I watch lots of old movies and read lots of old books. I come across all kinds of interesting speech patterns, words, phrases, etc. Some I can still find in today's dictionary but there are many others. I would love to be able to find out what these things mean exactly and where they come from etc.

My daughter shows all the signs they say to watch for: she wants to sit on the potty, she tells me when she is wet and wants her pull-up off right away, she is often dry all night. The day care is ready to start working with her because she shows all these signs, I guess I am too, she just seems so young. Advice and your experience please. Thanks.

My 18 year old daughter is in a tough situation and wondering what y'all think or suggest. She has a 7 month old baby and left the father due to domestic violence. She was in a domestic abuse shelter until she couldn't stay there anymore. She is on waiting lists for longer-term housing. In the meantime, if she stays with me then she is no longer considered homeless and loses the chance to benefits of these programs. She is asking what do y'all think she should do?

My DVD player started saying the disc's playback feature may not be working. I know not all my DVD's went bad at the same time all of a sudden. Is there something I can try before I take it to a repair shop. I bought a CD cleaner, it has little bristles on it. It plays in the DVD player and I can hear it just fine, of course there is no picture on it though.

I know my friends username and she knows mine. How do we find each other and look at questions asked and answered, etc.?

How do you feel about it? Do you feel guilty? Do you rejoice? Do you think you are a drain on the economy? I can be at my job for 8 hours a day and do absolutely no work. It's not always like that but at least 60% of the time it is.

My friend had a car wreck, he was responsible for it, the man in the other car died. He is charged with manslaughter. My friend tested positive for cocaine, undetermined whether he was actually high at the time though, just know he had done cocaine within last 48 hours. He says he fell asleep. He has one previous felony from 1992, not violent or drug-related. He has been 16 months in county jail waiting for plea-bargain or trial.

I'm really unsure about dating etiquette. When I meet a new guy when do I give him my phone number or do I let him offer his first? Do you wait on him to ask you out, when? Give some dating tips. BTW I am and adult, 36, female, single mom.

The left side of my left hand and all of my little finger feels like it is asleep. It's been about 4 days now. I have had carpal tunnel before and this is similar but does not go away when my wrist is straight or when I am not doing data entry. I hate to miss work for a doctor's appointment and make the co-pay for him to tell me he doesn't know what it is.

What do y'all think about this? He refused to put his name on the birth certificate. He didn't want to be responsible. By the way, why did he have a choice there? Should she go to the Attorney General and let them start a case for child support, etc.?

My daughter is 18 mos. old. She is ready to move up to the next class at her daycare. We are moving to a new home June 1 and will have to move her to a new daycare. Should she just stay in the class she is in until then? Should I go ahead and take her to the daycare now? This seems like so many changes and I want to give her as few as possible at once. What do you parents think I need to consider and how do I help her transition? Is this harder on me than her? Thanks.
