Just curious.Ladies if you could give men any advice about KISSING, what would it be?
Slow,soft, light biting with your lips to hers, being kissed straight on, light tongue then a very sensual slow licking of the tongue. Slow and sensual works for me. I find it very romantic and a turn on. Good luck.Ladies if you could give men any advice about KISSING, what would it be?
Hold your lady's face in your hands and turn her head to receive your kiss. Make sure your breath is fresh and watch the tongue- a little goes a long way. Oh one last thing, don't inhale her whole mouth into yours, kissing is supposed to be done on lips, also don't ';chew'; while kissing, a little opening and closing of your mouth is ok though.....
1. Watch what you eat. If you decide to have onions or garlic, make sure she eats them as well !!!
2. Watch your hygiene... brush and floss. Use mouthwash as well.
3. Shave before a date. ALWAYS. I mean it. Few things make women feel like kicking a man's butt....but kissing a man whose cheeks feel like sandpaper is not fun at all...! It's even worse if you are supposed to have sex later...
4. Don't be too slobbery or too noisy. Kiss with strength but with gentleness as well. (Older men know what this means. Young kids don't.)
Start by trying to connect emotionally like laughing, staring in her eyes, or stroking her hair. Then lead in with a light kiss and work your way from there
From one man to another...
Kiss there a**!
That's where women like to be kissed!
Don't hurry it.
1. Don't shove your tounge down her throat (its discusting)
2. make sure ur not all slobbery( it makes us want to barf)
3. Don't put a ton of force behind the kiss
We REALLY don't like wet kisses! Swallow your spit before a long slow one! PLEASE!!!
dont be hasty, take your time and make it tasty...

If there was just one piece of advice you had to give to a first time mom, what would it be?
Anything you wish u knew before u actually became a mom or wish somebody had told you? If there was just one thing you had to pass along...what would it be? First time mom in May!!If there was just one piece of advice you had to give to a first time mom, what would it be?
That's a toughy. I wasn't worried so much about caring for my baby as I was trying to get her OUT of me. I thought my doctor knew best and let him push me into a c-section and I regret it every time I look at my body in the mirror. Question authority. Research your delivery hospital. Get an advocate...someone who will make sure your wishes are carried out!
I know...that may not be the type of advice you were looking for...but if someone had told me what could happen when you let doctors talk you into things b/c you think they know so much...I would have done things way differently.If there was just one piece of advice you had to give to a first time mom, what would it be?
I may get lots of thumbs down for this, but I don't care. I didn't want to breastfeed for several reasons. I was nervous about not knowing exactly how much they were getting, couldn't get comfortable with doing it in public, and wanted to be able to share middle-of-the-night wakeup calls with my husband. My mom gave me and my brother formula and we turned out fine, but my MIL exclusively breastfed all four of her boys and thought her way was the only way. She threw a fit when I told her (before the baby was born) that I wasn't planning on nursing and gave me an hourlong lecture on the benefits of breastmilk. I finally agreed, mostly to shut her up, and nursed for about the first six weeks, but finally decided I didn't care what she or anyone else thought and switched to formula. My daughter didn't care, and that's all that really mattered to me. If you choose to nurse, that's great, but LET IT BE YOUR DECISION!!! Don't let yourself be railroaded by family, friends, or anyone else.
Relax %26amp; enjoy your new role. If you're tired, snooze when the baby naps and don't feel pressured to even leave your bedroom for a whole day, if needed.
Congratulations on your new arrival! Good luck!
Also, one of my favorite quotes:
';If you bungle raising your children, I don't think whatever else you do well matters very much.'; Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis:
Trial and error. If your baby is hysterical and you don't know why, go through trial and error until you get the answer. Hungry...tried it no.....dirty nappy.....no......tired.....no.......pai鈥?ie colic, constipation, needs to burp......cold or hot?
Just go through the usual suspects and give each one a good go. Also thinking about the time might help you, for example, your baby might not take the breast or the bottle and you might think they are not hungry but they may just be fussy and need you to sing in a soothing voice or to rock them gently to take the bottle.
Sometimes when they are really hysterical it can really be upsetting, but try and keep calm and you'll find it easier to find the answer. Remember, babies are resilliant little things, they dont break!
Congrats :o) and if you have any probs with breast feeding, go to the la leche league website. www.llli.org
when u are having a stressful problem, or they want to be held all day, cry all day, etc...don't get mad or upset, just remember that that is their only way of communicating anything, and they have only been in this big, new, scary world for a short time. they recognize mom by her voice, her smell, her heartbeat, and so she's the person they feel secure with and insecure without...if you need to get a baby carrier and wear the baby...i would also strongly suggest you get a good book that explains their development as they grow so that you understand where they are mentally at any given time....' what to expect the first year' is a good one and a good reference...but there are others...patience, and love, love, patience...gl, it's wonderful to feel that bond with that tiny part of you in your arms..
My mom told me one thing and boy was I glad I listened! She told me NOT to be quiet when the baby was born. She said not to fuss about the baby being asleep and go on about my Business. That was the biggest help of my life! When babies are small the only time you have to do anything is when they are sleeping. I could vacuum the room while my son was asleep and he wouldn't wake up. This is my favorite piece of advice because believe me you are going to need to do things around the house that make noise! My children are now 7 and 9 and the best sleepers! Good luck hun
My advice would be to listen to all the advice you will receive, but just take bits and pieces of what you want out of it, don't expect that that there are right or wrong answers... I have a 10 week old and being the control freak that I am, i was really stressed for the first couple of weeks as I expected that there should be answers as to why he was or was not doing certain things at certain times, and this wasn't the case, so go with your instint and its usually right, and don't get too caught up in what the ';experts'; say is right or wrong, in theory its pretty simple, for the first few weeks all they want is food and love and clean clothes, so if you can give your new baby that, then thats all that matters!
Kids are very impressionable be careful what you say and do around them
Also fears can be instilled at any age, try to not scare them in any way you dont want you kid to be outrageously afraid of ridiculous things when they get older
like im afraid of having empty space under my bed i guess you could say im afraid of the boogeyman because of a very harmless trick my mom played on my when i was 8 years old i have to now sleep on a frameless bed
Prepare to have vomit, poop, and pee on multiple surfaces such as: couches, beds, floors, chairs, carpet, bathtub, including yourself (clothes, hands, everything).
And as soon as you clean it up (especially vomit) they do again all over the bed, clothes and in their hair.
Most vomit fits happen in the middle of the night.
I took a Child Development class so the number one thing we learn is Never ever ignore your childs crys. even if you think they just want attention, pay attention. It is Erikson's first stage of development of Trust VS Mistrust. you want to build that trust with your baby and soon the baby will start to trust others. that is one of the most important thing you can learn from erikson. look him up and see the other but this sets off a chain reaction. Trust me on this. my major is child development
Everyone will probably tell you this one, but it's important: sleep when the baby sleeps! Everything else can wait!
I wish someone would have told me that during pregnancy my feet would get bigger and stay that way. After 3 kids, my feet are so wide, I have to buy men's 4E width athletic shoes. It's not easy to find a 7 1/2 4E!
Prepare yourself for a total life change... i didnt even notice until now (my son is 4 months old) but i only tend to hang around other friends that have babies... everything you do is revolved around your baby... everyone knows this while being pregnant but you dont realise the extent until you have bub... so my advice would be to prepare your mental state of mind. expect to stay home more...
oh and babies dont tend to have a routine until they are 6-8 weeks old... the first month or so is learning to know your baby. and all they do for the first month is SLEEP! my son slept so much i was bored!!
Congratulation!
Just following your instinct when taking care of your baby.
Take every minutes with your baby with great pleasure. You may find some ideas about preparing things for a newborn in my blog here below.
Again, congratulation!
Labor isn't nearly as scary, hard, or painful as you think it's going to be.
I was absolutely terrified of going into labor, but as soon as you see your baby for the first time, you realize that every single bit of fear, pain, etc. was completely worth it!
Don't be pressured into having visitors or going out, and don't be afraid to accept help if you need it. Sleep and rest whenever you can cos you're going to be soo tired! Congrats :)
Do what works for you and your family. I had a hard time with this and tried to do what I thought I should do, rather than what worked for me. You are Mom, do what you think is right.
Trust your own judgment. Dont let others opinions (like the mil) get to you! It will be really hard at first but gets better and is soooo worth it. Congrats!!!

