 16 Feb 07

Just like with recipes I'll never make, I collect crochet patterns! I know there are some that I'll probably never make and yet every time I sit down to sift through them and 'weed' some out I basically end up keeping them all....

At what age did you start your baby on solids?

sarahkskeeters @sarahkskeeters (235) • United States 15 Feb 07

Do you experience the grandparent takeover?

mariazain @mariazain (11) • Malaysia 18 Feb 07

I'm a new mum. Fairly new at least. My parents don't see me as a mum though but they see me as their daughter. Sometimes I feel that they view my daughter as their daughter too! They insist I spend every waking moment with them...

boyer_megan I think that it was not about your child seeing it as a color thing, she saw something that she did not understand and she questioned it. Awww...to be that innocent. One time my little brother asked my mom, why the man (in front of them in lines) well, why the...

boyer_megan I do not know that an ultimatum would be good for her right now. i am sure his actions stress her out as much as it stresses you. She may be afraid of what he will do if she tries to leave. Offer her help, sit down with her with information from local womens...

Do you think it's ok to leave a 13 year old home alone sleeping?

ShadyGrove @ShadyGrove (996) • United States 18 Feb 07

My husband thinks it would be ok to leave our 13 year old home alone sleeping for us to go out to an early breakfast. Our 11 year old gets up earlier and would go with us. I totally disagree and do not think that the 13 year...
