pacwmn The most unordinary food I've eaten was aligator tail. It tasted like...chicken. I know, cliche', but it really did, only with a bit of a fishy taste. Interesting, but good. Brain!?! I don't think I could get past the mental part of it to eat it (gross!) But...

pacwmn Does the little girl have any bruises or markings that would suggest beating? If so, contact the authorities immeadiatly. Also, tell your friend to trust his instinct, it is better to be safe than sorry. Just a couple of weeks ago, a four-year-old girl in my...

pacwmn We personally waited 4 years to have our first baby, but what is really important is not the amount of time you wait, but when you both are ready. It takes a lot to be a parent and it takes a strong marriage as well. Don't pressure a spouse into being ready...

pacwmn I am totally in the same boat, but I have already started my family. We are moving out of state soon and would love a house, but the reality is that we cannot afford one. I have told my sister that the only way for she and I to afford a house is to buy one and...

pacwmn I have been in this position a few times. Once with a serious boyfriend of over two years. I have always tried to help the friend, but if it got out of hand, I have had to distance myself from him or her so that I am not pulled down with them.

elizajane202 @elizajane202 (159) • United States 3 Apr 07

It's spring break and time to go on a vacation, the only problem is your kids are going to need to use the restroom. Do you stop at a gas station/restaurant? How do you avoid them getting all messy? Do you have any tips for...

pacwmn Restaurants seem to have cleaner facilities than gas stations most of the time. I really do not like to use public bathrooms and avoid it when I can. But obviously, that is not always possible when traveling. I will only go in one that looks clean and I never...

Parent-teacher conferences: to do them or not?

sapphiresage @sapphiresage (431) • United States 3 Apr 07

It's report card day here, and of course one daughter's first-grade teacher sends out a generic note telling all parents to "please call for a conference with a time and date you would like to come in". Now, I love my kids. I...

pacwmn There is more to how a child is doing in school than merely the grad they recieve on the report card. A teacher needs to talk with the parents and let them know how they are doing in other areas, ie, socialization, behavior, etc. It is also a chance to ask the...

pacwmn I have made sure that my son has gotten all of his vaccinations. Yes, he usually cries, and once they made him feel unwell, but it is a better choice than letting him get any of the diseases that the vaccines are for.

mtoxales @mtoxales (374) • Canada 3 Apr 07

How much time do you let your kids watch tv? For my case, I just let them watch as long as they are attentive because it's the only time I can do my chores but once they lose their interest, I close the tv and read a book to them...

pacwmn My son does not watch any TV. But then he is only 11 months old. I will keep it that way for as long as possible so he will find other interests and learn to use his imagination. TV is not all bad and I'm sure he will watch some, but it is not a way of life...
