It’s hard to know what to expect when your baby begins moving around, for advice on what should happen and when see our Development Milestones app. Three year old Cody will only walk on tip-toe, this may be a result of short tendons in the ankle, or a sign of cerebral palsy or autism. In Cody’s case it is a simple bad habit, so podiatrist Steve Lions gives Cody some insoles in an effort to bring the ground up to his feet, and two months later the treatment has vastly improved his walk. This new series explores the conditions and ailments that leave many of us a little red-faced and aims to de-stigmatise common complaints.

Question: My MIL is in the middle of a divorce w/her husband. They have a 7 yr old daughter who is a complete daddy’s girl b/c he gives her EVERYTHING she wants. No discipline @ all, he undermines her authority in front of her, has called her profane names in the childs presence, etc…The separation agreement states he can occupy the garage (his office – self employed) until 3pm, but he is there until 6, 7, sometimes 10pm. He vents to their daughter about how her mother won’t let him in the house and it’s all her (mom) fault that he can’t stay the night and that this whole thing is going on. He is a complete drunk and spends all his free time at a bar. He talks smack about my MIL’s family constantly (and in front of the child) and is a complete As&*(#$! What can she do outside of taking him to court? I’m talking “think outside of the box”. I seriously want to make this guys life hell for doing this to my family! He is a compulsive liar and fills his daughters head w/ lies about her mom’s side of the family! Please give me some good advice (other than normal legal stuff).
Question: My son turned 3 in March and over the last 1 1/2 months, he has become horrible behavior wise. EVERYTHING is “NO, or I DON”T WANT TO. He screams about everything, fights with his older brother, throws things and absolutely refuses to go on the potty. Don’t bother telling me I need to discipline him because I am a firm believer in time-outs and doing what it takes for him to understand his behavior is NOT acceptable but nothing seems to affect him. He was such a wonderful child before he turned 3 and I always received compliments on how well behaved he was. Not the case anymore.
I just had a baby which friends tell me is a big contributing factor to his behavior. I am just beyond frustrated and don’t know what to do. Any advice?
Question: I live in Texas, and according to Penal Code 9.62, it states:
EDUCATOR-STUDENT. The use of force, but not deadly force, against a person is justified:
(1) if the actor is entrusted with the care, supervision, or administration of the person for a special purpose;
and
(2) when and to the degree the actor reasonably
believes the force is necessary to further the special purpose or to
maintain discipline in a group.
My son was at school and was refusing to do his school work. He is a special needs child and just lost his only Uncle the day before Thanksgiving. He has been having a tough time and had a bad day. Two teachers, and the Principle, held him down against a desk to “Physically prompt” him to do his work. They even wrote a note home that says this is what happen. My son is COVERED in bruises and said he cried for them to stop because it hurt. I have alerted the Media, called police, taken photos and video and now coming here to get advice. The cop told me it was “legal to beat your kids” in Texas…no, really, he said he thought it was “the best law in Texas”. And he told me that the teachers had the right to do what they felt necessary to get him to comply to their rules! Here are some of his injuries:
(The bruises on wrist were from where they were grabbing/holding so hard to force the pencil in his hand)
My son was not needing to be restrained, he just simply told the teachers he was not doing classwork because he was depressed; they then physically made him to it, leaving injuries while he was kicking and screaming and begging them to stop. He was not a threat to himself or anyone. I have had 4 cops restrain him, sedate him, and put cuffs on him; my husband and I have restrained him many times (all pre-medication, now he never needs to be restrained); yet NEVER has he been bruised or hurt in the process.
He had already been home an entire week; they said he had to come back or I was going to jail.
Jake, thank you! And I did remove him from school this morning. Now I wish I lived in the UK…lol
Question: My parents’ reason is that they don’t like my going to parties with people drinking and all, which at this modern day for teenagers seems to be inevitable. I never drink even if my friends do, I swear, and I am most definite that I tell them that. However no matter how many times I defend myself to be clean and will never be influenced by inappropriate actions, they seem to not have any trust on me nor to my friends whom they have already met and have “disliken,” so to speak. At this age, I seldom go out to teen parties which I think is making me so anti-social and I believe I am losing my self-confidence and interpersonal relationship skills.
What do i do?These are the only friends I got (due to my homebody nature). Am i still to young to go out and be independent of my decisions? At this age, when I have not finished my studies yet, is it true that I can still be easily influenced and may ruin my life’s goal of becoming aprofessional because of such socialization? Advice urgent.
Question: I am the mother of a boy that will be five in March next year, the trouble is he’s obsessed with me. Since he was born I have always been there for him, providing food and clothing, giving him both the discipline as needed and the security too basically being the only one to take care of him. Now he loves his mommy and doesn’t like his daddy at all, when they are together no matter what my husbands attempts of getting affection from him are, my son simply refuses. Like tonight was horrible, my son has this habit lately of picking his nose, and well he picked his nose and went to get a kleenex, he walked up to daddy first like he was going to give him a hug, my husband looks at him and says “oh you want a hug” but instead of hugging him he wiped a booger on his shirt. Well that made my husband very angry so he got punished. Then after that they spent the entire night arguing back and forth like siblings rather than being adult and child. It’s getting exhausting almost like my son doesn’t want his father around and like my husband doesn’t forgive him when he gets in trouble. Anyone have advice?
Question: My wife is a special ed major and has been a teacher for over 20 years……When my brother and his wife had their first child it was apparent that something was wrong with his at about age 3. My wife and I were there and were prepared to help and be supportive. As time went on ..it was obvious that they were not prepared to address this. Time passed and much to our horror my brother and his wife kept their head in the sand. When the child was 7-8 years old they started to come around and realize they needed to get him some help. We played the game and never said anything because we knew it would just upset them. My wife was horrified by the fact that time was slipping away and the kid needed help….When they finally decided that he probably had a problem ( or were ready to admit it)….He was 9 …… He is Oppositional Defiant and does very unexceptable things at every chance he gets…..It isnt his fault,but some of his actions are not good… dropping his pants in front of others ….swearing…hitting……and he doesnt listen or sometimes even aknowlege his parents…. they do little to discipline him…and use Playstation as a babysitter most times…….He is my only brother….my wife is disgusted with them …and so am I really…..When it was all out on the table about his having aspergers….My wife and I tried to offer our help in any way…. Its one of those things where ..they didnt want good advice….they wanted to stay in the fog about it rather than address the issue…… They dont discipine him and he does what he wants around the house….. This has basically ruined my relationship with my brother…..I have a 9 year old daughter and he has pushed her down… dropped his pants (like a big joke) ….. swore at her….. and I try to not say anything but the few times I have said something …It was like “I” had done something wrong. I KNOW that you aren’t suppose to say anything when it comes to how shitty someone is raising their kid but….when it affected my daughter i said something…. I dpnt think ill ever have a good relationship with my brother or his wife…. sad but true….some people are dumb asses…. family included