'I refuse to raise a brat' by Mary lu Rhenner
If you could give life advice to a 16 year old what would it be?
im sixteen %26amp; i was wondering if you had any life advice..everyone who is older always says ';i wish i knew that when i was 16'; so can you tell me stuff lol.idk if you get what i mean though.It can be on school friends life money family ANYTHING!If you could give life advice to a 16 year old what would it be?
You have your whole life in front of you. Focus on your education and have enjoy your teenage years. Don't take anything for granted. Make time for God in your life as well. ----------------------------------------…If you could give life advice to a 16 year old what would it be?
1. Don't go to college right away unless you can pay for it. But get good grades in high school regardless.
2. Go to college to learn about what you want to learn about, not necessarily to start a career. Alot of people have jobs that are completely different than their degrees
3. The nerdy guys are usually the most interesting guys
4. Four years from now high school won't matter
5. Use protection, and have sex only as often as you're comfortable with. Don't assume that a guy will stick around or like you just because you let him in the, um, happy zone.
6. Somewhat related to #5 but guys will not change, especially as they get older. No, not even for you.
7. Have a good time, don't sweat the small stuff, and any other myriad of info you can also get from a motivational poster with a cat on it.
Think about the choices you make now. If you think about it all you really have to do is ask yourself one question. In ten years, will I look back at this event and say ';wow, I wish I had done that ';or will you look at the event and say';wow, I wish I hadn't done that.';
To be a little more specific and example would be cigarettes. In ten years when you might be trying to quit smoking because they are so expensive and probably completely illegal by then how would you answer that question? Or will you be in a dead end job going ';Wow, I wish I had stayed in school.';
So the best advice is to just take a minute to think about how your actions now may change your life later and you will usually find the right path on your own. Most of the people who say that didn't take time to think about the results of the actions they took (or didn't take.)
well, im 20. I am glad to not be 16 anymore. It is so nice being in college and out of high school. just do well in school so that you can go to a good college and not be at a junior college like me. Also, choose your friends carefully. i have been backstabbed so many times by my ';Best friends'; most of them have hooked up with or tried to hook up wiht my boyfriend then harass and spread rumors about me. i was given the advice to have one or two very close gf;s and that as you get older you lose most of your friends and you only end up with the one or two who will stick with you forever. AND use a condom. dont get HPV look up HPV.1 out of 2 men have it. 8 out of 10 women have it. it causes cervical cancer. get the shot NOW. i wish i knew that when i was 16...
Be aware of the fact you don't know as much about life as you think you do. And people trying to talk you out of doing something are usually right. But you can never admit that. Be patient in most everything that's important in life, you have two outcomes, you screw everything up and you get somebody to rescue you. or you really follow that little bit of doubt you are trying to bury, and don't do it to begin with. Most people have a hunch or the feeling somethings not quite right , You can't lose anything from following the hunch.
don't take anyone in your life for granted, because they are there one day, and gone the next
Also... don't take school for granted either, make the most of it, because as soon as you leave you wish you hadn't... and dont take your friends for granted... enoy every waking moment you are around them, life is too short to fight
Life is not all about having sex. Kids every day are having sex when they don't even know what it is. Don't be too much in a hurry to ';grow up.'; Look towards the positives of everything and don't get too upset when things turn out badly for you, because being angry never solves a problem. When you want something bad enough, you will get it eventually, so instead of fearing the bad, desire the good. Don't do what everyone else is doing and don't fall under peer pressure. Only do something when YOU TRULY want to do it, which includes sex, drugs, and drinking. If you want to do it, then do it, but be prepared for whatever consequences come after. I'm not saying there will be, but you never know. Live life optimistically. Keep an open mind about everything and don't be judgmental. Be willing to learn new things and try something new. Learn to live and live to learn.
If you want happiness and you think of happiness, you will have it. ';Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.'; W. Clement Stone
Its not as bad as you think
Even though you think you have no freedom, you DO and this IS the best time of life
Love your body and skin now, even if you hate it you will realise when you are older how good it was
Take care of your skin, dont over tan, moisturize.If you dont you might look like a leather boot not sexy ever.
Hes not worth it if he makes you crazy/cry/isn't interested.
Say no to drugs that you dont know what they are, if you dont know exactly what it is dont touch it
You know that thing that is so unfair and you hate your parents for?
You probably wont remember in 6 years
Unless they are very crap your parents DO want you to have fun, they just want you to be safe so dont be too harsh on them
Act your age, be you, enjoy life while your young. Dont grow up so fast just try to make your experiences as memories and not mistakes or regrets. Have fun live it up but also be smart with it. Choose your friends wisely and realize that everyone is not your friend because we have people that are out to use you and just be a hater surround yourself with real people not people that is gonna be making you do stuff you not comfortable with and always getting you in trouble. Think before you act. Pay attention in class lol at least sometimes try to because you gonna wish you did when you graduate even though a lot of us forget what we learned in class. Make your high school years fun! Dont be in a rush to graduate because when you do you gonna miss out on all the good memories with your classmates. Just be you and have fun.
Stay in school, and do your best. Don't try to be something you're not. Be the best you can be, but don't let it get to your head. Be confident. Don't do anything until you are ready. Let every choice you make be your own. Don't depend too much on money. Always care for others and be kind, it will always come out best for you. Stay away from problems whenever you can and stay on the right path. Not many teenagers like to get advice, so that shows you are open minded, which is a very good thing.
Well, I'm 17, and I just graduated. Two weeks out of high school and I'm already having regrets, sad right? Sure I had decent marks and went out all the time. I just wish I could have been better friends with certain people. It's coming to that point of my life where I know I have to let my friends go out and do what they want with their lives, but I'm finding it hard to let them go. So I sit here, wishing I was 16 again so I could redo the last year of my life, and do it right. Don't be like me and feel that my last year was missing something, make it the best year of your life :)
Really you should soak up everything. You have enough trust that you can do ALMOST anything you want to do, and little enough responsibility to be able to do ALMOST anything you want to do. Also, I know this sucks but do good in school. I have to go back to high school in September because my marks aren't good enough to get into the university programme I want to go into. I'm 20. I wish I knew that when I was your age...
There's so many things one could say.
Stay in school, learn all you can. The more the better, knowledge is true power!
Don't fall for the short term delights in life. More often than not you'll find that just because it's good to you, it's not always good for you.
No matter how life kicks you around, always be good in your heart. Keeping goodness alive inside your heart gives you strength that others can't take away.
It's human nature to look for the bad in a person or situation before they look for the good. Look beyond that and see the good!
Honor your elders, talk with them, you'll be surprised at the things you can learn.
Never listen when some one says something is impossible because it's not! If that were true, I wouldn't be here to answer your question.
In your heart is the answer to what you want and desire in life. Pick a path and throw yourself into it 100%. Stick with it and NEVER give up.
When it comes to guys, never give yourself up to the dick, ***** are a dime a dozen. Only give yourself away to a heart that is true!
The biggest obstacle one faces in life is their own fear. Face them and conquer them. Never let your fears hold you back. More often than not you'll find your fears weren't worth fearing in the first place.
Never lose control of your life or mind. Drugs and alcohol will cause you to lose both.
I hope these will help you as they have helped me in my own life. And thank you for being a person who took the time to ask a serious question on YA. I am happy to answer it!
I wish when I was 16 that someone would have told me that dropping out of school would cost me my kids and home,
Point even if school life is hard with bullies bulling you, falling your classes, not making the cheerleading team or football team. Things will get better. The sooner you start to correct the wrong in your life.
If you don't correct them now, you will have to pay for it when your older.
Start studying, make good grades and then try out for the team. Stand up to a bully by killing them with kindness, Act as if it dose not phase you or that you give a care.Soon they will leave you alone.
Smile and wave when they pass by. Act as if they are you bestfriend. Point they get mad that you waved at them, Just go up and hugh them and say hey bubby how did you like the pasrty last night? Point embarrass them in a kind way.
Fix the problems in your life now, trust in the Lord and put him first and your life will improve.
Don't have sex,do drugs, or go to those crazy parties where you know someone will slip something into your drink in high school.
Don't drop out. Will totally ruin you if you want a decent job.
Stay true to your friends - don't act ';popular'; because they will ***** about you most likely and then your old friends won't take you back
Get good grades but retain a social life. School isn't everything but DO remember that good colleges want you to belong to extra things like organizations, or helping charity, etc.
Try new things before you have no time to try them in college. Try dancing - hip/hop, jazz, etc.
Stay true to yourself and morals. Don't go smoke because it's ';cool';. You will so many of them die early because they screwed up their lungs.
Sorry it's so long. But there's alot to know!
Learn who you are.
I'm incredibly serious.
Learn who you are and don't live off of what other people make you.
I'm not saying bullshit about being ';under the influence';,
or ';don't go mainstream';,
but learn to appreciate yourself and your mind
because when you're that young, that's the most precious thing you can develop.
Also,
never stop learning.
You can stop going to school and never goto college
but never stop learning. especially things you like.
It's important- every last bit of it.
Don't follow the crowd. Make your own decisions based on good common sense.
Don't do drugs. Don't sleep with anyone till you have a ring on your finger and are married. Don't live with a guy.
Don't think because you waited to have sex till you got married you missed anything.
Love your parents, and do good to them.
Take care of them in old age, and love them.
Love God and go to church, get involved with helping people.
Then i tell you again.
I wish i was your age and know what i do know now. lol
I've heard this so much when i was younger, and i still hear that from older people.
And despite other people giving me advice, i would barely follow them in practice. Cause you only learn when you live it. You can't truly learn things in advance just from others advice, that's the sad true.
And this is my advice :x
This is a REALLY good question. I would say thaat...the things that seem like a SUPER big deal right now are not going to be a few years down the line. Don't stress out about things like school, friends, or boys because I promise you, these problems are going to be so insignificant down the line. I remember in high school getting so worked up about something bitchy a friend had said about me, or a boy ignoring me or anything like that but now I am laughing at myself. I caused myself so much more stress than was really necessary. If I could go back in time I would have tried enjoying life more because it is a really special age to be at and you should take full advantage of these years. Also, I read in your profile that you are really scared of losing your friends after high school. I have one year of university under my belt and when I came back home in April, nothing had changed. Your friends will always be there if you love them. I was super worried about that, but it wasn't like I thought it would be. My best friend is STILL my all-time bestie, not going to change EVER, and out group of friends has not changed at all. Pleeease don't worry about this! I cried A LOT last summer thinking that it would be my last time with friends. Ahhh such a good question!
I'm also 16. All I can say from what I've learned/seen through my years in life is to keep your head up and ears open. You don't know what each day will bring so being prepared is the only thing you can do. Don't do drugs ect.. all the mommy and daddy things you've heard all your life. that's the only advice one can give. No one knows what we'll say 30 years from now when we turn back saying ';I wish I knew that when i was 16';. When we do it'll be completely different from what they said to us.
Wow, intresting question. There are so many things to say but not enough time or room to say them. I could say that you have the right attitude, search for excellence. Enlightenment is not just for the bhuddists. Know this: the answer is simple, it exists all around you and it will all make sense in the end. Try to see the world for what it REALLY is and not just your perception of it.
other intresting things to ponder: there is 360 degrees behind the truth, each one unique in its own way. The key to world peace lies with each individual. thats all i got.
live life to the fullest! don't worry about being the coolest. always think positively. do your best in whatever you're doing. think about your future. RESPECT YOURSELF %26amp; your body. don't obsess over any guy. don't let anybody tell you who you are or who you're supposed to be. know what you deserve %26amp; don't you dare settle for less. practice good habits. respect your elders. take any good chance you get. volunteer. you're young still, don't be too serious. smile more often :)
WEAR A CONDOM hahah u dont want any kids. if u do drugs make sure u no the side effects. if u drink dont drink and drive. make sure u no were your dudes been. do good in school go to college and get a good job that pays wells. friends are forever but boyfriend/girlsfriends are just temp. in life u only got 2 things family and religion. life is tough and if u get down and sad if u mess up dont worry get up and try again. cutting n stuff dont solve any problems it just causes more. yah thats all i got. hope this helps
welll as a 17 year old i do :p
just dont take your freedom for granted.
try your hardest in school, who cares if you'll look stupid. the people who dont try will look the most stupid in the long run.
dont stress out about little things.
dont do stupid things like drink. youve got the whole of your life for that.
it's not worth it.
dont be pressured to do what you dont want to.
trust your mum, they do know whats best for the most part. they are just looking out for you :)
hmmmmmm what else?
i wish i knew a while ago that just trust your gut instincts, theyre ALWAYS right.
think about things fully before you do it.
and remember, whatever is meant to be will be. fate is awesome :)
i think thats it :)
Life sucks, no matter who you are or what you have. So, do not feel that you are unfairly put upon, or that your life could be better if only you had this or that. Rich people hate their lives as much as the rest of us. The only way to combat this problem is to live by design, not chance. Don't wait for your ship to come in, because it will leave you sitting on the dock until you die. If you want anything, you have to get up and make it happen. Your life will be a good as you make it, but remember, life still sucks. You will never come to a point that you cannot find anything to whine about. You must simply choose not to whine.
Go on get your College education even if you have to claw your way through by your fingernails..
.
If you have any thoughts about joining the service darn sure get your B.S. degree first and take ROTC, in some form so you can go in as an officer.
.
Know I am going to get thumbs down from the guys for this one:
Don't do it just because all your friends are doing it.
Guys go out with easy girls for one reason and it ain't marriage and kids.
And if a guy is telling you he loves but blah, blah blah just remember we were using those same lines in girls when I was a teenager to get girls in bed with us.
Steer clear of brown nosers, back stabbers and suck a$$es: They aren't your friends. They'll knife you in the back in a heart beat.
live life like you have no tomorrow, dont have regrets, dont worry about what will happen if.... just do it and have fun. you can only experiment whe you are the age you are, when you grow up you will have a job to worry about and too many risk factors to go with it..,
ok what i think u should do is chill. ur sixteen dnt worry about jobs focus on school. oh nd get involved in it like sports nd stuff. k hangout with friends and meet new ones. dnt get caught up in a relationship cus no matter what iits most likely gonna end. so stay single and keep them boyz wanting some haha. nd if ur a virgin dnt let sum dickweed get in ur pants unless u know for a fact he's the one. dnt get fooled. umm if u wanna kno more let me kno kk
I think about these things throughout my daily life, no matter what it is these these always apply.
';God will never give you anything you cant handle';.
';Live, Love, Laugh';
Don't regret anything because at the time its what you wanted.
You cant live your life without making mistakes, remember them, learn from them and apply them in your future.
Be independent, don't wait for things to happen, make them happen for yourself.
You are responsible for your happiness no one else so don't let people steal your joy.
Don't be afraid of life but use caution when necessary.
Follow your instincts and watch for red flags.
Question everything, including authority.
Don't believe everything you hear.
Let the people you love know that you love them.
Be happy with yourself before you become attached to another.
Do the right thing.
Life.
it goes on.
people die, people cry. babies are born and fortune 500 companies fail.
Everyday is a gift, even if it sucks @ss.
dont make promises you cant keep. they'll haunt you in the end.
no one is perfect, so give them a second chance. forgive but dont forget. so you wont be mistreated. if someone isnt treating you right, seperate yourself from that person.
surround yourself with the ones you love. and always be laughing.
You have your whole life in front of you. Focus on your education and have enjoy your teenage years. Don't take anything for granted. Make time for God in your life as well. ----------------------------------------…If you could give life advice to a 16 year old what would it be?
1. Don't go to college right away unless you can pay for it. But get good grades in high school regardless.
2. Go to college to learn about what you want to learn about, not necessarily to start a career. Alot of people have jobs that are completely different than their degrees
3. The nerdy guys are usually the most interesting guys
4. Four years from now high school won't matter
5. Use protection, and have sex only as often as you're comfortable with. Don't assume that a guy will stick around or like you just because you let him in the, um, happy zone.
6. Somewhat related to #5 but guys will not change, especially as they get older. No, not even for you.
7. Have a good time, don't sweat the small stuff, and any other myriad of info you can also get from a motivational poster with a cat on it.
Think about the choices you make now. If you think about it all you really have to do is ask yourself one question. In ten years, will I look back at this event and say ';wow, I wish I had done that ';or will you look at the event and say';wow, I wish I hadn't done that.';
To be a little more specific and example would be cigarettes. In ten years when you might be trying to quit smoking because they are so expensive and probably completely illegal by then how would you answer that question? Or will you be in a dead end job going ';Wow, I wish I had stayed in school.';
So the best advice is to just take a minute to think about how your actions now may change your life later and you will usually find the right path on your own. Most of the people who say that didn't take time to think about the results of the actions they took (or didn't take.)
well, im 20. I am glad to not be 16 anymore. It is so nice being in college and out of high school. just do well in school so that you can go to a good college and not be at a junior college like me. Also, choose your friends carefully. i have been backstabbed so many times by my ';Best friends'; most of them have hooked up with or tried to hook up wiht my boyfriend then harass and spread rumors about me. i was given the advice to have one or two very close gf;s and that as you get older you lose most of your friends and you only end up with the one or two who will stick with you forever. AND use a condom. dont get HPV look up HPV.1 out of 2 men have it. 8 out of 10 women have it. it causes cervical cancer. get the shot NOW. i wish i knew that when i was 16...
Be aware of the fact you don't know as much about life as you think you do. And people trying to talk you out of doing something are usually right. But you can never admit that. Be patient in most everything that's important in life, you have two outcomes, you screw everything up and you get somebody to rescue you. or you really follow that little bit of doubt you are trying to bury, and don't do it to begin with. Most people have a hunch or the feeling somethings not quite right , You can't lose anything from following the hunch.
don't take anyone in your life for granted, because they are there one day, and gone the next
Also... don't take school for granted either, make the most of it, because as soon as you leave you wish you hadn't... and dont take your friends for granted... enoy every waking moment you are around them, life is too short to fight
Life is not all about having sex. Kids every day are having sex when they don't even know what it is. Don't be too much in a hurry to ';grow up.'; Look towards the positives of everything and don't get too upset when things turn out badly for you, because being angry never solves a problem. When you want something bad enough, you will get it eventually, so instead of fearing the bad, desire the good. Don't do what everyone else is doing and don't fall under peer pressure. Only do something when YOU TRULY want to do it, which includes sex, drugs, and drinking. If you want to do it, then do it, but be prepared for whatever consequences come after. I'm not saying there will be, but you never know. Live life optimistically. Keep an open mind about everything and don't be judgmental. Be willing to learn new things and try something new. Learn to live and live to learn.
If you want happiness and you think of happiness, you will have it. ';Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.'; W. Clement Stone
Its not as bad as you think
Even though you think you have no freedom, you DO and this IS the best time of life
Love your body and skin now, even if you hate it you will realise when you are older how good it was
Take care of your skin, dont over tan, moisturize.If you dont you might look like a leather boot not sexy ever.
Hes not worth it if he makes you crazy/cry/isn't interested.
Say no to drugs that you dont know what they are, if you dont know exactly what it is dont touch it
You know that thing that is so unfair and you hate your parents for?
You probably wont remember in 6 years
Unless they are very crap your parents DO want you to have fun, they just want you to be safe so dont be too harsh on them
Act your age, be you, enjoy life while your young. Dont grow up so fast just try to make your experiences as memories and not mistakes or regrets. Have fun live it up but also be smart with it. Choose your friends wisely and realize that everyone is not your friend because we have people that are out to use you and just be a hater surround yourself with real people not people that is gonna be making you do stuff you not comfortable with and always getting you in trouble. Think before you act. Pay attention in class lol at least sometimes try to because you gonna wish you did when you graduate even though a lot of us forget what we learned in class. Make your high school years fun! Dont be in a rush to graduate because when you do you gonna miss out on all the good memories with your classmates. Just be you and have fun.
Stay in school, and do your best. Don't try to be something you're not. Be the best you can be, but don't let it get to your head. Be confident. Don't do anything until you are ready. Let every choice you make be your own. Don't depend too much on money. Always care for others and be kind, it will always come out best for you. Stay away from problems whenever you can and stay on the right path. Not many teenagers like to get advice, so that shows you are open minded, which is a very good thing.
Well, I'm 17, and I just graduated. Two weeks out of high school and I'm already having regrets, sad right? Sure I had decent marks and went out all the time. I just wish I could have been better friends with certain people. It's coming to that point of my life where I know I have to let my friends go out and do what they want with their lives, but I'm finding it hard to let them go. So I sit here, wishing I was 16 again so I could redo the last year of my life, and do it right. Don't be like me and feel that my last year was missing something, make it the best year of your life :)
Really you should soak up everything. You have enough trust that you can do ALMOST anything you want to do, and little enough responsibility to be able to do ALMOST anything you want to do. Also, I know this sucks but do good in school. I have to go back to high school in September because my marks aren't good enough to get into the university programme I want to go into. I'm 20. I wish I knew that when I was your age...
There's so many things one could say.
Stay in school, learn all you can. The more the better, knowledge is true power!
Don't fall for the short term delights in life. More often than not you'll find that just because it's good to you, it's not always good for you.
No matter how life kicks you around, always be good in your heart. Keeping goodness alive inside your heart gives you strength that others can't take away.
It's human nature to look for the bad in a person or situation before they look for the good. Look beyond that and see the good!
Honor your elders, talk with them, you'll be surprised at the things you can learn.
Never listen when some one says something is impossible because it's not! If that were true, I wouldn't be here to answer your question.
In your heart is the answer to what you want and desire in life. Pick a path and throw yourself into it 100%. Stick with it and NEVER give up.
When it comes to guys, never give yourself up to the dick, ***** are a dime a dozen. Only give yourself away to a heart that is true!
The biggest obstacle one faces in life is their own fear. Face them and conquer them. Never let your fears hold you back. More often than not you'll find your fears weren't worth fearing in the first place.
Never lose control of your life or mind. Drugs and alcohol will cause you to lose both.
I hope these will help you as they have helped me in my own life. And thank you for being a person who took the time to ask a serious question on YA. I am happy to answer it!
I wish when I was 16 that someone would have told me that dropping out of school would cost me my kids and home,
Point even if school life is hard with bullies bulling you, falling your classes, not making the cheerleading team or football team. Things will get better. The sooner you start to correct the wrong in your life.
If you don't correct them now, you will have to pay for it when your older.
Start studying, make good grades and then try out for the team. Stand up to a bully by killing them with kindness, Act as if it dose not phase you or that you give a care.Soon they will leave you alone.
Smile and wave when they pass by. Act as if they are you bestfriend. Point they get mad that you waved at them, Just go up and hugh them and say hey bubby how did you like the pasrty last night? Point embarrass them in a kind way.
Fix the problems in your life now, trust in the Lord and put him first and your life will improve.
Don't have sex,do drugs, or go to those crazy parties where you know someone will slip something into your drink in high school.
Don't drop out. Will totally ruin you if you want a decent job.
Stay true to your friends - don't act ';popular'; because they will ***** about you most likely and then your old friends won't take you back
Get good grades but retain a social life. School isn't everything but DO remember that good colleges want you to belong to extra things like organizations, or helping charity, etc.
Try new things before you have no time to try them in college. Try dancing - hip/hop, jazz, etc.
Stay true to yourself and morals. Don't go smoke because it's ';cool';. You will so many of them die early because they screwed up their lungs.
Sorry it's so long. But there's alot to know!
Learn who you are.
I'm incredibly serious.
Learn who you are and don't live off of what other people make you.
I'm not saying bullshit about being ';under the influence';,
or ';don't go mainstream';,
but learn to appreciate yourself and your mind
because when you're that young, that's the most precious thing you can develop.
Also,
never stop learning.
You can stop going to school and never goto college
but never stop learning. especially things you like.
It's important- every last bit of it.
Don't follow the crowd. Make your own decisions based on good common sense.
Don't do drugs. Don't sleep with anyone till you have a ring on your finger and are married. Don't live with a guy.
Don't think because you waited to have sex till you got married you missed anything.
Love your parents, and do good to them.
Take care of them in old age, and love them.
Love God and go to church, get involved with helping people.
Then i tell you again.
I wish i was your age and know what i do know now. lol
I've heard this so much when i was younger, and i still hear that from older people.
And despite other people giving me advice, i would barely follow them in practice. Cause you only learn when you live it. You can't truly learn things in advance just from others advice, that's the sad true.
And this is my advice :x
This is a REALLY good question. I would say thaat...the things that seem like a SUPER big deal right now are not going to be a few years down the line. Don't stress out about things like school, friends, or boys because I promise you, these problems are going to be so insignificant down the line. I remember in high school getting so worked up about something bitchy a friend had said about me, or a boy ignoring me or anything like that but now I am laughing at myself. I caused myself so much more stress than was really necessary. If I could go back in time I would have tried enjoying life more because it is a really special age to be at and you should take full advantage of these years. Also, I read in your profile that you are really scared of losing your friends after high school. I have one year of university under my belt and when I came back home in April, nothing had changed. Your friends will always be there if you love them. I was super worried about that, but it wasn't like I thought it would be. My best friend is STILL my all-time bestie, not going to change EVER, and out group of friends has not changed at all. Pleeease don't worry about this! I cried A LOT last summer thinking that it would be my last time with friends. Ahhh such a good question!
I'm also 16. All I can say from what I've learned/seen through my years in life is to keep your head up and ears open. You don't know what each day will bring so being prepared is the only thing you can do. Don't do drugs ect.. all the mommy and daddy things you've heard all your life. that's the only advice one can give. No one knows what we'll say 30 years from now when we turn back saying ';I wish I knew that when i was 16';. When we do it'll be completely different from what they said to us.

