Question:
I’ve owned a 01 cyber green new beetle for 2 years. It runs fine, but the paint needs retouching and some things need to be fixed. I’m getting a job soon and I considering trading it for a small SUV(something like a jeep patriot or a , or I can give the beetle a new paint job and fix it. I love my bug, its unique, people stare when I drive by, and my college friends think my parents are rich (seriously I dont know why, because of the paint), and its so fun to drive. Any advice will be appreciated Thanks!

Question:
So I’ve been first chair flute since I started playing, I’ve been challenged a ton and I have never lost.
I currently play on a model 104 tarnished armstrong flute that needs a full pad and spring repair. (It’s my concert insterment and it’s worse then everyone marching flute)
So i’ve been doing some looking around and I want to get a new flute for christmas (a pearl flute) and I am offering to pay for half of it myself. (It’s $700, so not to expensive)
And ideas on how to persuade them to buy me it?

Question:
Hey everyone. I get so sad when I think of my parents passing away and I don’t know if my new family with new future hubby and kids will ever feel as loving. Is it the same feeling? What is it like to have them gone but have your brand new family that you made? Does it feel just as fulfilling and secure? Of course you love them, but does the feeling differ at all? Thanks for the advice!

Question:
I’m 17 and my new 13 year old stepbrother has been living with us for only a few months but we get along great…the problem is we get along too well because he’s always acting very flirty towards me and even walks around nude in front of me or goes skinny dipping in our pool when our parents aren’t home. It doesn’t help that he’s a really good looking boy and my hormones are going crazy at my age, so I can’t help but look at his body when he does stuff like this. Since we’re not blood related at all and we didn’t grow up together which makes him just a random boy not related to me, is it OK to give in to our feelings? Can anyone e-mail me or answer the question directly with any advice please? thanx

Question:
I am getting my nose pierced in January when I finally move out of my parent’s house (23 years old and I have to follow their rules, lol) I had a few questions. How much does it hurt (I have 6 tattoos and both tragus and rook pierced). How do you clean it and how often? Any other advice would be great. Thanks.

Question:
Since becoming a mom I’ve noticed that a lot of people like to give unsolicited advice and give very rude comments. Much of the time it’s complete strangers. Talking with friends who have babies- well it’s all too common.
I usually respond with, “well, i’m doing what my pediatrician, my husband and i feel is best for my daughter”…
Why do people think it’s acceptable for them to do this?
Usually when I say my pediatrician said to do this or that- well the person will accept it. A few won’t. I had one lady tell me to listen to her and not the doctor because she worked in a pediatrics office once.
If it’s good sound advice I’ll listen, but it’s usually pretty out there. And believe it or not, a lot of the time it’s from people who don’t have kids and have zero child care experience!! lol crazy!
I have a few people I bounce advice off of- her doc, my husband, my father (an m.d.), my mother (had 4 children), etc.
