  • @ welcome — i’ve had one root canal and you’re right, it was a multi-day process… but when i’m son had a cavity in a back molar, they capped it that same day. it’s kind of a “mini root canal.” It was a one day process that took about an hour. His dentist told me that the reason they capped the molar was because it’s one of the last that kids lose, so it’s more likely to break since it would get brittle over time.

  • My kids’ dentist is amazing. He is by far the most popular pediatric dentist in our city, and my children adore him and his office. They have mrs. Pacman in the children’s waiting area and a real parrot that loves talking to the kids. All that being said– they expect children to go back alone after the child’s first visit. My kids usually go back together (they’re 6 & 4), and I have absolutely no qualms about them going back without me. I trust their dentist. Children act differently with their parents around, and most kids act more brave and confident in the office without their parents (according to him and his staff). So a dentist that has that preference isn’t necessary shady or shoddy. Only my 6 yr old has ever had a cavity and after they took him back they realized it would need to be capped, they came out to tell me before it was done, but it was certainly explained to me. I don’t know if the dentist in this story was dishonest or the mother didn’t pay enough attention, but to me it’s odd that a 4 yr old is already missing that many teeth!!

  • I actually think he is just as good looking as she is. They kind of have that frat boy/sorority sister look about them. If neither of them had a title or star potential, I wouldn’t be surprised if I saw them out in public together.

  • honestly, it isn’t that she isn’t pretty — she is… but i just didn’t understand the need to go on and on about it. my husband and i just kind of made confused faces at each other and just shrugged. finally my husband said, “let it go already”… kind of the same feeling/opinion i had. it wasn’t that she was shown or mentioned — it was the length it went on. there are lots of beautiful people in this world, but the people watching the game, weren’t watching it in hopes of getting a few lengthy shots of the QB’s girlfriend.

  • Mitt seems to be hitting his groove now. not as stiff as he was in the beginning.

  • @ANDYET — good to see you looked at your map, yet failed to read the article. the article states that the poor in those red states will still be voting democrat — wow. way to prove your point there, buddy.

  • @tradition: I don’t care if you choose not to pray. Why is it so threatening to atheists to have chrisitans pray? If I went to a school where the majority of people were Jewish I would expect for there to be some speak of the religious pratices of their faith. It doesn’t mean I have to accept their beliefs into my own belief system… It just means religious tolerance. Which is something athiests completely lack. I really wish they’d read the constitution before they try quoting it. Hint: seperation of church and state isn’t in there. And even if it were.. It doesn’t mean that no one can pray!!’

    ok.. so maybe i was the only girl that clicked on this to see it better. lol.

  • i think my original post didn’t convey what i was trying to say, i guess… but what i was saying was not that EVERY son, always, at some point, definitely, positively asks his mom to paint his nails. that isn’t true, obviously….

    what i was trying to say was that some boys are going to try to emotionally bond with moms through interests of the mom. it’s what we as humans do… when we like someone we try to get closer by sharing interests. i go to baseball games with my husband because he loves baseball and although it was not an interest of mine before, i enjoy sharing with him something that HE enjoys so much. does this make me a lesbian because i watch baseball? if my little girl likes marching around and playing with her brother’s army men, is she going to be a lesbian? if her favorite color is blue is she transgender? if she wants to wear a baseball hat to the store am i forcing my child into an alternative lifestyle? this is just ridiculous. if all it takes to make a kid gay is a little of the color pink… i’m guessing the kid was going to be gay regardless.
