At this moment, what would you say is your own, personal theme song? For me it has to be "Stop and Stare" from One Republic.

silentlyscreaming I would have these intense cravings for Chili Cheese Burritos from Taco Bell at 2 in the morning, 3 Muskateers and Salt and Vinegar Potato Chips. Funny thing is I don't even like the Chili Cheese Burritos, go figure!

Gas Prices....ZOINKS!

silentlyscreaming @silentlyscreaming (48) • United States 13 Jun 08

I know I'm not alone in thinking that this is getting ridiculous as far as the price of gas is going. How much are you paying for gas? What is the mileage of your commute to work? What area of the country do you live? Is it rural,...

silentlyscreaming We are basically in the same boat as you. Here in my area of Indiana, we are paying 4.13 a gallon. We have no public transportation and the commute to work is approx. 70 miles roundtrip for my husband and 30 miles for myself. The nearest store is about 8 miles...

Why do people have kids when they can't really afford to have them?

NuclearRabbit @NuclearRabbit (650) • United States 13 Jun 08

Is it too much to ask? I really don't get the logic behind this. Why put yourself and your kids through proverty? It seems that some people assume that "God will provide." Even if I wasn't an agnostic I would still be offended by...

Toddler Bed

angelface23 @angelface23 (2494) • United States 9 Jun 08

My daughter turned two yesterday. I was just curious as to what age is appropriate for a toddler bed? I would really like to get her one but I don't want it to be too early.

silentlyscreaming At two, she is certainly old enough for a toddler bed. We, like another poster, never actually used a toddler bed. Our son went into a regular bed at about 15 months. He was quite the monkey and was climbing out of his crib nearly every night. Our daughter...

silentlyscreaming Actually, I think autism can be devastating. From the sound of things, it seems like you have a son who is higher functioning, like my own child. I can certainly understand though, how a family with a severly autistic child would be devastated by it. As for...
