Rub a dub dub, when is it time to graduate from the tub? Almost three quarters of you have babies that love the bath, but there comes a time when children start eyeing the shower. We're not quite there yet, though my 2-year-old son definitely wonders why his big sister sometimes washes off standing up.
When did your lil one move to a big kid shower?

An outing to the movies can make a parent nervous. My kids both had their first silver screen experience as infants zipped up in my husband's jacket. For older tots, some movie theaters offer up booster seats to make your lil ones more comfortable or serve kid meals during the film. With kiddie-geared Madagascar 2 currently in theaters, we're curious how old your children were when you first took them to the movies?

Does a swig of the bottle help the medicine go down? With the onset of cold and flu season, sixty-five percent of you will give your children medicine and trying to get your darling to take his full dose can be a battle. The creators of the Medibottle ($15) have designed a bottle with a syringe attachment that tricks the tot into swallowing meds. The novel approach allows the tyke to take his prescription without ever tasting it.
Would you buy this bottle?
Earlier this week, Motrin removed its controversial moms' advertising campaign after tech-savvy mamas created an online uproar over the campaign's tongue-in-cheek positioning of babies as fashion accessories. Did you find the ad insensitive to mothers?
Siblings have their spats, but when push comes to shove most parents step in. This was not the case when one father's 2-year-old tot came to blows with another child his age. The dad, a special operations soldier at Fort Bragg, picked up a camera, egged on the fight, prevented an older child from stepping in, and posted the footage on YouTube. I am not posting the video because it is so hard to stomach. The father only cut the tape and ended the altercation once the boy was bleeding. Do you think this dad deserves to lose custody of his small son?
