jkg0679 Are we allowed to choose genders too? lol If so, I'll keep the boy and girl I have now and go for 1 more girl. Really though, I want 2 more, but the hubby will only allow me to have 1 more (at least that's what he thinks! lol).

jkg0679 I don't know why women do this, but it is sickening. I think it probably happens everywhere. I can't understand why it is happening here in America where you presumably can drop your unwanted baby off at the police or fire station no questions asked. It's a...

Is it safe to have CAT as a pet when a 2-1/2-year-old kid is at home?

sharay @sharay (2769) • India 19 Jun 08

I like cats but have not got one since my mom says that it is not good to have a cat (she does not say "no" for a dog though) around when my kid is so young that it might cause some health problems when she starts playing with...

jkg0679 I have always had cats, even though I also have small kids. My son is 15 months now and my daughter is 8. They have never experienced health issues by being around the cats. I do know that it is not recommended to have kittens if you have kids under 2 or 3...

Is it becoming too dangerous to sell lemonade?

AnjaP @Rollo1 (16679) • Boston, Massachusetts 18 Jun 08

When I was a kid, setting up a lemonade stand was a typical way for kids to cool off and make a few pennies while learning about being industrious and working for what you want. But nowadays, is it safe? If I were Dominique...

Barack Hussein Obama? Is No One Questioning His Name?

Erin Nicole Cochran @CallieWVU2 (520) • United States 18 Jun 08

Maybe this sounds horrible but I hope to God that Barack doesn't win it, not because he's a "black man" if that's what you want to call him, but because of his name, what kind of name is that? Just like on this Comedy skit I saw...

jkg0679 Well, I for one will be voting for Obama. I think he is the better candidate. I don't think a person's name is means for dismissal. It needs to be based on who you feel would make a better president.

Do you tell little white lies to your children?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 18 Jun 08

I've always prided myself on being a really honest person, especially when it comes to being a mom. I try to set a good example for my daughter. But lately she has become fixated on chocolate chip cookies. And the other day...

jkg0679 I have told mine little white lies, and I have gotten caught. It is an awful thing to try teaching your child not to lie and then go ahead and do it yourself! I wish I had some advise for you, but really I am interested in hearing others responses.

momalisa65 @momalisa65 (1971) • United States 18 Jun 08

Yikes! I had downloaded images from Webshots and I had one of them set as my screen saver for several months. It was one my son liked. It was a dark picture from the 'Fast and the Furious' movie and the words "Fast and Furious"...

Good Idea for a Novel?

Erin Nicole Cochran @CallieWVU2 (520) • United States 18 Jun 08

Even though it's kind of too late for me to be thinking about whether or not it's actually a good enough idea to write as a novel, I'd like to know what everyone thinks of this idea. It's basically about a professional baseball...

To Spank or Not to Spank

jkg0679 @jkg0679 (31) • United States 18 Jun 08

I am interested in knowing your thoughts on spanking. Do you believe in it? Why or why not? What forms of discipline do you use instead of or in addition to spanking?

children

parenting

jkg0679 Spanking and beating are two very different things and should never be confused as one. I do not see spanking as abuse, but beating is.

What are you real feelings towards fertility treatments and multiple births. I know that this couple was lucky and that their children are healthy and happy and well adjusted, but what is your opinion. Do you believe that it is a...

jkg0679 I am all for fertility treatments. I think it's amazing how far science has come in allowing women who otherwise would not be able to bear children to do so. Pregnancy is such a wonderful experience and I believe every woman who wants to become pregnant should...

gemini_rose @gemini_rose (16264) 16 Jun 08

When my children were born, I started savings accounts for them and I would put any money that they were given for birthdays in there and I would put a bit of money away on top of that each month. Now they are older these accounts...

Do parents push their kids into sports or let them decide to join?

ladyljs @ladyljs (1303) • United States 17 Jun 08

So many join sports for the love of the game...but are there other reasons? Take parents for instance...sometimes, they push their little ones into sports for their own egos. In our little town, if you don't "belong" to the...

jkg0679 I think that children should be encouraged but not forced into joining sports. Sports can help a child's self-esteem as well as prevent obesity, but if a child is adamant against it, they should not be pushed. I was not into sports growing up, and I turned out...

jkg0679 I agree with you. I have spanked my daughter (and sure I will my son when he is older). Like you said, sometimes they need their brains reconnected.

Erin Nicole Cochran @CallieWVU2 (520) • United States 18 Jun 08
