Bratz dolls - banned at my house!

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...

Do you keep fresh flowers in your home?

snowy @snowy22315 (180362) • United States 27 Sep 16

I love fresh flowers, but I am hesitant to buy them because I think the cat would chew on them plus they are a bit expensive at times. I try to get them, if I have money in the budget. I have some flowers outside. What about you?...

urchin I would buy a very nice house and a decent car, invest some into the business I want to start, and then invest the rest elsewhere so we can live off of the interest. :)

urchin Of course. I've seen my son's father cry many times - and he's 22 years old. Maybe you are just more comfortable in your masculinity than most men. ;)
