I just turned 18 and I feel a little lost at times. I don't know what do with my life and feel like im not in the place I want to be. So what should I do when im at this pont in my life where I still feel like a girl but now that I am 18 I am forced to act like a woman?What advice would you give someone that has just turned 18?
being 18 is hard u have alot of choices to make! dont worry though find a career go to college and find a job!....u can still have fun when u have time off but u gotta learn first comes work then play!!! be resposible but at the same time let loose and have fun!What advice would you give someone that has just turned 18?
Go to school now don't put it off. It sucks even more starting classes at 20 and not being able to remember anything from high school. Don't act grown up enjoy the time you have now to have fun and be young. Don't move out on your own and if you move out have lots of roomates.
You are going to have to figure out what it is that you want to be doing with your life. If you can't figure it out. Try doing different things until you find something that you like.
First of all... you don't have to act like anything...Just be yourself...and by the way you are still just a little girl just in a bigger body, when i was eighteen Man I thought I knew everything, I was wrong! wisdom comes with age and time so don't push yourself so hard because before ya know it your getting older and finding yourself writting these things. I was a wild child and now I teach my daughter (she's 11 now) to do the right thing and to be herself above all! your probably just having a bad day it will get better. Just look at one day at a time, don't live for the future live for today.. It will all come when the time is right. Trust Me..sunnydays
there are times when you can joke around and have fun like a young girl, but you will know when you need to serious and mature and act like a woman. don't sweat over it!
You know what, so many people feel that way when they turn 18. It seems like you are supposed to be a woman, but in all actuality, people will still think of you as a young person. Take it easy. Don't rush around trying to figure out your life plan. It will work itself out. You have time to think about it. What are you interests, hobbies? What makes you happy? Don't freak out. Things happen for a reason. Good Luck!
Go out and lkive a good life but do go out actin a fool just have fun cuz oyu're not getting any younger
watch your credit..
just because you can go get credit more easier.. i'd be careful...
i got carried away with mine and my credit rating has suffered..
as well as my bf and a few of our friends would probably recommend the same thing..
credit.. life is all about it.. so make sure you take it seriously
live ur life and do what makes u happy, no matter what it is.......life is too short!
just relax, it will all come to you and one day day you will see that the best things you did were ones that you waited on, don't rush anything
:+)
Stay truth to yourself. Follow your heart not your gut. Educate yourself so you never have to depend of a man. Be wise and selective you have that right. It would show that you are mature and worth of respect. Good luck!
You are still a girl in woman's form. Keep your values that you have learned.
It's a hard time and I understand that. I was feeling pretty much the same at your age.
Try to relax about it. Talk to friends and family about what they might think a good carrier for you could be, in case you don't know even remotely what you want to do.
If you feel you want to move, do it but never burn any bridges
Eventually you will get a job and always have in mind that you need to save some money, even if its 5 buck a month. When I started doing this, and had some good money from my work, In 2 years i had the money to feel safe to open my own business.
And a tip. You will always feel lost at some points, that never goes away but you have to keep it together
How about do some real soul searching regarding goals? Turning 18 doesn't automatically make you a responsible adult. Look at it as kindegarten for women. You have the opportunity of a whole lifetime before you. What do you want to accomplish in 10 years; 5 years; 3 years, one year? Write it down. Where do you want to go? Make a list. I would also suggest you read your list of goals and then consider doing volunteer work based on the category. For instance, if you want to be a doctor, go work as a volunteer with people at the hospital. If you want to be a policewoman, there are auxillaries for young people. If you want to work with children, volunteer to read to terminally sick kids. This way, no only do you give of yourself, you receive respect, learn new things, are exposed to different people and you ';network';. Networking is very important. You might meet someone who has a friend, of a friend, of a friend, who can help you achieve you goals. Lastly, go out and have good, safe FUN!!! Please don't get married or have babies or shack up with anywone. FUN!! Take some ballroom dancing lessons; learn to love yourself. When I turned 18, I went and got my hair cut short to move into adulthood and not look like a highschool kid. I went to art museums and took classes. I saved and bought a car. You can do anything you want to do!!! If you can't decide, see a counselor at a local college and they can test you on what you would be a good career for you. Godloveyou....you're gonna do just fine, honey!
here advise dont go with men who u treat u badly
I also just turned 18 and just got my first full time job and with responsibility comes fun, go to college get your general done and take classes in things that interest you that way you can hopefully find something you want to work in for your career, use your friends as a way to stay young
The way you feel is normal. It is a big transition from minor to adult. Keep in mind that life is a journey. You are not suppose to have all the answers right away. Life is about the experience of self discovery that happens over a life time. Try to do things you enjoy and work in a field you like. Learn as much as you can and experience everything. Don't trust everyone you meet and when you do feel you can trust someone it is okay to let them in. You won't escape pain, it is a part of life. As love is.
Do anything and everything you can. The world is your oyster. Travel abroad.
Get your education. If you don't feel like you can finish school at least get an associates. It will help you down the line when you're look for work and want to get paid.
Don't rush into having children. They're wonderful to have, but take this time for yourself.
Don't get in over neck with useless debt either. New clothes and a fine car will come with age.
Just be happy and true to yourself.
I really remember feeling that way and I still do at times, and I am 31.
Don't feel like you NEED a man to feel complete
Don't feel like you NEED to get married anytime soon.
Don't let others walk all over you, stand up for yourself.
Love yourself for who you are and don't criticize yourself all the time.
Smile as much as you can and walk with your chin up, looking the world in the face.
Attend a few classes at your local community college, take classes that interest you. Maybe you will find some direction you'd like to head towards.
I wish that someone would have told me those things when I turned 18.
Right now you are borderline. Take your time and enjoy yourself.
Get started on those college applications.

How do you deal with a stepdaughter age 18 who thinks she no longer needs your advice?
My stepdaughter is saying that she just don't think I have any right to correct her or take off the tv because I asked her what she did with the remote and she must be responsible enough to maintain the livingroom etc. Am I harrassing her?How do you deal with a stepdaughter age 18 who thinks she no longer needs your advice?
Nope.
Have a talk with her mom, the stepdee, %26amp; yourself all together. Establish rules %26amp; regulations for the household.
Write them down %26amp; have everyone sign it. You may want to add a few rewards for the stepdee should she show improvement.
Just a word of warning. Coming between a mother %26amp; daughter is fraught w/ danger %26amp; illogically high emotions.How do you deal with a stepdaughter age 18 who thinks she no longer needs your advice?
Yeah a little. 18 yr old kids are absolute morons. You re simply going to have to let her be her own guide for better or worse.
yes, make it clear what the house rules are. sounds like a hostile situation to me.

The lyrics are: what have you done to deserve all this? curse GOD and die. What advice for a man who had trust?
christian song sung by a man about 20 years ago. I believe it's ';in the midst of it all';. Don't know the artist or where to find it.The lyrics are: what have you done to deserve all this? curse GOD and die. What advice for a man who had trust?
Float like a butterfly and sting like bee!
I am pretty, there ain't no body prettier than me!
I am the greatest!
Allah Akbar!The lyrics are: what have you done to deserve all this? curse GOD and die. What advice for a man who had trust?
It sounds like it is about the life and the book of Job in the OT. That is the counsel that Job got from one of his so called friends. That is the best that I can do.
Sorry there mate.
as written job wife said these very words,he replied,must you act like a sinceless woman,
What advice is ther for man who did not trust...based on lyrics?

What advice would you give a girl for a color of a prom dress? any designs?
i am 5'6';, tan, tall ofcourse, 13, brown hair w/blonde and caramel highlights and i relly need some ideas!What advice would you give a girl for a color of a prom dress? any designs?
I totally agree with the gold idea from the above answer. Gold looks especially good on those who carry a tan. Good luck, be safe, and have fun!What advice would you give a girl for a color of a prom dress? any designs?
Try a bridal shop. For example, David's Bridal. They have really cute bridesmaid and prom dresses for pretty good prices, and they will alter it at the store so it fits you perfectly. You get ripped off at the mall. I paid $300 for my Junior year dress, and my sister only paid $150 and hers was gorgeous. Color wise, I love red (try ';apple'; in the link below, it will show all the dresses in that color).
Maybe like a light pinkish strapless dress.
But if you're 13, why are you going to prom?
prom ? im guessing an 8th grade dance?
well gold and pink is good
pink, brown, tan, white ,cocoa,anything will look right as long as you accsessorize properly
Gold is super hot this season. It will go great with your tan complexion and your highlights. Just don't over accessorize, a gold dress is a pretty strong statement on its own. Just wear tiny studs for earrings, great shoes/purse and you are set. Have fun!
your 13 and going to a prom?????oily skin

Are you agree? 10 points for the best advice. Thank you?
I learned from HR courses that most people over present themselves on their resume.
For example, my friend got fired because he always went to work late. However, he addresses on his resume---he has strong work ethics.Are you agree? 10 points for the best advice. Thank you?
Maybe this is why I'm not getting calls; I don't overstate.
I thinks it's a mistake. If you say you've done something you haven't, or have some ability you don't, then you're going to be in deep doo-doo when you're expected to be able to do it on the job.
It's not just about getting an interview, it's about getting and keeping the job.
But I guess I'm in the minority.Are you agree? 10 points for the best advice. Thank you?
Just be honest I do agree most people over due it a bit but with the job market out there it's pure survival the one with the ';best '; resume gets the job
I'm not sure inflate is the right word for everybody, maybe a better term would be to accentuate the good and downplay or not even mention the not so good. After all a resume is intended to get you an interview so it has to be concise and positive. Your HR courses are hopefully telling you to read between the lines a little and pick out things which are either to much information or blatantly overstated. As to your friend I hope he doesn't apply for a job with your company or you will have a tough time telling him why he was rejected.
true
I would say with question that most if not all inflate their resumes