I fired someone today and they took it badly, do you have any advice?
It was a girl in my restaurant. I caught her giving away an item to her friends, and the owner decided to fire her on my report. She cried and bawled so badly and made a scene. I've never felt so horrible in my life. There was no doubt. As a manager, I had to report her, or the theft would've continued.
How do you deal with situations like this.I fired someone today and they took it badly, do you have any advice?
She was stealing, she should have known better. She was crying because she felt like a great injustice was done to her even though she knew she was guilty. Its good that she was fired, because she was stealing, and because this makes the rest of the employees fearful of doing the same thing.I fired someone today and they took it badly, do you have any advice?
Do not Take it Personal, Its Business, One of the harder finer points on being a Good Supervisor, Take it in Stride there man
She was in the wrong. She only screamed so loudly because she was embarrassed to be caught or didn't think she did wrong.
Stealing is wrong, doesn't matter where it happens.
Stealing from a company hurts you! Sure your not the CEO with the golden parachute, your the guy/gal that feels the cutbacks from corporate waste.
Corporate waste is the number one reason I get into arguments with living the party line about unions. Dont' get me wrong (blue collar family on the northwest side of Chicago.. I get unions). What ticks me off is the waste. You see the ruination of everything unions stood for. They stood for the everyman - fair days work - fair days wage. Today they are not like that... It's not my job is basically a union employee war cry. Or how about the leaners club... the 7 supervisors to 1 worker. I could go on %26amp; on.
This corporate waste leads to offshoring. If Ford charges $46 an hr for an employee %26amp; of those employees you have 7 leaners, %26amp; 4 not my jobs, %26amp; the rest are only moving as productively as fast as a turtle %26amp; anyone who moves faster %26amp; more productively is chastised %26amp; the bad guy... = who loses?
America loses. Anyone visiting Detroit can see the bombed out effect of business leaving enmass. What about the daily reports of 100's, 1000's of jobs going overseas?
We chased them off. Not only were we complacent in our lack of quality marketing (how exactly did toyota become such a quality product... answer goes to the actual quality %26amp; screaming from the mountain of the quality.).
We also keep the fat. Not only are we a physically obese country, we tend to keep the fat in our work places. I don't think anyone of us can not think of a single person in their current or past work place who had the entire ';not my job'; mentality %26amp; wouldn't budge, move, ect beyond taking a paycheck at the end of the week. In fact I am willing to bet that that same person confounded you as to what exactly they accomplished to achieve that paycheck.
Not to give you a giant headache, but to help you feel better about your decision.
You did what you had to do, or else you would have been in trouble. I would look at it this way: she put herself in that position and it's her fault she got fired. She knew what she was doing was wrong. It's ok to feel upset about it, but you did the right thing. Hopefully, she'll learn from her mistake.
You did nothing wrong and you did absolutely the right thing.
She was upset because she was caught. She wasn't crying because she was feeling guilty.
You did the right thing and quite possibly saved your own job. No employee stealing is worth keeping around.
You did the right thing and keep on doing what you are doing and good will come to you!
You can not take it persona. I know it is hard not to do so, but this is your job. I work in H%26amp;R and think about it this way. What if this would have been a test to your loyalty to the company, if the girl had been asked to set a situation up and see if you would report it and you didnt then you would have been fired. You always have to look at it as being their job or yours, who's is more important? I terminate on average 20 employees a month, and yes some of them are hard to handle, infact some of them are darn right heart breaking, but the fact is that is what I am there to do. I am there to make the best decisions for my company, and at the end of the day I know that I have done my job and made my company better for it. It is never easy to fire someone but it will come to you, and for just the fact that you care shows that you are a great manager!
Move on. She stole, received the consequence, done. You are in a position where you can't be every ones friend. If you take your job seriously you'll have to come to terms with the fact that this won't be your last time firing someone. Some people get pissed when they're fired others just accept it and especially girls who like to pull the girly, how could you be so cruel tears
You have to stay professional and stand firm. You did the right thing and it will show her what can happen when she properly doesn't do a job. She will be fine and now she knows life takes social skills. Self control is a sign of maturity. She made a scene because she isn't mature. Don't take her problem and make it yours. You don't deserve to feel bad in this situation.
Just move on.You did your job. She'll find a job again.
was she going to pay for it later? if not then u did the right thing. i would feel bad too but just keep telling yourself that its business...better her than you!
You didn't do anything. You did what you had to do and the girl did what she did. Simple as that.
Remain professional...it obviously would make you feel bad as a person to have this employee cry so badly when you terminated her, however, keep in mind she brought it on herself by giving away things. If you are in a managerial position it comes with the territory to have to sometimes fire people and you cannot allow your emotions to show.
Of course you are going to feel bad. You are a human being with compassion,but this girl was stealing and she knew that it was wrong. Its her own fault that she was fired not yours. You did the right thing. Just know that sometimes we all feel sorry for someone that has done something wrong and got caught. Hopefully she has learned a very valuable lesson.
You're fine. You did your job she didn't do hers.
Your job as a manager is to protect the owners assets. You can't feel bad about doing your job. If she broke company policy, then it's not your problem.
You shrug it off and get on with your job. Crying and bawling and making a scene huh? She was probably distracting you from looking in her bag at other stuff she stole. Once a thief.......
Well, first of all, you did the right thing by reporting her. As the manager, you're responsible for the other employees. Not doing your job would be just as bad as the initial problem (her theft).
Keep reminding yourself of that whenever this whole situation starts to get to you. Just keep thinking, ';I did the right thing.'; It'll help.
This might be a good time for you to focus on what the people who are still working there are doing properly. Some genuine, earned praise can really cheer up the work environment and make everybody feel a little better about this whole thing.
laugh out at them and say NOW LET THIS BE A LESSON TO ALL OF YA
You handled it prefectly. Basically she was stealing and you did your job by reporting it. if she would've been doing her job she wouldn't have had time to do this. It's called work for a reason. I am proud that you stood up and did the right thing. Few people do that these days
The owner gets the last say. He/she could have just given the girl a warning, but maybe he/she knew something more, and this girl was doing something else. Being fired sucks, but she should have been clear about the rules, or she could have offered to pay for that item from her paycheck.
I would have looked the other way and ignored it, its not like she was stealing money
I was a manager for over 20 years. Its never easy to fire anyone. The first one is always the hardest, or was it the second? or third? or eleventh?
It'll never be easy.
How do you deal with situations like this.I fired someone today and they took it badly, do you have any advice?
She was stealing, she should have known better. She was crying because she felt like a great injustice was done to her even though she knew she was guilty. Its good that she was fired, because she was stealing, and because this makes the rest of the employees fearful of doing the same thing.I fired someone today and they took it badly, do you have any advice?
Do not Take it Personal, Its Business, One of the harder finer points on being a Good Supervisor, Take it in Stride there man
She was in the wrong. She only screamed so loudly because she was embarrassed to be caught or didn't think she did wrong.
Stealing is wrong, doesn't matter where it happens.
Stealing from a company hurts you! Sure your not the CEO with the golden parachute, your the guy/gal that feels the cutbacks from corporate waste.
Corporate waste is the number one reason I get into arguments with living the party line about unions. Dont' get me wrong (blue collar family on the northwest side of Chicago.. I get unions). What ticks me off is the waste. You see the ruination of everything unions stood for. They stood for the everyman - fair days work - fair days wage. Today they are not like that... It's not my job is basically a union employee war cry. Or how about the leaners club... the 7 supervisors to 1 worker. I could go on %26amp; on.
This corporate waste leads to offshoring. If Ford charges $46 an hr for an employee %26amp; of those employees you have 7 leaners, %26amp; 4 not my jobs, %26amp; the rest are only moving as productively as fast as a turtle %26amp; anyone who moves faster %26amp; more productively is chastised %26amp; the bad guy... = who loses?
America loses. Anyone visiting Detroit can see the bombed out effect of business leaving enmass. What about the daily reports of 100's, 1000's of jobs going overseas?
We chased them off. Not only were we complacent in our lack of quality marketing (how exactly did toyota become such a quality product... answer goes to the actual quality %26amp; screaming from the mountain of the quality.).
We also keep the fat. Not only are we a physically obese country, we tend to keep the fat in our work places. I don't think anyone of us can not think of a single person in their current or past work place who had the entire ';not my job'; mentality %26amp; wouldn't budge, move, ect beyond taking a paycheck at the end of the week. In fact I am willing to bet that that same person confounded you as to what exactly they accomplished to achieve that paycheck.
Not to give you a giant headache, but to help you feel better about your decision.
You did what you had to do, or else you would have been in trouble. I would look at it this way: she put herself in that position and it's her fault she got fired. She knew what she was doing was wrong. It's ok to feel upset about it, but you did the right thing. Hopefully, she'll learn from her mistake.
You did nothing wrong and you did absolutely the right thing.
She was upset because she was caught. She wasn't crying because she was feeling guilty.
You did the right thing and quite possibly saved your own job. No employee stealing is worth keeping around.
You did the right thing and keep on doing what you are doing and good will come to you!
You can not take it persona. I know it is hard not to do so, but this is your job. I work in H%26amp;R and think about it this way. What if this would have been a test to your loyalty to the company, if the girl had been asked to set a situation up and see if you would report it and you didnt then you would have been fired. You always have to look at it as being their job or yours, who's is more important? I terminate on average 20 employees a month, and yes some of them are hard to handle, infact some of them are darn right heart breaking, but the fact is that is what I am there to do. I am there to make the best decisions for my company, and at the end of the day I know that I have done my job and made my company better for it. It is never easy to fire someone but it will come to you, and for just the fact that you care shows that you are a great manager!
Move on. She stole, received the consequence, done. You are in a position where you can't be every ones friend. If you take your job seriously you'll have to come to terms with the fact that this won't be your last time firing someone. Some people get pissed when they're fired others just accept it and especially girls who like to pull the girly, how could you be so cruel tears
You have to stay professional and stand firm. You did the right thing and it will show her what can happen when she properly doesn't do a job. She will be fine and now she knows life takes social skills. Self control is a sign of maturity. She made a scene because she isn't mature. Don't take her problem and make it yours. You don't deserve to feel bad in this situation.
Just move on.You did your job. She'll find a job again.
was she going to pay for it later? if not then u did the right thing. i would feel bad too but just keep telling yourself that its business...better her than you!
You didn't do anything. You did what you had to do and the girl did what she did. Simple as that.
Remain professional...it obviously would make you feel bad as a person to have this employee cry so badly when you terminated her, however, keep in mind she brought it on herself by giving away things. If you are in a managerial position it comes with the territory to have to sometimes fire people and you cannot allow your emotions to show.
Of course you are going to feel bad. You are a human being with compassion,but this girl was stealing and she knew that it was wrong. Its her own fault that she was fired not yours. You did the right thing. Just know that sometimes we all feel sorry for someone that has done something wrong and got caught. Hopefully she has learned a very valuable lesson.
You're fine. You did your job she didn't do hers.

