I just saw an old note here asking about where to find a pick your own farm (U-pick, PYO) for strawberries, and I thought I'd add that you can find a pick your own farm or orchard for fruit (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, apples, etc.) and vegetables, pumpkins, Christmas...

I've just given birth a little more than 2 weeks ago and now I'm starting to think about birth control options. I have been on the pill and depo in the past and didn't do so good on it. I had anger and anxiety problems while on them. So I'm looking for an alternative but as silly as it sounds I...

Lied Lodge & Conference Center http://www.liedlodge.org/ Anyone here from Nebraska? I was researching arbor day and ran across this. It looks like a great place for a small family to vacation? I could not believe the room rates. Has anyone on the list stayed there? or is it more for business...

HI, I didn't know so many responded to my problems with my little brother (through Big Brothers Big Sisters) because I didn't check the newsgroup. I don't agree with some of you by the way you are blaming me and seem to be giving me wrong for what happened with him. I don't think I explained...

I've been visiting another set of grand kids, and I am unhappy about what they are eating or rather not eating. My DIL does not eat beef, although she does eat pork, chicken and seafood. I haven't asked her why. She doesn't keep ds from eating beef tho. We've been with them for 5 meals over 3...

Wasn't there a thread recently where someone was asking about how to teach a child to read? (Or maybe I'm thinking of another forum.) Anyway, I can't find it, but I've just put up a web page on this topic. Two pages actually. They're on my parenting...

I wanted you all to know that this lot of baby girl clothes is available on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8102254665&category=57830&sspagename=STRK%3AMESSE%3AIT&rd=1 They really are nice clothes & I could use the money - daycare is killing me!! $1470 per month for the...

I moderate a teen chatboard, and one of the girls who is a regular there admitted that she regularly cuts and scratches herself. She's under a lot of school pressure-she transferred this year to a very academically intense magnet school, and she's had a lot of problems making friends. I don't...

Looking for double jogging stroller to BUY. Call Jennifer at 8397424.

I've been really bad with baby clothes--they're just too darned cute. Fortunately Genevieve keeps growing and the seasons keep changing, so more clothes are required ;-) I find that I am somewhat addicted to Janie and Jack, though I am good and wait for the sales (because the prices are completely...

My father is a severe alcoholic, and consequently I've had almost no contact with him for many years. (My parents have long since divorced.) I don't intend for my kids ever to see him, because I couldn't be sure of their physical or emotional safety if they did. DH and I are both in agreement on...

Two posts in one morning, wow. Not so DH and I separated two months ago and while we've tried to keep things as stable as possible for the kids, behavioural issues are cropping up. I've been told that this is fairly normal, but that doesn't mean it's easy to deal with and I need some practical...

Hi -- I'm seeking advice from those who have twins (or more), or who have worked with twins. How do you offer them lots of choices? When I pick my two up from daycare and say, "Would you like to go home or go to the playground", invariably one wants to go home and one wants to go to the...
