Do you think that corporal punishment is wrong and if so why?

In today's economy, there are many of us that have degrees or education of some sort, but are still finding it hard to make it.  Some people have decided to go back to school and persue something that is more advantageous, but how late is too late to start a new career?

Off-Topic / Re: How many kids should an average person or couple have per household?

I think that would be at the discretion of the person or couples involved.  However, I do think that finances should play a huge part in this.  I don't think that it is a very smart idea to have children that you are not able to care for, but if you have it and want to share, I say go for it and have as many as your heart desires!

Off-Topic / Re: what do you like more walmart or target?

Definitely Wal-Mart.  Although they have seemed to do like everyone else and raised their prices over time, I still think that they are a much better deal than Target.  They do have some great bargains at times.

I know that you may think that your child is not ready to be potty trained, but she is.  She is going on two years old and should not be in diapers unless there is a medical condition for it.  You will have to be persistent and consistent in helping her.  She  may not necessarily want to use the potty, but may actually want to use the adult toilet.  Next time, take her to the bathroom and place her on the toilet.  Be patient and give her time.  If you do this on a consistent basis, she will become accustomed to doing it on her own and let you know when she has to go.  Take it from the mother of several children.  When one thing does not work, try something else.  And try to understand what the child is saying without saying.   
Good luck and remember to be patient!!!
