[ - ] Hello! Does anyone have a hotel/resort suggestion for Fort Lauderdale or Miami? Specifically, we're looking for something directly on the beach that is 3yo kid friendly and somewhat fancy. We won't have a car, so an area where we could walk to other things would be awesome (but I won't hold my breath). Thank you so much...as you can see I'm not familiar with the areas and trip advisor only gets you so far! 10 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Where is your husband's job? I grew up in Coral Gables and now I live in the South of Fifth area of South Beach. CG is really nice and there are a few nice apt buildings but not so many. The houses and neighborhoods are beautiful there and there are huge yards for kids to play. South of Fifth is wonderful, lots of fun, but pricey! Rent for a 2/2 apt in a luxury building (almost all of South of Fifth) at least $5000/month. Are you looking for religious schools? [ Reply | More

You are 37 years old. Not to be harsh but you can make this decision for yourself and no one should stand in your way. Do you want children or not? Do you want your bf or not? Love will find a way, but don't do anything because you think you won't have enough time. It will be a worse situation for you to be tied to someone you will develop problems with, and resent having a baby with. If you found out you were pregnant now, what would you do? [ Reply | More

Second best case: We marry but continue with current incomes and no kids. Barely acceptable case: We marry, he improves business and I work for 2-3 years and then TTC. Other barely acceptable case: We marry and continue current incomes, TTC with both of us full-time after birth, perhaps with a vague chance of me staying at home in several years when we can afford it. Unacceptable case: TTC after age 40. Other unacceptable case: breaking up. By the way, there is no prob with my boss. We have supported each other through thick and thin.

Tell him that you don't want kids. You will and should, lose him but so be it. Better than having a child you don't really want and finding yourself as the sole support for a family you never wanted in the first place. What if he actually wants more than one? Think of the DC w parents who will likely resent eachother. Sounds like recipient for total disaster. You will both be happier better matched and. He is plenty young enough to build a real life w someone who truly wants a child (or more). [ Reply | More

First, stop BC and see what happens. Tell him if he wants to have a family you will do it, but he'll have to work full time for a while. When DB is 3 you will go back to work, and he can cut back & care for DB. You being with DB from 0-3--am assuming you're not nuts, and going to be really into it bec taking care of other peoples kids didn't make you want slit wrists--makes the most sense. GL.

OP here. This sounds like a reasonable compromise. However, his “working full time” involves him aggressively trying to get more clients and building his business (he’s an attorney in private practice), but I think that the money won’t come in until he does a lot of unpaid networking, pro-bono, etc to get his practice on the map. He says because he graduated at the bottom third of his class, it’s unlikely that he’d get hired by a firm. In three years, he’d probably just be starting to reap the fruits of his labor. Perhaps some attorneys could chime in and let me know what they think. [ Reply | More

OP here. No, and he doesn’t feel any male pride or obligation about being able to provide for a family. He’s more modern and doesn’t care about traditional gender roles. I’m more old-fashioned, though, so he’s adjusted to suit me (kills bugs, pays on dates, etc.) He doesn’t do this because he wants to, but because he thinks I’m worth the effort. This is not ideal, but at least I know he cares. [ Reply | More

He needs to apply for real jobs. He is not suited for self employment. Lawyer jobs, non attorney jobs, public sector, non profit, etc.... Unless he's done that, the bottom third of class is a very lame excuse. Does he know anyone-- personal/family--with a good job he can talk to? Whether or not he had kids, it is in both your interests that he quit hiding out and learn how to work full-time. At some point you're going to resent sharing expenses, and mothering a privileged underachiever. [ Reply | More

Would you be ok with him staying home to take care of DB? Or do you need it to be you? If I were you, I'd def try to have a DB (get married first, if that's important to you). You said your maternal instinct is satisfied with the kids you take care of. But that means you do have a maternal instinct, I think eventually you will want your own. I'd do it, ask employer to stay home for a bit (would they be ok with it?) and then have him stay home with DB part time and do daycare part time. Or, he has to man up and work more, esp since he is the one who wants kids. [ Reply | More