Can you give me some advice for going to a new school next year? (I'll be a 9th grader)?
I have gone to one Lutheran school all my life until now. None of my friends or people I know are going to my high school next year, which is also private. Well ok, my 16 year old sister goes there. Any advice to making new friends and stuff? thanks!Can you give me some advice for going to a new school next year? (I'll be a 9th grader)?
OMG SAME HERE! next year i am going to a school and i will be in 9th grade too! None of my friends are going because there parents wont let them because they say it is a bad school but whatev. So i am going all by myself to a new school not to mention first year of highschool. We both have to admit it is going to be a little scary but we got to be ourselves. My plan is when i get there i will sit beside some people in homeroom and start to introduce myself and get to know others, then i will meet there friends. Also maybe your sister can introduce you to some people and you can ask her for advice on were classes are and stuff, cause i think i am going to get lost in my school haha.
so basically lets just go in confident and proud of who we are. First thing to do is talk to someone dont sit alone in a corner afraid to socialize, talk to people and then you will make friends in no time, after that were gonna be all set!Can you give me some advice for going to a new school next year? (I'll be a 9th grader)?
Just be yourself. Obviously you've heard that before. but since its a new school, it'll be best to set the way you want people to see you as from the very start. Be nice and kind to every one, check out the environment (the little groups, who goes out with who, etc) Be sure to be very careful with who you tell what. Its a new school and everyone will be a stranger for a while, so if on the first day you see that you already don't like someone, it'll be best to keep that to yourself for a while. Also, don't get involved in previous drama. If you make 2 new friends that have had problems before, don't choose sides and don't get involved. You want to be liked for the next 4 years, not hated. But like i said, remember to be yourself.
Hope that helped :)
dont physc yourself out, its not as difficult as you think
my freshmen year i went to a school in a new state where i didnt know anything, and all the rules were so much stricter than what i was use to.
you will get use to it, but you wont like it.

