Raising Children

Children


Since children do not come with manuals, the next best thing is sound and quality advice. These topics discuss everything from the antics of your teenage daughter to understanding your toddler  


Push Presents

Calling all Dads-to-be...may I have your attention? You're about to be schooled. You may have thought impregnating your wife was the greatest gift you could ever give her, but I'm here to tell you that you're way off. While I'm sure she's eternally grateful for the permanent stretch marks and daily vomiting that has become her new reality, you need to know that she expects much more from you in the future. » more

The Joys Of Being Pregnant

There are a lot of things you can't have when you're pregnant and every day the list of forbidden foods and beverages seems to grow longer and longer. I became paranoid about every thing I was about to consume. What if this dish has raw cheese or the ever-sinister lunch meat hidden inside? » more

Photographing a Child

When they see a camera some children start smiling and posing while other children turn shy and refuse to look up. Both of these can be distracting when you are trying to get that special look, but you can help both types of children become comfortable in front of the camera. » more

When Do Children Lose Their First Teeth

Most children can also expect to lose their first tooth around the age of six. If your child got her baby teeth early, she will likely get her adult teeth a little early, but not generally before the age of six. If your child’s baby teeth were a little late in coming, his adult teeth will likely be a little late too. » more

My Baby Won’t Sleep

It seems that when my baby won’t sleep there isn’t really a pattern or a noticeable change in his world. Sometimes, when he reaches a milestone, it seems like he becomes restless for a few days, but then there are other days that he is restless and it almost seems like he’s forgotten the milestones he has already reached. » more

Setting Boundaries with Teenagers

Peer pressure is most often a factor of who your child chooses to hang out with. They think well of their friends, otherwise they wouldn’t be friends to begin with. Peer pressure is disguised behind a myriad of other behaviors that seem like good behaviors. » more

Kicking Your Teenager Out

When you ban your kid from the home, you are setting them up to opt for a few choices, and none of them are offering them a bright and beautiful future. If they are still in high school, they are going to have to secure a place to live. » more

How Lack of Sleep Affects New Parents

Having just had my second baby, I can see the familiar signs of sleep deprivation in my appearance and demeanor: dark circles under my eyes, slouchy posture, slow pace, forgetfulness and, occasionally, a rather short fuse. I’ve even had days when I have opted not to drive my car because I felt too tired to operate it safely. » more
