How I Met Your Mother...the kiss

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 24 Apr 08

So, now that Bones has moved to Mondays I don't get to watch How I Met Your Mother anymore. Well we kind of switched to it during the commercials of Bones. We caught the end of the last episode and saw the kiss and I looked at my...

how to get a 2yo over her terrifying fear of the potty

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 14 Apr 08

This is my 4th child. I am no by no means new to potty training. For almost 4 years straight I was potty training one child or another (including 2 very stubborn little girls). But this is new to me. My youngest daughter just...

When did you allow/encourage your kids to get their own meals?

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 11 Feb 08

I catch a lot of flack from other moms because my older kids (7 and 6) get their own breakfast and lunch. They say I shouldn't force them to grow up so fast and let them be kids or that it should be my job because I'm the mom....

bikini cut panties for 4 year olds?

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 11 Feb 08

When my kids were toddlers I balked at the underwear department. Who in their right mind would want low rise or bikini cut undies for their preschooler? It seemed so cheap and seedy to think about. How things change. I...

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 4 Feb 08

when you start cursing in Mandarin, lol. I found a site that translated all the Chinese they use in the show/movie so I could add them into a fanfic I was writing. Some of the phrases were hilarious (they mostly aren't curses,...

Give up free will?

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 4 Feb 08

Would you give up your free will for a world of complete happiness? Meaning there would be no more war, famine, hurt etc in the world. Everyone would be happy and at peace at all time (no murder, stealing, sadness). Would you...

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 25 Nov 07

I am curious about first impressions or thoughts. If you hear a married couple is sleeping in separate rooms what would you automatically assume is the problem, if there is a problem at all? I'll tell you I sleep in our...

Atheist children's book...

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 16 Nov 07

No, not the Golden Compass, lol. Actually because of all the controversy around Philip Pullman's books I have decided I want to write children's literature with an atheist slant. I've already come up with a simple picture book...

Do you believe in "blind faith"?

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 13 Nov 07

I, personally, do not. I do believe in faith. I don't believe in god but I do have faith in a great many other things, including science and nature and my family. Blind faith, to me, is just ignorance. I have little respect for...

Raising children without god?

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 11 Nov 07

What do you think of parents that choose to raise their children without ever mentioning god? Do you think they are doing a disservice to their children, leading them astray or just raising them the best way they can?

This is my situation. My husband moved a few weeks ago because of his job. We won't be able to follow him until school gets out (last day is June 8). Well, we have to wait until he can get time off of work to come get us so it...

Anyone else had to deal with suddenly being a single mother? My husband decided he didn't like his job here and transferred to another airport (he works for the airlines). He left Monday for the new place (he's staying with my...

patronizing talk

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 17 May 07

Do you find it patronizing or offensive with strangers or people you barely know use terms of endearment when talking to you? I'm not talking about little old ladies. My landlord is the most obnoxious person I know and when he...

House and Cuddy

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 12 Apr 07

I remember when I first started watching (at the beginning of season 2) I didn't like Cuddy. She was so uptight and she just annoyed me. But after watching more I love her. She is one of my favorite characters and I like the fact...

Our landlord informed us today that we can't park in front of our apartment door anymore because that spot should be for the lady and man that live next door. Our doors are right next to each other and we were told that was our...

Is it asking too much?

4monsters4me @4monsters4me (2569) • United States 11 Apr 07

Today my 6 year old got home from school and I told her that she had to do all her homework and put her and her 4 year old sister's clean clothes away before dinner at 6pm. This seems to be too much for her to handle though. Am...