It's generally considered good advice that you shouldn't let other people tell you what to think (or act)
Why should it be any different with religous beliefs?It's generally considered good advice that you shouldn't let other people tell you what to think (or act)
I think you are correct.It's generally considered good advice that you shouldn't let other people tell you what to think (or act)
agreed, discover your path on your own.
as a Christian, though, we pray that path will someday lead you to God.
All humans have a natural resentment about being told what to do. It comes from our parents having to supervise us constantly when we are young. Then we have to learn to think for ourselves to survive in the World. This creates a struggle.
However, many never get over this resentment. And they cannot take the slightest suggestion or request without acting like they are being told what to do. That is immature.
You have to determine for yourself where you are in regard to this.
I don't agree with that statement actually. I think it is wisdom to learn from others around you that have been thru life's lessons and learned a thing or two. It's always better to take advice than to think that you're so much smarter than all the people who have already been down the road you're on.
My religion doesn't tell me what to do,but it does advise me of the lessons learned by others so that if I am wise, I can avoid the pitfalls.
Where would society be if no one listened to what had been learned by previous generations? We'd be inventing the wheel every 30 years. It is stupid to think that there is nothing to be learned from those who have gone before us.
How many of all the things you know are really yours ? What does generally mean ?
It shouldn't, but it's nice to be with people who share your beliefs and so some accept being told what to think and belief so they can be in the company of like minded persons.
I agree!
I think it's very important for one to come up with their personal spirituality on their own. It's really the only way to go unless your willing to compromise who you really are.
Who's forcing you? Do with your life as you wish. Christians care about your relationship with God, but you have the power not to listen to them.
Agreed...unfortunately, there are those that are required by their faith/religion to try to convert folks to their view(s) however delusional they may be. PEACE!
Doesn't that advice tell you not to listen to that advice?
Uh, that is a funny paradox!
The premise is missing support. Evidence against such being generally accepted as good advice: school systems, laws, legal standards
As long as you follow the laws of the land. Thank God I live in a FREE country!

When people ask you for advice,why does their story always begin with ';my friend?';?
Knowing very well it's themselves they're talking about.When people ask you for advice,why does their story always begin with ';my friend?';?
Because, most of the time it isn't a friend, its them, but they don't want others to know its them. 'Friend' gives them a cover, and they can ask enquire or seek advice, and they don't want to be judged my their actions, they mayt ave doubts or insecurities, which they don't want people to know abt. Or it could be that they are referring to someone..you know and they don't want you to know its them. May be its something they shouldn't be discussing in the first place.When people ask you for advice,why does their story always begin with ';my friend?';?
Well, I have a friend that had the same problem... I think he did it to distantiate himself from the problem.
maybe because experience is the best teacher, as they say..
people tend to give their advices in the form of before the action-during the action-after the action format.. that is... the situation, then the solution, and what happened when they did it...
hope that answers your queries...
They don't always,I never do, but my guess why some people would is the blessed anonymity it would bring.(some people dont want to be wallflowers they want to be the wall in back of the wallflowers.)
I asked a ';my friend'; question once. Because it was about my friend. People do have friends, you know.
That's because they are not confident they don't believe in themselves.

Can you give me some advice on Reverse Mortgage. Are they Good or Bad?
Reverse mortgage is good for older folks of they
- wish to stay in their home
- can't afford to make the mortgage, or need cash to cover expenses.
- don't have any other liquid assets.
It allows you the opportunity to stay in your home, if you acnnot afford to sell and move. Downside is you give up your home when you die, so there is not anything to leave your children if you have them.
Also, the amount you can get is dependent upon your age and health. If you are younger with a long lifespan, they will not allow much out. It is like life insurance in reverse.Can you give me some advice on Reverse Mortgage. Are they Good or Bad?
good for you, bad for those waiting for you to die to take your assets.Can you give me some advice on Reverse Mortgage. Are they Good or Bad?
A reverse mortgage can be a good thing if your home is fully paid up and you want additional money to live on. Basically, what a reverse mortgage does is provide you a payment; all at once, in a single lump sum of cash; or as a regular monthly cash advance; or as a ';creditline'; account that lets you decide when and how much of your available cash is paid to you; or as a combination of these payment methods. You must be at least 62 years of age. There is no repayment of this until you sell your home, die or permanently move out.
The down side of this is that you will be utilizing the equity in your home and it will reduce the amount you will leave your heirs.

a size 3 and that size is not healthy by any means . I think you should reconsider and most ppl that eat healthy are around a size 6 or 7 . you are fine .What size pants in you opinion can i fit into if.....!! advice plz?
You usually lose a whole size by losing anywhere from 15 to 20 pounds. So I would say if you lose 15 pounds, you would be a size 3. The height and weight charts show that you should weigh anywhere from 123 to 136 pounds.

