Tween decorating 101 -- Lime green bedspreads, anyone? by
iowacookiemom
Henry is busily decorating his new room in our soon-to-be occupied new
home in Texas. His color scheme is denim-like blue and lime green.
The influences of Trading Spaces are showing -- he is insistent that
we can make anything we can't find, and doesn't seem to realize that
the folks on Trading...

budgeting activities (timewise) by
Karen G
When preschool started this fall, I wasn't terribly thrilled about
keeping my daughter in gymnastics. She wanted to continue, so we kept
going. In the meantime, she has had some changes in teachers and has
become less and less interested in paying attention and following
directions. She has also...

Does Carbonation really damage teeth? by
Robyn Kozierok
My children's dentist just told me not to ever let my kids have any
carbonated drinks because carbonation is "pure evil" because the
carbonic acid produced by carbonation erodes teeth. I find this
hard to believe. I can see that sugary carbonated drinks would have
the same issues as other sugary...

motivate HS sophomore by
Chilly Mike
Hello,
My son is a HS sophomore who is capable of doing better than his 3.2
GPA indicates. I've been considering rewarding him with money if his
report card GPA is higher than 3.20, but I'm not sure if that would
help. Then I think that if he doesn't improve his grades, I'll cut
back his TV time,...

Thoughts on Halloween by
Harold Buck
Just a few random thoughts on Halloween:
========================================
My son just turned 2 this week, and if *he* can remember to say "Thank
you" to people giving him candy, then the older kids should be able to
remember.

Chess books for 7yo? by
Robin
I'm working out the holiday book list for my kids, and I could use
some advice on a chess book for my 7yo.
Roger's in second grade, and he has been playing chess with a school
club since last year. It's definitely more recreational than
instructional; the kids get together and play games with one...

CTTS -- 10 YO by
Catherine Moore
I have been meaning to post this for a few weeks. Better late than never.
We had two separate conversations with E 10YO on the same weekend.
The first had to do with the age-old question. If a tree falls in a forest
and no one is there to hear the sound, does it make a noise? Which led to

THANKS: Character of a growing girl (middle school question) by
Beeswing
First, I want to say that describing our middle school as "inner city"
is an overstatement...our city doesn't have an "inner city" as you might
visualize one. The school is urban, it does have related drawbacks, and
I do have concerns relative to this. But it's not as bad as all that,
and I'm sorry...

Teach Your Baby to Read by
Stan
Hello all,
I'm interested in hearing good and bad opinions on the now 40 year old
"teach your baby to read" book. I've heard a lot of "bad science"
claims about Doman et al, and if anyone has anything good to say
long-term about his programs for well children, it certainly doesn't
appear they do so...

Hi everyone,
Thanks for your input on baby naming. I've tentatively decided to
switch the names around (Artemis for the first name; Hypatia for the
middle). This weekend I was having brunch with a vegetarian friend of
mine-- he, of course, raised his eyebrows (but didn't comment) when...

Allergies, anxiety or illness? by
Iowacookiemom
Last night Henry (11 yo) was studying spelling with my husband. He was having
a harder time than usual with it. Out of nowhere, he began removing most of
his clothing, saying that he was very hot. Then he began vigorously scratching
himself all over his body, saying he itched. He became...

CTTS: toddler pronoun use and counting by

Subject: CTTS: Toddler pronoun use and counting
Like many toddlers, my 2.5yo has some confusion over the use of
pronouns. He started out referring to himself exclusively as
"you", but he now uses a combination of "I", "you" and "we"
(perhaps he thinks he's royalty) in...

financial aid question by
H Schinske
I recently checked out the web page of a private school where I am, and was
surprised to discover that they make a difference in how they calculate family
income for financial aid purposes if there is a stay-at-home parent.
Essentially they use a figure for what the parent could in theory be making...
