[ - ] how many of your pediatricians took db off whole milk at the 2yo checkup. ds's was very ambivalent about it, and so i'm not really sure what to do. he's really big (84% weight, 97 height) so he doesn't need calories, but isn't the fat good for their brains? thanks. 7 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

it's not a major diff between the 2% and whole milk. (5g of fat vs 8 g or something), so they still get the fat that's needed for developing from 2%. FWIW, my ped said it wasn't a big deal to switch her over at 2 yo so that I didn't go crazy buying 2 diff kinds of milk for her and for younger dd (but she was also small) [ Reply | More

[ - ] I keep seeing kids in adorable tshirts - some tie-dye, whimsical, with cute sparkly designs (like ice cream cones or something). What are some brands that make those so I can look online? I am sure Denny's or Lesters have - but can't make it there. 10 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

my position was always against abortion but grudgingly accepting of the idea that it should be legal. then i miscarried and ended up having the d&e in an abortion clinic and i am absolutely fascinated by the subject. i'm doing a lot of research and some of my ideas are changing. [ Reply | More

I am pro-CHOICE, not pro-ABORTION. No one is pro-abortion. Personally I would never have an abortion, however it is absolutely none of my business what anyone other women chooses to do with her body and it is certainly none of the government's business. If they made it illegal I would most certainly be outraged and probably get involved in some kind of protest movement. This is America, not Iraq. We make the choices about what we do with our bodies and our families, not hte church or government or anyone else. [ Reply | More

[ - ] my nephew is 6 years ols (dh sisters kid), he is awful all the time, screams in church, kicks, puches, i have never see a kid act like this before, and i used to work at a day care. He tried to throw my son (2) sown a flight of cement cellar steps. he has also said things like the reason he wants to be a police officer is so that he can kill people, something he's wanted to do "his whole life". when i told my SIL about this she just kinda shrugged and said "boys will be boys" WWYD? I am really concerned that he is disturbed.... 13 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

there was a child at my ds's OT last year who grabbed dd's doll, threw it repeatedly on the floor, and yelled "your doll is DEAD! DEAD!" it was horrible. I knew he had issues, but his mom was right there. Although, it would be hard to be her. Anyway, I agree with above poster, there's nothing you can do but stay away. You could ask DH to talk to her, or maybe better yet, DH to talk to MIL to talk to SIL [ Reply | More