Look at the Yahoo homepage... Do you see that guy in the Yahoo! Autos advertisement box... Doesn't he look a bit like Arnold Schwarzenegger??? I just don't think that grease and oil on him is real...

Is it ok to ask your older sister about first night advice if you are a guy?
I'd think your older sister would be the best person to ask.
She is a girl, after all, and I presume you are dating a girl.Is it ok to ask your older sister about first night advice if you are a guy?
The fact you are asking this question means you aren't comfortable enough to do it in the first place without some sort of external nudge. This would lead me to believe you don't have that sort of relationship with your older sister.
However, here is your nudge. It is perfectly fine.

Mostly we like those who admire us,But your real friend is who tells you your mistakes
Islamic history has all kind of black %26amp; white
One has to be v.carefull specially when he curses some one .Specially the companion of prophet (SAW)
Thats why Many ulma says we better not say any thing ,about the matter of Sahaba .,unless some thing is u sure about.
and good .
B4 saying bad things u must make sure ,Bcoz if that person doesnot deserve the curse ,the curse will be returned to the person who cursed.
We should obstain our tongues from this .What is the best advice you can give me?
- When the world pushes you to your knees youre in the perfect position to pray
- The world is three days: As for yesterday, it has vanished, along with all that was in it. As for tomorrow, you may never see it. As for today, it is yours, so work in it
- Better to avoid the poison altogether then try to heal from the damage it causes.
- The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.
- Whoever follows patients, success follows him. What is the best advice you can give me?
Some quotes which help me:
'pain is temporary, quitting lasts forever'.
'if people are not willing to accept you when you are at your worst, then they do not deserve to know you when you are at your best'.
'be the change you wish to see in the world'.
u already gave us a wonderful advice with the wonderful story u shared
my advice to you: is keep asking allah for guiding you more to the right way

If you could give someone just one piece of weight loss advice to follow, what would it be?
Be realistic.
A lot of advice goes toward telling people to eat less, exercise more, eat certain things, not eat certain things, move at certain times, etc.
But to me, it's about being able to maintain it. And the best way to do that is to allow yourself time to cheat a little bit, or take that one day off from the gym. Too intense too fast, and you won't be able to keep it up.
Best of luck!If you could give someone just one piece of weight loss advice to follow, what would it be?

I am in the market to buy a Chihuahua. Any particular advice you could give?
1. Realize that dogs are not accessories
2. Do your homework on the breed. Toy breeds can have potty problems that they never get over, knee problems, and hip problems. Chi's have a tendency to be hypoglycemic as puppies, so you have to be prepared for that.
3. Chi's can be yippy, biters, and agressive dogs - not good if you have small children around or plan on having any. They are very protective and dislike change.
4. Teacup is not a designation recognized by the Chihuahua club of America. Anyone who tries to sell you a Teacup is a disreputable and irresponsible breeder. The same holds true to 'designer' mixes like 'Chugs'(Chihuahua pugs), 'Chi/Dachs', 'Chiggies'(Chi/Italian Greyhounds) Run from them.
5. Chi's come into rescue organizations regularly. Too many peolpe get them as accessories and then throw them away when they are done with them. Check out breed rescuers, local no-kill shelters, and the classified section of Petfinder to find a dog.
6. Have $1000 dollars accessable at any given time to deal with emergencies. Be ready to spend several hundred dollars upfront for shots, supplies, and getting him/her altered.
7. Buy only from a reputable breeder. DO NOT BUY from a pet shop, a newspaper ad, an internet ad, and internet site, a puppy mill, someone cross country (unless you can personally pick your dog up and visit the breeder), or a backyard or 'oops' breeder. I'll link to an info page on what makes a reputable breeder.
8. Be prepared to keep the dog for 15 years. Your housing will have to be stable enough to allow you to keep him for his entire life. No moving to a 'no pets' apartment in a couple years. No moving back home where dad will say 'get rid of the dog'. No getting larger agressive dogs that could hurt him.
9. Know that the dog should not be left home for more than 3-4 hours on a regular basis. Know that they are indoor dogs who need people around them.
I'll link to a whole bunch of helpful sites that can help you make the best decision possible! Good luck! : )I am in the market to buy a Chihuahua. Any particular advice you could give?
Yes be sure to have the Money to pay for the Chihuahua.I am in the market to buy a Chihuahua. Any particular advice you could give?
They r totally cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First of all, don't buy a puppy from a puppy mill or a pet store. They tend to have a far greater instance of disease and defect. Try checking local animal shelters first. Also check with some local vet offices. Sometimes people will let their vet know that their dog has had puppies and they are looking for good homes for them. You also might check to see if there is a rescue group for the breed that you are looking for. Far too many animals are abandoned or abused and need good homes.
dont. theyre yippy and annoying. get a big dog u can snuggle w/. i have a golden and she was a horrible puppy, but shes the most loving dog ever. if u have to get a small dog, get a pug. theyre cute, but theyre not yippy.
Don't
Law Suit waiting to happen
Do research...are you a dominate person? Can you handle an ';aggressive'; dog. Do you have time to socialize this dog? I don't care for Chihuahua's much...there have only been two Chihuahua's in my 34 yrs that I have liked...one was a deer chihuahua that we owned, and the other was a friends Mexican (apple head) that was a rescue...I know two Chihuahua's now, that would bite if given the chance...if I ever get bit by them, Law Suit here I come...the owners thought it was cute when they would growl and snap at people and now they can't control them.
Chihuahuas are really adorable, but if you have small children, do not get one. My uncle's dog got a lot meaner and jealous towards babies and toddlers as she aged. She would always growl and bark whenever little kids came near her and she was almost close to biting my two-year old cousin.
Please adopt one from a shelter or rescue. Breeeders often overbreed and they are not healthy. And pet stores, like in malls, often buy from breeders.
I have adopted all my ';furbabies'; from www.petfinder.org
They have all been happy, healthy and very lovable.
Good answer chinamom, thats what I was going to suggest get one from a shelter.
i think chihuahuas are wonderful; i had 2 when i was a kid from the time they were 8 weeks old till they died 10 years later.
but now, i think it would be better for you to go to petfinder.com and adopt one. Petfinder seems to have lots of chihuahuas, so much that i wonder if people are buying chihuahuas without knowing anything about the breed.
Please do research on the breed before you adopt or buy. This is an indoor dog, but you should also have a WELL-fenced yard.
make sure your eyesight is good you could do it untold injuries otherwise
Noooooooooooooooo Get a real dog not a mop on a stick!!!!!
Those things are annoying and evil !!! That dog looks at me and glares !!! That is Creepy !!! Weiner dogs are cool !
Yappy, not good with kids and snap alot.
I had one.
Take your time in choosing a baby, make sure that your personalities match up. I got mine from a rescue, and we are a perfect fit.
DONT GO TO A PET STORE!!!
Get one from a breeder, the dogs are always healthier and have better temperaments.
Just remember lots of love!!
Good luck, I hope you find a new friend, who will bring you lots of joy like my Xena did.

If he certainly says, he does not want me anymore. Am I have a right to do anything?

That is a written agreement enforceable in court. If it came from a personal email, he can't pawn it off to the the company if it closes. That could make him personally responsible for one year's wages.

Do you have any advice on comforters!!!????
I need two comforters that are really cheap. It doesn't matter if they are the same kind or not. I really like brights colors and patterns. My favorite colors are orange, blue, yellow, and green. I also am looking for cheap bar stools, booths, and really comfy chairsDo you have any advice on comforters!!!????
I am not sure what you mean by cheap. Many stores have great deals on bedding and furniture particularly at this time of the year because of back to college students. All the flyers in my newspapers from all the big box stores are showing plenty of options for good prices. Check them out.

You should say what you would do to him if he was there with you we love that.
It all depends upon what kind of sexual relationship you have now. If you have never had sex with him then and want to then you can tease him about that.
If you had sex with him and are comfortable with your bodies then tell him what you would do to him if he were there in front of you.
All types of fantasy games come into mind:
You could strip for him, what you would want to do with each body part he has with your mouth. Tie him up and make him beg for it (light bondage)
You could be the ';Pizza Girl'; that delivers what all guys want to eat.
Lots of things come to the mind of a dirty old man.
I remember once I had not seen my (wife) but girlfriend for a long time. We were to meet in a bar and I got there early. She came in and sat at a table not too far away from me. I noticed her after awhile talking to this guy. She had on a very low skirt with garters (white) that were holding up stockings. He was really trying to get my girlfriend away, but then I saw her. She winked at me and I bought her a drink. We ended up rushing out of there so fast and I must have driven a hundred miles an hour home.
It was the best ever.
So hot.

