    Staying up until boyfriend leaves

    I would sit up, not because you don't trust her but because it's a healthy reminder of her responsibility. I'm sorry it's messing with your sleep schedule, but I do think it's the right thing. You might request for the summer that the bf only stay that late a certain number of days per week; I...

    Breastfeeding

    :D I had several threads open in tabs in my browser. I was reading the "When did you start to show?" thread and I was flipping around and tried to go back to that thread where I read that someone apparently started showing at "15 months." Took me a second to realize I'd landed on this...

    Digital Scrapbooking

    Last year my husband bought me this program for doing digital scrapbook layouts. I love this thing! I wrote myself a little web gallery and started transforming my digital photos into a scrapbook. I've done all the way from Nov. 2001 to Aug. 2005 so far. The only problem is that I'm getting...

    When your spouse naps

    My husband promised not to wake me unless he has a good reason. And he has a "good reason" every single time. And he knows I find that annoying, too, but it's useless.

    When your spouse naps

    :D LOL. I am actually the napping spouse that I am referring to. When dh naps, it's usually unintentional; he lays down to watch TV or snuggle with a small child and falls asleep. I never wake him unless he's asked me to, has promised to be awake at a certain time, or needs to be...

    Which Do You Think Is More Rude?

    I don't think it's an issue of being upset that mom and dad went somewhere alone, but of being excluded from something that might be special to them, too. For example, the party I went to last night. I go to parties without my kids all the time. Not everything is a for-kids event. But last...

    When your spouse naps

    So does everybody agree that it's ok to wake your spouse when you think they've had enough sleep? What if your spouse expressed that they don't like this, and wanted to be allowed to sleep until they were ready to get up? Would you be upset by that?

    Which Do You Think Is More Rude?

    Well, I pretty much agree with your feelings, I just think that there is more responsibility on a guest to either respect the wishes of the host or not attend.

    Opinions Please on Action Taken...

    I don't know if this is news over there, but we in the US recently went through the re-trial of a woman from my city who had a history of mental illness, had attempted suicide, and finally killed all 5 of her children. While she is ultimately to blame, no one stopped her. She was left alone...

    When your spouse naps

    When your spouse naps during the day, how long will you wait before waking them up, whether to make sure they can sleep that night or because you are tired of watching the kids, or whatever reason (other than they asked you to wake them)? Do you think waking them for above reasons is...

    Which Do You Think Is More Rude?

    I guess I find it surprising that a parent would allow their child to behave so badly Then again, last night I was shown that not all children are expected to behave properly. We attended a mostly-adults party with only our kids and two others in attendance. (They were invited.) My kids...

    Can Christians be swingers?

    You said it better than I did.

    Which Do You Think Is More Rude?

    You're kidding! Why would children not be allowed in a church? I mean, I know someone who actually got married in a BAR and there were kids there.

    When did you start to show?

    Are people doing that annoying, "Haven't you had those babies yet?" thing? I hate that when I'm getting close, and I'm getting impatient and EVERYONE wants to remind me about it for like two MONTHS before my due date.

    Continuing Education while Pregnant...

    You know, being pregnant just doesn't affect my life so much. It certainly wouldn't require me to quit school or work. With my first, I quit my job AFTER my son was born because I wanted to be home with him. I know some women have really hard pregnancies. Maybe your co-worker knew someone...
