Why Did You Decide To Marry Your Spouse?

lynnemg @lynnemg (4529) • United States 26 Feb 09

This may sound bad, but to me it is romantic. While I was married to my first husband, and he was in jail (one of the many times), I had a dream that I would marry a man who was the son of my babysitter. In my dream, I saw his...

Didi1201 He was my high school sweet heart. We met when I was 15 almost 16 and have been together ever since. We've been married 9 and a half years. I guess we just knew it was right from the start.

Didi1201 First of all its not just younger parents. I'm in my 20s and all the "clubbing parents" I know are in their 30s or up. Second I don't think there is anything wrong with a couple who choose to swap watching the kid and going out. Sometimes as a parent its nice...

Problems convincing your husband you want to stay at home?

butterfly6305 @butterfly6305 (47) • United States 25 Feb 09

My husband is a wonderful man, but I have always wanted to stay at home when I have children. We found out I'm pregnant, and now he wants me to work. The thing is, I can't get him to understand that it's less expensive for me to...

Didi1201 If you don't know the average cost then how can you be sure its cheaper where you are? Maybe if you do a little research and write it all down and show him the numbers that would help if it truly is cheaper. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Sit down and...

Didi1201 A lot of parents these days had a child as a status symbol or a play thing. A lot of parents don't really want to "parent" their child. It is a problem and I think almost ever family has at least one in them like this. Sometimes when it happens I speak my...

Kids And Cooking!

acmj1985 @acmj1985 (25) • United States 24 Feb 09

First of all, I think that parents are mostly worried about how big of a mess their kids will make instead of how much fun something will be! My son is 6 and loves to cook with me. My 3 year old is also taking a liking to helping...

Didi1201 My 7 yr old daughter gets to pick one item a week from a cook book and help me make it. It can be a side dish, main course, or sweet thing. She loves it and I think we both learn a lot when we cook together.

Didi1201 When my daughter was being bullied at school I went to her teacher. The teacher refused to do anything. I went to the other parent who made it out like my daughter was lying. Finally the vice principal SAW it happen and stepped in. That only helped for about a...

What would you do?

Shar19 @Shar19 (8231) • United States 23 Feb 09

Let's say you are in a store minding your own business. As you are looking at some clothing to purchase you see a woman and her child near you. The child has a backpack on. Her mother makes her open the backpack up and the mother...

Didi1201 The few times I've seen people stuffing items to steal I've just simply said "I see you" They usually put it back. If they don't I find a store employee and tell them. Prices go up as people steal. The stores have to recover that loss somehow and unfortunately...

What eases Your Mind?

samafayla33 @samafayla33 (1856) • United States 21 Feb 09

I was wondering, what eases your mind? Sometimes my mind gets so cloudy I don't know how to empty it, It seems so difficult just to keep going when you seem to be blocked. Have a great day! :)

Didi1201 I find the best way to organize my mind is to organize something else with my hands. If I spend a couple hours doing very intense tedious work with my hands (such as scrubbing the tile grout with bleach and a toothbrush) I find my mind seems to organize itself...

Didi1201 There's plenty of ways to still spend time together. Some of my fondest memories are of being completely exhausted after being up all night with our baby and crawling into bed to snuggle up to him just before he had to get up for work. Or how we'd sneak a bath...

Please don't touch my child

Shar19 @Shar19 (8231) • United States 23 Feb 09

I was at my grandmother's nursing home the other day and was standing there talking to a few people in the hallway. One of the residents there saw me and my son standing there. As she walked by she patted my sons hair. Now I know...

Didi1201 Because in the day and time they were growing up, that was perfectly acceptable. Its only been in recent times that we've begun to think of it as intrusive. If my child doesn't mind the attention/affection I don't think I'd mind either.

Didi1201 No, I wouldn't pay a man's bills. I'd never consider dating a man who wasn't able to financially take care of himself. Do I think men should HAVE to pay the bills of those they date? No. I do not think its appropriate for a woman to ask a man to pay her bills...
