Maybe try to schedule a night where it is just you and your 13 year old. ... Sun, 5 Oct 2008 09:49:51 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/64346/ Thank you for all your wonderful advice. I started taking Emily to play groups and library story times and she is coming along great. She's always excited to see other kids and explore new places. Fri, 3 Oct 2008 08:55:37 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/64346/ Hi Sarah, My daughter is 2 and I recently found out I should have been exposing her to different textures too; as well as new sounds. When she was 1 her favorite toy was my big exercise ball. She used to love laying or bouncing on it. ... Thu, 2 Oct 2008 11:18:02 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/64346/ Hello Sarah, an your Emily is adorable! =) That's about the age they do this, my two daughters (5 & 3) were like that and my son that's 13 months sounds like that. ... Wed, 1 Oct 2008 22:17:34 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72568/ I call it about anything I can think of that moment LOL, I can call it their peaches or their pee pee but I try to say the correct word of Vagina. ... Wed, 1 Oct 2008 22:08:17 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/70866/ I just read your post. My daughter is five now. I started potty training her when she was about 2 1/2. It took about 6 months before there was complete success! I did charts. First I started with a chart that had seven squares on it. ... Tue, 30 Sep 2008 17:45:44 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72568/ I grew up calling it a "poopie" that is what my daughter also now calls it. We still have pee and poo but when it is just her "girlie" parts it is boobies and poopies in this house. ... Tue, 30 Sep 2008 17:32:03 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72568/ My daughters were raised saying "woo woo", I mean it isn't the best maybe for you, but it is easy for a child to say and for a parent to understand what they are talking about. Good Luck. Tue, 30 Sep 2008 17:17:07 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72800/ First of all I am a single mother of 2 girls and I don't even know what I did so right in life to have 2 of me, I have a 13 yr old who is model bound, and a 3 yr old who cracks me up, total comedian /model. ... Tue, 30 Sep 2008 17:01:08 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/71969/ Pictures, Fingerprinting, voice recording and DNA are all a great resource, as a back up. You have definitely taken the first steps. However, DNA, fingerprinting and pictures do nothing to 'prevent' your child from going missing. ... Tue, 30 Sep 2008 09:28:19 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/71969/ Do you have to go to a certain police dept to get all this done or is it any office. I would go crazy if my daughter was abducted! Tue, 30 Sep 2008 08:06:40 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72568/ Thank you. This little one calls it her "butt" too! Everytime I change her diaper she points & says "butt". I think it's adorable of course. ... Tue, 30 Sep 2008 02:38:59 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72568/ Well, I honestly call it what it is. My daughter didn't notice boys and girls were different until she was about 2. She saw her dad naked and asked what his penis was. We answered it with the truth. ... Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:50:41 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/72568/ Vagina (What do we call it?) Pee-pee is annoying to me and names like "private parts" seem so generic. ... Mon, 29 Sep 2008 19:15:05 -0400 http://www.raisingthem.com/posts/view/71969/ We have gone through the police dept and have pictures, voice recordings, finger prints and DNA samples. Hopefully we will not have to ever use this stuff, but we've got it if we do. Sun, 28 Sep 2008 21:24:15 -0400
