Does Buying Organic Make You a Better Parent?

03 Oct 2009 11:33 AM

I wonder if it has to do with location? I live in the Upper Midwest and our local organic health food store charges $1 per pound for strawberries than the pesticide laden strawberries I buy at the regular grocery store. We don't have a large Amish population on this side of the state, so I haven't been able to price their produce. If you live in a heavily populated Amish community, I'm sure you could score big on fresh produce. Thanks for the tip, Pattie.

Do You Apologize To Your Kids?

21 Sep 2009 03:36 PM

Another pro of apologizing to your kid is that hopefully he/she will learn by example and know that saying you're sorry is not a sign of weakness; rather it's a sign of maturity and humility--both virtues will take you far in life.

How Old Is Too Old For Kindergarten?

21 Sep 2009 03:33 PM

I totally get that parents want their kid to be at the head of the class and often hold him/her back a year so he/she doesn't get lost in the shuffle, but a 7-year-old in K, seems a bit excessive.

Would You Let Your Teen Run for Governor?

Governor is not on her list just yet, but, you're right, my dd would have my support even if she wanted to make a career of underwater basket weaving.
