Lately our house has become the neighborhood hangout for my son's friends. While I LIKE that he has friends, they appear to have moved in. Morning, noon, and night they're here. Every figgin' day they're here. And I can't figure out why. I'm not particularly pleasant to them, I don't offer them...

Does anyone have any suggestions of games that work well with a wide range of ages (at once)? My 4yo just came in crying that his brother was cheating at "Sorry" after the 9yo got a Sorry card and bumped the 4yos piece back to start. :( My boys are 4.25, 9.0 and 11.75 yo and they all love to play...

My children go to medium sized elementary school, which has a very active PTA and parent participation is high. Two of the parents in my child's third grade class have formed very personal relationships with the teacher, one of the mother frequently socializes with the teacher outside of work...

My daughter is 10.5 and having trouble fitting in with her before-and-after-school program, which runs from preschool to 5th grade. She's having attitude problems, but on the other hand, I have to admit that the program she is in is designed for younger aged kids, even though it serves kids her...

My 12 year old is getting poor grades in school because she doesn't turn in her homework (class work and tests are fine). The homework organization has been an issue since forever, and we've tried everything. Any suggestions?

Evan (2.5yo) wants to know what sound zebras make. I have no idea! I guessed they might make a sound similar to a horse. Anyone know? I tired askJeeves and found a sound file but I couldn't play it. --Robyn

My 11 1/2 year old daughter loves the Sims -- and has been buying all the expansion packs like Superstar, Unleashed, and Vacation. Now she wants Hot Date. She's not particularly interested in the romantic stuff -- mostly in the other features it will give her Sims. She wants Downtown and wants them...

This morning I read an article in the paper regarding a 15 year old boy who the Secret Service questioned because he drew political cartoons that were against the war and President Bush. The article is he http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2001913678_prosser27m.html or...

A friend forwarded me a link to this blog entry: http://www.defectiveyeti.com/archives/001748.html It just cracked me up. I think I saw every single one of those expressions on my 13 year old daughter's face at a dinner with her grandparents the day before yesterday. -- Warm Regards,

Hi everyone. I know a kid who is 2 years, 3 months old and this kid does not speak any words *yet*. All this kid does is grunt when they want something or to show you something, etc. This kid appears to be pretty happy and is adorable. My kid was jabbering up a storm at 6 months old to 1 year...

A one year old will not remember their birthday in the future so IMHO I would save the party for when they are a little older. For my DS#1's first birthday we had one of his friends around for tea (a fairly regular 'date' anyway) and had cake and other stuff. He didn't really notice the...
