Kids playing in the streets by Mandy Anderson
I'm furious with my neighbors who seem to think the streets in our subdivision are for playing. Several women who have nothing better to do petitioned the county to put speed bumps in to slow cars down, yet the speed limit of 25 mph is still fast enough to kill or injure a child. When the sun is...

Surprising Things 9-yos say by Scott
So DS is sitting at the kitchen table, and out of nowhere pops "And now for 10 seconds of sex" Well not nowhere, actually... We've been watching Monty Python with him. He really does laugh at some of the skits, but I hope he doesn't go quoting all of it in school! ;) Scott DD 12 and DS 9

One of the summer assignments (from me) for my 11 year old son going into 7th grade next year is that he learn to keyboard. It would help him with assignments, now that some can be turned in typed (his handwriting is atrocious), and he's falling into a hunt-and-peck two-finger habit when he...

Kid going away with friends by Nevermind
My 9 YO has been invited to go about 12 hours away for an entire week with the family of a friend of his. This friend is a good friend, but not someone he spends a ton of time with. Two overnight get-togethers have gone well. My son is very sociable but also gets cranky and needs alone time on a...
