reading by
Stephanie
DS (5) has shown an interest in reading. He can sound out very simple words,
but I don't really know where to go from here. Does anyone have book
recommendations or does anyone know anything about hooked on phonics, except
that it's expensive?
Thanks.

Hi,
I will be traveling from Florida to China next month with my one-year-old

I have a 6yr old son who when he's in school has the behavior of his
criminal biological father. My son is a great kid (normally) but
recently he has started to lie and be disobedient. When he was in
kindergarten last year he acted out and that was attributed to some
things going on between my...

Scriptural perversion among toddlers is a problem by
Maaxx
I once went to my local nursery school to find them teaching the Good Word to
the children, but they had grossly simplified the Word of God and were using
videos of animated vegetables with strange versions of the tale.
Whats wrong with giving them the Old Testament? The first thing I ever...

itinerant teachers by
Anonymama
My three-year-old son qualifies for an itinerant teacher if we can find
a preschool for him, because of his... ah... poor social skills. (He's
also in the 99th percentile for cognitive and language skills, we found
out, if a mother may be forgiven for bragging.) Do any of you have
experience...

4 Year Old Cries Before Pre-School by
[email protected]
Our son, who is turning four next month, has been going to pre-school
since September.
He only goes twice a week for two and a half hours. Our problem is
that he begins crying on the schooldays the minute he wakes up and
realizes its a school day and continues until he is dropped off at
9:15. It...

A Not Birthday Party by
Penny Gaines
This weekend, we are giving the 6yo a party in her honour. It
is her first ever party for her friends: her birthday is in
August so the school holidays have always got in the way.
However, we want to do all the normal party things: ie games, a party
tea, a cake.
I'm not quite sure what to do...

child acting up in public by
toypup
What to do when you can't readily walk out? I was in the hospital urgent
care with DD today and DS was begging for attention. He just couldn't keep
still and was an embarrassment to be around. TBH, I don't quite blame him
for not being able to keep still for 5 hours straight. That's tough for a...

Poll running in the house by
Nikki
I wondered how many peoples kids run through the house?
How old are they?
If it happens, how do you react/handle it?
Does it happen when they are alone or only in groups?
Are some houses 'run free' :-)

throwing blocks by
Sara
Ollie (14 months) got a great set of wooden blocks for Christmas from
his Mormor. We both like playing with them, but after a few minutes he
starts throwing them. He doesn't throw them at me; he throws them at
the floor, but it's still annoying. Any suggestions on how to get him
to stop? I've tried...

Wouldn't Want To Go To School Today by
Way Back Jack[_9_]
If you use as a measuring stick the success you have enjoyed and the
ability to retire in your early 50s, Catholic elementary school in the
1950s and Catholic high school in late '50s-early '60s sho nuff worked
for me. It contributed at least significantly, albeit not totally.
It wasn't for...

SAHM? (and dads, of course!) by
xkatx
For those who might be around both, I had posted a little while ago about
having some sort of help around the house as far as daily life goes (ie,
putting dirty dishes in the sink, picking up dirty laundry, toys, etc.) and
that doesn't seem to be helping.
Now, though, this all brings me to a...

The etiquette of contagion by

Jamie has a low-level tummy bug. Several runny nappies since yesterday
which now seem to be resolving, and basically fine in himself apart from
occasional bit of whinginess.
The La Leche League meeting is tomorrow, and I'm wondering whether I

dinosaurs *rant only* by
bizby40
Having read this group for so long, you sort of get the impression that most
moms out there are "in the know." That they read the parenting books and
magazines, are up on the latest info, and are trying to do their best for
their child. Well, the last is probably true anyway.
So I'm playing an...

If the teacher is Miss Herfirstname . . . by
toypup
Am I Mrs. Mylastname? I'd feel funny being Miss Myfirstname. I even feel
funny being Mrs. Mylastname. It's so formal. I like being Myfirstname, but
that's too informal, if I have to call the teacher Miss Herfirstname, which
I figure I have to, since she introduced herself that way. What is the...

Shaving legs by
Sue
Hi group,
For those of you with older girls, did you have a particular age that you
started letting your girls shave their legs? What did you factor in your
decision to start letting them shave, other than the maturity to handle it?
Thanks so much.
