Step children

mamasan34 @mamasan34 (6518) • United States 19 Mar 07

I am marrying next month and I will become step-mom to two children on a part time basis. These children are very undisciplined and I don't agree with their mom's parenting techniques. They will be coming to visit soon and usually...

kingfisher111 I am a step mum and a lot of the time I find that I just have to bite my tongue. You have to set your own standards in your home though and gently insist that things are done your way. The worst thing is to get into confrontation so at times you will need to...

Do You Lie About Your Age?

all4ucnc @all4ucnc (861) • United States 18 Mar 07

Okay....I have a birthday coming up, and for years I have told people that I no longer celebrate it, I have been 24yr for a long time now, people have stopped asking how old I am going to be on my birthday, because they know I'll...

kingfisher111 I'm tempted to lie about my age. I had my daughters quite late in life and therefore I am a lot older than most of my daughter's friends mums. I like to think we could be about the same age so when the question of actual age comes up I just hedge it!

It's kind of like MyLot but I think the amount you earn is much higher. You get five cents if you start a new discussion and one cent per reply. Which, compared to here, is much higher. Try it out and see what you...

Any Jodi Picoult fans out there?

Pixie5477 @Pixie5477 (23) • United States 3 Mar 07

I haven't read fiction in years but a co-worker handed me a book by Jodi Picoult. It was called "My sisters keeper". It was one of the best books I've ever read. It truly got me thinking. It makes you think of real life situations...

kingfisher111 I also read 'My Sister's keeper' and was totally absorbed in it! You should try 'The Pact' that's definitely my favourite so far!

Ever wanted to take a cruise to Alaska?

mossjanicelynn @mossjanicelynn (1240) • United States 8 Mar 07

I think that would be the most beautiful thing in the world. I know it wouldn't be much to see, just a whole bunch of nothing, but the empty vastness of it all seems so overwhelming and great.

kingfisher111 I would love to go to Alaska. I saw a film about it years ago and it has captivated me ever since. As we are in the UK though it is a long way and unlikely we would do it while our children are young. Still it's nice to dream!

poppoppop111 @poppoppop111 (5731) • Canada 13 Mar 07

do you let your kids go out in public with them on. for example if you have to go to the grocery store. do you make them change out of their costume first?

kingfisher111 I don't think there's any need to make them change. You might get a few funny looks but what does it matter if they are happy!

kingfisher111 I went through a similar phase with both my daughters - and it doesn't really get better until they get past the age of two and you can explain and reason with them. Wait until your daughter is in bed to do the jobs you really need to do! Count to ten every...
