I re-married recently and my husband spanks his kids,we all live together. I only spank for major offences. Should he spank my kids? I only read a few answers, but the majority of what I read are accusing "child abuse". That's just stupid. Discipline needs to be constructive. I did occasionally spank my daughter when she disobeyed, but I was consistent and therefore VERY rarely had to spank her (and never with a belt or anything but the hand). If you set rules, and are consistent w/whatever action you take w/the offense,...

What are your thoughts on bikers? My hsb is a biker ( a Harley since 2001), so I kinda like them. But, why did you speed up when you knew someone wanted to pass? I agree, a lot of those on "crotch rockets" seem to be totally unaware of the dangers & seek the "thrill". I say that because I live near a military base & one of the first things a lot of guys do when they come back from deployment is to get a new bike....

What are some attractive ways to decorate overhead alcoves in rooms throughout a house? Please, no dust collecting silk flowers. With paint, of course. Whether you stencil or free-hand, many decors will flourish with a little something special from you. That is something very personal, suited to your own taste. Whether it be something simple or very ornate, it would be entirely up to you. Plus, no dusting!!

Its not really worth it, you'd be rubbing your eye all night. You can get just about any contact you want on the net, but you really need to get fitted by a doctor first. Get the exam & get the prescription. Then if you want to shop around you have the proper specs for your eyes.

last night was the first time i had sex in my life. we used condoms.today, i took my first pill. would it help for me not to be pregnant? If you're asking if taking a pill after sex will help you to not get pregnant, the answer is "no". Hopefully, the condom helped you to not get pregnant & taking the pill (as scheduled) will continue to help you not get pregnant. Unprotected sex will get you pregnant. Taking a pill afterwards will not help. Go to a doctor, follow his/her instructions & continue with the protection...

I'm not in the habit of taking disposable utensiles along for the ride.

If you broke up over something stupid, tell her. It all depend on how much you really want to be with her, doesn't it? Swallow a little pride & go ask her to come back...or, just ignore her.

Book smarts, common sense, if you could only have one or the other which would you choose and why. I know people with both, either and neither!

Pencils, the same. Its all about choices and what you want out of the work.

Its not the same thing & should not be treated so flippantly. Probably by now, its not the "morning after" and you should see what a professional has to say. You cannot prevent something that has already happened. You can only deal with the aftermath.

I was removed from my house because a cop filed a false CPS report and said that I beat up my wife. My wife had no bruises.

Something just sounds "off" about this, unless you care to explain more it sounds like you're just mad you got busted and not her.

Although, I did tell my vet I'd allowed my pet a small drink of water a couple hrs prior to surgery & he said it wouldn't hurt. I guess it depends upon how much & what kind of surgery.

Sometimes she can be quiet and modest, and dress like a tomboy (skater-ish?), and other times outgoing and dresses somewhat revealing, but not extreme. How do I know what kind of girl she really is? Sounds like she's pretty well-rounded. That's who she is!

I'd been on Ortho for 10 years and recently switched to a generic brand. My boyfriend and I don't use condoms and he regularly cums inside me (I get up right away and hit the bathroom/shower). I am concerned about the effectiveness. Generic brands don't matter, the meds are the same. The problem is, you should check w/your doctor because most doctors today tell you that you shouldn't be on BC pills over 10 yrs. That is they PREFER you didn't; health reasons. Getting up & going to the bathroom right away does not do anything but make you clean. Talk to your doctor first. Then you & your bf should...

Why did the go or go home guys not put their cars into race trim at the coke zero 400 I know it is an impound race and they would have to start at the back but it is better than going a few laps down right? NO, because they actually had to qualify to race. Some couldn't be fast enough in race trim to make the race. They had to qualify to get in the race, then as laps went down they could pit & get into race trim. Its better to get into a race first, then worry about what's next.

When at the vet putting your pet to sleep, were you emotionally able to pay the fee at the counter? My dog "Susie" was 14 yrs old and I had to put her to sleep a few months ago. I called beforehand, to let the vet know "it was time". They were very compassionate & asked me if I wanted to pay before I went into the office, or if I wanted to be billed. They were great throughout the entire event. I was, however, pretty upset when I got the "Sympathy Card"...

How do i tell my friend that i like her? whenever she touchs me like on my leg or grabs my bum it a joke when i do it she thinks its a joke to and i get a bit upset when she flirts with boys because i know i cant have her What makes you think you can't have her. One of the sweetest relationships I had was with a friend, acting in much the same way. It developed into a passionate, but relatively brief, relationship. It was in college and we both moved on, but were always best of friends. I guess it depends upon the two of you. Who knows?

