Kids are Worth It by
Robyn Kozierok
I recently picked up the book "Kids are Worth I: Giving Your Child the
Gift of Inner Discipline" based on a recommendation (quite possibly
from this newsgroups, but I actually don't remember where). I have
read/skimmed a lot of it, and I like the philosophy, but I can't quite
figure out how to...

Does your preschooler sit at the dinner table with the family? by
Robyn Kozierok
My boys are 4, 8 and 11yo. When we sit down for a family dinner,
we don't currently force the 4yo to join us. We sometimes give him
something to eat earlier if he's hungry, but more often that not
he basically skips dinner, or eats only a few bites. He's very tiny,
but completely healthy. But...

Shoelaces by
Scott
What's the age record for not being able to tie shoelaces?
I'm just wondering if DS is going to set it :)
It's really interesting to watch -- DD had a friend who
*had* to be able to tie her shoes, and she accomplished
it at age 2. DS could not care less about this skill.
So his shoes are all...

Kids and Nutrition by
keira
I have two boys and a girl. They all like different foods. I insist on
making them the same thing, which is often a battle but getting easier
since I have not back downed once. I want to know if anyone has any kid-
friendly dinner and/or suggestions for finicky kids. I am concerned
about protein...

Kids birthday gift - collectible for boy - birthday train? by

already got a room full of sesame street, disney etc. I thought I

that works fine for a...

Hi there, my name is Alicia, I'm 29 and just had my first baby two months
ago. He's a wonderful baby, very alert, gorgeous and full of life. His

parenting by
dan
It's hard to let go of one's children after taking care of them from
conception and then on through their schooling. Our offspring learn
from a variety of sources which become more varied as they grow older.
For parents it has to be a case of allowing the independence while
maintaining the love. It...

Darned Standardized Tests by
Iowacookiemom
We moved to Texas last summer, where the "No Child Left Behind as long as he
passes tests" approach was born and has taken firm root. I thought Iowa was
fanatical about its preparation of kids for standardized tests, but what I'm
seeing here is lightyears beyond anything I have ever seen...

Anyone been through this? My seventh grader found out yesterday that

population growth, and they've hired two new seventh grade teachers
(taking the school from 12 to 14 7th grade homerooms). They randomly

Little One HATES the car seat! by
Alicia
My beautiful baby boy is now almost 12 weeks old, and since he was about 4
weeks old, he has hated the car seat! He screams like we're doing something
terrible to him, goes as stiff as a board when we try to put him in it and
sobs for about 15 minutes after we take him out. It is horrible! I...

preschooler's pants by

Are preschoolers intrinsically hard on pant's knees or is mine unique?
3 out of 7 days in the past week, my 4.5 year old has put holes in the
knees of her pants. Now in the defense of the pants, most of them are
two years old (this is the second year of her wearing these pants).
I guess I need to...

We recently had a dinner party, one couple, and four guests who were single.
After the party, one of my husband's comments was how much everyone there
travels. One of the guests left the party early because she was flying out

Did you get your kids a flu shot? by
Laura E. Brooks
Hi guys,
I'm a little worried about the flu. I live in NC, which isn't one of the
states currently designated an "epidemic" state, but it does have heavy
regional outbreaks in some areas. Last year, the kids got something which I
assume was the flu, and I've never seen them so knocked out. They...