+1. And in the meantime, if there's even a CHANCE that you'll be having kids in the next several years, he needs to start working more. He has an incredibly high student debt load to deal with. I would also make sure to know exactly what your own plans are with him -- are you committed to being with him forever? In other words, are you not married just because you don't believe in the need for marriage, or are there other reasons? All this talk about "his" and "my" savings and debt also sends up red flags. If you knew for sure you wanted a baby then it's one thing, but you could end up single mom (and probably the main provider, unless he gets his act together, financially). [ Reply | More

... in any case, he sounds like right now he'd be the more obvious choice to stay home with the kids, but before you start making major financial decisions like that I think you'll have to start approaching your debt as "ours", and also think of future savings, etc., as "ours." I'd feel uncomfortable doing that without marriage, but if marriage isn't an issue for you, I'd at least make sure that you have had big conversations and also have all your bases covered legally to make sure that the entire family is protected in case of worst-case scenarios.

But if I had to be completely honest with myself, I know he’d do a good job. He may park them in front of the TV with a Happy Meal more often than I would, but they’ll still loved and happy. The real reason I think I “should” stay home or go part time is really just because I want to be there for all the little things. [ Reply | More

Each helps in its own way, start one form of treatment and then add after 4 weeks so that you know what is working and what isn't. I would start w/cortisone shots and the shampoo. [ Reply | More

Hi. Am a Miami native who lived in Manhattan for many years. The OR to your post is correct..Coral Gables and Coconut Grove are some of the nicest areas for families. Coral Gables and Coconut Grove both border each other and overlap in some areas, so the difference is not that much. There are of course other areas, but as far as being centrally located to the best schools, I think these two are winners. Also try South Miami and Pinecrest(on the outskirts of Coral Gables). These areas are about a half hour to 45 min commute to SoBe depending on traffic. Some wonderful schools are Alexander Montessori, Riviera Day School and Gulliver Prep. If you don't mind religion, there are some good religious schools, such as Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart for Girls, St. Thomas, St. Stephen's,and Palmer Trinity. There is also a French School here, and some (a VERY few) decent public magnets worth considering. I am certain that at least one of these schools could accomodate your children on short notice, as it is not as competitive here as in the city. For my money (quite literally) Alexander Montessori is the way to go. But you must see the schools and experience their varying cultures for yourself. Please be aware: no matter how well you choose, there will be culture shock. Miami can be a tough adjustment for a New Yorker. [ Reply | More

My favorites of those are Nina and Mia. Mia is becoming pretty common, though. Ditto Chloe, Stella and Olivia. [ Reply | More

Olivia and Mia are a dime a dozen. If you want uncommon, go with one of the others. [ Reply | More

Like Nina. Hate Chloe...sounds white trash to me. Mia sounds like she's Spanish (which is fine if you are.) [ Reply | More

Don't like Stella or Nina at all and although Olivia and Mia are lovely, both are pretty common. I'd go with either Chloe or Phoebe. Phoebe is actually one of the names we were considering for a girl too. [ Reply | More

All of those are way overdone. She won't be the only one to have that name in a class. Why not choose something slightly different? [ Reply | More

[ - ] Has anyone been to Cancun after the oil spill? How are the beaches? I wonder if they were affected by the disaster. 1 Reply [ Reply | Watch | More

I have actually been reading a bunch about this as we go every winter to Riveria Maya/Tulum/Holbox all Cancun area. Supposedly because of the way that currents work the Yucatan Peninsula will be spared. I am not sure I would eat fish from the Gulf, but in terms of tar balls, the beaches, etc, it should be fine.

Our needs have changed and now my resourceful and engaging nanny is available for f/t live in/live out baby nurse/nanny position with a new family.During her tenure with us, she was tremendously well organized, great communicator, can sing, read and stimulate your children she is educated and has experience with infant children,engaging and amazing and was certainly instrumental in increasing our kids learning capabilities words cannot express the appreciation I had for her and the love and care she portrayed during her stint with us. My loss will certainly be another family's gain. Please feel free to email me clari3584@gmail.com for more info. She just moved to Miami, you can arrange to meet with her when you get there.