Make-up concealer?can anyone give me some advice on make-up concealer have you used it? is it good?
i would like if someone gave me some information on makeup concealer? is it good? have you used it? would you recomend it?what did you use it for.....and did you see a diffrence? if you put it on a spot,would it dry it up or even make it worse?and any other information you can think of thank you.........Make-up concealer?can anyone give me some advice on make-up concealer have you used it? is it good?
concealer is a another way of making money.
if your going to use makeup use bareminerals.
NO LIE...that stuff works wonders.
and if you do use concealer .. use moisturizer first then put it on. less is more... and when i DID use it .. i put it under my eyes to make them stand out... but other than that....
BAREMINERALS. =) %26lt;--#1 ADVICE.Make-up concealer?can anyone give me some advice on make-up concealer have you used it? is it good?
Foundation or concealer make up is easy to apply.It reflects light away from the skin and enhances its colour so that skin looks more radiant and even toned.Also can give soft focus appearance so that lines,dark shadows and blemishes are less visible.If you have a sensitive skin,look for products that are hypo-allergenic and fragrance free.Hope ive not given you information you cant use.So indulge and keep looking gorgeous.
I love concealer. I use it under my eyes to cover up the darkness and it makes my face look so bright.
All of my make up is from the Body shop because they don't test on animals.
My advice to you is to go to the body shop, tell them what you want and they will give you a free make over, showing you how to apply each product.
It's not the cheapest make up you can get but it's not expensive either.
I started using maybellene dream matte mousse I have never had to wear concealer since then! They also have a mousse concealer, I havent used it but I bet its good
I like Disappear by Estee Lauder. It really does make every blemish disappear. Less is more essential. It doesn't seem to make any difference to my spots they still take a couple of days to clear up.

Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
He came home from his Dad's today with high temp and bad diorrhea, he just lies around not making much noise looking very pale. He is 2 and usually very very energetic.
I am giving Calpol for temp but wondered if there is anything I can give to settle his bowels? he is in so much pain when he needs to poop. poor little lamb :-(Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
poor guy, try pedialyte to keep him hydrated and then give him starchy foods like bread, potatos or pasta, plain. Bananas also help the potassium in them acts like fiber. Hope I helped, my little one is in daycare and if he doesn't come home once a year like that...Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
Phone NHS 24 for advice! Especially since he is so young. However give him calpol at regular intervals, diorylite is good for replacing lost body fluid in kids esp when they have vomiting and/or diarrhoea and make sure he takes plenty of fluids. Hope he gets better soon.
i would take himto the dcs to be sure or the hospital can't risk anything with children now keep a close eye on him loads of fluids
all the best
I think plenty of fluid, the flat coke idea is not bad and try a tummy massage, possibly a warm (hot) water bottle, also try NHS Direct. If goes on for too long then see a doctor quickly and don't take any nonsense. Doctors are just human mechanics everybody seems to think there Gods and my experience is they're not.
PS. The assumption by one of your answerers that the reason could be because Dad looked after him badly should be disregarded. That sounds like bad feminism.
dont leave him too long, diorrhea can soon run a child of 2 down, might be best you have the doc look at him.
keep given the calpol and make sure he drinks lots of water to help wash his system out don't give him any orange juice as this can make it worse .. some dry toast or mash will help alittle if he gets worse take him to the Dr or get him to do a home visit
keep him cool and ring a doctor hope hes better soon.xx
You posted this question 4 days ago. If he's still like this I really hope common sense has taken over and you've taken him tho the doc by now! When my children have diorrhea then I make sure they have plenty liquids and use the BRAT diet - Bananas,Rice,Apples,Toast. Introduce them one by one over a few days.Seems to help.Also - Yaccult or some other friendly-bacteria drink helps kick start them back into normal action. Flat lemonade also seems to help with an upset tummy.
Bless, the poor little thing. Your right to give him Calpol, also make sure he drinks plenty of water. Put him on the sofa with his quilt and favourite DVD, he'll be fine in no time. But if it hasn't cleared up in a few days take him to the doctor who can prescribe something. Good luck.
go to the emergency room for rehydration. If he's listless, that's a bad sign. I'm sure he's fine, so I don't mean to worry you. But better safe than sorry. On a side note, if you think his father didn't take care of him, you should try to get custody take away from him -- it's not fair that you have to deal with his bad parenting which got your baby sick.
Take him to the hospital, Diareah combined with a fever is means he has an infection, especially because he is lathargic its never a good sign keep him pumped with clear fluids like Pedialite and some toast it will provide absorbtion (supervise him so he doesnt choke) but if he isnt showing improvement in 24 hours please take him to the Dr. better to be safe than sorry with out lil angels. Best Wishes
Mint or peppermint will help. I like peppermint tea with sugar however that's not for a little boy's tastes. You could give him sugar free mints to suck on. That would settle his tummy.
Also, I would give him clear fluids until the bowels settle down. I recommend a dry soup mix made up (like Lipton's). That way he'll get the fluids he needs and it's full of salt so it'll help keep him from being dehydrated.
You can try the liquid form of imodiam(sp). I've given it to my 2 y/o once and it helped. Just cut the smallest dose in half and give him that.
He may have the rota virus, your best bet is to force feed him fluids,
when my son had this virus he was almost two years old, and I used a medicine dropper to force pedialyte into him. If he appears to be dehydrated take him to an ER right away here are some symptoms: thirst, irritability, restlessness, lethargy, sunken eyes, a dry mouth and tongue, dry skin, fewer trips to the bathroom to urinate, and (in infants) a dry diaper for several hours.
here is a website with some of the signs and symptoms of the rotavirus
http://www.webmd.com/hw/health_guide_ato鈥?/a>
and here is what the cdc has to say
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/revb/gast鈥?/a>
Call the local walk in center or take him along to get checked out..
Don't take chances with a 2 yr old they can't tell you whats wrong.
to make sure that he doesn't dehydrate try (in the uk) dioralyte, it replaces the body's essential minerals ect...and a bit of an old wives tale but honey and lemon drinks are good for everything, my mum always used it on me whether it was a sore throat or diaorrhea. and you could always try giving him some dry biscuits like digestives because they are high in fibre and will help to get something into him that hopefully won't come out as diaorrhea! but to be honest if you are really worried don't feel like you are overreacting if you call the doctor out!
plenty of water.
Doctors usually recommend not giving any medication and letting the bowels heal on their own. It takes about 24 to 48 hours for them to settle. In the mean time give your son plain food and make sure to keep him very hydrated. If you see that the fiber and diarrhea persist after this time frame I would suggest to call the doctor for further advice. I hope your soon gets better soon.
Calpol, fliuds, if he doesn't get any better, whisk him off to the quacks in the morning. I'm sure he will be fine. My son had something similar a while back. He was fine after some tlc and a fair amount of Calpol (I didn't give him over the stated dose tho!!)
Good luck :)
make sure he drinks plenty of fluids and if he seems to get any worse, call a doctor or take him to the ER straight away, especially if he develops a rash.
Calpol is good but more importantly make sure he gets lots and lots of fluid inside him,this will help bring down the temperature and stop him dehydrating because of the diorrhea,if it continues any more than 12 hrs get him to the doctors.
oh, how sad. Try giving him pepto or Milanta. Or you could give him a belly rub. That is what my dad used to do for me and I remember it worked quite well.
Give him plenty of fluids,try him with plain food as in non greasy as for the pain try rubbing his belly, if he's no better in the morning take him to your GP or ER.
Hope he's feeling better soon and good luck.
call the doctor, most have nurse lines if it is after hours, he may need to be seen. They will tell you what is safe for him to take or if he needs to see a doc.
Everyone has given you good advice, however trust your own instincts, if you are worried contact help
Sounds like the flu...but if he has a temperature for more than 24 hours or if it's over 101, take him to the emergency room...give him pedialyte for the bowel movements,you can find that at wal-mart in the baby care isle, this will also help with hydration, he needs to stay in bed and sleep, that will help rebuild his immune system..also a lil tlc from mommy might help his mood, and get rid of the sick blues..rent a couple of his favorite movies, and give him a spot on the couch so he doesn't feel left out....
Also if you are worried about his temperature, childerens motrin works well, and doesn't taste too horrid...
Stay away from sodas,gatorade right now, the excess sugar can make diarrhea worse.
If his stomach isn't hurting tomarrow, try some chicken soup and crackers...or some jello....
sorry to hear about your little boy, one of the most important things is to keep him hydrated, so give him plenty of fluids.
if your worried about him (as im sure you are hes only small)
ring NHS direct,(i put the number below) you'll speak to a receptionist they'll take your little boys symptoms, they will get passed to a nurse or doctor (ive rang them before there very helpful, and dont feel your wasting there time, your not. dont take any chances with him being so small
call them on 0845 4647
also check there website, you can check his symptoms with what it may be, best thing to do is ring them, im not a proffesional, and i doubt no one else is who's replied. so speak to one soon,and i hope your little boy is feeling better soon, take care.

