There are no particular words. Is anything wrong about it?<br /><br />I believe this specific speech disorder is called Immediate Echolalia.

She treats her husband like dirt and he is such a good guy. Military man, college student, great father, smart, funny. She has nothing good to say about him and it drives me nuts.

For my kids however, I believe that the middle name should be of importance and be tied to a person that you really care about, or has some meaning to your family. Oldest daughter = my middle name Oldest son = dad&#039;s middle name ...

She would say, &quot;Were you aware that most of the world&#039;s best chefs are men&quot;? He would say something moronic, as stupid men that think along this way are apt to do, and she...

Has anyone here read it? and if you have, will the writing style and storytelling appeal to adults, or is it a teenybopper story gone goth?<br /><br />My daughter read the books last summer when her Young Women leader recommended them (We are Mormon). I agreed to see the movie with her although I find vampires to be laughable. I enjoyed Anne Rice as a teen, but that was so long ago. After seeing the movie, my interest was piqued and I agreed...

New Moon is my favorite because I really like Jacob and it shows what a comforting friend he was to Bella.<br /><br />I am nearly done with Eclipse, but so far New Moon has been my favorite. Although I hated Jacob throughout the entire book, I was on the edge of my seat waiting for Edward to return. I don&#039;t hate Jacob because I prefer Edward. Jacob is just a jerk.

I am nearly done with Eclipse and he is a whiny and pompous jerk. I want Edward to kill him already. I have no idea what Bella sees in hi, even when he was just &quot;her Jacob&quot;, as she puts it. He does not have one redeeming quality. It is not surprising that his...

If you think they have, do more research. Secondly, it is wrong to hit someone that is weaker than you. Should a parent slap their child across the face because &quot;they initiated it&quot;?

For an example When should they take their nap, eat, go to bed for the nite?<br /><br />A lot of this is going to depend on this particular child.

I had sex with man 1 june 21-24 and than with man 2 on june 28. Who fathered my child. I did not use protection with man 1 is he the dad if so why is due date so far.<br /><br />This depends a lot on how long your cycles are. If you have a normal cycle range of 28 days, then it is much more likely that man1 fathered your child, as ovulation would have occurred during those dates. A longer cycle, 29-35 days, would make it more likely that man2 is the father. i am...

I asked him if I was wrong to do that, and he said nothing.Why would he do that?<br /><br />It sounds like your boyfriend may have lost interest in you, but doesn&#039;t have enough experience in relationships to know what to do about that. he is letting you make all of the decisions so that he doesn&#039;t have to feel guilty.

Anyone find that strange? Will I look bad to my inlaws if I don't go?<br /><br />I don&#039;t think this is strange at all. Most women will register for their baby showers as they are trying to follow themes and don&#039;t want to end up with 23 baby blankets. You have the right to diverge from that list, but they are some great suggestions so that you will bring a gift...

We have been trying about 2 times a week but she still only wants my breast. Any suggestions?<br /><br />If you are really wanting her to take a bottle, then you need to be offering them much more frequently.
