Well I keep reading that evening primrose oil helps with EWCM. I rarely ever notice EWCM, and I’m wondering if the oil, which is essential fatty acids, could be what my body is lacking. I’m wondering if anyone here has any experience or stories, either successful or otherwise, in using this supplement for CM. I started taking it today.
……………
I had prolems with a lack of EWCM so started taking the EPO and found it did help increase EWCM
i live with my mom only.
want to change to be under the custody of my sister.
i am 16 years old.
my sister is 20 years old.
Well, I have to disagree with some of these answers.
Unless your mother is willing to give your sister a power of attorney to act in her stead as your guardian then you must go to court. (By the way, have you discussed this with your mother? How does she feel about it?)
I petitioned the court for a change of guardianship when I was your age. First let me say that they are right in that it wasn’t easy. (My mother’s behavior in court actually helped me a lot.)
Ask yourself these questions:
What are your reasonings?
Is your mother a fit parent? (Is she mentally/physically ill? Is she an alcoholic/drug addict? Is she abusive–verbally, mentally, emotionally?)
Can your mother adequately financially support you?
Can your sister support you financially?
Have you been in trouble at school or with the law? (Suspensions, failing grades, arrests or been detained by officers until the arrival of your mother)
What is it that your sister can provide for you that your mother can not?
Answer these questions honestly. Then reflect on them–take a good hard look at them. Is there a really REALLY good reason for you to take extreme measures against your mother? Or are you a teenage girl going through the typical crap that most mothers and daughters go through? (Curfews, grades, good/bad friends, chores, borrowing the car, etc)
Remember, this will probably effect your relationship with your mother for the rest of your life.–not in a good way either.
For the record, I became an emancipated minor after I was a ward of the state for 9 months (kind of an “observation” period) before a family court judge ruled in my favor. –It took over ten years for my mother and me to repair our relationship and we still have to work hard at it sometimes.

Sorry hun, but it doesn’t work that way. You are still a child, which means that you can’t make such decisions on your own. Your mother would have to sign over her rights to your sister, or her rights would have to be taken away (and only for a darn good reason). Even if her rights were taken away, you wouldn’t automatically go to your sister. If the judge didn’t think it would get a good idea, you’d be sent to foster care.
The magic age is 18. That’s when you’ll get to decide where and with whom you want to live. You’ll just have to stick it out for the next two years.
My son is 12 years old and never brushes his teeth! Whenever we go to the dentist, he’ll brush his teeth beforehand and then the dentist don’t say anything. But they look disgustingly yellow and his breath smells! I don’t know what I can do to make him see how important it is and forcing him only makes him do it less. Also, never washes his face properly and is at the age where he’s getting spots any way, but I know they could be reduced. Any tips??
Cover his face a bit in the pic, but put a few of him and his golden yellows online somewhere and wait for the comments to do more than your nagging ever could
Also, make a dental appoint for him WITHOUT telling him. Simply take him to it in his natural state.
Humiliating? Maybe a touch, but less painful than half a dozen root canals by the time you’re 25 and or dentures popping out at dinner at Friday’s when he’s 35.

If he is going to behave like a little child, then treat him like one until he decides to grow up and act his age.
He can’t be relied on to brush his teeth on his own? Then you or your husband walk with him to the bathroom and stand there while he does it. Stand there while he washes his face to make sure he does it properly. If he isn’t showering long enough, then you or your husband take him to the bathroom once a day and stand outside the shower while he is in there. Hopefully he will get tired of this routine and agree to take care of his hygiene on his own.
My baby girl is 7 weeks old now.When we take her for bath her skin is suddenly changing to red colour. We always check the temperature, but that is always ok. Please help me with this. IS there any remedy…?
Is she particularly pale? Me and my son are very pale and our skin turns red in the bath- not too hot or too cold either, just happen to get effected by the water. It doesn’t hurt and it doesn’t last for more than 10mins after the bath. As long as she isn’t crying in pain and the redness goes away that quickly, don’t worry.
The first person suggested changing her soap- good idea, try one with no fragrance (California Baby or Simple Baby) Johnson’s products are so full of chemicals- horrible for that sensitive skin. My son used to scream in pain from the lotion- like it was burning his skin.

what kind of baby soap do you use, my son is allergic to a lot of differnt soaps and I can only use select ones for him.
Sometimes he is ok with one kind at first then starts breaking out later.
My youngest son turns 6 tomorrow. He’s a lot of fun, quite the lady-killer and a soccer star. He wants to go to Texas Roadhouse for a birthday dinner (his kindergarten class got a tour of the kitchen and now he swears the staff are all his closest friends). What sort of jokes/tricks can we play on him to make this a fun day?
those candles that don’t blow out are always a great laugh.
I really like the scavanger idea above………my neighbor did that with her 8 year old and it was lots of fun

You can send him on a scavenge hunt for his gift or a hint about dinner.
Survival rate for premature babies are a lot higher, now a days due to medical advancements.
Maybe assist them, but not totally finance everything. There are too many negative side effects of doing that. **
There were a lot of children in my family, so we had to finance everything ourselves. I was working full time at age 15 just to buy clothing and shampoo. It was tough, but I don’t regret it, it gave me character. **
I think that things are definately different for children now… 100 years ago, 11 year old boys were running a farm — or at least doing a good share of the work. Now, I am happy if I can get my 11 year old son to pick up his socks and lower the toilet seat. Our expectaions for children have changed, lowered. As a result, they are living up to what we expect. **
I think one of the most important things we need to teach children is personal responsibilty. Children need to grow into adults that accept responsibilty for their actions. If they are always saying, “I am this way because of my circumstance” or “I am not this way because I wasn’t ever given a fair shot” they will never succeed. They need to learn that they are in charge of their own destiny. THey decide how their life will turn out. Events and circumstances may steer them one way or the other, but ultimately, they decide what and who they are going to become. If they can grasp this, then they can go on to provide for their families, emotionally and financially. They need to learn that success comes from how we treat others, not how much money we make. **
