I took my boys (4 and 7) to see Kung Fu Panda yesterday. There were 23 minutes of previews. My 4 year old was ready to go home before the movie even started. Don't they know that kids don't have that kind of attention span. Heck,...

cukal6 I don't mind previews, but 25 minutes is a lot even for me.

My husband and I are planning a 5 night getaway in the middle of July. We just can't decide where to go. Any suggestions? We'd like to keep it under $2000 flying from St. Louis. I've found that it's not very easy to do with...

where to go

cukal6 It sounds really nice, but we've only got 5 nights. That's pretty far to go. I will keep it in my mind when we have more time.

I am still using baby shampoo on my 2 boys aged 16 months & almost 3. I guess they are old enough to change to normal shampoo but I prefer to be safe. What do you use on your children and what age did you start using normal...

cukal6 My kids are 6 and 4 and we also use the suave kids shampoo. When my youngest was 2 we started using the kandoo shampoo and really liked it. Switched to suave recently because it was cheaper.

I noticed my tank was running a little low and I have a lot of running to do this week so I just went and filled up. It cost me $64 to fill my tank up and it wasn't even empty. I don't like to let it get too low because I live in...

cukal6 I like to wait and see if the price is going down. It usually backfires though and I end up paying more.

Wholly crap, I think I just almost had a heart attack...seriously. I took my kids for a little adventure. We walked/rode bikes and scooters down to the school, then went to the store for ice cream. On the way back home one of my...

cukal6 My mom says it's payback for the way me and my 2 brothers acted when we were younger. She swears she had a heart attack at least once a month while we were growing up.

cukal6 I think the problem is that I was spoiled on the Explorer. There were only about 500 people on board so the staff was there every time we turned around. It's completely different with 2000-3000 other people with you. I just didn't like the fact that you had to...

My in-laws were here this weekend and we decided to take them to the racetrack. Cars, not horses. Any way, it was my husband and I, my in-laws, my 2 sons, and my niece. My MIL decided to take my son and niece (who are both 6) down...

cukal6 We did invite her to come and stay with the kids for a few days here over the summer but that wasn't good enough. She just can't believe that we don't trust her any more. I think we just need to let it blow over.

cukal6 No, this is not the first itme something like this has happened. Last summer she took both of my kids to chicago for 4 days (she lives near there) and asked if she could take them to the local amusement park. I said no because they were only 5 and 2 at the...

cukal6 He did try to talk to her, and she just got up and left the room crying. Then she refused to speak to him. I told him to just let her cool off for a while and if he feels more comfortable, tell her I'm the one who said she can't take my son. I would much...

cukal6 She would definitely be offended if I recommended a class. the bad thing is, she watches my niece all the time. Babysat for her every day for the first 2 years of her life and now takes her for overnight trips. That terrifies me but my sister-in-law doesn't...

cukal6 I think you're right. She's almost 60 and things were different when my husband and I were little. I just don't know how she's going to gain my trust again. We've always let the kids go and spend long weekends with her, but I just can't now. She wants to know...

cukal6 That was my argument. There were 4 adults there, and only 3 children. She could have easily come and gotten one of us. She said they had each other and that was enough. Who thinks like that!?
