You'd never allow 2 boys- cousins- to share a double bed? I guess your family never shares a hotel room?

this. no reason at all for them to be in the same bed. I would assume 11 year old has a different bedtime anyway, they don't need to share a room.

I would never allow this either. You shouldn't have let it happen once. Now it's going to be hard to stop it, but you need to.

Unless this kid is really fucked up, I highly doubt he's molesting his 5 y/o cousin at night. If it makes you uncomfortable, then no, you shouldn't do it, but I don't see why it would.

If it's a kids movie, I think it's totally ok and people expect that the theater experience won't be completely silent and without disruption.

Commercial movies are very loud. I wouldn't take a child this young. Cultivate alternate sitters. There are hundreds of people who could do a good job taking care of your child for a few hours.

Keep at it, and paint her thumb nails with bitter polish from the drugstore. She'll "bawl" here and there for a week or two and then be done with it.

I really feel that it is starting to interfere in daily life. I know that sounds crazy but she'll try and do things one-handed because she needs her thumb. She tries building towers with only one hand, it'll fall over, and she'll flip out. I try to get her to do it with two hands and she won't. Otherwise, I don't know that I'd really care; it's just all the time.

I don't remember for sure. I do remember my older brothers trying to get me to stop, telling me I would need braces(( would just laugh). And people asking me what it tasted like. I think at a certain point, maybe 3 or so my mom told me I could only suck my thumb at night time. I don't know what she did to enforce that though. And the only thing that got me to stop at night was the presence of a full mouth retainer that I had to wear overnight. It was just extremely soothing to me.

Stop her now. Find a way. I say this from 100% personal experience. I STILL suck my thumb and I'm over 40! I'm telling you it's an intense habit. I didn't even care that my boyfriend (who is now my DH) knew after only like 2 months of being together. I had to fess up because I just couldn't stop and do it in my sleep every single night without fail. It can be better than sex, chocolate or anything else you can think of. A total crazy addiction. It's the most comforting thing in the universe and I probably will never give it up now but that's why I say stop her asap. I wished my mom was more vigliant about it but she let it go after trying gloves, vaseline on thumbs etc. I love and I will not give it up for anything. It has also made my teeth and bite pretty messed up. I mean they don't look terrible but my teeth would have been so much nicer and I think my jaw is all messed up from it too (TMJ). Confession of the night. GL!

They are cute, but I think they've had their ups and downs. It used to be pretty clear she was much more in love with him than vice versa, but maybe he's grown to appreciate her. It's weird that she used to be married to Scott Foley. I'll be watching him on Scandal and randomly remember that.

Oh really. I never observed that. Not that we really know but I think she's a major catch for him and he should appreciate everything about her. Beauty, brains, classy and talented not to mention she seems like a great mom oh and down to earth as "normal" as it get for HOllywood.

Didn't she get pregnant to trap him? That was the gossip theory at least. He kind of pisses me off with how much he talks about his ex's and Blake Lively, though. He talks about them so animatedly and discusses their beauty; I would be so pissed.

No, you're not. They both bounced around a bit before they ended up together. He was majorly on the rebound and she was very determined to get him. She did (I don't think she trapped him, but she was pregnant when they married) and she's hung on, so it's worked out.

My response is to always go the opposite direction and behave like some hippy chick not playing the game at all. I'm not saying it's right - but it's what works for me. It makes me hope that she will feel stupid for caring so much about where our kids are going to school.

Want my honest opinion? Sounds like you are inferring a lot of this and projecting "as if to see." YOu don't know for sure she is doing this. SOunds a little paranoid to be honest. I think you need to take a look inside a little deeper. Not trying to be rude here but I understand it can be easy to fall into this kind of thing but you need to pull yourself out of it fast.

Hmm hard decision, but I'd probably go with BWL. I like that it's more established and it seemed nice when we toured. A lot more extra curricular opportunities there right now than Avenues. Avenues has gorgeous brand new facilities and if their plan works out, would be really nice as well. Avenues is too new for me. Give it ten years, then maybe it might surpass great schools, but it's too soon to tell IMO.

I think it's funny because the people who are complaining are the ones who can't afford to buy a place with a half bath for guests/employees/workers. If they had a half bath, then the problem is solved. They aren't as rich or as "classy" as they think they are.

APC jeans "new cure". I buy 1 pair every couple of years, I love the way the wear out. Amazing shape, amazing color. Have had three pairs since 2002. Before I discovered how well these jeans fit me I wore Earl Jeans, bootcut.

$38, but I assume that they'll go on sale sooner or later. Saw nice looking tees in Old Navy today, but I was too lazy to try them on. Friend also suggested Joe Fresh for inexpensive tees.

Last summer got some great oens, just what you are talking about at Gap, their Pure line. Not sure if they have similar ones this season. So perfect though. Of course there's always James Perse but so pricey.
