redbutterfly20 It's funny you say that. He won't even "allow" me to go have a cup of coffee with my sister in law (his brother's wife). It drives me crazy. I don't do anything to bring that on. I don't flirt or anything..

redbutterfly20 That helped very much, this was the exact type of answer I was hoping for... And yes he is very controlling. He won't even let me have a cup of coffee with my sister in law (his brother's wife). It's crazy. And if I do get to go out, he tells me by when I have...

Do you believe in spanking or not? Why? If you do, at what age do you think it is appropriate to start. I believe in spanking, but only when the punishment fits the crime. They would have had to do something pretty bad to deserve...

redbutterfly20 When my mom would take things away when I was younger that never worked for me either. But my mom would spank me with my dads belt. That put the fear of God into me, and stopped me from doing alot of things lol. But I wouldn't spank my kids with a belt though....

redbutterfly20 I agree 1 is very young. My husband thinks that I should swat my 11 month olds hand when he is trying to get something he shouldn't. But I don't agree with that. He's little and curious, I really don't think that would stop him from wanting to explore. With my...

redbutterfly20 I think it's ironic that you are comparing them to the Germans actually. The Germans were critized for the SAME exact thing. Here is a quote by Benjamin Franklin about Germans "Few of their children in the country learn English...The signs in our streets have...

I wonder what the right would be saying if it had been revealed that Michelle Obama had charged over 3/4 of a MILLION dollars on credit cards in ONE MONTH; I have a feeling that would serve as proof positive the Obamas are...

redbutterfly20 He was just trying to explain their resentment over jobloss. Which is really true, in those areas they aren't as accepting of other types of people. Here in California we embrace everyone.

redbutterfly20 I read it in a blog, and now that I searched it, it wasn't him but his father. I really don't believe he is an elitist for those remarks. I mean, I don't want to sound hard but that is what many people believe that don't live in the South.

redbutterfly20 I visited Guadalajara, surrounding "ranchos", and Puerto Vallarta. My husband's aunt lived in one of the ranch towns. It was really sad the poverty that was there. I never realized people in Mexico didn't have washers and dryers. That was interesting having to...

redbutterfly20 I think it's because there are sooo many people here and not enough houses, mild weather, Hollywood, and the many different types of regions (Deserts, Mountains, Coastline, Woodlands). My husband is orignially from East Los Angeles (Not so nice part of L.A),...

address their elders by titles, such as 'aunt' or 'uncle?' I teach my son to say it, but he doesn't always, and some people seem bothered by that. He is still very young- 21 months, and I don't really think it is a big deal....

redbutterfly20 Who said anything about punishment? I don't punish my son for not saying aunt or uncle I just simply correct him, because I personally think it's rude. It just seems to me in california they don't try as hard to be respecful, maybe it's the laid back thing I...

redbutterfly20 As for the utilities I am trying to cut back there as well. I put a brick in the back of the toilet to use less water to flush (you could also use a water bottle). I turn on the Tv less, and I read more. I unplug appliances that are not being used. I water the...
