This is my first post...glad I found this group! My best friend and I spend quite a bit of time together, and both have kids who are exactly the same age. Mine is a girl, and hers is a boy (age 4). They have always been close, which is nice, but now it is becoming a bit much. They go to the...

G'day I don't post much on m.k, but I read on and off and really appreciate everyone's advice, so now I need some.. It's been my experience in general that as soon as a new parenting situation comes up, if I wait as long as it takes to realize this is a "trend" not just a once or twice occurence,...

My 1 yr old DD has recently been throwing what we think are tantrums. Not every night, but on some nights when she's put into her crib after her bottle, she screams at the top of her lungs. It sounds like a tantrum. Last night she did it and we let her go. After about 20 minutes, she settled...

I'm trying to put together a recommended resources list for parents in my infant music class, so if anyone has any favorite books, websites, videos, etc for ASL (we're using ASL in class, so I don't want to recommend the "make up your own signs" method materials, just to avoid confusion)...

For those that doubt! --------------------------- My own daughter was ****ing boys in her room at age 11 with our blessing and had an "adult" partner when she was 12 (she was lots more mature than they were, actually). Steve Do you deny saying that you had sex in front of them?

I posted this in rec.arts.movies.past-films, but they haven't responded, so I thought I'd try here, if you don't mind. Well, I searched in Amazon and found a few. Trouble is, the reviews aren't always that descriptive and they're often sent to the wrong versions!

any suggestions would be appreciated DK

My daughter is about 17 month old now and she hardly speaks anything except that never stops saying emm and ahh. We are an immigrant family living in Australia and we speak chinese at home. I am worried about the language development of my daughter. Our doctor said that it may be because she gets...

Is it normal for a 4 year old to stutter? She does it only sometimes. It's like she is repeating the words a few times over every now and then rather than echoing them.

Just kidding, sort of. I wasn't sure how to title this for this newsgroup. It's "Mafalda & Friends." (Easily the world's best comic strip!) Check out the only two English-language volumes available that I know of, published in 2004. (In Spanish, there are 10.) For those unfamiliar with it, it's...

My daughter is 23 months and doesn't say her own name yet. I'm not at all worried about it -- she is really very verbal (hundreds of words, 3-4 word sentences) and very self aware. She refers to herself as "Me". As in, what is your name? Me. She talks about the people in our family -- whose...

Hi. I am the mother of an 11 month old and I am wondering if I can/should start whole milk. I am breastfeeding now, but she is becoming less interested in drinking and I am more than ready to quit. She also doesn't like formula at all. I would rather just go straight to whole milk instead of...

DS has been a champ about going on his little potty for the past year, but has shown no interest in using the toilet. While I don't want to mess with a good thing, he has a *very* healthy digestive system, and I'm getting kinda tired of washing poops out of his potty 2-5 times a day! Anyone with...

Ok - So I haven't been here a lot lately. I go today and I see movie reviews (why would misc.kids be a good place for these?), and a lot of spam. Oh yeah, once in awhile a good thread. What the hec happened? Almost makes me want to go to a moderated group. Sunshine
