How do you encourage a shy child to be all they can be?

clock March 1, 2010 10:54 by author Donna Chaffins
  As a mother to a somewhat shy child, I've always tried to do things that will help my son... come out of his shell.  He isn't as shy as he use to be; and definitely not crippling shy.  He will speak when spoken to and will participate if he feels confident.  He has ... [More]





   

How do you make time for your significant other?

clock February 24, 2010 13:59 by author Donna Chaffins
  In today's hectic - never enough hours in the day - society, it's difficult sometimes (especially as parents) to make time for your spouse or boyfriend. I just celebrated my anniversary yesterday, and luckily, my husband works from home so we were able to make a date "day".  ... [More]





   

What's the difference between a proud parent and a bragging parent?

clock February 19, 2010 18:56 by author Donna Chaffins
  When I was younger we had a family acquaintance that would brag on his daughter (he also had a son, but only talked about his daughter).  It got to the point that we dreaded seeing him because he would go on and on.  So I always said I'd never be that kind of parent. Fas... [More]

  Do you live "green"?  Is it a top priority in your life to be eco-friendly?  If so what steps to you take or how do you teach your kids to be eco-friendly? I will admit to not always being the greenest person... but I strive to be better.  Especially with a child, I... [More]





   

Do you use cutsey nicknames when referring to your children's private parts?

clock February 3, 2010 15:34 by author Donna Chaffins
  I've heard moms refer to their little boy's penis as their "little buddy" and "Jr" and little girl's vaginas as "kitty cats".  And before I had my son, I said I would never use cute nicknames in place of the anatomically correct names.  Yet, I do.  My son knows he h... [More]





   

Do you get jealous when your kids prefer daddy over you?

clock January 29, 2010 00:05 by author Donna Chaffins
  Mommy's boy.  That aptly described my lil' guy.  We've always had a wonderful bond.  However, lately he is becoming, dare I say it?... Daddy's boy.  Don't get me wrong, he and I still have this special relationship; he's growing up, way too fast, and being aroun... [More]

  Can you believe another year has come and gone?  It definitely flew by for me.  And sadly, the older I get, the faster it flies by.  It being the start of a new year, I like many of you, may make New Year resolutions.  This is the first resolution I've made in ... [More]