You should call the pediatrician. Try feeding him some yogurt and bananas for the diarrea. Also the BRAT diet (banana, rice, applesauce, I can't remember the T)
Have you taken him to the doctor? When my son had that I gave him pedialite and the pedialite popsicles. There isn't really much you can do about him pooping. You could try giving him crackers....bananas...lots of water. Since he is only 2 I would talk to your doc before trying anything out like pepto bismol or anything like that just to be safe. I remember my son having this and he was in the hospital. He was sick for like 2 weeks. The poor little guy. I hope he gets better.
Take him to the doctor, but give him either coke, boiled water or ginger beer to keep him hydrated.
try letting a drop of coke go flat and give him that it worked on my 4year old plus its easier to get them to take than pepto or anything like that.
I am giving Calpol for temp but wondered if there is anything I can give to settle his bowels? he is in so much pain when he needs to poop. poor little lamb :-(Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
poor guy, try pedialyte to keep him hydrated and then give him starchy foods like bread, potatos or pasta, plain. Bananas also help the potassium in them acts like fiber. Hope I helped, my little one is in daycare and if he doesn't come home once a year like that...Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
Phone NHS 24 for advice! Especially since he is so young. However give him calpol at regular intervals, diorylite is good for replacing lost body fluid in kids esp when they have vomiting and/or diarrhoea and make sure he takes plenty of fluids. Hope he gets better soon.
i would take himto the dcs to be sure or the hospital can't risk anything with children now keep a close eye on him loads of fluids
all the best
I think plenty of fluid, the flat coke idea is not bad and try a tummy massage, possibly a warm (hot) water bottle, also try NHS Direct. If goes on for too long then see a doctor quickly and don't take any nonsense. Doctors are just human mechanics everybody seems to think there Gods and my experience is they're not.
PS. The assumption by one of your answerers that the reason could be because Dad looked after him badly should be disregarded. That sounds like bad feminism.
dont leave him too long, diorrhea can soon run a child of 2 down, might be best you have the doc look at him.
keep given the calpol and make sure he drinks lots of water to help wash his system out don't give him any orange juice as this can make it worse .. some dry toast or mash will help alittle if he gets worse take him to the Dr or get him to do a home visit
keep him cool and ring a doctor hope hes better soon.xx
You posted this question 4 days ago. If he's still like this I really hope common sense has taken over and you've taken him tho the doc by now! When my children have diorrhea then I make sure they have plenty liquids and use the BRAT diet - Bananas,Rice,Apples,Toast. Introduce them one by one over a few days.Seems to help.Also - Yaccult or some other friendly-bacteria drink helps kick start them back into normal action. Flat lemonade also seems to help with an upset tummy.
Bless, the poor little thing. Your right to give him Calpol, also make sure he drinks plenty of water. Put him on the sofa with his quilt and favourite DVD, he'll be fine in no time. But if it hasn't cleared up in a few days take him to the doctor who can prescribe something. Good luck.
go to the emergency room for rehydration. If he's listless, that's a bad sign. I'm sure he's fine, so I don't mean to worry you. But better safe than sorry. On a side note, if you think his father didn't take care of him, you should try to get custody take away from him -- it's not fair that you have to deal with his bad parenting which got your baby sick.
Take him to the hospital, Diareah combined with a fever is means he has an infection, especially because he is lathargic its never a good sign keep him pumped with clear fluids like Pedialite and some toast it will provide absorbtion (supervise him so he doesnt choke) but if he isnt showing improvement in 24 hours please take him to the Dr. better to be safe than sorry with out lil angels. Best Wishes

Do you have a good husband? Is he a great dad? What do you do to show him you appreciate him? Any advice?
Im not married, but engaged and we have been together for almost five years. He is a great dad. He works 10-12 hours a day, 6 days a week, so I can stay home with the baby. When he gets home he still makes time to play with our daughter. Everytime he walks in the door her face lights up with a smile and she's only 3 months old. It is too cute! I dont ask for much help when it comes to taking care of the baby, but he'll always help without asking. I thank him for everything, even if its simple like picking up something at the store on the way home from work. I cook for him, do the laundry. Do little things that need to be done like run up to the store. I let him have his time when he gets home from work, so he can unwind, play on the computer, play video games whatever he wants. I take care of our animals, let the dog out when needed. I just do simple things like that, but mostly the cooking cause he loves my cooking. I also tell him how much I love him all the time, and that as soon as I grad. from college that he can be a stay at home dad and i'll work, so he can go to school.Do you have a good husband? Is he a great dad? What do you do to show him you appreciate him? Any advice?
Well for me,I dont show him appreciation at all anymore. Only because, he does nothing for me or my son. Im experiencing bad postpartum depression right now. He would rather be out drinking and having a good old time.Im going to see the doctor tomarrow, and possibly ending our marraige.Its so bad that he will go days without seeing our son, because he would rather be out having fun, while Im at home all day with a very cranky baby(colic,reflux, and teething).So I feel I dont need to show him appreciation. He does nothing to support us, in any way. He avoids me when Im depressed, which is hard for him, but hes in this as much as I am. I need his support more than ever right now, and he will not give it, nor be a Father to his son. I only wish he would he a good husband and father.Do you have a good husband? Is he a great dad? What do you do to show him you appreciate him? Any advice?
I'm a believer of 'the little things'. I thank him every single time he gets up in the middle of the night to help with the baby's feedings. I leave small love letters in his wallet. I send him random I love you text messages from time to time. I tell him I appreciate his help etc.
You know, the little things...
he is wonderful with his daughter. but he is lazy and can't support us and wouldn't make a good husband as of right now.
Yup. My man manages a tree service, and spends most of his days in the air, risking his life to put food on our table.
He works looooooong hours- sun up to sun down, six days a week. He comes home exhausted an filthy.
As the old saying goes, ';The best way to a man's heart is through his stomach.'; I love to cook for him. He loves to eat my culinary masterpieces too, and always takes the leftovers to work the following day.
I compliment him often. Some nights he is too tired to interact with the baby much, but we co-sleep so it makes up for lost time.
He is a great dad, and he is going to give the boys a great future.
I have two 'baby daddies', so I gotta give props to my older son's dad too- he also works like a dog. He never fails to keep the lines of communication open. We have an amicable relationship, and we never struggle to compromise. He puts his kids first.
The two of them get along, too. They call themselves the husband in-laws.
Dads rule!
yes. yes. i cook delicious dinners. dont be pushy.
My husband is the best. we have 2 daughters and he would have loved a son but now that we are having another 2 girls (twins, 20 weeks) he has realised that he wont have a son, but he has accepted it and i appreciate that. I would love lots of babies but i dont think my vagina could handle any more lol.
I would say that cooking a good wholsome meal is the best thing to do for your man. Even if you have been at work all day, you will benefit from the good dinner to.
I cook him really nice dinners before he goes on business trips and he loves it!
Also I make sure to let him play video games every now and then because he works really hard...
I also make sure that the house is clean and that his laundry is done :)
I try to cook him nice meals (way to his heart is thru his stomach right?) I also thank him, even for the little things, like doing the dishes, changing her diaper, etc. I realize now that I am a SAHM how much the little compliments can make your day brighter, because so much can be taken for granted...I know I appreciate it when he tells me that dinner is good, or that I am a great mother, so I try to offer him as many compliments as I can too! I also tell him how great of a Dad he is, and how much our baby loves him. These are things he knows, but again, it is always nice to hear it! I also try not to hound him too much about time spent out of the house, you know when he goes to home depot for 2 hrs on a Saturday every now and again...it's ok..b/c I realize how nice it is to meander around the grocery store in peace when he stays home with the baby. Just let them know how much they mean to you and how much you appreciate it, don't assume they know.
my fiance is a great daddy. i cook him breakfast eery day and dinner every night.
I left him when i was 4.5 pregnant. I knew he wouldnt be a good dad since he ate all my craving food, and all the other food in the house. (I lost 35+ lbs) and he'd still eat it all. Never wanted to feel baby kicks. gift cards/money from family and friends, i never saw a penny of it. He hid the checkbooks from me. Never said the things husbands were suppose to say. Even as i stayed up til 2am cooking him lunch for next day @work when i got off work. Wanted to wait for baby to be born to recieve ';hand me downs'; just ';in case';. I left him last august. He says he ';loves me more then my own mother'; but has only seen his son twice since his birth 1-16-08 and denies paternity. wont support either one of us.. pig has another thing coming when divorce is final. But you have to assume something like this since his mother raised him alone letting her father teach him ';traditions'; that a wife is to stay home and cook and clean and do as the man says. My son will grow up with 4 uncles and a great grandpa teaching him boy things and what a man really is. So no, I dont have a great husband and he's not a dad at all.....oily skin

You could ask for traffic school, if it is permitted where you live, which will cost more but will remove the points and keep it from being reported to your insurance company.I got speeding after 8 years. the stastes the mph in area was 25 and I'm 47 mph. what the best advice you can?
You should try matching the numbers on the speed limit sign to the numbers on your Speedometer, and make the little orange needle meet up with those numbers....so in short
STOP SPEEDING!
pay your fines, hiring a lawyer will be a waste of your time. There's no sense in fighting a ticket you are obviously deserving of.
It's cheaper to just pay the fine. If you take it to court you have to pay court fees, lawyer fees (if you hire one), and if you don't win your case you still have to pay the fine.
you really won't get off, i mean 22 over the limit is pretty bad!
don't worry you probably will only get a point or two. no big deal and they'll expire if you don't do it again.
Almost twice the speed limit is indefensible.
You should hire a lawyer, but it won't change anything.
You will get both points and fines.
I'm glad you didn't run over anybody.

