What your kids want you to resolve
Filed under: Health & Safety: Babies, Media
I don't make New Year's resolutions anymore. I used to make the same ones every year: quit smoking, start running more, be more grateful for all that I have without getting weighed down by the petty crap I worry about. And every year I would smoke, run sporadically, and sweat bullets about the small stuff.But I do find it interesting to hear about the resolutions of others, if only to get some quiet inspiration.
I was intrigued by this article about what kids want their parents to resolve for New Year's. I imagine that our kids' perspectives are indeed good indication on what we should work on (except for toddlers, of course, who think we should work on giving them more chocolate and letting them swirl toilet water while naked.)
Most of the kids surveyed wanted their smoking parents to butt out in the New Year, while others wished their parents would listen more and work less. All sound reasonable to me.

The Possible Cause of Endometriosis
I have a question regarding Endometriosis and would like to get your advice. My wife is 36 yrs old and we have been blessed with 3 kids. After her 2nd delivery (we got twins in the year 2001) which was also a C section, she developed the symptoms of endometriosis about a year and a half later on the anterior abdominal wall near the umbilicus. This I was told was because of improper care post her 2nd C section delivery.
