• When Kids Toys are Dirty - And We're Not Talking Mud

  Why do they call it being childish when you figure out how to make your kid's toys say naughty words? You don't REALLY want a child doing it. OK, so it's immature. But Ms. Stick up Your You Know What, it's kind of hilarious. Right? Right? Read More...

• Smackdown: I Need a Time Out!

  The amount of time my daughter spends in her room has grown exponentially as she's gotten older. She sleeps less. She "times out" more.  Yes, time out is a staple of our discipline diet in my household. Early on in my pregnancy, my husband and I debated the best methods for behavior modification. Neither one of us was crazy about spanking. But the idea that you discipline with love? That's the stuff of temper tantrums - for Mom.  Read More...

• Smackdown: No Naughty Chair For Us, Thanks

  Popularized as an alternative to spanking, the time-out has become such a feature of American child-rearing that it's spawned an entire industry in advice books and tiny moralistic furniture. And no episode of Supernanny would be complete without it. Millions of parents seem to feel it's the only non-violent way to discipline their children, and that without it we'd be a nation of spankers, misbehaved kids, or both.   I disagree. Read More...

• 10 Naughty Things We Do to Our Kids (but keep doing anyway)

  Let’s face it; if you were to put secret surveillance on them 24/7, any parent would look like a putz. There are things that we do with our kids, when others aren’t about or are out of ear shot, that we maybe feel bad about. But not bad enough to stop doing.       #10: Laughing when your daughter farts.... Read More...

• Healthy Eating Leads Children to Porn

  We try to do the best for our best for our kids. Make them brush their teeth, look both ways before crossing the street. But are we trying too hard to protect our kids? Could these well intentioned acts actually have a negative effect? Perhaps, as some parents are learning encouraging their children to eat healthy is leading the kids to pornography. To be specific, it leads them to, and I quote, “Hot Gay Bareback” porn… Read More...

• Why Kids Curse

  The other day my 1-year-old called me a douche bag.  I could be mistaken; he may have been just asking for a cookie. Even though we like to pretend Dalton can say seven or so words, all the “words” are indecipherable and they all kind of sound like “douche bag.” If you've ever wondered why your kids are so irresistibly drawn to swearing, here's the answer...
