4 Year Old Always Says "I'm a Good Boy"

Hi there... this is totally new to me... so please be patient. I have recently started babysitting my 4 year old godson.

My son got mad... but my godson says (about every 5 mins or...

Visitation or Funeral?

My daughters friends father passed away. She knew his dad. I was wondering if we should go to the visitation or the funeral. It is all today and I will be taking her out of school. It is a boy down the street that she isn't good friends with anymore but they were and don't hang out anymore but see each other at school. She feels really bad for him. He used to come down here and hang out all the time until they got a little older so we know him well. I treat all the kids in my neighborhood pretty good. How much should I write a check for too...

Birthday Present Ideas for Son's 16 Yr Old Girlfriend

My son will be attending his "girlfriend's" Sweet 16 birthday party and asked what he should get her. They've only been "going together" for a couple of months, which means a lot of texting and only one date with friends. A bracelet or necklace seems too personal and a gift card too impersonal. Any ideas and suggestions?

What Do You Think About...

My two year old hates getting in the stroller. When you put him in he screams that he wants to walk. I would love to allow him to walk beside me but he won't do it. He wants to walk on his own and touch everything. On occasion, I was thinking of getting one of those, well, I'm not sure what to call it other than a leash. My first thought is that I do not have a pet. I just want to allow him some independence and walk like everyone else.

Dirty Teddy Bears!

My now 2-yr. old received her fair share of teddy bears over the last 2 years - most of them are WHITE! Adorable, but what were they thinking?! Can anyone share their experiences/success stories with just throwing them in the washer? This is dirt that cannot be dabbed off :) Thanks!!

2 Qs...Bouncers And Teddy Bears.

SOOOO.... 2 questions... 1~ My DD is 3 months old. Is this too young to get her a bouncer? I want to get one of those activity bouncers...She can sit on her own (she needs help getting there... but once she's sitting she is good.) and has excellent head control... She also loves to "stand" for up to 5 minutes at a time. (she is standing on her own, just uses us for balance. lol) She has a floor gym that she likes... but she gets MAD if she is laying down too long. She wants to be sitting or standing. We put her in her bouncy chair, but...

2 1/2 Year Old Daughter Self-stimulating

My almost 3 year old daughter has always been very tactile. She is a thumb sucker, blanket rubber, and has always liked to rub the soft side of velcro or her daddy's scratchy beard to self-soothe. She is very verbal and active but doesn't like crowds or large playgroups (more than 3 or 4 children) esp. if she doesn't know everyone. It really bothers her if there are people around whose names she doesn't know. Anyhow, as early as 12 months she would tighten her abdomen muscles whenever she was contained in a carseat, grocery cart, etc....
