Sleepwalking child...

a death in the family? My mom has gone to my sister's home on hospice and it is just a matter of time that she will pass. My mom has been the grandmother symbol for my child. Because of loss of family contact from being placed with me to live, this child has experienced a lot of losses. She is about to turn 8. I would encourage her to be at the funeral and grave site ceremony, but do you think she is too young to be at the wake as well? It could be an opportuni ...

I went to the movies today, a new one that just came out about an overweight teenager from Harlem who was sexually abused by her father and mentally and physically abused by her mother. This movie was rated an R. Several years back it would have not had that lax of a rating. No prude here but the movie was completely filled with the most vile language I have heard in a movie but on top of that simulated rape scenes of the young teen with the father being the perpetrator. I saw many, many familie ...

My 12-year-old son argues with me about EVERYTHING. He is now saying that he wants to not go to college and live in a van. I told him fine, that is his decision when he is 18. He kept on with it because he wanted me to argue with him. I told him at this point when he is 12 there is no reason for me to argue about something like that...he kept on and on and on. It really bothers Melissa and she cries because Jake and I end up in debates/arguments almost every day and they are lasting ...

This is really cute, but this guy got himself in quit a predicament. Read the info at the top right about the poster of the video, this was him and his baby. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLErNXIYjMg ...

I have a 10-year-old son and I probably shelter him a little too much, but the world is crazy these days. So, he knows this boy from school and we see the kid EVERYWHERE at events that we go to, but I rarely ever see him with an adult or his parents. He is always wandering around alone. We even saw him at the fair (a place where I don't even allow my children to step 10 feet from me without me holding on to them) and he was alone. So, we were at an event a couple of weeks ...

Anyone out there have a child with a disability and recieved child support from their ex after the age of 18? Both of my boys have Asperger's syndrome, high functioning autism. My older son is turning 21 in May and his dad had stopped the child support after he graduated from high school (about two weeks after he turned 18). Now my younger son is turning 18 in May and his dad told me today that he is cutting off that child support at the end of May. Neither boy is ab ...

I am not sure what to do about my child and would like opinions on who to see or what. When my son was around 5 years old, we lived in a house and he would say he "saw people" in the house. I would see him standing there and he would jump as if something startled him, but of course nothing was there. It got to the point that I couldn't even step out on the front porch without him being right under me, afraid to be inside by himself. Well, later on, my 16-year-ol ...

Dtr owed over 8,000 in child support now and the sperm donor apparently has no intention of working. Child support enforcement will try to do "address verification" when we give them a new address but that's as far as that goes. Has anyone ever tried one of those companies that are supposed to help get your back owed money for a percentage? Do you know what the percentage is? ...

I was diagnosed with breast cancer yesterday, spread to the lymph nodes, and that is without a tissue diagnosis yet. It is that clear on the ultrasound. I adopted my granddaughter 7 years ago and that anniversary was this weekend. Four years ago this past weekend, my mother died and in her will left me her house and land. Unfortunately my sister had POA and had sold the house prior to my mom's death, then claimed there was nothing left of the estate - she kept the ...

My 5 year old daughter was being an all around menace: goofing off at the table, mouthing off, etc. She was not listening and laughing at my husband as he was trying to talk to her. He then tapped her on the mouth. Is this okay? I am a bit confused on the matter as I was never struck as a child. Please, I am asking for advice and not opening up the chance for negativity or people who want to bash me as a parent. Thank you ...

but they will picket the other ones. But, Fox is reporting a group called Angel Wings is going to be there at the funerals in groups of about 30 holding up fabric "Angel Wings" between the protestors and the funeral attendees. Good for them!! Wish I was close enough to join them. ...

I hope someone here has some knowledge into these things and can give some advice. I'm sorry this is so long.... I am concerned and sad for my nephew, who is being denied visitation unless supervised. My nephew is 19 years old. He met the mother of his child, and she became pregnant right off the bat it seemed. Before the baby was born, they married. When the baby, which was a little girl, was 3 months old, they called it quits and she left. A couple wee ...

I can't stand our justice system, I swear it makes me crazy! The news article, an Ohio man kills a 3-year-old child by having sex with her and suffocating her, which he ADMITS, but he actually gets a trial, because he is fighting the death penalty, because he didn't mean to kill her, he only meant to rape her! I mean, WHAT! He apparently was drunk and mad at his girlfriend (The child's mother) because she wouldn't have sex with him, so he decided to have sex ...

My friend has a child that had fevers (nothing else at all)around Thanksgiving, was taken to doctor. Fevers resolved and now back again, just fever. Has anyone had something similar with your child? Thanks. ...

