ellysmile_b This is really scary. That's why we should really ensure that the one we leave our baby with can really be trusted. We all know that caring for babies, specially very young ones require a great deal of patience. I know that this is quite out of the topic...

ellysmile_b Yes I love mangoes, the green ones and the ripe ones. The green ones can be very very sour, but can still be mouthwatering. I'm kinda lucky because I can get to enjoy it all year round here in our country. I'm also proud to say that the variety we have is...

ellysmile_b Oh... At least now I know little boys really do love to play with kitchen sets. I was so worried with my son (2 1/2 yrs), coz he chooses to play with kitchen stuff everytime I bring him to a mall daycare. Sometimes I watch him play with his tool set in his...

ellysmile_b You have responded maturely and correctly. Yeah, you could've been aggressive but it wouldn't be right to do that. At least you acted properly and you have delivered your message well. I believe that being cool at all times is a virtue and not all people...

ellysmile_b Are you close to him or your relationship is only in "hi - hello" level? Don't take it too seriously, maybe he just said that because he doesn't really know you well enough. Try to distance yourself from him for a while. If he makes an effort to say hi to you,...

New baby....New things?

daycarepal @daycarepal (1998) • United States 24 Jun 07

When you had your first child, did you have to go out and buy the crib, changing table and everything else that you needed? Or did someone help you purchase some of those big ticket items? When I had my 1st child 20 years ago,...

ellysmile_b My hubby and I are very picky people. We made it a point to really buy and choose the baby stuff ourselves. Well the excitement has something to do with our being first time parents of course, that's why the shopping part was really fun for us. But then along...

I dislike intensely my mother

BELMCstar @BELMCstar (1341) • Australia 12 Jun 07

I know hate is a strong word, so I will say that I dislike her intensely. It stems back to when I was about 15, and I told her some information about myself. She did not listen to me regarding it, or believe me, and ever...

ellysmile_b My mother and I don't have a close relationship too. But I don't know if I can already call it a 'dislike' or something. Being the eldest and being a girl, she made me feel that I'm sort of a competition for my father's attention. That's why I grew up feeling...

ellysmile_b That person must have had a traumatic childhood experience. She obviously has emotional wounds from her past. People like this cannot love normally. They have to deal with their personal issues first in order to be able to give love.
