I know that dietitians have now set a standard of 4 servings of fruit or vegetables a day. I know my grandchildren will eat fruit but how much luck are the rest of you had at getting them to eat vegetables? Mine won't eat anything but mashed potatoes for a vegetable. Nothing with any color...

When I was raising my kids, we did all of the children's sports. Of course we had baseball, football and basketball. At that time there was no soccer, but both boys were in all three at one time or another and our daughter was in baseball and basketball on the girls teams since they did...

First let me say, I am not a saint. I have lived and honestly a lot of what I've done, I am not proud of. I would rather my grandchildren and my 2 year old did not find out a lot of what I did in my youth until they are old enough to understand. However, my ex has decided that we all need to...
