| » | tantrums My son is 7 years old. He is very smart and does well at school in all areas. He has a tantrum problem though. They are worse and more often when he is tired and we do everything to make sure he's in bed by 7:30pm. You never know what will set off the tantrum and 99% of the time it's something very small.

| » | Afraid of becoming my step-father... so, my real dad left when I was 8 month old, and eventually my mom remarried. For 15 years I've lived with him and hated it. Everyone in the family hates inviting us places because of him. He has no job and has instead chosen to yell at his children for a living. My greatest fear is that I will become him one day. I look at myself and see things in common, and it scares me to death. I've tried talking to my mom but she refuses to hear it. She says its just a teenager thing. Please help me...
