Why do so many people assume that mothers are the better parents? I have heard women say they don't want to leave the baby with their husband because he won't take care of the baby the same way she would. Well, so what? Is your...

silkkat Sometimes husbands are the better parents. My dad is a prime example of that. I know that if I was raised by my mother I would be a tottally different person and not in a good way. Sure he had some problems but everyone does. A single father of two, he did a...

Our monthly food budget is $250. There is 4 of us, 2 adults and 2 kids ages 6 and almost 3. We eat well, never go hungary and always have a full pantry. I keep feeling like I could spend a lot less and still be happy but I have...

silkkat Oh my I wish I could get our food budget that low. Every two weeks I spend between 200 and 300 but then I'm also in the store almost every other day picking up stuff I forgot. I think my husband and kids must have hollow legs. And it's not like we're...

silkkat I understand the excitement of being pregnant and I feel that if you're a good friend you would share in her excitement. I also understand how heart broken you are and how you wouldn't want to hear so much about it. I think that if she is a good friend to you...

silkkat I think that whatever she feels comfortable with and whatever she wants to do then she should do it. If she does decide to bring someone to the alter with her then it should be someone who means alot to her. But honestly, in this day and age she should do...

I have to say I really want to weigh in on this subject. Ever since Rosie left her other show and lost her magazine, she seems to be extremely bitter. It's like she wants to stick it to everyone who is succesful around her. Then...

silkkat I agree. I used to love Rosie too. But first when she called Kelly Ripa homophobic for saying that she didn't want Clay Aiken to put his hand on her mouth was the start of it all. I agree that she should be proud of being gay but not everyhting that is done...

I do things in life and then I think "My parents made me that way." I don't use this as a crutch and I often try to change these behaviors, but it is obvious where the root of the problem started. I'm not saying in any way that...

silkkat I think that everyone causes some kind of distress to their children. Yes, some worse than others. I didn't have the best childhood but I never use it as an excuse I just try and do better for my children. I know that I have made mistakes with them but...

I am interested to see where people stand. How do you feel that a woman or a black may become president? Just for anyone's information, I am not racisist nor am I against women (heck I am a woman). But on that same note, I do...

silkkat I don't understand why you would think that. Any person is able to the job as long as they are qualified. What makes you think that a black man can not do the same job as a white man? A woman can do the job just as well as any man. The world needs to...

silkkat If you are flying and enjoying it then you are on top of a situation. If you are having a difficult time then it means that you are lacking control of a situation. You could be afraid of challenges or even sucess. Or it could mean that you feel like you can...

silkkat It won't ruin you for life as long as you keep paying the bills now. It will take time but it can come back. Trust me I know from experience. Ask your financial institution about a secured credit card to help build it up. But to be honest just stay away...