Can you give me advice on the pokemon emerald game?I want to know how to catch Jirachi.?
The best advice I can give you is to practice!!!!
What is the best advice your father gave you ?
do not have sex with any one you would not want to eat breakfast with the rest of your life!!!!What is the best advice your father gave you ?
when i was younger me n him were walking outta a store n i didnt hold the door open for the lady behind me. so when we got to the my dad hit me on the head n was like ';next time u hold the door open for a woman!'; so now i always hold the door open for a woman.
another one he told was that if sumbody asks me a yes or no question answer ';of course!'; or ';of course not!'; cuz then people are more likely not to doubt u. theyll think u really know wat ur talking about.What is the best advice your father gave you ?
';wear good shoes ,you'll thank me later in life';
my dad was a shoe maker ,and insisted we wear
good solid proper shoes that support the feet (not very glamorous) ok as a little tacker ,with no control over what i wore .
however in my teens ,much to my fathers disgust ,i wore stilletos ,even to work ,runing around a concrete floor all day .no probs dad i'm fine ......guess who has had totaly ruined feet and back problems most of their adult life ? and now i need to wear orthodics and solid lace ups!!! wish i'd listened to him !!!.
Dad always said to treat people as I would like to be treated, never lie to your partner and be faithful always-----no matter how he was.Go to church and put God first and you can't fail then. He had some good advise. Too bad I didn't listen until 2 bad marriages..
Don't ask for Dad's approval. I won't always be here. Ask yourself if you can do whatever it is in front of G-d and if you can then go ahead and do it.
My father has always told me that the only stupid thing that you can do is walk away from a situation without learning something from it.
You can't change what you can't control.
Only wise-esque thing he's ever said to me.
my family teases my dad about getting older, so he always says ';age is just mind over matter, if you dont mind, it dont matter';
dont ever give up on your dreams.... also you can laff a woman into bed but u dont need to just be urself lmao.... my dad is my hero
My father was a terrible man and did horrible things so we never got along. Unfortunately, his advice was not normal so the best thing he did was to leave.
Go to school and everything will work out in the end! =)
To sum it up: Work now, play later!
Work hard-pay your rent or house payment first. No one will give it to you (except the Democrats, they love to keep people repressed). He did say that, and wow, was he right.
make sure you always wear clean underwear!! just in case????
and I could never figure out what he meant by '; just in case';!!!
Don't be an idiot.
Be the first one to throw a punch.
don't embarass the family
Don't date anyone you wouldn't want to have children with.
Keep your money in your pants pocket and keep your pants on and you'll be fine.
';if you have to shoot, kill them, you only want one story told';
For future reference, don't bug me for money, I'm not giving you any.
One day at a time.
My Dad always told me If you'r going to do something do it right the first time.
wear a condom.
Actions speak louder than words.
Love God and Trust Him always .
It's quality not quantity!!!
And while driving, watch out for the other guy!!!
Never go out with a man that can beat you up....
You have two hands and a good brain, use them.
Keep your nose clean.
mister ed and dora is right on target with that one

Mental abuse. How do you stand up for yourself and is it ever to late to stop it? Please any advice helpful.?
I've been dealing with my on and off again boyfriend for 3 years.Once I fell in love I've been tolerating alot of things that I shouldn't from him but I always take him back because I love him. Now he's getting worse and worse because he knows I'll get mad for a couple of days but I'll let him come back. Ahnoestly I don't even know if he loves or respects me anymore because of the stuff I've let him get away with.
But my question is once you let someone get away with stuff like running back and fowards between you and other women and things like that and calling you names. Is it ever to late to stand up and save the relationship? And if so then how? Or once someone gets away with so much is it basically over and they'll never have the same respect for you?Mental abuse. How do you stand up for yourself and is it ever to late to stop it? Please any advice helpful.?
It's over....be done with it..be done with him. You obviously want to be with someone who you can love without having him USE that against you...this guy you're with will never ever appreciate you!! You need to get yourself out of this toxic relationship %26amp; be on your own for awhile....you only THINK you love him...deep down, how can you actually LOVE someone who treats you like garbage? This guy has no heart %26amp; he will never come around, even if you tell him exactly how you feel....he doesn't care about your feelings. If he did, he wouldn't be such a jerk!! You've been involved in this situtation for so long that you've come to accept it as
';good enough';. Well, it's not!! Get out before it gets worse!! He may not be physically abusive, but there's no telling if/when he'll cross THAT line too.Mental abuse. How do you stand up for yourself and is it ever to late to stop it? Please any advice helpful.?
If his comments and actions hurt you emotionally then its mental abuse.... think about it...would you say and do those things to someone you loved ?, is your answer NO?, then you have answered your own question, he doesn't love you and definately doesn't respect you, you are his little puppy dog and he is getting a power high controlling you. Have some respect for yourself and walk away for good, cos he sure hasn't got any for you
Get rid of him.....he's taking advantage of your feelings. Especially considering he knows you'll take him back every time he comes crawling back to you....he's having his way with you.
Break it off.....and don't take him back. You can do a lot better than that.
1. It's never too late to save the relationship, but remember, save it if it's worth saving it. keep in mind that a relationship should allow you to grow and mature, and provide you security and happiness.
2. You could save the relationship by mutually agreeing that you will be respecting each other. (but remember, if boyfrind doesn't wan' to change his negative attitudes, it's not your responsibility to mak a saint out of him.) You could only save the relationship if BOTH OF YOU is willing to save it.
3. Don't and NEVER blame yourself for loving and allowing someone to be who they would want to be. you are worthy of being respected. It's just that, your boyfriend is INCAPABLE of valuing the love and understanding that you are capable of giving.
* i think you are very capable of loving, the problem is, as how you stated your problem, it's your boyfriend WHO IS THE PROBLEM. choose to be happy. You are worthy of the best things in life.
Playing alot of head games with you because he knows you love him is mental abuse. You are in an unhealthy relationship. Stand up for yourself and have enough respect and love for yourself to walk away and never look back. You deserve better. It won't change. Just walk away, you can do it.
do i even have to tell u drop him like its hott

Do head exercises by turning your head. Also wiggle your jaw back and forth. That should help.

What is the best advice you can give to someone studying for a Ph.D. in History?
Start writing at the beginning of your PhD don't leave it until the end. Use referencing software like endnote to make writing and storing your references easier. If you hit a lull and think you can't carry on (and you will, everyone does!) just remember a PhD is a test of perseverance, you will get out of the lull and have more great ideas. Keep reading. :-)

The second option but do not capitalize ';A'; or ';Position';
Only capitalize ';A'; when it begins a sentence. Also, position in a common noun so that should not be capitalized either. (Actually, you can lowercase project assistant also, but it would be acceptable either way)

What Products could you not live without / can't live with... trying to do my registry looking for advice!!!!
Any info on where I can find the good products or why I should avoid others would be appreciated!!
I have done my research and have a some picks already; just wondering what real world experiance people have had with baby products
I am 17 weeks pregnant with my first and am not finding out the sex.What Products could you not live without / can't live with... trying to do my registry looking for advice!!!!
here's some practical (not necessarily needs, but I'd never want to live without) Disposable changing pads made by Huggies. They are the greatest invention. Keep them handy for sanitary restaurant changes, unexpected car changes, visiting family/friend changes. Also, diaper duckies (available at Target for sure) they are smaller, fit right into your diaper bag, rubber duckies with a blue tubular container that holds a roll of bags for disposal of diapers. The plastic bags are convenient for everywhere. They keep the diaper smell in the bag and make clean up super easy. (No diaper geanie needed) PLUS the duck design on top helps calm fussy babies while being changed. Also, Wet-Ones face and hand wipes. I keep them everywhere. THey're good for a quick clean up on changing tables/pads, counter tops, as well as messy dirty hands and faces. It makes it so much easier to keep things sanitary and clean while caring for a baby. Those are my can't live withouts. They're inexpensive and the more you have the better.... oh and... congratulations!What Products could you not live without / can't live with... trying to do my registry looking for advice!!!!
My daughter would be STARVING when she woke up, and would go from sleeping to screaming in 2 seconds. My life saver was this product from Babies R Us-it was a bottle cooler and warmer that you put in the nursery (or wherever). You make the bottle at night, and let it sit in the fridge for like 2-4 hours, I think, then, you can put it in the cooler (it has a section that you freeze beforehand) and it will last overnight. When the baby wakes up, you put the bottle in the steamer for like 15 seconds and PERFECTO-bottle is ready. It was the best thing I ever used!
if you live in a cold area definitely get one of the fleece car seat covers.no need for a jacket for baby.simply zip it up and when the baby inevitably falls asleep in the car and you bring them in the house ,just unzip and they wont overheat...and you wont disturb them either!
I had my first child and also had no idea what to ask for in my registry. Here are some ideas.
Choose a feeding system. Don't worry about a bottle warmer or sterilizer, but pick out a set of bottles (you don't want a bunch of mismatched ones it could confuse the baby, and I was always switching nipples and caps between bottles). I breastfed my son for the first 6 months, and when I went to work he used Playtex Premium Nurser system. They use disposable liners, so you're not always washing the whole bottle. They helped my son keep nursing when I got home because they're slow-flow silicone nipples. The large bottles are much better than the small ones because the baby can use them when he/she grows bigger and eats more. My son still drinks from these bottles at 11 months when he's not using a sippy cup.
Take him all the diapers you can get... but only open one pack at a time so you can take them back for a bigger size if you need to.
Don't get a wipe warmer, it burns a bunch of the wipes on the bottom and it's not necessary. Warm them in your hands before a diaper change if you're worried they will be cold.
You can never get enough sleepers. I was confused at first about all the different styles of clothes, but in the beginning sleepers are the best thing because they are just one piece covering your whole baby, s/he can wear them all day and all night. Get at least 7 to 10 so you can go a few days without doing laundry--you wont have time for laundry every day.
I had a diaper genie, but i never got the hang of it and always just used a big trash can with a lid and changed it often.
A changing table is not totally necessary, but is sure a big help and I loved mine! My son has just now outgrown it. I reccommed one.
When your baby is a newborn s/he won't have a big interest in toys, but s/he will grow in to them. A Mobile might be of interest to him/her, something that lights up and plays gentile music.
I always wished I had gotten one of those travel systems, where the car seat detatches as a baby carrier and that becomes the stroller seat too. Your baby will go to sleep all the time at first, especially in the car, and when you're going out you don't want to wake him/her to put him/her into the stroller. That would have been really convenient.
One thing I loved was the pack-and-play. I used the top bassinet on top as a downstairs crib, and when my son got too big for that its also a play pen. He still uses that.
Hope this all helps. Congratulations, and good luck!
I got pretty much all the basics from my shower, and it really helped a lot. I had no idea what to put on either, since it was my first, but a friend helped me, and we did pretty good. Here are some of my suggestions, I'm sure you have already thought of most.
* Swing - I had the travel size, fisher price w/ music and a couple toys and a mirror - used it A LOT!
* Stroller w/ carrier - I LOVE IT!
* Musical mobile for crib - not on my registry, but someone bought as a gift for me - fisher price classical chorus and lights - my daughter still uses it to this day (she's 2 now)
* baby monitor - a mid priced one, the cheap ones don't work
* high chair - one that folds up
other basics -
bottles
onesies - some of all sizes
diapers - newborn and size 1
wipes
bath tub
bath supplies (lotion, oil, wash, nail clippers)
towels
washcloths
bibs
burp cloths
pacifiers
thermometer
nose sucker thingy
crib mattress pads (2)
crib sheets
crib set (comforter, skirt, etc.)
bassinet pads
bassinet sheets
lap changing pads
receiving blankets
some thicker, bigger blankets
sleepers
I don't like my diaper pail - it was a gift, not chosen by me - just safety 1st from walmart. It always falls apart and doesn't do anything with the smell. May I recommend a trash can and some lysol?! lol
My registry was done at Walmart, so that's where the majority of my gifts were from. All of the bigger things I have had no problems with. Stroller was Graco, high chair was Evenflo.
You sound like you are doing a great job planning ahead. I had lots of light green and yellow, since I didn't find out the sex either. Gives you an excuse to go shopping after the baby is born, for some blue or pink stuff! Congrats, and good luck with everything!
Diapers, You don't need the baby comforters because you are not supposed to use them with baby, bottles if you are not breastfeeding, a breast pump if you are breastfeeding, baby blankets the receiving blanket kind are great and can do double triple or more duty they make great burp cloths way better than the actual burp cloths. Green and yellow are neutral colors for sleepers blankets etc. since you will not know the gender in advance
You dont need 3/4 of the stuff out there. Things you do need include a car seat, a baby bath tub, diapers, wipes, a stroller, a crib, sheets and blankets and clothing.
You dont need a diaper genie. They are more trouble then they are worth. Just get a pail with a lid.
one zee's and spit towels you can never have enough. also Diapers and instead of a diaper Genie get a diaper disposal can that closes and you can use normal garbage bags for. Diaper Geanies get expensive. also a bottle warmer is great. ohh and cordless monitors.'
OMG, TWO WORDS
';DIAPER GENIE';
After that, the things that I used the most were our carseat, our bassinet, our baby wash tub, Balmex, the nasal aspirator the hospital gives you, wipes (lots of those - we love the CVS Soft Cloth ones in scented), Halo Sleep Sacks, a couple of receiving blankets, a binky or two, and seriously, Gerber footie pajamas that zip, not snap (those snaps can be h*ll at 2AM).
We loved shopping at Babies R Us too... They have EVERYTHING you could dream of...
Congrats on your little one!