go to court, plead guilty, pay the fine, accept the consequences of your actions as far as your insurance and driving record goes. .
If you got a good income try to get a lawyer and have him get the ticket reduced.
Plea bargain for a lesser violation with the prosecutor.
You got caught. Simple. Man up and accept your punishment

Can you give me some advice... I want to be more self-confident?
I'm a shy person. I always worry about being ';presentable'; in public ... I'm not a vain person at all, it's just that I worry about small things at the wrong times. I get really nervous in big public areas when I'm being stared at for example. I don't have an anxiety attack or anything, I just feel uncomfortable and don't know how to react.Can you give me some advice... I want to be more self-confident?
Take many comfortable friends with you into public and work on it.
You suffer from something similar to what soldiers have. The get anxious in large crowds. (Bad things happen in big crowds)Can you give me some advice... I want to be more self-confident?
Do this simple thing - go to a bar with your friend and let yourself be approachable.
Guys will come up to you and talk, it will make you feel important and will give you confidence. So easy being a girl to feel wanted.
Hey dont panic, this happens to many of us and this is very very common and also believe that you are absolutely normal.
Now, how to become self confident or how to develop the same. The one and only answer that anyone could think of is believe in yourself. Belief in oneself and one's ability is the best way u can bring the best out of urself and once you bring it once, the next time you will be confident to do that again. thats how u develop the same. For example...you believe that you could walk and eventually you did, you believed that you can run and you did now u r confident of walking anytime and running anytime. Have u ever believed urself to run before u could walk, the answer is no. Life is just like that, mother nature has thought us many things and we have learnt many things without know that we have learnt the same. Thats the truth. So dont worry, and keep doing things or keep trying things that u feel comfortable and try it one by one, step by step just like u sit first, stand, walk, run and u come first in 1000 meter race.. A journey towards a mile will start from a single step. Let me take the pleasure of motivating u to get into the first step. Be cool and be happy. Good luck to u
you need to acept that you are what you are, life is short, you might hear that alot but it's true, so my advice is to get on with things, do what you want to do, go where you want to go, and say what you want to say. i know this easy to write, but i believe to be the truth.
however you approach this problem it won't be fixed overnight, but your the best person to help yourself.
i'm sorry if this isn't any help, but good luck.
I used to be really self-conscious and wanted to improve my confidence also. I thought about all the things I didnt like about myself and worked on them. It helps a lot if you focus on improving specific things.
For example, I wanted my teeth to be whiter...so I bought whitestrips and fixed that.
If you change things [for the better] that you know you will feel better about once they're different, it is less to worry about and maybe something to feel good about.
And when you keep working on things and improving, your confidence will grow because you know that you are eliminating the bad and replacing it with good!
About the staring thing..I HATE when anyone stares at me too. Like my friends or parents, strangers or teachers. This is especially a problem when I am in a public area also and I get really uncomfortable.
When little little kids stare at me, I make weird faces at them and they stop or if they keep staring I make mean faces.
When my friends/people I know/adult strangers stare at me, I either look them in the eye and smile in a knowing way or I try to completely ingore them.

My sister is looking to find a carreer do you guys have any advice?

usualy she likes to go out alot
she is planing to take iternational business
do you think it is a god career to study and work?
please give me as many advise as you can!
thanks alotMy sister is looking to find a carreer do you guys have any advice?
Yes and no, it really depends on her. International business is not just traveling around having a good time, there are many other factors that need to be considered; e.g. international accounting standards, international law, culture and language. It is hard to succeed straight from college into an international role, generally people need experience with in the company. But if she is motivate enough and has the drive I am sure she will go OK.

Selling products on eBay is not easy without the right products, Tools, and resources required to get the job done and actually make money. Legitimate product sourcing tools are in high demand, and only a handful of web savvy marketers get their hands on the REAL DEAL!
';You must buy wholesale products DIRECTLY from the wholesale supplier. Anyone who gets in between you and the actual wholesale supplier for any reason is costing you money. These are called ';Middlemen';, even if they claim not to be. Middlemen want you to think they are Wholesalers. They are NOT. They charge unsuspecting retailers monthly fees and even increase the true wholesale price. All of this means you pay too much for wholesale products, and your competition will always beat you.';I'm thinking about starting an ebay bussiness. What advice can you give me?
If you plan on selling tangible products, like electronics etc on Ebay, you need to make sure you get only high quality wholesalers and at the best possible price, remember your profit is really made when you buy NOT when you sell so make sure that you get the best price.

What relationship advice that you know now do you wish you had when you were younger?
Title basically says it all...but what do you wish you would have known around the age 18-25 range about relationships and dating that you now know? Guys and girls feel free to answer! :PWhat relationship advice that you know now do you wish you had when you were younger?
to tell the HONEST TO GOD truth no matter what it could mean...
kinda reason for problems with my boyfriend and i also...
thanks for ur post also...What relationship advice that you know now do you wish you had when you were younger?
don't ever get involved with someone who is married. once you do it the first time, it never ends.
love is not enough to make marriage work....there should be commitment, respect, financial responsibility, honesty, sacrifice to make it a success....
Never have sex before you get the ring.
Don't ignore your friends for your sweetheart
dont stay in an abusive relationship no matter how much you love the person.
never co-sign for anyone!
Girls simply don't want to be treated like a queen all the time. Sure, every once in awhile, but all the time really freaks them out. They want to chase a little. They want a challenge. If you always give them what they want, then they think they can get someone better.
I am still surprised to this day how many times I spent months trying to charm a girl and having it end with nothing vs. treating them kind of like an a**hole and having it pay off time and time again.
After High School ....relationships get harder to come by....Girls are similar to there mothers. The apple does not fall too far from the tree.....The fast girls burn out early in life...outer beauty b4 inner beauty..., shy girls ..... blossom later in life and develop inner beauty b4 outer beauty...You can't change any one....what you see is what you get.....Those that pray together , stay together...... similar likes , dislikes , habits....help.....
dont change for someone, cuz then they wont love you for you
The best match for you is your best friend because she is the one who knows the most about you and hopefully you reciprocate that. Also because when you have those crazy fights and you dont necessarily like her, you can still love her for the fact that she is your best friend if that makes any sense.