Of course this only worked because it wasn't a 8-5 type of business. There were people working from 7am to 10pm, in different shifts of course.

Concentrate on your own career path and just enjoy being with "guys" w/o considering what they're worth. I hope your "wealth" will come to you in a secure, loving & long-lasting relationship.

My best friend's ex always asked her for money even after they split up, she is too nice to say no,so i stepped in and wrote him a nasty email,asking him to stop because she doesnt have alot of money herself, she's mad that I wrote this, what should I do? Its nice that you want to stick up for your friend, but until your friend learns to stick up for herself you've just got them both mad at you. She'll learn the hard way. Just be there to support her. In the meantime, just let her know your opinion (as a friend would do), but let her make her own decisions.

When was the last time someone said to you "i love you"? When I first met my Hsb's Mother (before we go married) she would hug & say "I love you" when we were leaving. The first time I was so suprised I said it back. This was a woman I'd only met 2 times. She didn't even know me. From then on, until I could say it & mean it, my response was "Thank you".

My son has taken a VERY strange liking to me. He has been finding any excuses to kiss or hold me and he hounds me around the house. What should I do? I've read & agree with some of the answers already given, but, I feel that you need to sit him down and have a serious talk. Since you say its VERY strange to you, you need to put a stop to it. Immediately. If he has some kind of problem then it needs to be discussed & dealt with, but apparently his actions are not acceptable to you right now and you need them to stop.

Back in the day when parents raised children to have manners and respect, we were taught that men should remove their hats upon entering a building/room. I, in turn, teach this to my son... but I don't know why. Why is/was this considered disrespectful? I don't why, but it sure is a sign of good manners to me. I notice when men remove their hats like that, because to me it IS a sign of respect. I guess in other parts of the world there are other "old fashioned" acts that signify respect. Personally, its a shame so many kids don't have a parent like you to show them what manners & respect are. Good job! and thank you.

Am very sad about my boyfriend cheating on me,am very depressed.and every time i think about it,it hurts me more.but he tells me he's not and i know he loves me but am unsure about should i stay with him 6 yrs is a long time. he called me crying 6 years is a long time to be boyfriend/girlfriend.

I have more respect for myself than to stay with someone that doesn't want to be with me.

If you allow underage drinking you're just as responsible if they go out later, drink & drive and cause an accident.

Women in southern Sweden will in the future not be able to choose the sex of their gynaecologist. Allowing them to choose discriminates against male gynaecologists, it has been ruled.

This may lead some women neglect their health rather than see a doctor they do not want to see. I sure hope this idea changes soon, although I do go to a male gynacologist.

Although, my hsb thought it was really funny.

Is it appropriate to breastfeed in public? Are there some places where it is more/less acceptable than others? I don't see why its so much of a "debate". Personally, I would try & keep it a bit covered. Not so much as inappropriate (because its not), but because others may be embarassed or weirdos may get turned on. I try & see it as other may, and if in public you expose yourself to many walks of life. Mostly just consideration, but I would not hide out in the bathroom either.

My wife says it's ok to wash your butt in the shower but it's nasty to brush your teeth in it. I'm I in crazy land here? I brush my teeth in the shower. Its so much easier than bending down to wash off the drool at the sink. Plus I don't have the "overspray" to clean off the sink. It all washes down the shower drain!

It has also helped her at home, enabling her to realize that an unmade bed, once in a while, is not important.

Answer to:
Why do we, as humans, find it so difficult to disagree without being offensive? Have we really become so self-centered that we willingly disregard other people's feelings? Personally, I don't have to be in control of, or agree, with anyone's opinions. Differing opinions help us learn and grow. I do not feel I have to be offensive with my responses when I do not agree, nor does anyone else. I'm not sure its as much "self-centered" as it is a "control" issue.

If you found out your significant other was a convict, but wouldn't tell you the reason they were put in jail, would you still date them? NO. If I were having a relationship with someone I would hope that person would be honest with me. Having to "find out", instead of him/her telling me, he/she was a convict is already a big problem. Refusing to tell me why, I could not accept. We are talking about convicted felons, right? Not about somebody that just got locked up overnight in the local jail?

What's a good way to keep my puppy from eating things he finds on the floor? (Besides keeping things off the floor, because I vacuum three times a day, yet he manages to find things somehow) Have a cage for him. It gives him security and helps to establish boundaries. Provide toys & comfortable bedding. Its natural for a dog to have a "den", so provide him with one. Its not cruel, its more comfortable for him to have his own space. Let him out as often as you can supervise, or as much as you want. He and you both will be much happier. All puppies chew on things....

Many of our relatives & friends are quite willing & able to babysit but unable or unskilled in other areas. Payment doesn't always have to be monetary.
