Children attending Your Birth

Jshean20 @Jshean20 (14348) • Canada 20 Dec 06

I've been watching the "life channel" on TV lately and I've noticed that a lot of women (especially those having a home birth) have their children attend their whole birth. Have you or someone you know ever done this? Would you?...

Black_Velvet I did. I was 10 when my sister was being born. Everyone was scared for me, but I almost fell asleep. It all depends on the child I suppose.

What is the best age and way to introduce reading in kids?

mansha @mansha (6298) • India 21 Dec 06

My son is seven year old and he loves to listen to stories but is not an avid reader. This is a continuous discussion in my home how to make him indulge in reading regularly any comics or any books. I feel we should read a story...

Black_Velvet Well, my little sister is three. And even before she came out of the womb I've been reading to her. I think kids should be taught from when they're little, and be asked what they'd like to read and not to be forced. And they should see others around the house...

joseph_v @joseph_v (212) • India 20 Dec 06

Black_Velvet Hasn't worked for me. You have to be VERY committed and loyal and responsible. And you have to be able to see a future with that person too. It's not for everyone.
