Hello, My son just turned four. His biological father has now been in my sons life for 8 months total. He called us in February for the first time in years and told me that he was married, heard I was too, and that he would like to see his son. My husband who has been raising my son as his own this whole time, was the one that calmed me down when I got the phone call and said that maybe it would be a good thing. I on the other hand wanted to Read More

My daughter started kindergarten this year. She is a very sweet and sensitive girl who has been raised to be kind to other and not hurt peoples feelings. What advice should you give to them when they come home and tell you that others have been unkind to them? It upsets me, but I realise these skills have to be learnt by all of us in the early stages in our life and I don’t want to over react. I talk to her about not being bullied Read More

My 2 yr old is very nasty sometimes with her dad and other people. For instance, he comes home from work sometimes and she doesnt even say hello to him. If he asks for a kiss at bedtime she refuses and all sorts of things like that. He can play with her for an hour or so then she can just suddenly turn around and say i dont like you! She is the same with other people sometimes but not as much as her dad. He gets very upset about it sometimes Read More

I enrolled my 4 years old boy in a private pre-school 2 months ago. Since the 5-year-old class teacher has been on maternity leave, so the school combined 4-year-old & 5-year-old classes together for 2 months. I have to say…the teacher is overloaded. Last month, my 4-year-old boy was bullied. A 4-year-old girl kicked, pinched & hitted him. A 5-year-old boy hitted him & a 5-year-old tiny girl slapped his arm. I talked to Read More

Hi, I am a happy mother of four girls, Isobella (8), Kaytlyn (5), Rubi (2) and Marielle (11 months). My little 5 year old has just started Prep/Preschool and is still in nappies! I have been encouraging her to wear knickers with a ‘star chart’ but she still refuses. She won’t go on the toilet or potty either. If I make her wear knickers, she crys and just wets her pants. Her schoolteachers are lovely and offer to change her Read More

A Parent asks, My four year old daughter has constant tantrums in school. The teachers tell me that she sometimes screams for an hour repeating the same thing over and over again after an incident. She has similar problems at home but doesn’t cry for that long. A lot of times if I ask her to do something she will look at me and ignore me until I scream at her. She is a very smart and sweet girl but I am starting to think that she might Read More
