Most women don't choose to be single parents, it just happens. Marriages and relationships end, and then you're stuck raising the kids by yourself. And, there's no easy way to prepare for it. Guys don't think about the...

tippy1124 I do feel that I could have provided better for my son financially had his father and I stayed together, but that's about it. I wonder sometimes how things would differ if we hadn't split, but I don't think he's being deprived of anything. He visits his father...

I am concerned that I'm not doing enough to help my daughter prepare for kindergarten. It's been easier getting her ready for preschool since we got her a computer. The computer games have made all the difference in the world...

tippy1124 Well, I know I felt the same way when I was trying to prepare my son for kindergarten. I was always doing stuff with him to try to help, but then I realized one day that he wasn't picking anything up. He'd go through the alphabet perfectly one day and not...

Is there any right way to deal with an alcoholic husband? I have been married for almost 33 years to one, and no matter what I do, it's the wrong thing. I honestly don't feel like I love this man anymore, and I feel I would be...

tippy1124 When you find out, let me know please. I have the same problem except for the fact that I do love him very much. About 90% of the time, he's the most sensitive, romantic, loving man I've ever met. Then you have the binges. When he gets depressed, worried about...

tippy1124 The responses suggesting that you talk to your doctor are correct. I just wanted to let you know that I was also diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Disease a few years ago. I have one child, but I can't have anymore. Don't think that your depression is coming...

OMG--my 8-year-old went crazy on me tonight. I swear I have never met this kid in my life! He is normally so sweet and easy going. He's not perfect, by any means, but has never spoken to me the way he did tonight. I took away...

tippy1124 If he's never been disrespectful to you before, it kind of sounds to me like he may just be testing his "boundaries" with you. He saw the child in his class do it and he may have been curious as tho see what the reaction would be if he did it also.

tippy1124 I'm really sorry to hear that you're having to go through all that. From your first discussion, I didn't realize that she was being so intolerable. I do think that he needs to have a serious talk with her. For God's sake, she's 16? She's acting like I did...

Sometimes i see kids of my friends are very indisciplined and stubborn. They do not listen to anyone if the parents are not around. Is it okay to spank kids at that time to control them? If you are a parent then would you allow...

tippy1124 I agree with mrslitz. Besides, if you have the time to sit there and explain to the child why they're being spanked, then you have the time to sit there and explain to them what they've done wrong and why it was wrong. I never want my son to feel the way...

Does it really affect your kids when a couple separates? Or it really depends how you explain t to your children why you are separating?

tippy1124 It really depends on how old the child(ren) is. My son's father and I separated when he was 2 years old, so I never saw any kind of behavioral or emotional change. Not to say that it doesn't affect him. He is 6 now and his father lives in Maryland and I in...

tippy1124 As a step-mom myself, I think I know how you're feeling. You said that she "took advantage" of him last time? How so? I'm assuming she was buying things that her mother dissaproved of. If that's the case, I would tell him to sit her down and talk to her...

tippy1124 Really I think it has more to do with what kind of daycare you're taking them to. My best friend does this on her days off and it's not because she wants the free time. The daycare they attend is a sort of pre-school type daycare. Since they started going...

tippy1124 I also tried bribing my son with candy, to no avail. We have a store in my town that sells nothing but things to aide in the raising of children and I had been there many times, so the next time I went in I asked the cashier if they had anything to aide in...
