  • Why would my husbands previous employer tell him to file on a W-2 that he never received wages for?

    My husband worked for a company and received 2 w-2's. One matches with his last pay stub for the year and the other one he never received and money for. The company is telling him that both w-2's are correct and that it is ok for him to file. I am not talking about hundreds of dollars that he didn't receive I am talking 45,000 that he received a w-2 for and never received wages for nor was he aware of this income!When he calls the company to get details for this w-2 they keep making excuses and with the last call they told him to file and call them and they will pay him the difference! They are offering him a payout for collecting on wages never received. Is it our right to ask to see the supporting documents that were used to generate this w-2? as in canceled checks . He does not plan to file until this problem is resolved. we are guessing that this is a case of embezzlement.

  • what can i do for a dry cough?

    I have been sick for the past 3 weeks. First a sinus infection, sore throat w zebra stripes.....strep test was negative and an ear infection and now i have this terrible dry cough. There are times where i feel kind of breathless or my chest feels a little tight until i cough something up. I already did 10 days of amoxicillin. I am sick of this already. Saturday morning i woke up and felt good. Cough was almost gone, throat didn't hurt and i was not stuffy. Today i woke up with a terrible headache, sore throat , stuffy nose and cough. Is it possible this could be allergy related? Is it bronchitis? i am just sick and tired of being sick and tired.My main concern is this annoying cough! Any suggestions preferably natural would be greatly appreciated.

  • Why would he say this?

    My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 4 years. He has 2 kids and we have 1 together. Recently I did a little Christmas shopping and he said to me " don't spend to much on them because i will have trouble paying you back" This statement got right under my skin because that shows me that he doesn't see US as being a family. I look at what we have and see a family. It may not be what most see as a family but I do. Also we have a mutual friend who ratted him out. He told our friend that he is NEVER getting married again and My boyfriend tells me "i am not saying I am never getting married again" I really think he is just telling me what I want to hear. I am beginning to think that it may be time to go our separate ways. Has anyone else been in this situation?

  • How can I get my step daughters and husband to help around the house?

    How can I get them to help me out? I work 1 full time job and a part time job on the weekends and still have to come home and clean up after all of them. I have tried chore lists. I have tried allowance. I have tried being nice. I have tried being mean. I have tried reverse psychology and I have even tried sharing my feelings on the situation. NOTHING works. They are 8 and 10 and we also have a 15 month old together. My 15 month old helps more than those 3 do. Any suggestions? Am I crazy to be upset about this?

    I also have to add that my husband is currently unemployed and home all day with out daughter.

  • Can your teeth make you sick?

    I have had many abscessed teeth over the past few years. Lately i have been feeling run down, tired and just not well. I have 3 broken teeth right now and cant afford to get them fixed. I am being treated right now for 2 abscessed teeth and just from being on the antibiotics i have been feeling better in general. Less fatigue and just a greater sense of well being. Is it possible that i am literally sick from me teeth all the time? If so is that the reason why i feel like crap all the time?

    serious answers only.

  • Anyone else in this situation?

    I have been in a relationship for 3 years this april. We have 1 daughter together and he has 2 from a previous marriage. I am not asking for marriage but he says that he will not get married again. Is it wrong of me to be bothered by this? I do all the wifely duties...cooking, cleaning, shopping, take care of our daughter and pay the bills and i work a full time job too. He is currently unemployed and cares for our daughter while i am at work. Recently i feel that he isnt giving me the opportunity to parent our daughter. At night when she wakes he wont let me comfort her back to sleep. I feel as if i am being denied my own child. I also feel hurt that there is no chance for marriage. I feel like i am good enough to do the wifely duties but not good enough to be a wife. Why do i feel this way?

  • I do 45-60 minutes of cardio a day why and i not losing weight?

    I have always ate a balanced diet accept for the occasional fast food. I increased my fruit and veggie intake increased my exercise and i have not lost a single pound or lost a single inch. In fact i have gained weight! i eat about 1300-1500 calories a day. i am 4'9'' and 138 pounds. i had a baby 7 months ago so i am wondering if that is playing a part. I have only been working out (cardio) for a little over 2 weeks. i know you cant lose fast but my co workers are doing less and they all have lost at least 5-8 pounds in 2 weeks. What am i doing wrong ? what can i do to jump start my weight loss?

  • What age should girls know how to take care of their bodies?

    I have 2 step daughters ages 7 and 9 (almost 10). Recently their father had to give them a hygiene talk because they went 5 days without a shower . They live with their mother full time and he gets them every other weekend and once during the week. He tries to tell his ex about the situation and she plays dumb. The girls are never showered when they come to stay and they can never remember the last time they took a shower. They are getting older now and their bodies are starting to change. I dont know what we can do to get them to realize that they need to shower atleast every other day if not every day.They dont even understand the importance of changeing their socks and underwear every day! This last time we had them they were wearing the same socks for 6 days and they were stinking up our house. We didn't realize that they were the same socks because they have identical socks at our house. We just figured they had stinky shoes and set them outside to get some air. What age do you think girls should know how to take care of their bodies and their own hygiene? I know that when i was 5 i would make my own bath and make sure i was clean and by the time i was their age i was showering every day without anyone telling me to ! I dont want them to be the stinky girls in their school. Dont you think they should know this stuff by now? Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I have already taken them to pick out soap and shampoo and smell good stuff and they use it when they come to our house. I have gotten them stuff to take home (little girly gift baskets). My husband and i have talked with them about how they need to take care of their bodies but it is like they cant grasp the importance of it all. Please help!

  • Can formual cause congestion?

    My 4 month old daughter has been exclusively breastfed since birth. Recently i have been dealing with supply issues and had to supplement with formula (similac advance w earlyshield). I usually give her 1 morning feeding a day by breast and she doesn't seem to get congested BUT after she gets formula she seems to get congested and sometimes pretty bad. I asked the doc about this and he said it couldn't be the formula and to keep giving it to her. She has been on the formula for about 3-4 weeks and it has been a continuous problem and didn't really make a connection until this week since she had a cold for a couple of weeks prior. Does anyone think the formula could be causing the congestion or has anyone experienced this before.
