Teenagers DO have certain typical behaviors which are related to their hormones, their social development, and the actual physical maturity of their brains. But "typical" doesn't mean "universal" -- not EVERY teen displays these traits...

HELP before my life falls apart!!!<br /><br />You need to learn how to entertain yourself. You need to learn to be comfortable with time alone to think.

It's the same stuff they give to rape survivors in the Emergency Room. You...

However, the farmer is not legally responsible if someone else's pet comes onto their property and eats poison. Again, I'm very sorry about your dog. My dogs used to roam loose in farm country, too, and it's hard to take that freedom away, but sometimes you...

Keep your next cat inside, or take it out only on a leash, or build it a FENCED outdoor enclosure for sunbathing, etc. Don't let your cat be a free-roaming street cat. Ever.

But he would also not put it in writing, he said he doesnt want any thing to do with it. what legal action can she take.<br /><br />She can see a "personal injury" attorney -- usually, a first meeting is free -- and see if they want to take the case. Her lawyer can subpoena the vet, who will HAVE to testify. Will they dare to commit perjury and pretend they didn't identify it? Probably not, because the legal risk of...

The people who sold me the cabin did not tell me they had put the poison inside, but they knew we had dogs. Are they legally responsible?<br /><br />Heck yes, it's worth making a fuss about. What if you had brought a toddler to the house? Talk to a "personal injury" attorney about this. Usually, the first consultation is free.

You can call the newspaper and tell them she's lying, but how can you prove it? How can you prove it's your dog who sired the litter? This is a bad situation. You need to neuter your dog RIGHT AWAY.

However... hair is made of keratin, and the keratin has a surface called the "cuticle" -- (yes, same word as for the tissue at the base of your fingernails). A cool or cold rinse supposedly makes the cuticle lie flat, all in one direction, and supposedly this makes the hair...

Isn't this enough to prove abstinence only doesn't work?<br /><br />Yes, it proves abstinence-only education doesn't work -- but it proves it to SANE people, not all people. :( Sat, 19 Jun 2010 18:19:08 -0700 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/9214514 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/9214510 abstinence....Doesn't sex cause more harm than good?

They were complaining before he even took office. ALSO --- Partisanship.

I was thrilled when Obama lifted the restrictions on family planning overseas. Women were dying for your stupid rule. Not only did they not have access to abortion, they didn't have access to birth control, either, because of this rule. The rule killed people. ACTUAL...

Do I have the right to deny them seeing their grandchildren in Nova Scotia Canada?<br /><br />I don't know Canadian law. In the U.S., different states have different laws and all of those laws are being questioned (from both sides). In the U.S., the right to parent is a "fundamental right" -- meaning one which gets the highest level of judicial scrutiny -- and state laws really have...

An ER doctor where i live had burst my right fallopian tube so i had surgery and had to get it removed, so now i only have the one. Is it possible that i can still get pregnant and still have a healthy pregnancy?<br /><br />You have two excellent answers already, but I wanted to chime in too. You can indeed get pregnant with only one healthy, intact tube. And if you don't have a good tube on your left side, if your ovaries are still functioning, a doctor can harvest your eggs, fertilize them with your partner's...

Is it possible?<br /><br />YES, absolutely, you may be pregnant. There are semen present in the fluid a man leaks before his orgasm. It doesn't matter that it was "only three minutes" and it doesn't matter that he didn't ejaculate inside you. It DOES matter if you are on birth control. Get to a doc and find out what's...

However, if a "Christian" name s important to you, you may wish to skip Morgan. Morgan, Morgana, Morgaine, and similar names are related to the pre-Christian Welsh &amp; Celtic goddess called The Morrigan. The best-known uses of these names in English...

I recentley had one of my tubes removed, and the chances of me getting pregnant are slim... has this happened to anyone? and if so please send hope my way!!<br /><br />I can't believe no one answered you for a year and a half! Anyway, calm down -- you can indeed get pregnant with only one tube. You should have plenty of hope if you have one healthy, intact tube. And if you don't, if your ovaries are still functioning, a doctor can harvest your eggs,...

There is NO "safe time" in a woman's menstrual cycle when conception cannot occur. There is NO method 100% effective for detecting when a woman is fertile.

Am I a fool?<br /><br />You two are on different life schedules. Don't try to force yourself to fit hers; don't try to force her to fit yours. There are MANY women who would like to marry and have children right away. You can have your choice of those women. It's good that this got out in the open BEFORE the marriage.

Should wives be able to control what their husbands do with their bodies?<br /><br />He MARRIED her. He didn't BUY her. Her body. Her choice. But in a good marriage, they will talk about this a lot -- ideally, before the situation ever comes up -- and will come to a loving agreement on whatever decision is made.

I'm torn. Do I have this one now when I can hardly provide for the child I have now? Or do I end it so that I can better myself for the child I already have?<br /><br />You asked this question two years ago. Do you mind saying what you decided, and how you feel about it? I hope things worked out well.

I thought about abortion at first but now I'm having second thoughts. He wants me to have an abortion. If I don't then I'm having a kid against his wishes, right?<br /><br />Right, you're having a kid against his will, but it is YOUR body and YOUR decision. If you bear the child, even against his will, he has to pay child support. This is true in every state of the U.S. So... you asked this question three years ago. How did things turn out?

I watch a child 11 hours of the day, i feed a 3 course meal and even give baths.. I ask her all the time why she is so late and why she can't pay on time... she acts clueless.. Why?<br /><br />Everyone has given you good advice. 1. Don't sit for her until all the money she owes you is paid. 2. Payment IN ADVANCE before each date. 3. A frank discussion of what should happen if she's late. Ask her, does she want to pay double after midnight? Or would she rather you took the child...

Is it okay to have sex with her?<br /><br />All the other answers are wrong so far. Whether sex with her is LEGAL depends on which state you live in. The age of consent varies from state to state. Also, some states have "Romeo &amp; Juliet" laws, in which it's legal for, say, an 18 y.o. to have sex with a 16 y.o., but NOT okay for a 20...

Because it doesnt make sense that it would be my second cousin because my second cousin would be MY cousins kid.<br /><br />Your mom's cousin is her "first cousin." Because you are one generation younger, your mom's cousin is your "first cousin, once removed."

But I don't know if he feels the same way. I don't know what to tell him, and I'm really scared...<br /><br />First off, the first answer is wrong. Cousins can marry in several U.S. states, including my own state, Virginia. That doesn't mean it's a good idea, and you'd need to do genetic screening before having children together. Yep, your families would flip out. What I'd like to know is how old the...

We both love each other ALOT! But besides the age difference.<br /><br />NO 13-year-old can "date" a 27-year-old, whether he is her cousin or not. It is not just inappropriate, it's illegal. If you love him, don't ruin his life. When you are twenty and he is 34, then you can reconsider the situation. Meanwhile, forget it. Forget it completely. It's okay to...

And I can&#039;t date Republicans, but that&#039;s pretty much saying the same thing.
