Yale child study center has an excellent book/guide out that deals with everything you need to know. Adults biting children is simply wrong, I don't care if it worked or not. My son is 7 now and did the same thing. He bit himself, and us at that age. We did not bite back, and he stopped just the same.

Dicipline, even at 1 1/2, is very important. It requires self control from the parent, another learning time for child, and periodic time outs. Only consistency with consequence will teach your child the true meaning of why he cannot bite himself or others. The quick method of 'biting back' by a caregiver not only does NOT teach respect, but it is abusive

cutest, friendliest child in the WORLD...modeling pictures?

All mothers hear how beautiful their children are, especially when they are babies and toddlers. You might be just a teeny bit biased about your son. Take lots of pictures and pick out the cutest few and send them in. Just don't be terribly disappointed if your son doesn't get a contract. You have to remember child modeling agencies get thousands of pictures a year and there is a limited demand for child models.

Love your son for the beautiful child he is and let him be a child. If he wants to be a model when he is older you can help him pursue it further. Personally, I think toddlers shouldn't be put to work.

Good luck, proud mama!!

i need some info on toy poddle's.?

Yes, all animals shed - and not all poodles are hypoallergenic - so if you have allergies that is not necessarily the best dog for you. If you have an allergic reaction to dogs now - start treating your allergies don't wait until you get a dog. There is no promise that you will be immune to a poodles (or any dogs) dander (that creates a reaction). So anticipate having the sniffles and go to the doctor for treatments. Then you wont have any problems when you get the dog.

Why would you have to save fur? Do you mean shave? yes - they need to be groomed regurlarly.

Adoption fees vary by shelter depending on the dogs age and condition (ie already spayed / neutered dogs are usually cheaper)

Activities for 2 1/2 year old and 7 month old? Encouraging me to become more actively involved?

The first thing you can do is get some friends who have children, have you checked out the mops group in your area, it has been a life saver for myself and some friends. www.mops.org check it out.

Next, turn the tv off. You have to read to them everyday. The jumperoo is fine, but reading is great, you can teach them so much so young by reading and pointing things out to them.

Check out my website and preschool express. You can find tons of stuff to do on those sites. Honestly though you need to take care of yourself, we get like this when we don't keep ourselves happy with social interaction and such.

Good luck, and email me through earlychildhood if you need more help.

Dog breed? What dog should I get?

None

You can't own a dog , you can't adopt one, you can't afford to pay for its vet care or anything.

There is NO way you can' afford 2,000 a year for the general upkeep of two puppies and there's no way you have the time to take care of one puppy much less two. No shelter, rescue or breeder will ever allow you to have two puppies since the puppies will bond with each other, not huamns and it will cause all manner of issues that will lead to them getting rid of the dogs.

You ahve six hours of school and you play sports so how can you take one much less TWO puppies out every hour? You can't

Can I get an opinion or view please?

1. Being a virgin at 22 is not all that unusual.

2. She may like you a bit, but bar-tenders, waitresses, and other people who make their living off of tips have a built in incentive to be flirty. She may be interested in being more than friends, but don't bank on it.

3. Asking a girl out is best done in person if you can. It shows confidence, which is good. If you can not muster the courage to do it in person, a text would be a lot better than saying nothing. I'm not a big fan of movie dates, especially for a first time. Something competitive and active is better. It allows you to interact, have fun, and play, rather than sitting together in the dark.

How to teach a failing 4 year old girl ABC's etc. ?

Don't use only paper and pencil. Let her write in sand, shaving cream, fingerpaint, hairgel in a baggy...be creative! She is only four. Spelling and writing words should come only after she has name recognition, letter recognition and can write her own name. After this, move on to names of people in her family and so on.

Also, four year olds have VERY short attention spans. Ten minutes of sitting still at most, then do something active (a game where she can jump from letter to letter or something). Praise the daylights out of her when she has a success but don't make a big deal out of errors. Again, she is only four, that is very young. Make it fun for her, songs and games, and hand-on activities. God luck!

