    What was your first pet?

    Buttercup, a male cat who was colored like a buttercup. He became a true tomcat and tried to kill me when I was about three years old. This is why you should either neuter your male cats or keep them indoors!

    What sports you attended during your High School Years?

    I did cheerleading and ballet, and my daughters who are old enough have followed in my footsteps. (My husband was a band geek and hopes that our young son, or any of our other daughters, will one day follow in his footsteps!) My husband and I also have always been avid horseback riders and...

    My baby doesn't like being held

    My sixth child was like that as a baby. It's hard, yes. She's now two and a half and runs to me because she trusts me, so that's good.

    Explaining death to son

    I understood death before the age of five, and our method is to speak to our kids directly but kindly. Simply say that your dog was old and his body stopped working, but his soul (if you believe animals have souls) is alive and in Heaven. Dogs are the hardest pets to lose, in my experience...

    Autism Speaks--spin off

    As Stephie stated, Autism Speaks is a scam. The only "cure" for autism is abortion! Also, the money made by Autism Speaks goes to support the founders' luxurious life styles and promote fear propaganda, not to help people.

    stealing defiant lying son age 11

    I have mentored a young woman who struggles with shoplifting. Kleptomania is a disorder and, while I don't understand it, it needs to be approached from a psychological standpoint. Get him counseling and, yes, a psychiatrist. He knows stealing is wrong and he should be punished, but remember...

    In your 40s, with young children!

    My second oldest is 8, and the seventh and eighth aren't yet born! Yes, I do think I'm very young for my age! :) blackribbon, my condolences. I married later than most, and my husband and I both wanted a large family. I am so sorry for your loss.

    How to respond to people

    I simply tell people that I love kids, and that I was born to be a mother of as many as is possible and practical. It's my calling.

    vaccines

    I believe vaccinations should be spread out to prevent illness, but they are good. That autistic symptoms can start showing around the time that vaccines are given is a coincidence. Before vaccinations, there were autistic children who seemed to "regress" around the age that vaccinations are...

    Very thorough Aspie quiz.

    Your Aspie score: 112 of 200 Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 116 of 200 You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits I am diagnosed autistic, but I am a very feminine, maternal, and social person which these types of quizzes do not take into account for.
