I am replacing the bulb for the right front headlight on my minivan. The clamp that holds the bulb in place is missing. The bulb is not secure. Can I use some tin foil to hold it in place? Is it safe?

We are planning a family vacation overseas. We have a choice: 1. Fly direct 15 hours to our destination (no lay-overs). 2. Fly 10 hours to London, spend the night, and then continue our flight the next day. The ticket prices are almost the same. Question: Has anyone done this type of trip with young kids? What was your experience? Which would you choose? We just want to make it easiest on the kids.

Do you find that your child's meds work well one day and maybe not so well another? If my son has the slightest cold or allergy his meds seem to weaken and we start having bad days at school. Is this true for others? How do you handle colds and allergies. We cannot give him cold meds because it makes his ADHS meds even less effective. What do you do?

My son, who is 5, has severe anxiety at the dentist. Our family dentist referred us to a pediatric dentist who wants to use anesthesia or sedation on my son. He would be hooked up to an i.v., etc. She said that "laughing gas" or oral sedation would not work for him. She also quoted a price of $600 per sedation visit. Has anyone had experience with this? I'd like any input. I am concerned about my son's experience with this and the cost.

If my home value jumps up in the next few years how will Prop 13 effect how much my property taxes may go up? Does it effect the assessed value or only the percentage of the assessed value that may be taxed? I'm so confused about this.

My 5 year old has just been prescribed Metadate for his ADHD. So far, I am not seeing a big change. It's been 3 days. Has anyone had experience with this? Does the effect build over time? Should I call his Dr. and ask about upping his dosage? I'm not sure what to expect.

My son is in his 2nd semester of kindergarten. He turned 5 a week after starting kindergarten in August, so he's a bit younger than some of the other kids. He has had consistent problems with sitting still and staying on task. It was gotten so bad that his teacher has said that there isn't any way he will be able to move on to 1st grade. I think she is implying that we should take him out of school for the remainder of this year. Has anyone had a similar experience? How did you handle it?

I purchased a home and closed escrow in late October. The escrow office has yet to get my title insurance policy to me. Is this standard? I have called and sent emails and they always say that they are working on it. What gives? Should I be worried?
