| Hi, I am literally struggling with my 9 1/2 year old son about getting a haircut -- he refuses to get a haircut and his hair is growing very long. He has been ridiculed at school for looking like a girl. When he was a little boy, he would get all antsy about getting a haircut until we found someone ... |

Anyone have experienced in having their child outfitted with braces? I am dreading this because I know it will be painful but the pediatric dentis... |

| Oh yes, we decided to drive to Tampa. There we found a mom & pop motel on the ocean at Treasure Island so we stayed there for two days. It was a blissful time for all of us as we could easily walk to the beach and go swimming. My family had a great time. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise that ... |

| Yes, it is so hard to pry him away from the computer -- he would go out and then start getting agitated a few hours later and begging that he wants to go home. We are trying very hard to get him off from the computer but then we have to get him to do something else. He used to have a very close frie... |

| I agree, they had no furniture at all in their house, not even in their porch. There was no place to sit down except on the floor/carpeting. We made arrangements with them a couple of months ago before visiting them and they informed us in advance that they may not be able to get furniture on time a... |