Could you give me some advice on this situation?
Ok, let me explain the situation. I'm trying to help this teen I know deal with a pretty tough situation. He lives with his mom because his dad abandoned them when he was little. He goes to a public high school in a middle to upper class area. There he often gets bullied by the popular kids from well to do families, because he's poor and can't afford a car or the brand name clothes that they wear. His mom is getting exasperated by the fact that NONE the school officials are doing anything about it. He has few friends and is pessimistic much of the time. The parents of the kids who pick on him seem to almost condone their behaivor, I think they look down on students from poor families and are teaching their kids to think the same way. His attendence and grades have understandably been suffering and I hope he doesn't drop out. I try to tell him to hang in there and it helps him some, but the problem is still getting worse and I hope I can help him and his mom resolve this situation.Could you give me some advice on this situation?
Schedule a meeting with the principal and attend it along with his mother. Make sure the situation is covered in detail, and take specific notes of what the principal agrees to do. Tell him or her that you are giving the school a fixed amount of time (say 2 weeks) to deal with the situation, and then you are going to the superintendent.
If that does not work, go to the media. Many stories recently about just this sort of problem, and it ALWAYS gets the problem dealt with.Could you give me some advice on this situation?
gentleman,
Having dealt with much of the same crap while I was coming up, I can certainly understand how the kid can be down. Kids are the cruelest to their peers...I suppose it's always been that way, and it always will be.
Now, please understand that I'm not condoning the bullies' behavior, but neither should what they do be an excuse to let grades slip. It's time to put things into perspective...nothing those empty rich kids say or do should have any impact on this kid, as long as the attention doesn't get physical. At that point, the choices are to fight back or to go to the police.
The razzing is having a negative impact only because this kid is giving value to what these kids are saying. To h e ll with them. No one cares about (or remembers) what happened during school after it's all over with anyways. Do to well is the very best revenge.
i dont know how to help with out knowing the kid. what he really needs is a good friend his age to hang out with reguardless of what he wears/ has. tell him to get invloved in something other than school. he sounds like a good kid, it should be too hard to make a friend
This is very common, and it often happens in schools these days, including the school's response to the matter. If no one will help you, you may consider bringing the issue to the school board. If it continues to get worse, you may consider trying to get him into another school or even homeschooling.
Good luck!
The best that I can suggest is A. making yourselves a real pest to the school officals (and the appropriate parents while you are at it), bugging them every single day with a long list of complaints of every single thing that these other kids have done with all relevent details. But that might not give you the results that you want, since most of the time, school officals are limited to acting only on the things that they actually see and, like you said, the parents are dismissive of the matter or B. moving to another school district. I'm assuming that private school is out of the question and that his mother won't want to move just to switch schools, but many public schools (in PA anyway, I don't know where you are or if that same rules apply) will let you switch to another school as long as they are not expected to provide the transportation. Perhaps there is another school in the area that doesn't have quite so many rich snobby brats. You are certainly doing that right thing though, telling him to just hang in there, that it is a temporary situation, and that the opinions of those little jerks don't matter anyway. But it is quite understandable that he is still feeling a bit depressed about the situation, given that he is a teenager and cannot see the big picture as well as you can. Good Luck!
The best thing is a change of school and some good old fashioned councilling. Unfortunetly kids can be cruel and they often learn this habit from their parents. A change of school, with new kids and a better self attitude is really what he needs.
:)
talk 2 the mayor or government and just tell him 2 step up 2 the kids not 2 be (bad) but he should just step up 2 them and tell them how he feels what is going on tell him 2 talk 2 teachers principle and consluer tell the teachers whats going on like miss/mr im having a problem in school and i am low on grades and attendance and dont wanna fail is there a way that i can improve with it and is there a way i can handle it with out dropping out or (fight them)
tell him 2 talk 2 a close teacher what he and his mother has been going on i grew up not knowing my parents and got threw it
Kids can be really mean, have you tried to get his mom to buy him clothes at a thrift store or goodwill in the real upclass areas. Usually you can find nice name brand clothing really cheap. Maybe that will help him to not get picked on as much. If that doesn't work, is there a way he can get transferred to a different school in a different area? That might work. It is hard enough being a teen, even worse when you get picked on for things out of your control. Good luck and tell him that he can make it through high school, that college is better. Maybe he could get a part time job to save for a cheap car too.
MAYBE HE NEEDS TO MOVE FROM THAT ENVIRONMENT WHERE HE IS BEING BELITTLE AND IGNORED AS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS WORTH. HE WOULD NEVER FEEL AS THOUGH HE BELONGS IF THEY CONTINUE TO TREAT HIM LIKE THAT NO MATTER IF HE STAYS.
UPCLASS IS ANOTHER WAY OF SAYING THAT THOSE PERSONS WE BELIEVE THAT WE ARE BETTER AND BETTER OFF THAN OTHERS, THINK ABOUT THAT!
I think that taking it to the school board or to higher officials is only going to make things worse on the teen. Obviously no one is willing to do anything to help him. The best thing in a situation like this is to let this be a life lesson for the kid. If nothing else he is learning that life is not fair and many people in the world are judgmental and mean. That doesn't make things easier for him now, but, later he will be able to look back and see that this is what made his character stronger. Get this kid in church if he is not already, get him involved in some kind of extra activities outside of school activities, something to give him the extra boost in self esteem that he needs. Show him that the people in his life who love him are still there for him regardless. Get him into counseling. But above all, keep reminding him that high school will soon be over and once he is out in the world making something of himself, no one will remember or care what high school was like. Good luck!
I don't know what grade he is in but you could tell him that high school goes by fast and just to stick in there. I'm in high school right now and I know what that can be like. I have been to college before though and once your out in the real world people don't really do stupid teenager stuff, like making fun of someone for that kind of stuff. He could transfer to another school, I know that at my school they have like a secondary high school, but you still get a high school degree. He could beat them up too, but that might actually make it worse. I would just say to stick in there and when he gets out it will be much better. Hope that this helps.
they have left you no choice contact the police they will take it very serious
I would go to the board of education and if that doesn't do it then i would go to the police. 'Cause if this goes on no telling what might happen. I would be afraid that he might harm himself. Keep encouraging him and if things gets worst he might have to move to another school.
You are a good person for helping this young man. I helped the underdogs when I was in high school because I had some pull and push and people respected me, not adorned me with bull. Maybe if you could employ a student that others like to do some of these tactics.
These were always done very publicly, with the crowds attention. I'll use the name Christine, A real person that I use to do this for.
I would ask a question: ';Christine, I didn't understand what the teacher was talking about.';
She would give me an answer.
My reply would be: Always end with 'Thanks' ';I would have never thought of that.'; ';I'm so stupid for not seeing that. Thanks for pointing that out.'; And then she would show me how she did it and I would genuinely be interested in how she explained it, but I made sure I would smile for everyone to see.
Another one is to show interest in what they're interested in. Always public.
';Christine, you like that new group *blablabla* too?'; ';Do you have the lyric to the *bla* song?'; ';Here's a great picture I found of them in a magazine. You can have it.';
It builds confidence and helps them to help themselves.
Maybe he can look into getting enrolled in a Charter School. He will still be able to graduate with a H.S. diploma but will on ly have to take the classes that he absolutely needs and won't have to spend as much time there per day. or Get on a work program at the same school or switch school or drop out and get GED but that is last thing I would recommend.
Schedule a meeting with the principal and attend it along with his mother. Make sure the situation is covered in detail, and take specific notes of what the principal agrees to do. Tell him or her that you are giving the school a fixed amount of time (say 2 weeks) to deal with the situation, and then you are going to the superintendent.
If that does not work, go to the media. Many stories recently about just this sort of problem, and it ALWAYS gets the problem dealt with.Could you give me some advice on this situation?
gentleman,
Having dealt with much of the same crap while I was coming up, I can certainly understand how the kid can be down. Kids are the cruelest to their peers...I suppose it's always been that way, and it always will be.
Now, please understand that I'm not condoning the bullies' behavior, but neither should what they do be an excuse to let grades slip. It's time to put things into perspective...nothing those empty rich kids say or do should have any impact on this kid, as long as the attention doesn't get physical. At that point, the choices are to fight back or to go to the police.
The razzing is having a negative impact only because this kid is giving value to what these kids are saying. To h e ll with them. No one cares about (or remembers) what happened during school after it's all over with anyways. Do to well is the very best revenge.
i dont know how to help with out knowing the kid. what he really needs is a good friend his age to hang out with reguardless of what he wears/ has. tell him to get invloved in something other than school. he sounds like a good kid, it should be too hard to make a friend
This is very common, and it often happens in schools these days, including the school's response to the matter. If no one will help you, you may consider bringing the issue to the school board. If it continues to get worse, you may consider trying to get him into another school or even homeschooling.
Good luck!
The best that I can suggest is A. making yourselves a real pest to the school officals (and the appropriate parents while you are at it), bugging them every single day with a long list of complaints of every single thing that these other kids have done with all relevent details. But that might not give you the results that you want, since most of the time, school officals are limited to acting only on the things that they actually see and, like you said, the parents are dismissive of the matter or B. moving to another school district. I'm assuming that private school is out of the question and that his mother won't want to move just to switch schools, but many public schools (in PA anyway, I don't know where you are or if that same rules apply) will let you switch to another school as long as they are not expected to provide the transportation. Perhaps there is another school in the area that doesn't have quite so many rich snobby brats. You are certainly doing that right thing though, telling him to just hang in there, that it is a temporary situation, and that the opinions of those little jerks don't matter anyway. But it is quite understandable that he is still feeling a bit depressed about the situation, given that he is a teenager and cannot see the big picture as well as you can. Good Luck!
The best thing is a change of school and some good old fashioned councilling. Unfortunetly kids can be cruel and they often learn this habit from their parents. A change of school, with new kids and a better self attitude is really what he needs.
:)
talk 2 the mayor or government and just tell him 2 step up 2 the kids not 2 be (bad) but he should just step up 2 them and tell them how he feels what is going on tell him 2 talk 2 teachers principle and consluer tell the teachers whats going on like miss/mr im having a problem in school and i am low on grades and attendance and dont wanna fail is there a way that i can improve with it and is there a way i can handle it with out dropping out or (fight them)
tell him 2 talk 2 a close teacher what he and his mother has been going on i grew up not knowing my parents and got threw it
Kids can be really mean, have you tried to get his mom to buy him clothes at a thrift store or goodwill in the real upclass areas. Usually you can find nice name brand clothing really cheap. Maybe that will help him to not get picked on as much. If that doesn't work, is there a way he can get transferred to a different school in a different area? That might work. It is hard enough being a teen, even worse when you get picked on for things out of your control. Good luck and tell him that he can make it through high school, that college is better. Maybe he could get a part time job to save for a cheap car too.
MAYBE HE NEEDS TO MOVE FROM THAT ENVIRONMENT WHERE HE IS BEING BELITTLE AND IGNORED AS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS WORTH. HE WOULD NEVER FEEL AS THOUGH HE BELONGS IF THEY CONTINUE TO TREAT HIM LIKE THAT NO MATTER IF HE STAYS.

Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
He came home from his Dad's today with high temp and bad diorrhea, he just lies around not making much noise looking very pale. He is 2 and usually very very energetic.
I am giving Calpol for temp but wondered if there is anything I can give to settle his bowels? he is in so much pain when he needs to poop. poor little lamb :-(Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
poor guy, try pedialyte to keep him hydrated and then give him starchy foods like bread, potatos or pasta, plain. Bananas also help the potassium in them acts like fiber. Hope I helped, my little one is in daycare and if he doesn't come home once a year like that...Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?
Phone NHS 24 for advice! Especially since he is so young. However give him calpol at regular intervals, diorylite is good for replacing lost body fluid in kids esp when they have vomiting and/or diarrhoea and make sure he takes plenty of fluids. Hope he gets better soon.
i would take himto the dcs to be sure or the hospital can't risk anything with children now keep a close eye on him loads of fluids
all the best
I think plenty of fluid, the flat coke idea is not bad and try a tummy massage, possibly a warm (hot) water bottle, also try NHS Direct. If goes on for too long then see a doctor quickly and don't take any nonsense. Doctors are just human mechanics everybody seems to think there Gods and my experience is they're not.
PS. The assumption by one of your answerers that the reason could be because Dad looked after him badly should be disregarded. That sounds like bad feminism.
dont leave him too long, diorrhea can soon run a child of 2 down, might be best you have the doc look at him.
keep given the calpol and make sure he drinks lots of water to help wash his system out don't give him any orange juice as this can make it worse .. some dry toast or mash will help alittle if he gets worse take him to the Dr or get him to do a home visit
keep him cool and ring a doctor hope hes better soon.xx
You posted this question 4 days ago. If he's still like this I really hope common sense has taken over and you've taken him tho the doc by now! When my children have diorrhea then I make sure they have plenty liquids and use the BRAT diet - Bananas,Rice,Apples,Toast. Introduce them one by one over a few days.Seems to help.Also - Yaccult or some other friendly-bacteria drink helps kick start them back into normal action. Flat lemonade also seems to help with an upset tummy.
Bless, the poor little thing. Your right to give him Calpol, also make sure he drinks plenty of water. Put him on the sofa with his quilt and favourite DVD, he'll be fine in no time. But if it hasn't cleared up in a few days take him to the doctor who can prescribe something. Good luck.
go to the emergency room for rehydration. If he's listless, that's a bad sign. I'm sure he's fine, so I don't mean to worry you. But better safe than sorry. On a side note, if you think his father didn't take care of him, you should try to get custody take away from him -- it's not fair that you have to deal with his bad parenting which got your baby sick.
Take him to the hospital, Diareah combined with a fever is means he has an infection, especially because he is lathargic its never a good sign keep him pumped with clear fluids like Pedialite and some toast it will provide absorbtion (supervise him so he doesnt choke) but if he isnt showing improvement in 24 hours please take him to the Dr. better to be safe than sorry with out lil angels. Best Wishes
Mint or peppermint will help. I like peppermint tea with sugar however that's not for a little boy's tastes. You could give him sugar free mints to suck on. That would settle his tummy.
Also, I would give him clear fluids until the bowels settle down. I recommend a dry soup mix made up (like Lipton's). That way he'll get the fluids he needs and it's full of salt so it'll help keep him from being dehydrated.
You can try the liquid form of imodiam(sp). I've given it to my 2 y/o once and it helped. Just cut the smallest dose in half and give him that.
He may have the rota virus, your best bet is to force feed him fluids,
when my son had this virus he was almost two years old, and I used a medicine dropper to force pedialyte into him. If he appears to be dehydrated take him to an ER right away here are some symptoms: thirst, irritability, restlessness, lethargy, sunken eyes, a dry mouth and tongue, dry skin, fewer trips to the bathroom to urinate, and (in infants) a dry diaper for several hours.
here is a website with some of the signs and symptoms of the rotavirus
http://www.webmd.com/hw/health_guide_ato鈥?/a>
and here is what the cdc has to say
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/revb/gast鈥?/a>
Call the local walk in center or take him along to get checked out..
Don't take chances with a 2 yr old they can't tell you whats wrong.
to make sure that he doesn't dehydrate try (in the uk) dioralyte, it replaces the body's essential minerals ect...and a bit of an old wives tale but honey and lemon drinks are good for everything, my mum always used it on me whether it was a sore throat or diaorrhea. and you could always try giving him some dry biscuits like digestives because they are high in fibre and will help to get something into him that hopefully won't come out as diaorrhea! but to be honest if you are really worried don't feel like you are overreacting if you call the doctor out!
plenty of water.
Doctors usually recommend not giving any medication and letting the bowels heal on their own. It takes about 24 to 48 hours for them to settle. In the mean time give your son plain food and make sure to keep him very hydrated. If you see that the fiber and diarrhea persist after this time frame I would suggest to call the doctor for further advice. I hope your soon gets better soon.
Calpol, fliuds, if he doesn't get any better, whisk him off to the quacks in the morning. I'm sure he will be fine. My son had something similar a while back. He was fine after some tlc and a fair amount of Calpol (I didn't give him over the stated dose tho!!)
Good luck :)
make sure he drinks plenty of fluids and if he seems to get any worse, call a doctor or take him to the ER straight away, especially if he develops a rash.
Calpol is good but more importantly make sure he gets lots and lots of fluid inside him,this will help bring down the temperature and stop him dehydrating because of the diorrhea,if it continues any more than 12 hrs get him to the doctors.
oh, how sad. Try giving him pepto or Milanta. Or you could give him a belly rub. That is what my dad used to do for me and I remember it worked quite well.
Give him plenty of fluids,try him with plain food as in non greasy as for the pain try rubbing his belly, if he's no better in the morning take him to your GP or ER.
Hope he's feeling better soon and good luck.
call the doctor, most have nurse lines if it is after hours, he may need to be seen. They will tell you what is safe for him to take or if he needs to see a doc.
Everyone has given you good advice, however trust your own instincts, if you are worried contact help
Sounds like the flu...but if he has a temperature for more than 24 hours or if it's over 101, take him to the emergency room...give him pedialyte for the bowel movements,you can find that at wal-mart in the baby care isle, this will also help with hydration, he needs to stay in bed and sleep, that will help rebuild his immune system..also a lil tlc from mommy might help his mood, and get rid of the sick blues..rent a couple of his favorite movies, and give him a spot on the couch so he doesn't feel left out....
Also if you are worried about his temperature, childerens motrin works well, and doesn't taste too horrid...
Stay away from sodas,gatorade right now, the excess sugar can make diarrhea worse.
If his stomach isn't hurting tomarrow, try some chicken soup and crackers...or some jello....
sorry to hear about your little boy, one of the most important things is to keep him hydrated, so give him plenty of fluids.
if your worried about him (as im sure you are hes only small)
ring NHS direct,(i put the number below) you'll speak to a receptionist they'll take your little boys symptoms, they will get passed to a nurse or doctor (ive rang them before there very helpful, and dont feel your wasting there time, your not. dont take any chances with him being so small
call them on 0845 4647
also check there website, you can check his symptoms with what it may be, best thing to do is ring them, im not a proffesional, and i doubt no one else is who's replied. so speak to one soon,and i hope your little boy is feeling better soon, take care.
http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/
You should call the pediatrician. Try feeding him some yogurt and bananas for the diarrea. Also the BRAT diet (banana, rice, applesauce, I can't remember the T)
Have you taken him to the doctor? When my son had that I gave him pedialite and the pedialite popsicles. There isn't really much you can do about him pooping. You could try giving him crackers....bananas...lots of water. Since he is only 2 I would talk to your doc before trying anything out like pepto bismol or anything like that just to be safe. I remember my son having this and he was in the hospital. He was sick for like 2 weeks. The poor little guy. I hope he gets better.
Take him to the doctor, but give him either coke, boiled water or ginger beer to keep him hydrated.
try letting a drop of coke go flat and give him that it worked on my 4year old plus its easier to get them to take than pepto or anything like that.
I am giving Calpol for temp but wondered if there is anything I can give to settle his bowels? he is in so much pain when he needs to poop. poor little lamb :-(Can you give me some advice about my sick toddler?

Sounds like the flu...but if he has a temperature for more than 24 hours or if it's over 101, take him to the emergency room...give him pedialyte for the bowel movements,you can find that at wal-mart in the baby care isle, this will also help with hydration, he needs to stay in bed and sleep, that will help rebuild his immune system..also a lil tlc from mommy might help his mood, and get rid of the sick blues..rent a couple of his favorite movies, and give him a spot on the couch so he doesn't feel left out....
Also if you are worried about his temperature, childerens motrin works well, and doesn't taste too horrid...
Stay away from sodas,gatorade right now, the excess sugar can make diarrhea worse.
If his stomach isn't hurting tomarrow, try some chicken soup and crackers...or some jello....
sorry to hear about your little boy, one of the most important things is to keep him hydrated, so give him plenty of fluids.
if your worried about him (as im sure you are hes only small)
ring NHS direct,(i put the number below) you'll speak to a receptionist they'll take your little boys symptoms, they will get passed to a nurse or doctor (ive rang them before there very helpful, and dont feel your wasting there time, your not. dont take any chances with him being so small
call them on 0845 4647
also check there website, you can check his symptoms with what it may be, best thing to do is ring them, im not a proffesional, and i doubt no one else is who's replied. so speak to one soon,and i hope your little boy is feeling better soon, take care.

You should call the pediatrician. Try feeding him some yogurt and bananas for the diarrea. Also the BRAT diet (banana, rice, applesauce, I can't remember the T)
Have you taken him to the doctor? When my son had that I gave him pedialite and the pedialite popsicles. There isn't really much you can do about him pooping. You could try giving him crackers....bananas...lots of water. Since he is only 2 I would talk to your doc before trying anything out like pepto bismol or anything like that just to be safe. I remember my son having this and he was in the hospital. He was sick for like 2 weeks. The poor little guy. I hope he gets better.
Take him to the doctor, but give him either coke, boiled water or ginger beer to keep him hydrated.
try letting a drop of coke go flat and give him that it worked on my 4year old plus its easier to get them to take than pepto or anything like that.