I spent hours while growing up doing things I enjoyed. I spent hours at my house in the attic looking through big storage trunks that contained so many interesting things to me. I also loved going to a small stream close to my house to watch and collect things like minnows that I tried to grow into a frog, salamanders. Now as an adult I have not really one close friend, no one that I talk with on a regular basis. Am married and that is a close relationship, not lonely because I keep busy with my ...

Was just talking with my friend tonight. I have known as she has also for years that her 1st grader was not 100% "right," something was off with him. Tonight she tells me someone is finally maybe listening to her about him. He is in his own little world. I do not think autism because of the fact he will halfway interact "sometimes," does not reject a hug or kiss and maybe I am wrong but I thought autistic children were like that. I could be wrong. His teacher is every day trying to tell the moth ...

these kids should be having a wonderful time this season, getting ready for Santa Claus and baking cookies with their mom and dad, decorating the tree and being read stories before bed. But they are being beaten and taken out of their homes to live with strangers. Just breaks my heart. Honestly, sitting here crying and praying for these little babies. What the heck is wrong with people? ...

under a new piece of legislation introduced in the state's House of Representatives, employers would be able to pay anyone under the age of 20 as little as $5.25 an hour for their first 180 days on the job. The bill, LD 1346, also eliminates the maximum number of hours a minor 16 years of age or older can work on a school day and allows a minor under the age of 16 to work up to four hours on a school day during hours when school is not in session. With Maine's unemployment above ...

What could anybody's motive be for not reporting a child missing for 31 days and when the child is reported missing it is by a relative. Is not reporting a missing child a criminal act in your state? ...

Hello out there...my 22-year-old is home from college this summer and is going to take care of my neighbor's 2 daughters, ages 5 and 6, a couple of days a week probably for around 8 hours a day. What would be a good rate for her to charge? It's been so long, I don't even have a clue. I used to do daycare before my illustrious transcription career so I know people can't pay a normal minimum wage. Would 5/hr be good? Any suggestions would be greatl ...

This young tween just posted a picture and the teacher saw and said adorable. She then thanked him and said miss u. He was a teacher to her and another sibling of hers. He then said we miss you and asked if they could Skype or iChat with CB over the summer. What do you think, innocent or not. ...

Ted Turner founder of Commie News Network (CNN) and TBS at Cancun global summit wants one-child policy instituted. What a moron, but he is a progressive/lib after all. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/ted-turner-urges-global-one-child-policy-to-save-planet/article1825977/ ...

I have listened to commentators, lawyers and jurors in Casey Anthony case and I am unable to understand how if a child goes missing and it is not reported this is not abuse. Wouldn't the primary person providing care for a child need assistance to look for the child at a certain point and if that person didn't get proper help from authorities in a timely manner and the child was harmed or killed would that be neglect/ab ...

My son is 10 years old and complains like an old man. Bless his heart! My heart breaks for him. My husband thinks he is just a drama king (and admittedly he can be at times), but I really and truly believe he is in pain and just has health issues. He tested positive for environmental allergies when he was 7 years old and had allergy shots for awhile, and was on Zyrtec, and a plethora of allergy medications. Now he is only taking Claritin p.r.n. and seems to be doing ...

I'm linking the article below, but first a comment. My better half is a coder but works half of the day getting authorizations for treatment. The clinic (3 docs) is having to consider hiring a full-time person just to do this, because it's become almost impossible to get authorization even for patients who have been on certain meds and treatment protocols for years and literally need them to stay alive or, in other cases, to have any kind of a life at all. I wondered when ...

Hillary Clinton weighed in on her 1975 legal defense of an accused child rapist on Saturday, her first comments on the case since it came under scrutiny following a Washington Free Beacon report last month. Clinton spoke in clinical, legal terms while explaining her defense of the rapist, who Clinton helped to avoid a lengthy prison term by relying on a technicality relating to the chain of evidence of his blood-soaked underwear, as well as arguing at the time that the 12-year-old victim may ha ...

Jumana Nagarwala, 44, of Northville Michigan is accused of performing female genital mutilation on underage girls. According to a criminal complaint, Nagarwala performed the procedure on girls ages six to eight years old at a medical clinic in Livonia. Some of the children were brought from out of state for the illegal procedure. Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is considered the complete removal or partial removal of the clitoris, known as a clitoridectomy. FGM is internationally recogniz ...

The radio station I listen to has a weekly "therapy" session where someone writes in with a problem. It is all in fun, but sometimes thought provoking, such as this week's question: Parents asked Son (age not given) to write his gift requests on paper. He only wanted an XBox. Of course, the most expensive model. Parents told Son they could not afford that, so he returned a blank sheet of paper to them and said if they did not get him that, he wanted nothing. Father thinks they should gr ...
