?

I am 20 years old, and I have a 2 year old daughter. In January we are leaving to Job corps so I can get highschool done, and get my CNA. If all goes well there I expect to come back home, find a job in a nursing home, or anywhere really, find a place, enroll in school and become an RN. I hope that this will all be accomplished in about 5 years. I plan to have about 10,000 saved up in that time, (Im pretty good at sticking to the needs and not so much the wants. I hope to stay in the same area after I get back so that my daughter doesn't have to bounce around in school, and buy a house soon after I find a job as an RN. Hopefully somewhere along the line I will find a decent guy that will help me along the way or something, although that's not a requirement, as I am perfectly fine by myself. Anyway sorry if this sounds like a load of ramble, I am just kind of trying to figure out if my plain is destined to fail or not. And i understand that this is all going to be hard and will take a lot of sacrifice, but I have already thought of all of that, and I am pretty sure that I am capable. Anyway, thanks for any answers/advice.

I will be going to job corps soon, and I am just trying to find out if the will fly me there before the holiday break or not, and when that is this year. My counselor said I would most likely hear from them in 4 weeks, which will be about 2 and a half weeks now. So if they call me when she said they will, do you think they would fly me out soon, or would I have to wait until they are flying everyone back after christmas? Thanks!

Okay so, my husband is CONSTANTLY touching my butt and "lower" area, and my breasts. I don't think I would mind it so much except we are living in his mothers basement (one room) with our almost 2 year old daughter. So he is often doing this in front of her. I try to make him stop but he gets all pissed off and tells me that my body is his to touch as he pleases. I am leaving for job corps with my daughter in a couple months so this will no longer be a problem afterwards, but what do I do until then? I dont want him touching me at all, and I have honestly lost a lot of respect for him since I got pregnant, as he refuses to work. He thinks he is like, entitled to my body, and he can just sit around and do nothing. He helps a little with diaper changes and getting her food (as other unrelated drama has be banned from the kitchen upstairs, different story) but everything else is up to me. He doesn't clean or anything. I guess I'm just looking for advice, and I think it's unacceptable for him to do this in front of our child.

Hello, so I am planning on going to job corps in Kansas from Utah, with my 2 year old daughter. I am still legally married, but we haven't actually been together for some time now, about 7 months. I refer to us as separated, though it's not "Legal." I'm just wondering if this is going to effect my chances of leaving. I have talked to him a few times about this, and he doesn't care that I will be taking our daughter with me, and I'm sure I could even get him to sign something stating that. He plans on coming to get her on occasion as well. I just can't afford to get "Legally" separated right now, hence the reason I would we going to job corps. Any advice?

Okay I am planning on going to the Flint Hills Job corps in Kansas from Utah. I have a 2 year old daughter, and the Kansas one has a parent program thing, but yeah anyways:

I need to know if the food they give you is suitable for a child, as in would you feed it to a two year old. I can skip a couple meals, but its her im worried about.

Do they let you go off campus when you want? I am 20 so I cant imagine they could really keep me there, but I don't mind getting permission. I like to go out and do things with my daughter and such, and don't want to end up in trouble for it. Not to mention I would need to go shop for diapers and clothing for her and such.

Am I really going to come out of there with some kind of profitable skill? I am going for my GED and probably a medical course, CNA or a dental assisting or something, but do you REALLY get certified for it there?

If you went, do you feel like it was worth it?

I don't want any of the "Job corps sucks" answers. In my opinion, with everything completely free and even getting payed to go, there is no reason to complain about mean teachers or horrid food. This is an amazing opportunity for me, and I plan to embrace it weather you think it sucked or not.

I am looking to make a halloween costume for my toddler out of something like this, but I dont know what it's called to ask a store, or look online for it. If you know the real name of this fabric please let me know! Thanks!

I have a cattle dog, beagle mix, he is about 2 years old. He gets a little aggressive over his food with my other dogs. It basically started with that. Now when people come into my house he nips at their legs trying to get them out. Nothing serious yet, and he doesn't leave any marks on them but I fear he will soon, and I don't want the drama of a dog bite. In fact I believe aggressive dogs should be put down. Just today he was growling at my roommates chihuahua mix through the gate that divides the back yard and the patio, so my roommate is all freaked out. Is putting him down my only option? I have tried most of the training for it that I can do myself. I'm not going to spend a ton on some self-proclaimed dog trainer, since there's no licensing of them in my state, and I don't want to dump him on some person to try and fix him either. I think a shelter would put him down anyway, and they are overcrowded either way. He is neutered by the way. Anyway what can I do? anything?

Alright so my mom and step dad fight all the time. I live with my husband out of my mom's house, but my 2 sisters and 2 brothers still live there, and i am worried about how this is affecting them. My brothers are 18, and 14 and my sisters are 13 and 4. The 4 year old is technically my half sister, her dad is my step dad. But anyway, not long ago, my step dad pushed my mom and ended up really screwing up her ankle, she still has trouble driving and i think it was about 3 months ago. I don't think the fight was one sided, im sure my mom landed a few hits too, which in my mind only makes it worse. My 4 year old sister witnessed the whole thing, and my step dad spent the night in jail. Then just a couple weeks ago, my step dad ended up in jail again, i wont blatantly state the reason, but it was a kind of 'sting' operation, and didn't involve drugs, but in my opinion, I would NEVER have let him back into my house, or life EVER again. But my mom did. I flat out told her she was stupid for letting him come back, but then tonight i was over there with my 18 month old daughter, and they started fighting. I was outside with the baby and my sister to keep them away from the yelling, but i believe my step dad ended up throwing a coffee mug, and my mom would have been bashing him with a frying pan had my brother not taken it from her. I think this is a dangerous situation for my siblings, especially my youngest sister, however I'm scared of reporting anything, because i don't want them to stick her in foster care, and i don't know what else they would do. I refuse to send all my siblings to foster care because these two cant live together. It is my mom's house, she paid for it for 15 years alone before she met my step dad 5 years ago and he started helping. And he doesn't even work, so he really barely helps. I want him gone, and i don't know what to do. I think my mom would be furious if i took any measurement to get him out of all of our lives. It's horrible to hear a 4 year old say 'stupid dad, i hate him so much.' I don't know what to do anymore but im tired of watching my family suffer.