here's some practical (not necessarily needs, but I'd never want to live without) Disposable changing pads made by Huggies. They are the greatest invention. Keep them handy for sanitary restaurant changes, unexpected car changes, visiting family/friend changes. Also, diaper duckies (available at Target for sure) they are smaller, fit right into your diaper bag, rubber duckies with a blue tubular container that holds a roll of bags for disposal of diapers. The plastic bags are convenient for everywhere. They keep the diaper smell in the bag and make clean up super easy. (No diaper geanie needed) PLUS the duck design on top helps calm fussy babies while being changed. Also, Wet-Ones face and hand wipes. I keep them everywhere. THey're good for a quick clean up on changing tables/pads, counter tops, as well as messy dirty hands and faces. It makes it so much easier to keep things sanitary and clean while caring for a baby. Those are my can't live withouts. They're inexpensive and the more you have the better.... oh and... congratulations!What Products could you not live without / can't live with... trying to do my registry looking for advice!!!!
My daughter would be STARVING when she woke up, and would go from sleeping to screaming in 2 seconds. My life saver was this product from Babies R Us-it was a bottle cooler and warmer that you put in the nursery (or wherever). You make the bottle at night, and let it sit in the fridge for like 2-4 hours, I think, then, you can put it in the cooler (it has a section that you freeze beforehand) and it will last overnight. When the baby wakes up, you put the bottle in the steamer for like 15 seconds and PERFECTO-bottle is ready. It was the best thing I ever used!
if you live in a cold area definitely get one of the fleece car seat covers.no need for a jacket for baby.simply zip it up and when the baby inevitably falls asleep in the car and you bring them in the house ,just unzip and they wont overheat...and you wont disturb them either!
I had my first child and also had no idea what to ask for in my registry. Here are some ideas.
Choose a feeding system. Don't worry about a bottle warmer or sterilizer, but pick out a set of bottles (you don't want a bunch of mismatched ones it could confuse the baby, and I was always switching nipples and caps between bottles). I breastfed my son for the first 6 months, and when I went to work he used Playtex Premium Nurser system. They use disposable liners, so you're not always washing the whole bottle. They helped my son keep nursing when I got home because they're slow-flow silicone nipples. The large bottles are much better than the small ones because the baby can use them when he/she grows bigger and eats more. My son still drinks from these bottles at 11 months when he's not using a sippy cup.
Take him all the diapers you can get... but only open one pack at a time so you can take them back for a bigger size if you need to.
Don't get a wipe warmer, it burns a bunch of the wipes on the bottom and it's not necessary. Warm them in your hands before a diaper change if you're worried they will be cold.
You can never get enough sleepers. I was confused at first about all the different styles of clothes, but in the beginning sleepers are the best thing because they are just one piece covering your whole baby, s/he can wear them all day and all night. Get at least 7 to 10 so you can go a few days without doing laundry--you wont have time for laundry every day.
I had a diaper genie, but i never got the hang of it and always just used a big trash can with a lid and changed it often.
A changing table is not totally necessary, but is sure a big help and I loved mine! My son has just now outgrown it. I reccommed one.
When your baby is a newborn s/he won't have a big interest in toys, but s/he will grow in to them. A Mobile might be of interest to him/her, something that lights up and plays gentile music.
I always wished I had gotten one of those travel systems, where the car seat detatches as a baby carrier and that becomes the stroller seat too. Your baby will go to sleep all the time at first, especially in the car, and when you're going out you don't want to wake him/her to put him/her into the stroller. That would have been really convenient.
One thing I loved was the pack-and-play. I used the top bassinet on top as a downstairs crib, and when my son got too big for that its also a play pen. He still uses that.
Hope this all helps. Congratulations, and good luck!
I got pretty much all the basics from my shower, and it really helped a lot. I had no idea what to put on either, since it was my first, but a friend helped me, and we did pretty good. Here are some of my suggestions, I'm sure you have already thought of most.
* Swing - I had the travel size, fisher price w/ music and a couple toys and a mirror - used it A LOT!
* Stroller w/ carrier - I LOVE IT!
* Musical mobile for crib - not on my registry, but someone bought as a gift for me - fisher price classical chorus and lights - my daughter still uses it to this day (she's 2 now)
* baby monitor - a mid priced one, the cheap ones don't work
* high chair - one that folds up
other basics -
bottles
onesies - some of all sizes
diapers - newborn and size 1
wipes
bath tub
bath supplies (lotion, oil, wash, nail clippers)
towels
washcloths
bibs
burp cloths
pacifiers
thermometer
nose sucker thingy
crib mattress pads (2)
crib sheets
crib set (comforter, skirt, etc.)
bassinet pads
bassinet sheets
lap changing pads
receiving blankets
some thicker, bigger blankets
sleepers
I don't like my diaper pail - it was a gift, not chosen by me - just safety 1st from walmart. It always falls apart and doesn't do anything with the smell. May I recommend a trash can and some lysol?! lol
My registry was done at Walmart, so that's where the majority of my gifts were from. All of the bigger things I have had no problems with. Stroller was Graco, high chair was Evenflo.
You sound like you are doing a great job planning ahead. I had lots of light green and yellow, since I didn't find out the sex either. Gives you an excuse to go shopping after the baby is born, for some blue or pink stuff! Congrats, and good luck with everything!
Diapers, You don't need the baby comforters because you are not supposed to use them with baby, bottles if you are not breastfeeding, a breast pump if you are breastfeeding, baby blankets the receiving blanket kind are great and can do double triple or more duty they make great burp cloths way better than the actual burp cloths. Green and yellow are neutral colors for sleepers blankets etc. since you will not know the gender in advance
You dont need 3/4 of the stuff out there. Things you do need include a car seat, a baby bath tub, diapers, wipes, a stroller, a crib, sheets and blankets and clothing.
You dont need a diaper genie. They are more trouble then they are worth. Just get a pail with a lid.
one zee's and spit towels you can never have enough. also Diapers and instead of a diaper Genie get a diaper disposal can that closes and you can use normal garbage bags for. Diaper Geanies get expensive. also a bottle warmer is great. ohh and cordless monitors.'
OMG, TWO WORDS
';DIAPER GENIE';
After that, the things that I used the most were our carseat, our bassinet, our baby wash tub, Balmex, the nasal aspirator the hospital gives you, wipes (lots of those - we love the CVS Soft Cloth ones in scented), Halo Sleep Sacks, a couple of receiving blankets, a binky or two, and seriously, Gerber footie pajamas that zip, not snap (those snaps can be h*ll at 2AM).
We loved shopping at Babies R Us too... They have EVERYTHING you could dream of...
Congrats on your little one!
Halloween costume ideas. Can you give me some advice?
I am 6'3'; tall and slim/average build (about 190 lbs.). I have a five-inch surgical scar on my left arm (wrist/palm area) that I would like to use as part of my costume. Nothing overly scary, as I have a small child. The costume will be worn to a family-friendly party and will be worn for about 3 hours, so comfort is a major factor. Budget is also a large factor. Please feel free to be creative. I need all the help that I can get.Halloween costume ideas. Can you give me some advice?

Do you think investors who heeded the presidents advice ';it's a good time to buy'; are glad the did?
I don't know about them, but I pulled mine out back in September and I am soooooo glad I did.Do you think investors who heeded the presidents advice ';it's a good time to buy'; are glad the did?
How would the president know he stated he is not concerned nor can be bothered with the fluctuations in the market. Now he is a stock expert?Do you think investors who heeded the presidents advice ';it's a good time to buy'; are glad the did?
Yes.
Buying and selling stocks for short term gains is the biggest fundamental problem with the way our economy works. It only creates a house of cards that is destined to fall.
We'll see if investors don't pull the carpet out from under them at the first hint of poor economic indicators...
I say he likely sabotaged the very people he's vowed to represent...assuming of course they took his advice.
Maybe so but this could also be a suckers rally.
If they sell right now then yes but if they hold on then no. We are headed for a MAJOR Depression.
Well there's nothing that they are losing.
If Obama is so positive about this, I would like to know which stocks he is buying.

I would wait til saturday morning at least just to be safe because it will mess up your hair if you wash it right after it is chemically straightened. i get my hair straightened and my stylist says wait four or even five days (its so hard not to wash your hair but otherwise your hair won't stay straight)
Just try and wait until tomorrow morning maybe? I don't really know but if i were paying a lot to get it straightened i would probably do what they said, to get the best results. I know the feeling and hate it. Only one more night :) Hope I help.