Rectal prolapse in 7 week old puppie...can anyone give me info on this?

Firstly i feel it is excellent that you just took in this rescue cat regardless of it is issues. However, this is a 'unique' meals nutrition for the reason that that is what he demands and it is probably not secure for him so that you can modify his nutrition or present choices. I could cell your out of hours vet train and provide an explanation for that you want extra meals or touch a cat safe haven who will have a few in inventory. As for the fowl flavour youngster meals - it can be costly however alas that's one of the most drawbacks of taking over pets, chiefly the ones with meical headaches. wish you get whatever,

i got a puppy, shih poo. shes the runt and weighs under a lb. how big will she be full grown?

How old is this puppy? There is no way to tell how big she will be. I've had Runts, that grew up to be bigger than their siblings so sometimes they do catch up. I've had Runts that stayed very small but are healthy and years later are doing great. In your case, it depends on how old your puppy is, how healthy she is, the vet care she receives and how strong she is. Some Runts are not so strong or sick and they don't make it for more than 2-3 years, if even that. I would discuss with your vet about what he or she thinks your puppy will grow up to weigh, when she becomes an adult.

learning time with my 1.5 year old?

There are times in the day where he'll be less active, and you can do some activities with him. Do age appropriate learning. Coloring is not age appropriate. Neither is numbers, letters or reading.

You can get blocks with numbers and letters on them, as well as other toys that stimulate learning without actually being "school work".

He's FAR too young for school work.

Work with his activity levels. If he's jumping, count his jumps. If he's running in circles you can count the steps, or the circles, or you can make up a funny song.

If he's climbing a ladder, say, "That's the ladder. It's a red ladder. You're going UP the ladder."

Never had an orgasm please help?

Buy a vibrator and diff sex toys and experiment with them, ALONE, in diff positions, different angles, playing with different spots, go through different fantasies in your mind, watch porn for ideas, stimulate yourself with the toys and fingers, basically learn your body, you're just not in tune with your sexual needs, you need to discover them, you're young, it takes time,experimenting alone gives you all the time you need by yourself, take your time, discover yourself, doing it alone means you also do it without expectation from anyone, if it takes you an hour to climax or more, so what, its YOUR time, learn what works for you and dont be discouraged if it takes a while to learn what makes you tick, its a process, have fun with it

I have a dog problem that has me a little worried...?

He demands to be obvious for this - faster larger than later. All the indicators point out that he most likely harm his again. Small puppies are extra inclined to this hindrance. DO NOT supply him some thing for the discomfort or agony till you recognize what the hindrance is. Keep him from going up and down the steps and from leaping up or down from some thing. If this can be a disc hindrance then he might come to be paralyzed so preserve comfy - in an constrained field till you could have him obvious. When making a choice on him up attempt to preserve the again as instantly as feasible. An shuttle to the emergency medical institution might be a excellent concept

I got the worst behaved dog ever, trainer said get rid of him?

I have wanted one of these dogs ever since I saw the first one, beautiful. Too bad he's 9 months old, harder to train but I will tell you to read up on Alpha Wolf Training. It's harsh but works, I train protection dogs this way.

Next time he bites or nips or is the slightest bit aggressive, grab him by the back of the neck and flip him onto his back. Get on top of him just like his mother would do and talk with a growl, he might pee on you a little. You should not have to do this over 3 times before he recognizes you as the alpha.

Please read up on this training, these can be wonderful dogs. Good luck

dog depression? Esta mi perro deprimido?

Conjunctivitis is an infection in the eye and the medication will take care of that.

If your dog has always been treated well and loved, it is unlikely he is depressed. More likely, he is totally normal, just showing changes in behavior related to age. Puppies are very active, very frisky, and they like to play a lot. Once they get out of the puppy stage, some breeds turn into couch potatoes. You didn't say what breed he is, but my guess is that he outgrew his puppy ways and is a more mature, quieter dog. He might not initiate play, but I'm sure he still enjoys it. Take him outside and play with him. Sometimes, a new toy or new playing place makes a bit of a difference.
