why not cut off the ears at birth to prevent

not circumcising can be reversed, if the boy/man so chooses. Having had a friend working in a gay porn store, hehe, there is a consensus among men that circumcised men miss out...

I don't know how to prevent them, but I do
know how to stop one once it starts. If you're lying down, flex your toes towards you. That stretches the muscles that are cramping and will pull out the cramp quickly.
Wish I knew how to prevent them -- I seem to go in cycles.
Just trying to prevent a
child getting yanked away from his father because some busybody doesn't think kids should be spanked.
JMO but I feel that yes you can't prevent them hearing it
in school, etc., but you can prevent yourselves from condoning it which is what you'd be doing by giving it to her. And then when she tells her friends some will very likely tell their parents (who may not want to go that route) "Well my friend so-and-so's parents got it for her!" So, I agree with you on this one. And, again, just my opinion. :)
I tell you what shampoo WILL prevent lice...sm
At Sally's the generic Paul Mitchell's tea tree oil shampoo. Tea Tree Oil kills lice so if you shampoo with it it prevents them. It is not a lice killer it is just regular shampoo. It smells a lot like peppermint to me. I used it when my son started kindergarden because I didn't want him to get lice. Kids in his clss had it and he never got it. It is a little expensive but worth it to me.
Oh hurry up and outlaw IUDs then, eh? They prevent sm
a fertilized ovum from implanting in the uterine wall so I'm sure that form of contraception is "killing a baby", right?
And her tail covering those "delicate" areas to prevent
s
But, isn't it supposed to prevent a percentage of HPV which causes the cervical cancer, after
you contract HPV, there is nothing you can do except monitor it. I have a friend with HPV and she is in the doctor's office every 3-6 months.
wax in ears
Also, I totally agree with this post; check his ears. Every time my son has went for a checkup, they have told me they can hardly see in because of wax. Told me to get Debrox, an ear drop that dissolves wax. I usually forget to use it, but remember when he is due for a checkup!! It can't hurt... 
how old should a boy be before he gets his ears
pierced? My son wants hoops but he's only 9. I told him about 13 but i'm wondering if i'm being to hard on him. Please don't write and say a boy shouldn't be allowed to have his ears pierced; I am happy for him to do it and won't change my mind on it but I just want to know how long other moms made their sons wait.
TIA!
anyone have ringing in ears?
I know in this profession we tend to diagnose ourselves - I have ringing in only one ear - is not affecting hearing - most annoying when things are quiet - from what I can tell it is usually in both ears if related to medication or other things that are a simple fix. I'm thinking brain tumor!! Anyone else have similar experiences?
ringing in ears
I notice this after taking aspirin.
yes, and he has funky ears too.
when his hair was shorter you could see them better.
I started watching a couple years ago on and off and now I am hooked.
I am glad Nick and Taylor got married today, and he did not give in to Brooke. Can you image someone being like that in real life? So pathetic. ICK.
ears pierced?
Say what you want, but ask yourself how that'll be working for him when he's out in the real world trying to get a decent job?
I personally think it looks strange for a man to wear jewelry. The Tiffany Reference book specifically says a man should only wear a watch and wedding band, if applicable.
Having a conversation like this with a 9YO makes me just shudder.
pierced ears
My son was the same as as yours when he asked to get his ears pierced. He wanted both of them pierced, so we compromised on one. He wears a very small green birthstone and sometimes a very small hoop and takes very good care of it. I felt this was not a big deal. There are much bigger issues to worry about. An ear piercing, in my opinion, is not one of them.
tears in my ears.
is how the song goes.
It's one of my favorites.
Falling on deaf ears........and
I also urge them to contact their senators and congressman, but I am sad to say too often these things fall on deaf ears. I am forever amazed at how people in this country think if something is imposed by their government, it must be okay! They don't really question why MORE laws, what do we need it for, who is it really benefitting. They just say, "Oh well, what's it hurting. If you're not doing anything wrong you shouldn't care that you are being stripped of your freedoms". Putting more restrictions on US citizens does what for us? Does anyone ever ask what the purpose is for? If they actually think this has anything to do with locating illegals, they are really gullable. The government knows where illegals are....they're in sanctuary cities, heck, they're in my city. Do you see them rounding them up and deporting them? They're marching down our streets holding the Mexican flag.....get a clue...it has NOTHING to do with protecting us. The borders are wide open to illegals, north and south. Instead of taking our freedoms from us, crack down on businesses hiring illegals, quit giving them welfare assistance, free education, free healthcare, free, free, free for ILLEGALS, and guess what?.....no jobs, no healthcare, no freebies, they will go back home. Their home. Does anyone actually ask why we are creating this new law? It's as if they don't really want to know, don't want to be bothered with reading and studying the bill, don't want to question why this is even necessary. If our government says to, then of course it must be good for us because, after all, we are too dumb a people to think for ourselves, at least that's what the federal government hopes, that you'll all sit on your complacent behinds and do nothing......until the deed is done.
Clean out your ears so they can crawl out.

