Carolysom I've come to the conclusion that it's the closest that they can easily get to the fetal position. I actually have a picture of me for about the age of 5 sleeping like that too. I think it's just kids being kids. Google it, maybe you'll see that it's normal,...

Do you get to see both of your parents? Are they still married? My parents have been divorced for over 20 years now. I see my mom a lot but I don't get to see my dad much. I call my dad like once a month. Don't get me wrong I love...

Carolysom I should start by saying that when I was a teenager my parents split up and I lived with my dad. I'm 100x closed to my dad then my mom. My dad works about a 5 min drive from my house and stops in almost every day. My mom on the other hand works 5 blocks from...

for me a single parent is ok! because that important thing is that you have been responsible of all the time to your son or daughter. I'm just worrying the side of my daughter because she might feel a little empty of...

Carolysom I am not a single parent, but I'm a child of a single parent. I have to say it was SO much better for me, as a child, after my parents split up. I was 13 when they split and my mom moved to the next town over. I lived with my dad until I went away to...

Carolysom A lot of times people get rid of them because they get bored of them. If you purchase from a reputable source you will hardly ever have problems....I bought my Wii 2 years for 179.99 plus GST. The Wii Fit is expensive though, but I also feel that was money...

Carolysom The price actually just went down by like 50$, when I see advertisements at the staff room in my work place it says wii console now just 119.95, instead of 179.95. I thought it was reasonably priced to begin with though, compared to what else is out...

Carolysom What I have found that works is planning one. I rented the hall here in town, and invited my friends that had other direct sales businesses. The hall rental was only $100 and I divided that up by the number of vendors I had. We had a really good turn out and...

Carolysom At this point in my life, gifts aren't important. My husband and I have got too much stuff as it is. We have a toddler as well and he has too much stuff! Besides, if there is anything that we're wanting we usually just go and buy. For instance, I had been...

Carolysom http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2007/04/21/native-blockade.html this one was about a land dispute. There was a rock quarry that they claimed to be on ancestral Mohawk, which is one group of natives land. But, they think the land belongs to nobody, so how could...
