My husband and I were having lunch in an outdoor restaurant in Maine and when finished we had a brief dissagreement over the tip. He said he would pay inside. I went to the lobby to check out the brochures while he paid. He joined...

cyntrow Elusivebutterfly, You've already explained that your husband didn't understand the concept of tipping in the US and you should not have to continue to explain this. The fact is that the server should not have confronted you on this matter. I waited tables...

This is not meant to be discriminatory or negative in any way. My question is. What does the red dot on some of your foreheads mean? I want to know what it stands for, why you wear them and if it is a religious doing? I've always...

supersach The red dot on the forehead of Indian girls/women signifies that she is NOT a widow, she may be married or unmarried. It is considered inauspicious for a married woman to not to have a red dot on her forehead. You might have also seen a long and thick...

My 2 1/2 year old is starting to shorten his nap times on his own. I'm not sure how much longer he'll nap during the afternoon. I'm curious as to when other children finally stopped an afternoon nap.

coolcatzz If I remember correctly my son was probably 3ish and my daughter was a bit earlier. It kind of depends on the kid. My son slept better then she did. Not that she didn't sleep well but she didn't require as much. So I think it depends on the child but they will...

kitchenwitchoftupper Dara, That, to me, depends mostly on you. If he is getting cranky in the late afternoon or early evening before bed time, that is a signal that he still needs a nap. Even if he does not want one, I (and this is just my personal opinion) would either take him...

apky12 My 2 1/2 year old stopped napping completely at 2 years old. You are lucky he has napped that long. I wish my 2 year old would nap but he won't and he throws a fit so it's just easier to put him down earlier to bed.

peddhie My son is 3 year old and he is going to 3 year old kinder now and he stops napping. I think when the kids start more activities they seem a bit gone off from napping. So, when you said your son 2 1/2 year old and stop napping, I guess that's about the age when...