LOL or like my fat Siamese. My ears couldn't take it.
MEOW, MEOW!!
I've probably done damage to my ears
had front row seats to Jimi Hendrix! Loved concerts. My kids still laugh at me. Now with my Ipod I am even liking cleaning the house!
My husband has 1 of his ears pierced
and he is just about the sexiest thing I have ever ran across! When we first started going together he had an earring- somewhere over the years it is not there and I told him the other day want him to get another 1- he is 1 heck of a man and a manly 1 at that!
*ears perk up* cherry cream?
That sounds YUMMY! Oh, and if you had a piece of chocolate cream with it...
I think I'm going to follow you. Wish I had a MIL that made good pies. It would make it all worth it. lol
I wouldn't have to worry about keeping my mouth shut...It would be full of pie!
Do you think that piercing a child's ears is abuse?

Southern by birth
Full of holes.....
I think my mom and your mom were separated at birth. nm

Giving birth at 70?
A 70-year-old woman from India claims she has become the world's oldest new mother.
Rajo Devi and her husband Bala Ram had wanted a child in all their 50 years together.
She claims to have given birth to a baby girl at the end of November after having IVF treatment. Her husband is 72.
Your birth place
Have you moved or been back to the place (town) you were born? Has is changed drastically or is it pretty much the same?
I was just looking a pictures online of mine and it hasn't changed all that much.
Were you the one who just gave birth?
xxxx
gave birth later
I was 29 with the first and 38 with the second with no birth defects
There most certainly WAS birth control back then--sm
it was called ABSTINANCE.
Celebrating the birth of my first grandchild, sm
born Friday afternoon at 12:37 p.m. They are coming home today, I am heading to their house to help out, my daughter tore a lot during delivery, is sore, so I want to do whatever I can, and enjoy the baby, BTW, a girl, 7 pounds, 15 ounces. Yikes, it's official, I really am getting old.
birth control pills
There are enough hormones in birth control pills to make you have a period, even if you are in menopause.
But menopause is not a disease and it most definitely is not a mental disease.
I plan on spoiling myself during this special time. To me, it will be just as magical as before it started and I will be just as happy to see it go, but I am certainly not sick or crazy because my hormones are rockin.
birth control pills
I am so thrilled to see that you think that there is nothing mental about menopause!! All the power to you!!
I personally know how "mental" PMS was and am very thankful for an OB/GYN who agrees that the safest way to combat the mood altering affects of menopause is for me to stay on Depo until I am at least 50 and then if I have any symptoms, I will go right back on it.
I do not intend to suffer any more than I have to. I have enjoyed 13+ years of no PMS thank you very much!! Oh and my MIL went through menopause about 12 years ago and still has hot flashes and nightsweats as does a DA so I am not sure when the symptoms all go away, but I will do whatever possible to avoid the "mental" ones anyway!!!!
Woman Gives Birth to 8 = Entertainment...sm
Like one poster said, because the human body is just not designed to carry this number of babies, these little ones will most likely suffer a lifetime of congenital defects or illness. Also, I'm sure anyone here who has ever brought home a baby (whether delivered or adopted), can attest to the physical, emotional, mental, and/or financial strains often associated with parenthood. Mother-infant bonding is vital part of normal human development. I don't see how these babies will have the opportunity to experience this on an individual basis. It's very sad that no one (mother or doctor) took their overall health and welfare into consideration. After being deprived of even a healthy pregnancy, their overall start in life is going to be a very rough one, if they even live.  To exploit this situation in a reality show for the sake of entertainment truly sickens me.
