moira725 i agree. it is up to the child's parents if you should discipline your godchild or not. i've told this to my husband. we've been married for 21 years now and i know how close he is to his brother so, i advised him to just do as his brother wishes. my husband...

moira725 hi jesus777! well, actually, other relatives of the boy, share your views. in fact, even his maternal grandma has said the same thing. she even told my husband to go ahead and discipline the boy. but i told my husband not to do any disciplining himself...

moira725 i was not referring to discipline as punishment, rather that the boy's parents would sit him down and talk to him seriously about the consequences of his actions. i always talk to my kids about this matter. when they were younger and if they did something bad,...

moira725 you're right. goodbye is so final. well, i guess now that my bestfriend will be staying away much longer than usual, i feel as if we're never going to see each other again. but then again, the internet is here. i guess that's OK.

moira725 yeah. i agree with you. in my family, women are the nurturers and men are mostly the providers. since both my brothers are busy with work and i'm a stay-at-home mom, i do the visiting. whenever my kids have a school break, i have to go visit them. i guess,...

moira725 yup! as clumsy as i am, my "accidents" are always sources of laughter even for my children. these really take out the monotony in my mostly routine life. i don't really mind because making them laugh is a lot better than making them angry or sad.:)
