How old were you when you got married? Do you think its the right time?

abednego7 @abednego7 (1060) • Philippines 19 Feb 07

Often I hear from singles that they want to explore the world up to the limit before settling for marriage. So some of them reach above a regular adult age before taking their partner into the altar. They say that one should...

houlenberg I say to each his own. There is no RIGHT time to get married. It's not an objective thing, it is totally subjective. Some people think they must experience a bunch of different life events before getting married, which takes some people into their 40s or even...

houlenberg I cannot imagine forgetting my children somewhere. I mean, once you have kids, your life is completely changed. My twins are only 5 months old and I don't even remember my life before them at all. I can barely remember what I used to do to keep myself busy....

Child Molestor on Wysteria Lane

mthomas34 @mthomas34 (18) • United States 16 Feb 07

Does anyone remember when Lynette had thoughts about the neighbor being a child molestor???? I could not believe that was happening. I totally applauded her following her instincts and informing the neighborhood but then she...

houlenberg I thought that episode was so well done. What a twist, huh? The guy totally made you think that he was NOT a child molester and that Lynette's fears were unfounded. But then, at the end, once his sister was dead, he basically admitted that he WAS a child...

houlenberg I really wouldn't call Titanic a family movie. I don't think I would let young children see such tragedy so early in their lives. If I wouldn't let them see that, then it makes sense that I wouldn't let them see a love scene like that either. If they are old...

Judging Amy

houlenberg @houlenberg (7) • United States 19 Feb 07

I absolutely LOVE the show Judging Amy. I believe it is loosely based on Amy Brenneman's family. I think her mother was a superior court judge who was one of the first women to graduate from Harvard. Amy, herself, graduated from...

houlenberg Me, too. This is on my list of my favorite movies and I, too, have memorized almost the whole thing! When I first saw it 10 years ago (I cannot believe it's been that long), I was completely obsessed with it. I even created a little webpage dedicated to it,...

Bringing children to restaurants

jenniferrose86 @jenniferrose86 (49) • United States 17 Feb 07

My husband and I brought our three year old twins to a restaurant last night and their behavior was ok. I would expect by now that they would be excellent! They are still crawling under the tables and standing up in the booths....

kids in restaurants

houlenberg I think another good idea would be to "play" restaurant at home. You and your family can pretend that you are out at a restaurant and behave the way you would want to behave when you are out. That way, your children get used to the idea of behaving a certain...