So I am thinking of adopting a kitty, but before I do I would like to find out what it's like to have one, so I know I make the decision. I have always had dogs, and when I was younger I desperately wanted a kitty, but my mom was allergic. Now that i'm older, and don't live with my mom, I think I would like to give this a try. Finance is not an issue, I just want to know what the best and worse of having a cat is? What makes them better, worse, or the same as dogs, and some common issues I might run into with a cat? Thanks so much!

Okay so my first baby is about 16 months old. Lately when i'm sitting still I feel something that feels like quickening but it seems like it might be just slightly higher than I remember. The only thing I can relate this with is actual quickening and it's so weird!

Anyway so for the past about 3 months I have been having two 4 day periods every other month, so basically the first month I bled 4 days out of the second and fourth week in the month, the next month nothing, so I took a test and got negative, blood test too and negative. then had two periods the next month. Now this month I have seen nothing again, but I'm feeling this strange quickening- like thing. Is there any explaination? My doctor told me when I got the blood test that sometimes your cycle will just do that, and that its not a big deal if there is no pain or stiffness that's out of the ordinary. What could this be?

Okay so i'm moving back in to my moms place in for a while, but she doesn't have internet, or a computer, and some of my schooling is online. I'm in Utah, so does any companies offer ONLY wireless internet for a single laptop? My laptop would be the only computer in the house, also if you know, what would the price range be?

Thanks in advance.

K so i'm making a cake for a friend's birthday, and its pretty large with three tiers. I'm great at decorating, its the baking that I have trouble with. I'm just wondering, for the biggest cake, i'm using a breakaway pan, where the edges basically widen and you can pull them off, you can find a pic of them on google, just search breakaway cake pan. But the problem is that the edges are done long before the middle of the cake, so when the middle is done the edges are hard, and trying to crumb coat is a mess, the edges pull right off, and yes i am chilling the cake before frosting. Can I cook this cake in a water bath or do something else to make it work? I coated the whole pan of a smaller tier with crisco, and quite a bit, and it seems to be mostly fine, the top is just a little crisp. Basically i just need to know what I can do to make this cake work? I am using boxed cakes as well... so yeah, help please!!!

So I'm 19 and my huband is 21 and we have a one year old daughter. We live in his moms basement and I can not stand it here anymore. My husband won't work and I'm in the process of getting through highschool. He didn't graduate either. My mom is willing to let me stay there until I can get on my feet, but I do not see how I can possibly get there going to school, and working, and taking care of my baby, all at once. All I can imagine out of this is that ill be screwed, thereis no one to watch the baby while I work and do school other than her dad, and if that's the case I may as well just leave her with him and never see her. I can't find a way to make anything work. Can anyone give me some advice. I don't see how I could afford a place and daycare working the part time that I would have to work. Ugghh someone please help?

I'm 19 my husband is 21 and we have a 1 year old daughter. We live with his mom and family, and he refuses to work. He says he doesn't have the motivation. The last time he had a job was before I got pregnant. I do online school and watch the baby while he plays xbox. Now he changes diapers and makes her food sometimes so he's not COMPLETELY useless. But I need him to work. We can't continue living on foodstamps and handouts in his moms basement forever. I just don't know what to do. Any advice? Thanks.

Okay so i've had a wacom bamboo pen for about a year now, and my dad just gave me a bamboo fun today. My GIMP program has NEVER had pressure sensitivity. I think it did the very first time i used it and thats it. So i cant get that to work, and now with my bamboo fun, the eraser tip wont work, and i don't know how to make that work either. If you can help me at all please do :( this is making me insane. I'm getting my photoshop next week but i have to have pressure sensitivity until then, i don't even know how i've lived this long haha! anyways, thanks in advance!

My dog is getting old, i still think he's got a good year or two left if not more but i would like to be prepared. He has been my best friend for 10 years now and has helped me through a ton of stuff, so i would like to have him buried when he goes. I'm just wondering if anyone has done this before and how much did it cost?

Okay so i missed my last period completely, no spotting, nothing. I am dude for next one in six days. I took like 7 HPTs and all were neg. Got a blood test on thursday, results on friday said neg. But now i just had horrible random pain in my left shoulder while i was laying on the couch, the pain is gone now that i am sitting upright on the computer. Should i be concerned that this is an ectopic tube rupture or just ignore it??????

Okay my period was supposed to start on Dec.23rd and it didn't. I have had four negative Preggo. Tests all were home ones. Every time I took one the horizontal line got fainter, the last one was barely visible, my boobs are pretty sore, and I've been pretty pissy lately. I was having unprotected sex on the days that I would have conceived if I was Preggo. My first babys Preggo test was positive instantly. So am I pregnant or is there something else going on?

I have this idea for an animal shelter donation charity thing. I am a tattoo artist, and both my roommate and husband are too. We are thinking of offering a small paw print tattoo to anyone who wants to donate 20 dollars or more to the animal shelters in our state. 98% of all proceeds will go to the shelters, the other 2% will go to us to get more supplies to continue the charity. I'm hoping it will benefit us by helping get our names out, and help the shelters too. I'm just wondering if it will go anywhere. How many of you would be into something like that, or willing to do it? Should i even make an attempt?
