absadoolly Well, with 5 kids I could think of quite a few, but probably the most embarrassing involves my youngest. I actually won a humour writing competition with my story of this! My son is 10 now, this happened when he was 5. We were out shopping and while I was...

how old is too old for having a baby? how do you come up with your ideal "cut off" age? for me it used to be 35 because that's when the risk of birth defects rises dramatically. now i had this last baby when i was 39 and he's...

absadoolly I had my first at almost 23, my second at 26, my third at 28, my fourth at 38 and my fifth at almost 43. When I was given the preliminary test for the risk of Down's Syndrome (at the age of 42) I was told my risk was so low it wasn't worth bothering with the...

absadoolly I wouldn't marry someone I didn't love. I don't really believe in marriage anyway, it's a man-made institution. The important thing is whether you love each other enough to want to be together, a piece of paper is neither here nor there. Society may make...

Yesterday I went to bed at 6am. I tried hard to sleep but my mind was undergoing a power overload and I was turning and tossing till I finally manage to fall asleep at 10am. 40 min later at 10.40am, I was suddenly woken up...

absadoolly The majority of people can't, no. There are odd cases of people who can, but they have rare medical conditions. What you actually experienced was a "power nap" or "cat nap". As long as you don't go beyond a certain level of sleep, this serves to mimic at least...

absadoolly I have a lousy diet and I don't take them. I've often bought them, but never remembered to take them! I have just started taking various homeopathic supplements, though. Some of these (namely growth hormone & DHEA) also have a 'contradictory press', but I'm...

This question hits very close to home for me and I want to find out how some of you understand this to be. My great uncle recently shot himself after suffering for the past 3 years with cancer. He left a note to my great aunt...

absadoolly I am an atheist and I find this question very sad. Your uncle did something out of LOVE - love for his wife. How can that be wrong? If your god were to condemn him because of that - well, what sort of god is that, exactly? At the end of the day, your Uncle's...

absadoolly Here in the UK, the larger American portions at McDonald's don't exist. Our large is your small, or maybe medium, not sure. American obesity is well-documented over here, we have quite a few tv programmes about it. It's affecting children particularly badly,...

I've been with my husband now for 8 years. And we met in a Yahoo chat room almost 8 1/2 yrs. ago. I will hear people talking about internet relationships, and some of it is good and bad. I wasn't looking for a relationship in the...

absadoolly You can meet them anywhere. Who's to say your 'special someone' lives round the corner? What if they live at the other side of the world? Without the Internet, your chance of meeting them would be pretty slim. When you meet someone on the Internet, the...

What does it mean when someone says "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" to you? This was preceded by "See you sometime in the future". When I said I didn't understand the reference, I was told I would get the joke if I'd seen the film...

absadoolly This is what is bothering me. I just hope they don't intend doing something silly.

absadoolly A love bite is usually given on the neck, or other fleshy areas such as the breast. It is caused by sucking the skin (with or without using the teeth to nip it slightly) until the blood comes to the surface, which leaves a mark on the skin which lasts several...

absadoolly I wasn't, but my parents were. This year would have been their 55th wedding anniversary, but sadly my father died the day after their anniversary 16 years ago. It's always a sad time for my mother, because 3 days after his death is her birthday. She's 80 on...

absadoolly Never thought about the phone! I was thinking more in terms of how we put ourselves over when we express ourselves on paper as it were, but the phone is relevant, too. Good point.
