    The "taboos of society"

    What I'm saying is that challenging attitudes is the only way to change them. It may be a a long slow process but I do not beleive anyone should have to rearrange their life around oppression or discrimination.

    The "taboos of society"

    I don't think I agree that trans people or anyone who is ' different' should just ' accept' that they'll get stares , nasty comments or rudeness. I think they should be aware of it but not accept it. Should women have ' just accepted' that they couldn't vote /work outside the home / own property...

    Read this sad lady's view of motherhood

    Ms Dahl I actually tend to agree with your view. I started to fel this way when ppl would ask me ' so is he a good baby' . . I actually thought about it for a minute and realized how ludicrous that question was! A maybe can't be bad!! A baby could be colicky or not muchof a sleeper , or a cryer...

    Sleeping issues

    Thanks everyone. He has a bit of a routine , but something more definite and predictable might be helpful. Starting today I am waking him up earlier. I think that was part of the problem , he was waking late , then napping late then of course going to bed late. It was a cycle , of course ...

    teen son shaved his eyebrows!

    I feel so sorry for young men. It's not acceptable to look ungroomed but it's even less acceptable to actually groom yourself.:doh:What's a thirteen year old to do. At least for girls it's acceptable to preen. Tell your son that you're perfectly fine with him grooming himself in whatever way he...

    My four-month-old's bed time

    I am a proponent of early bedtimes for CHILDREN , but not for 4 month olds. 4 month olds are babies and as far as I'm concerned babies should sleep whenever they want to and can. for everyone's sake! When my kids were 4 month olds they went to bed at around the same time as what you're saying...

    Ferbering?

    arrrgghh....sorry but when a father , who doesn't have baby and nursing related hormones surging through him starts telling a mom that she's 'responding to her baby too fast' at SIX WEEKS OLD it gets my blood boiling. You have instincts. Every fibre of your being aches to pick up a 6 week old...

    Lisa Rhemy on Racheal Ray?

    LEAH Remini! yeesh. sorry , it's my daughter's name so I guess it's easy for me to remember. Anyway , tantrums are another thing alltogether and if she was asking for help - alright. Was she asking for judgement from every T.V. viewer? Probably not. anyway. whatever I just don't see the...