Do you have a good husband? Is he a great dad? What do you do to show him you appreciate him? Any advice?
Im not married, but engaged and we have been together for almost five years. He is a great dad. He works 10-12 hours a day, 6 days a week, so I can stay home with the baby. When he gets home he still makes time to play with our daughter. Everytime he walks in the door her face lights up with a smile and she's only 3 months old. It is too cute! I dont ask for much help when it comes to taking care of the baby, but he'll always help without asking. I thank him for everything, even if its simple like picking up something at the store on the way home from work. I cook for him, do the laundry. Do little things that need to be done like run up to the store. I let him have his time when he gets home from work, so he can unwind, play on the computer, play video games whatever he wants. I take care of our animals, let the dog out when needed. I just do simple things like that, but mostly the cooking cause he loves my cooking. I also tell him how much I love him all the time, and that as soon as I grad. from college that he can be a stay at home dad and i'll work, so he can go to school.Do you have a good husband? Is he a great dad? What do you do to show him you appreciate him? Any advice?
Well for me,I dont show him appreciation at all anymore. Only because, he does nothing for me or my son. Im experiencing bad postpartum depression right now. He would rather be out drinking and having a good old time.Im going to see the doctor tomarrow, and possibly ending our marraige.Its so bad that he will go days without seeing our son, because he would rather be out having fun, while Im at home all day with a very cranky baby(colic,reflux, and teething).So I feel I dont need to show him appreciation. He does nothing to support us, in any way. He avoids me when Im depressed, which is hard for him, but hes in this as much as I am. I need his support more than ever right now, and he will not give it, nor be a Father to his son. I only wish he would he a good husband and father.Do you have a good husband? Is he a great dad? What do you do to show him you appreciate him? Any advice?
I'm a believer of 'the little things'. I thank him every single time he gets up in the middle of the night to help with the baby's feedings. I leave small love letters in his wallet. I send him random I love you text messages from time to time. I tell him I appreciate his help etc.
You know, the little things...
he is wonderful with his daughter. but he is lazy and can't support us and wouldn't make a good husband as of right now.
Yup. My man manages a tree service, and spends most of his days in the air, risking his life to put food on our table.
He works looooooong hours- sun up to sun down, six days a week. He comes home exhausted an filthy.
As the old saying goes, ';The best way to a man's heart is through his stomach.'; I love to cook for him. He loves to eat my culinary masterpieces too, and always takes the leftovers to work the following day.
I compliment him often. Some nights he is too tired to interact with the baby much, but we co-sleep so it makes up for lost time.
He is a great dad, and he is going to give the boys a great future.
I have two 'baby daddies', so I gotta give props to my older son's dad too- he also works like a dog. He never fails to keep the lines of communication open. We have an amicable relationship, and we never struggle to compromise. He puts his kids first.
The two of them get along, too. They call themselves the husband in-laws.
Dads rule!
yes. yes. i cook delicious dinners. dont be pushy.
My husband is the best. we have 2 daughters and he would have loved a son but now that we are having another 2 girls (twins, 20 weeks) he has realised that he wont have a son, but he has accepted it and i appreciate that. I would love lots of babies but i dont think my vagina could handle any more lol.
I would say that cooking a good wholsome meal is the best thing to do for your man. Even if you have been at work all day, you will benefit from the good dinner to.
I cook him really nice dinners before he goes on business trips and he loves it!
Also I make sure to let him play video games every now and then because he works really hard...
I also make sure that the house is clean and that his laundry is done :)
I try to cook him nice meals (way to his heart is thru his stomach right?) I also thank him, even for the little things, like doing the dishes, changing her diaper, etc. I realize now that I am a SAHM how much the little compliments can make your day brighter, because so much can be taken for granted...I know I appreciate it when he tells me that dinner is good, or that I am a great mother, so I try to offer him as many compliments as I can too! I also tell him how great of a Dad he is, and how much our baby loves him. These are things he knows, but again, it is always nice to hear it! I also try not to hound him too much about time spent out of the house, you know when he goes to home depot for 2 hrs on a Saturday every now and again...it's ok..b/c I realize how nice it is to meander around the grocery store in peace when he stays home with the baby. Just let them know how much they mean to you and how much you appreciate it, don't assume they know.
my fiance is a great daddy. i cook him breakfast eery day and dinner every night.
I left him when i was 4.5 pregnant. I knew he wouldnt be a good dad since he ate all my craving food, and all the other food in the house. (I lost 35+ lbs) and he'd still eat it all. Never wanted to feel baby kicks. gift cards/money from family and friends, i never saw a penny of it. He hid the checkbooks from me. Never said the things husbands were suppose to say. Even as i stayed up til 2am cooking him lunch for next day @work when i got off work. Wanted to wait for baby to be born to recieve ';hand me downs'; just ';in case';. I left him last august. He says he ';loves me more then my own mother'; but has only seen his son twice since his birth 1-16-08 and denies paternity. wont support either one of us.. pig has another thing coming when divorce is final. But you have to assume something like this since his mother raised him alone letting her father teach him ';traditions'; that a wife is to stay home and cook and clean and do as the man says. My son will grow up with 4 uncles and a great grandpa teaching him boy things and what a man really is. So no, I dont have a great husband and he's not a dad at all.....

I got speeding after 8 years. the stastes the mph in area was 25 and I'm 47 mph. what the best advice you can?
give it to me. I dont want to have points and fines. Do i have to hire a lawyer or try to appear in court by my self but want is the best way to defense myself?I got speeding after 8 years. the stastes the mph in area was 25 and I'm 47 mph. what the best advice you can?
You will get points and you will get a fine. You were speeding; there is no defense.
You could ask for traffic school, if it is permitted where you live, which will cost more but will remove the points and keep it from being reported to your insurance company.I got speeding after 8 years. the stastes the mph in area was 25 and I'm 47 mph. what the best advice you can?
You should try matching the numbers on the speed limit sign to the numbers on your Speedometer, and make the little orange needle meet up with those numbers....so in short
STOP SPEEDING!
pay your fines, hiring a lawyer will be a waste of your time. There's no sense in fighting a ticket you are obviously deserving of.
It's cheaper to just pay the fine. If you take it to court you have to pay court fees, lawyer fees (if you hire one), and if you don't win your case you still have to pay the fine.
you really won't get off, i mean 22 over the limit is pretty bad!
don't worry you probably will only get a point or two. no big deal and they'll expire if you don't do it again.
Almost twice the speed limit is indefensible.
You should hire a lawyer, but it won't change anything.
You will get both points and fines.
I'm glad you didn't run over anybody.
- Stuart
go to court, plead guilty, pay the fine, accept the consequences of your actions as far as your insurance and driving record goes. .
If you got a good income try to get a lawyer and have him get the ticket reduced.
Plea bargain for a lesser violation with the prosecutor.
You got caught. Simple. Man up and accept your punishment

Can you give me some advice... I want to be more self-confident?
I'm a shy person. I always worry about being ';presentable'; in public ... I'm not a vain person at all, it's just that I worry about small things at the wrong times. I get really nervous in big public areas when I'm being stared at for example. I don't have an anxiety attack or anything, I just feel uncomfortable and don't know how to react.Can you give me some advice... I want to be more self-confident?
Take many comfortable friends with you into public and work on it.
You suffer from something similar to what soldiers have. The get anxious in large crowds. (Bad things happen in big crowds)Can you give me some advice... I want to be more self-confident?
Do this simple thing - go to a bar with your friend and let yourself be approachable.
Guys will come up to you and talk, it will make you feel important and will give you confidence. So easy being a girl to feel wanted.
Hey dont panic, this happens to many of us and this is very very common and also believe that you are absolutely normal.
Now, how to become self confident or how to develop the same. The one and only answer that anyone could think of is believe in yourself. Belief in oneself and one's ability is the best way u can bring the best out of urself and once you bring it once, the next time you will be confident to do that again. thats how u develop the same. For example...you believe that you could walk and eventually you did, you believed that you can run and you did now u r confident of walking anytime and running anytime. Have u ever believed urself to run before u could walk, the answer is no. Life is just like that, mother nature has thought us many things and we have learnt many things without know that we have learnt the same. Thats the truth. So dont worry, and keep doing things or keep trying things that u feel comfortable and try it one by one, step by step just like u sit first, stand, walk, run and u come first in 1000 meter race.. A journey towards a mile will start from a single step. Let me take the pleasure of motivating u to get into the first step. Be cool and be happy. Good luck to u
you need to acept that you are what you are, life is short, you might hear that alot but it's true, so my advice is to get on with things, do what you want to do, go where you want to go, and say what you want to say. i know this easy to write, but i believe to be the truth.
however you approach this problem it won't be fixed overnight, but your the best person to help yourself.
i'm sorry if this isn't any help, but good luck.
I used to be really self-conscious and wanted to improve my confidence also. I thought about all the things I didnt like about myself and worked on them. It helps a lot if you focus on improving specific things.
For example, I wanted my teeth to be whiter...so I bought whitestrips and fixed that.
If you change things [for the better] that you know you will feel better about once they're different, it is less to worry about and maybe something to feel good about.
And when you keep working on things and improving, your confidence will grow because you know that you are eliminating the bad and replacing it with good!
About the staring thing..I HATE when anyone stares at me too. Like my friends or parents, strangers or teachers. This is especially a problem when I am in a public area also and I get really uncomfortable.
When little little kids stare at me, I make weird faces at them and they stop or if they keep staring I make mean faces.
When my friends/people I know/adult strangers stare at me, I either look them in the eye and smile in a knowing way or I try to completely ingore them.

