thumper2 The safety of your children should be your number 1 priority. If you think he is going to be abused then keep him away from those people even if they are relatives. If you do choose to visit, maybe you should be totally honest with your family and tell them...

LeslieD @LeslieD (59) • United States 6 Jan 07

Ok, I know I'm an older mom, but when I see the Bratz dolls on the shelves, it makes me sad. All the make up, the short mini skirts, the hoochie clothing. Disgusting. I know Barbie wasn't exactly the best roll model for a...

AngEngland @AngEngland (320) • United States 6 Jan 07

Do you co-sleep with your baby/children? Why or why not? My friend and I were having this discussion on the phone earlier and it made me curious what you guys think. I sort of did and sort of didn't. I usually had trouble...

thumper2 When the kids were little we didn't allow them to sleep with us because we were afraid of laying on or smothering one of them. This happened to one of my neighbors, the dad woke up and couldn't find the 3mo. old and to his horror the baby was under him. It was...

thumper2 How could you think of such a thing? The child will not be neglected if you include him/her in with the new baby. Abortion is murder. You do not abort children out of convenience for the other sibling-that makes no sense at all. Maybe the first child would...
