She gets her way most of the time.What's wrong with this scenario?I've been in many homes where the child seems to make the rules.

The holiday season is coming up, and it's a busy time for everyone. One of the most critical things we have to do to get ready is to shop for gifts, which isn't always easy. If you have no idea what to get your kid recipients this year, take a look at these never-fail suggestions. These include gift ideas, and ways to make each present more personal for individual children. We have to rack our brains and search diligently for the perfect gift for family, friends, and co-workers. Luckily, for most adults, if we can't think of anything else, we have the option of falling back on the gift card idea. But for the children in your life, you usually need to get something a bit bigger. After all, opening an envelope to get to a card isn't nearly as fun as tearing open the wrapping paper around a nice present!Games and Toys - This may seem like an obvious answer to the gift-giving question, but I would suggest staying away from the simpler objects.

For older children, you could select things like the game of Scrabble, or a...more

Contrary to popular tradition, baby showers are no longer limited to the elder women close to an expectant new mother. Whereas baby showers were once used to share knowledge with the mother-to-be, baby showers are now simply a celebration of life, a welcome to the new infant.The birth of a child is one of the most life changing, awe inspiring and hectic times in a person's life. Excitement, exhaustion, and new responsibilities fill both days and nights, often making birth announcements and baby showers a low priority. Luckily for the new parents, baby showers are traditionally organized by the new mother's bridesmaids, maid of honor, sister, or best friend. At the same time, many expectant mothers may find themselves participating in the organization of their own baby's shower. Knowing how to organize these events can make things go far more smoothly and with far less effort.Today's modern society has integrated many old traditions from around the world and created new traditions. In olden times, baby showers were held exclusively for a first child by the older, more experienced women so that they could offer their wisdom and experience to the new mother. In...more
