motivation asked:


I notice alot of kids posting what do i do about this boy or this girl.
Or my friend. Or what size should my boobs be. Or asking sexual questions. I think yahoo should dedicate a part of yahoo answers for kids & teens.
No offense but as an adult I get uncomfortable with some of these questions that MINORS ask.

Why are kids forced to trick or treat for only an hour the day before Halloween?

Trixies Mama asked:


I remember when I was a kid, my brother and our friends would go trick or treating for hours, on the day of Halloween.

Nowadays, kids have to go trick or treating the day before Halloween, even if Halloween is on a Friday (like this year!), and they only get to go for an hour or so.

Does anyone else think this is unfair, and that parents should be able to take their kids on the traditional day of trick or treating?

Opinions?

What is the best way to organize a Kids Fundraising Event Scavenger Hunt?

Terri T asked:


We are planning on organizing a fundraiser which would be a scavenger hunt taking place at Fort York in Toronto. The idea is to have the kids and their families attend a fun filled event where they can all be involved and raise money for a non prfit charity. We would be expecting about 1000 kids under the age of 12 and their parents and families. We are hoping to build a list of ideas and resources that will help us brainstorm and plan this event.

I have read through many questions here and it floors me the way that kids spell these days. I can not comprehend how they passed high school.

Why do kids have to wear socks without shoes in McDonalds play areas?

Posted in Kids at 9:18 pm by Amy

Lisa S asked:


A lady complained to the manager about some kids not wearing socks and they made them get off the play area. It’s still summer weather and kids wear sandles without socks. I felt so sorry for the little kids.

Where can I find anger management classes for kids in my area?

Posted in Kids at 9:52 pm by Amy

Kids
Katastro asked:


I have a kid I work with that could use an anger management class. Something he could do by himself or with me, but in a group setting with other people, preferably other kids. Any ideas or resources? I guess I’m looking for websites or phone numbers - someplace where I can find classes. I live in California; looking for something in or around the Sacramento area. Willing to travel a little bit.

What do you do when your kids push you to the snapping point?

llllll_amanda_lllllll asked:


I have 2 kids, a 2.5 year old girl and a 7 week old boy. I have days (and i believe all parents have these days) where they drive me batty, especially my daughter.
When i get to the snapping point i put my daughter in her room with the gate in the door way, lay my son in his bassinet, take the baby monitor onto the porch with me and i calm down.

What do you do when you’ve had enough?