My sister is looking to find a carreer do you guys have any advice?
so don't like to stay home alone
usualy she likes to go out alot
she is planing to take iternational business
do you think it is a god career to study and work?
please give me as many advise as you can!
thanks alotMy sister is looking to find a carreer do you guys have any advice?
Yes and no, it really depends on her. International business is not just traveling around having a good time, there are many other factors that need to be considered; e.g. international accounting standards, international law, culture and language. It is hard to succeed straight from college into an international role, generally people need experience with in the company. But if she is motivate enough and has the drive I am sure she will go OK.

Do you follow your own advice?
You know that wonderful little paragraph full of wisdom and mental exertion that you always type out to really meaningful questions?
Well, do you follow your own advice? Or do you just say it because you know it's the right thing to do?Do you follow your own advice?
I say it because I know it's the right thing to do.
I almost never follow my own advice, nor anyone elses. I'm too stubborn. I just do things when they pop into my head, I don't think it over.Do you follow your own advice?
I critique poetry, finding flaws in structure and design. Yet, when mine are posted, i find that i have done the very same thing. Is this intentional? No, sometimes its hard to see your own faults until someone points them out to you. It is what true friends are for, people you can trust to tell you ';like it is';. However, ';All wisdom comes from God'; and therefore no matter what anyone says, it should line up with the Bible.
Matthew 7:2-4 (New American Standard Bible)
For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.
Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye?
I live my life by the wisdom of experience. I don't know any other way than to follow where I am led, no way of not doing what I say.
But I procrastinate, so I never advise people about time management.
I get distracted a million times a day, so I never offer advice about a busy mind -- my brain, like all of us, never shuts off.
I'm an insomniac, so I may advise someone about medicine I've taken.
Good question! t
Taking our own advice is one of the hardest things to do but I try and answer from past experiences and tell them how I've coped with the same feelings. I answer also because I know it's the right thing to do and the thing that *I* actually would do in that situation. I won't give someone false advice.
Well yes when i answer or tell a person advice i do it from my heart and not for the 2 points.If i tell someone to do this or try that it's because i have done it myself and it turned out good.If something really sucks then i tell them to leave it the hell alone' so yep i do toot my own horn and listen to what my heart and mind tells me 99 percent of the time.
Ah, actually sometimes I do. Other times I give out advice and its good advice but I'm never in that situation so I don't have to use my own advice or anyone else's on that topic but I only listen to myself, yeah i ask for advice and if its better than mine than I'll go use that person but I always use mine.
I trust my own advice -
better than I did before -
'course - I am now a lot older -
and (hopefully) a little wiser
than in my ';youth';.
If - I can share - some of my insights -
with others - and they share ';advice'; with me.
Then it would be fine - for all
who join and be the truth

well, i try to. but most of the time my answers come from my experiences and its often too late to take it. %26lt;3 but that's kind of how I make decisions now. I think of it as a question on Y!A and answer it. and i try and follow what I would say to someone else. you can tell I am on here way too much. haha.
I follow my advice, i don't sit here and lie to people just so they do the right thing i tell them what i think and what i would do, and i may come across as being a biotch but i'm really not, i just tell it how it is.
Most of the time. When I give advice to people, it's what I would do if I were in their situation. Sometimes my advice isn't usable in my situations, so I do the opposite.
Does that make me a hypocrite? Hmm...
=]
nope i never follow my own advice. i'll tell someone something is a mean horrible thing then i'll wind up doing it. it's okay though :)
btw; is that your puppyy???
it's adorable!!!!!
To the best of my ability. What, you expected me to pretend I'm perfect? That would insult your intelligence, wouldn't it? I have no intention of doing that.
I don't follow my own advice, God forbid. But for some people ridiculous is an improvement over reckless.
i try because the thing i hate most in the world is hypocrites and i understand no ones perfect but it pisses me off when i cant follow my own advice
I normally always follow my first instincts.
I always try to follow God's advice and spread it%26lt;3.
I just say it because it's the right thing to do. I don't follow my own advice.
I just go with my gut feeling, which is usually a bad thing.
HAHA! Nope!
But I can give good advice.
Hell no.oily skin
Well, do you follow your own advice? Or do you just say it because you know it's the right thing to do?Do you follow your own advice?
I say it because I know it's the right thing to do.
I almost never follow my own advice, nor anyone elses. I'm too stubborn. I just do things when they pop into my head, I don't think it over.Do you follow your own advice?
I critique poetry, finding flaws in structure and design. Yet, when mine are posted, i find that i have done the very same thing. Is this intentional? No, sometimes its hard to see your own faults until someone points them out to you. It is what true friends are for, people you can trust to tell you ';like it is';. However, ';All wisdom comes from God'; and therefore no matter what anyone says, it should line up with the Bible.
Matthew 7:2-4 (New American Standard Bible)
For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.
Why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye?
I live my life by the wisdom of experience. I don't know any other way than to follow where I am led, no way of not doing what I say.
But I procrastinate, so I never advise people about time management.
I get distracted a million times a day, so I never offer advice about a busy mind -- my brain, like all of us, never shuts off.

What advice would you give a young girl who is pregnant, but has not told anyone else but you?
(NOTE: I am typing this response as if I were actually speaking to the young girl)
';When you say young girl, how young are you? If you are a minor, your parents most certainly need %26amp; deserve to know UNLESS you are in an abusive relationship with either of them and your safety is an issue. However, my gut instinct does not tell me this is the case. You are scared and that is understandable. If you are uncomfortable telling them, then you need to tell a teacher, counselor, or minister or just anyone who you can trust to approach your parents with you. The longer you wait, the harder it will be. PLUS you need immediate prenatal care if you plan to keep this child. In this day and age, keeping it a secret makes absolutely no sense, especially since there are so many resources for young mothers today. Finally, I hope the kid's dad shares some of the responsibility with you as well. The sooner you get he and his family involved the easier it will be when the baby gets here. If he is an adult, this can really be complicated, BUT you have to be adult enough to step up and put the interest of the child FIRST. You were old enough to have sex, so now you have to be old enough to do the responsible thing. I wish you the best and I will pray for you as well.';
A responsible adult would not encourage her to keep it to herself. Again, the interest of the child comes first, friendship with the mother is second. What advice would you give a young girl who is pregnant, but has not told anyone else but you?
You need to feel comfortable to confide in someone talk to someone you trust a friend, your mom, an aunt. Once you talk to someone you trust is will be easier to talk to the ones who will eventally need to know. Make sure you go to the doctor. Get on prenatal vitiamins. Take care of your self. Get plenty of sleep and drink alot of water. Your parents will probably be upset at first but they will come to relize that there isnt much they can do about it but support you and the baby. Good luck to you! What advice would you give a young girl who is pregnant, but has not told anyone else but you?
I would tell her to tell her parents. She needs to get good quality prenatal care right away to make sure that the baby is healthy. The baby is the priority here. I know that this can be hard thing to do but they will find out eventually. She needs to take responsibility here. You can't engage in adult activities such as sex and not be adult enough to accept the consequences. Best of luck to this girl.
~tell her that she needs to tell her parents and if she wants me to help her do it i will be more than happy to help her break the news.
~that she needs to get into a doctors office asap to start her prenatal care. and that if she cant afford to see a doctor i would tell her to go the your local health dept and they will walk her through what she needs to do to get proper prenatal care for her and her baby.
~recommend that she go and get her some over the counter prenatal vitamins to start taking.
tell your parents, see a doctor or planned parenthood for advice about adoption, abortion (hopefully not), or if you will keep your child. i hope the dad is involved and she stays in school. It will be tough. Im 21 with a 5 and 1 1/2 year old boys, continued school for a year and a half to graduate, and still with my boyfriend of seven years.e-mail me if you would like to.
I would advise them to work through a really great workbook online here: http://www.pregnancyoptions.info/pregnan鈥?/a> . I would tell them to make up their own mind about what they want to do (which is why the workbook is a good idea, it helps articulate what you're feeling and what you want to do).
Then I would advise her to talk to her parent(s) about what she has decided to do. If you need help with that, check out this site: http://www.momdadimpregnant.com/ .
Best of luck!

FIRST - GO TO YOUR LOCAL HEALTH DEPARMENT AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE PREGNANT AND START YOUR PREGNANCY OFF RIGHT WITH MEDICAL CARE AND PRE-NATAL VITAMINS.....NEXT TELL YUOR PARENTS ...if YOU ARE RELLY PREGNANT (MAY WANT TO DO THAT FROM A FRIENDS HOUSE OR PAYPHONE!lol) THEN TAKE IT FROM THERE - BEING STRESSED ABOUT TELLING YOUR PARENTS ISN'T GOOD FOR YOU OR THE BABY.....AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TELL THEM ANYWAY...MAY AS WELL GET IT OVER WITH.
Not to confide in anybody until she feels ready to do so. Oh, prenatal vitamins and healthy diet, of course. And checking out a lawyer in case she needs to sue for child-support.
calm her...tell her to tell it to her parents also..
her parents would understand her situation...
Tell an adult, and see a doctor. Take care of yourself and your new little one.
you can't hide it for long.
tell your doctor..
and your parents..
it might be rough at first, but itll get better
best of luck
I would tell her to tell her parents
