06 . School of Housekeeping
Homeschooling families certainly have a lot on their plates; what with creating and following their own educational curriculums, using the entire community as the classroom, and juggling outside activities- just how do they find time to wash those plates?!

08 . Corporate Sponsored Day Care Offers Relief
Putting your child in day care is one of the most traumatic experiences a mother can endure. You canŐt win either you feel guilty about someone else taking care of your precious one or you feel guilty that you arenŐt worried about someone else watching your kid.

10 . Seeking Connection: Kids and Gangs
It is a quest as old as time the search for belonging, for connection to something beyond ourselves. Rooted in the simple, but undeniable belief that there is emotional and physical strength in numbers, this quest had led us to form nations, create families and find all manner of ways to join together in community.

11 . Thumb the Habit!
I am going to admit something I havenŐt admitted to anyone else: I sucked my thumb until I was nine years old. Even my stepdaughters donŐt know the full truth. When my eldest asked me how long I had the habit, I replied, ŇIŐm not sure,Ó doing my best to sound nonchalant.

12 . Toys that Develop Fine Motor Skills
According to wikipedia, fine motor skills can be defined as small muscle movements, which occur in the fingers, in coordination with the eyes. These abilities, which involve the use of hands, develop over time, starting with primitive gestures such as grabbing at objects to more precise activities that involve hand-eye coordination.
