How would you feel about someone else disciplining your child without your approval? Have you ever been in a position where someone else took over the reigns for you an you weren't happy about it. I might not be able to handle...

bamakelly I can understand your opinion. Having a neighbor that does this does not sound good at all. When someone does not have children it is especially a circumstance where they should watch what they say. In some cases as you say you would understand if someone...

bamakelly You have really hit the nail on the head here with this one. It is so true about political correctness these days. They are having beauty pageants to this day basing most of the facts on the physical beauty. Now there is a spin put on things with the...

I was wondering what your take is on how to subdue children that are misbehaving in public. Say in a store, outside or otherwise. Have you ever had an incident where you needed to take your child out of the store for a while...

bamakelly You are very right. It takes a lot of patience disciplining a child. And when there is an issue out in public it can get difficult and frustrating. It can be hard to deal with a child that gets out of hand and sometimes it is hard to know what to do to...

bamakelly I can see where you are in a hard position especially when it comes to a two year old. They are going through a stage at that point. However even a five year old like mine has his moments. Children will be children and sometimes we just can't tell what it is...

bamakelly I know that I was not with a cell phone when I was a child mainly because they didn't really use them much back twenty five years ago. If there were cell phones they were just for the adults and it would be unheard of for kids or teenagers to have them at...

bamakelly I agree. It does depend on the parents. That could be part of the problem these days. Cell phones are given to children by parents and then it gets out of control. The phones are being carried onto the premises of schools and other establishments where they...

bamakelly I totally agree with this way of thinking. They should be restricted along with some of the other things that are being brought in to schools. There is not need, you are right. And above all you make another fine point. Cell phones can have a way of...

In many poor countries parents are allowed their teens to employ in the factories,industries ,coffee shops, hotels etc. It will surely affect the childrens studies and also their health. It should be strictly prohibited. Do you...

bamakelly I agree with your way of thinking here. Teenagers should be able to start working from the mid teens and so on. There should be strict labor restrictions because of some minors under the legal age. I do also agree that the parents should take the measures...

bamakelly That would be pretty convenient to have a hand book. But it just does not work that way. All we can do is just try our best and be good role models for our children. We are going to make mistakes because we are only human. Our children will love us no...

bamakelly I didn't realize that orange cheese had a high fat content if that is what you are saying. But I do know that I like the taste of cheese in my omelets. It kind of adds an extra flair to them. Mozzarella also sounds good. Got to say that the idea of olives...
