My Questions & Answers
Mommy confessions: What's the most effective bribe?
None of the above. I've posted mine below.
Are you strict about bedtimes?
No. It’s negotiable as long as it's reasonable.
Are you relieved that the holidays are almost over?
No! I'll miss the festive atmosphere.
Shoes on or off at the door? Where do you stand?
As long as they're not covered in mud, adults are welcome to keep their shoes on, especially for parties. A little dirt is healthy.
How do you keep your kids' holiday eating in check?
I let them have as much as they like. Their bodies will tell them when enough is enough.
Holiday cards: Will you send one this year?
Should soccer player be thrown out of school?
No. Her conduct on the field shouldn't impact her status as a student at the school.
How do you deal with temper tantrums?
I give my child a time out.
Should stay-at-home moms receive tax credit for the jobs they do?
I'm not sure.
Parents sane to let 16-year-old daughter sail solo?
I’m not sure. I’d need to know more about the teen’s capabilities.
Comments & Feedback
If your child had fell on it or got poked by accident, would you use common sense? Rules are put into place for a reason. It is the parents responsibility to ensure that their children know and follow the rules that the school put into place.
Kimberly nice to see you in the Today MOMS community
Who's the cute kid?
Ever been stabbed with a fork? hurts just a bit. If a kid wants to hurt someone, even a spork will do it. Such a child would have noticeable behavior before some sort of attack happened. BUT, ACCIDENTS do happen. This young man would understand that no one should get hurt at school. Tell him to save it for the places besides school so we can start to deal with REAL issues. NO SUSPENSIO, just UNDERSTANDING. This child is just that. Let him be.
