scoobyman Frankly I believe the Government sticks their nose in the affairs of families far to much. I believe that as long as the punishment does not leave marks on the child such as a spanking and the child is healthy and happy for the most part then the parents are...

Would you report your friend?

ronaldinu @ronaldinu (12422) • Malta 17 Feb 09

A thought have passed through my mind, that of reporting my friend for child neglect. I recently learned that my friend has left her 8 year old son with 103C fever and his three year old child at home all alone unsupervised. It...

Will your family eat generic brands?

mamacathie @mamacathie (3928) • United States 3 May 08

Well, my hubby didn't used to like the generic brands at all but the way prices have gotten, he has no choice now. I have had to slip the generic into the brand packaging LOL to try to fool. Most of the time, it didn't work! But...

scoobyman I have tried generic brands and most are just as good as the name brand. It's all about which is cheaper. I don't like to spend money on name brands if they have it in store brand.