In a country where endangering a person's life is illegal, anyone involved in a case like this should be prosecuted, IMO. I would rank this woman's doctor right up there with Michael Jackson's plastic surgeon.
Sorry, not my year of birth? Why are you angry?
NM
The government will pay for birth control..
go to a planned parenthood. Very very cheap. There really is no excuse for 7 kids and no job for either parent. Join the military, get a job, like you said, at Wendy's or Wal-Mart or something. I am not against a hand up, but I am very much against a hand out.
It is the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ!!!!!!
she died of sepsis. May have something to do with the birth in the Bahamas. sm
She may have developed an infection and it turned into sepsis. I knew a girl once who had a miscarriage, developed sepsis, and almost died 6 months later. She was weak (she may have attributed the severe depression to her weakness from the death of her son), and this just reminded me of that gal I knew. She (the girl I knew) finally went to the doctor and they immediately wheeled her to a room and began IV antibiotics (she, too had developed extremely high fevers), and the surgeon said that had she not come to see a doctor within 24 hours she would have died. And this was MONTHS after the miscarriage....So, just a theory. The doctor on CNN also had this theory - maternal something. I can't remember the diagnosis....
Has anyone tried the Mirena birth control device or anything like it? sm
Having lots or problems with the pill and looking for new options. Thanks
No birth control pills when I had the abortions,
now how does that date me? The forms before the pills just not that good. When the BCP first came on the market, you were supposed to be married in order to obtain it. Facts that younger people would not even know now probably. Much easier now for younger people.
abstinance is the best form of birth control there is--sm
as opposed to killing babies. JMO. Besides coffee is bitter smelling and so is this. Wake up to life!
Unborn babies can't talk until they are given birth
gaa-gaa or a coo until probably 3-4 months. They sleep most of the time right after birth, so when do we ask and receive an answer?
FYI.. I gave birth to a child with hydrocephalus
She'll turn 7 in August, is in first grade, loving it, developing "normally." We had a tough go at first with surgeries, a shunt infection, and finally got her home from the hospital at 6 weeks old, and then had an abrupt shunt failure when she was 5 with emergency surgery. Other than that, you wouldn't know that she has medical issues at all. She is absolutely the light of my life. I can't imagine having snuffed out this little light before it even had a chance to shine.
Abstinence is not Birth Control, it is SAFE SEX.
Abstinence is truly the only SAFE SEX....but it is NOT considered birth control........
Yes it is...no sex...no preggo...hence birth control. ummmm. nm

Birth records are public but are listed under
child's name - not parents - so not sure you could find out this way.
Someone posted a video of birth on youtube!
This is the same mare from last night and it's showing THE EVENT. Very cool indeed for anyone who wants to watch!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14GN5amcx-w
I would pay a million to watch my MAN give birth!!!! LOL
no msg
No, of course not. Women give birth to litters all the
x
Wow - birth control = killing embryos? sm
I hope you're not holding your breath waiting for Mensa to invite you to join, or we'll be calling you "Old Blue".
Did anyone catch this? "is pregnant, has given birth" LOL sm
One is a pregnant woman who has given birth to a healthy baby; he declined to give any other details, including locations.
