My son is 2 and I have one on the way.  I have heard that seat belts can be installed on the lower bed so that you can actually have 4 people in the truck.  Is this true?  And is there an age limit?  What if I own the truck?

My husband is an otr driver too.  His company will only allow you to take one person at a time.  The person must sign a waiver incase of an accident.  Also the passanger must be over the age of 12.  If you are driving for a national company chances are you will not be alowed to take children under the age of 12.  You will have to ask your road manager.  My husband takes our dog on the road every so often.  It helps him be less lonely.  Some companys will let you take pets, but you might need to sign a waiver and pay a small deposit.  It's better than spending your time and money with a lot lizard.  LOL!!!  God luck.

This isn't nagging and you have every right to be concerned and force him to make a change.  First of all, he is putting your children at risk and no parent should tolerate that from another.  At best they will grow up thinking it is ok to not wear a seat belt and possibly end up like your friends.  Also he needs to realize that this issue is about love.  By wearing a seat belt and being more catious when he drives he is respecting your relationship and the love that you and your kids have for him.  Does he really want to leave you and the kids alone simply because he didn't bother to wear a seat belt and some idiot ran in to him.  It isn't just about him, it is about your entire family that supposedly he is the head of and responsible for.  He may be able to control the car and be a great driver but no one can control what some other driver is doing and so all you can do is be as safe as possible.  Loving some one enough to want them to live a long life is not nagging so keep it up.

First of all, it's adorable that your son wants to "See army trucks"  He sounds like a cool kid and a badass.\n\nSecond, the link in the post above me is a good source of Military bases and their locations; but it isnt all you need to know.  The kind of trucks your son is talking about are called M-35s, M-900s, M-1078/83's and Humvees and they are NOT at every military base.  I would hate for you guys to travel all the way to a base to find that they dont have prime movers.  So make sure you call ahead and ask for those trucks.\n\nAs far as talking to a General, that's pretty unlikely.  Generals are very rare and very busy.  I couldnt talk to a General if I wanted to.\nBut if you need help with the truck issue I'd be happy to help any way that I can.

They are so excited they want to get a reward. If you really have a problem -take the child aside and talk to them- depends on the age- speak with parents! Glad for your new job!!!

i am not sure if there is a legal age to have sex. f a 2 year old has sex with a 2 year old they wont be arested for it. It is more matter of what age can you have sex with anyone you want(regardless of age) and it be consider consentual. that depens on the state but an 18 year old can have sex with who ever they want to because they are legaly an adult. in my state you have to be with in to years of the age of the person you have sex with( if they are 18 or over) for in mot to be consider stat. rape

Ok, soccer dad.  Van's are so lame.  The family wagon of yesteryear.  Stick with the SUV.  They now have tv's and stuff to entertain the kids.  And you look way cooler.

Yes, it's most polite to offer up the front passenger seat to other occupants before grabbing it for yourself a second time. And besides, what if one of your traveling companions gets sick in the back? Going and returning, both as a backseat passenger, gets me sick, I have to change around.

The most novel idea, I think, is the carseat. But I'd like to know what happens if a bigger baby is sitting in it.\nIt looked like a bigger baby would hit his head on the sides, if it went into motion. \nI could be wrong, but that's just how it looked when it was being demonstrated. Otherwise. Great idea!\nAfter that, I like the game. Children, today, appear to need all the help they can get with spelling.

A friend for the most part but I guess it depends on the childs surrounding environment and what they see every day. I'm open and honest with my 3 y/o and just a couple days ago I was at the gas station where an officer pulled up and we walked right up to him and started chit-chatting with him. He let her sit in his truck and take a look around at everything. He explained to her what happens when he picks a bad guy up, where they have to sit, and she saw where they put the kanines in the back and everything. She got out and shook his hand and said thank you! She's only three and I'm pretty proud of her for being so brave and understanding that 'police are friends!' :o)

except for the sleeping in the same bed part, it was the same for me when i was 2 years old!  My parents got divorced and he got a new gf soon after, and lived together!  (I had to sleep with her son, 10 months older then me) \n\nWhy cant she sleep somewheres else?  Is there not another bedroom available or a couch.  or maybe 2 is a little young to sleep on the couch.  Maybe you could tell her fatther how you feel about that and suggest that the gf sleep on the couch for the time that your daughter is there.  If that's what you're worried about. (the daughter sleeping with her dad and a new gf..)

Um... I'm pretty sure they can't ticket you in your own driveway as it's not a public roadway.  You can DEFINTELY contest the violation on that grounds if it really was in your driveway.  It's not actually illegal to let your 5-year-old drive the car down the driveway if you want to, let alone to not wear a seatbelt.\n\nThat said, if you're not wearing a seatbelt and you get in an accident your dead body could hit another car when it flies out the windshield, and cause a second accident.  Besides, if it does all come down to money, for people who don't have health insurance, the state gets stuck with the ER bill after a car accident, so it's in the state's best financial interest to make that bill as small as possible.\n\nSeriously, though, I don't see how it could seriously hurt anyone but yourself and those who care about you if you're not wearing a seatbelt, and I'm all for letting morons do the species a favor by removing themselves from the gene pool, so why not let people decide for themselves if they're going to wear a seatbelt.  Not that not wearing a seatbelt is really indicative of the decision-making skills that distinguish an adult from a child.  After all, the point of requiring childen to wear seatbelts is that they don't have the decision-making skills to make a good choice, and doesn't chosing not to wear a seatbelt demonstrate that same lack of ability to make responsible choices?

I am also for lowering the drinking age back to 18.  I am 31, mother of 2 girls, and a health teacher.  I would definitely vote it back in.  Once again, the federal government gives out millions to states who pass certain laws, this is one of them.  And if everyone did their research before they answered this question, they would know that it is not the 18-20 age group that ranks highest in drunk driving.  Change the drunk driving law, first offense:attempted murder.  In my opinion that is exactly what they are doing.  But punishing adults?  Give me a break.  I know repsonsible 18 year olds, and yet my dad who is 57 is a drunk and always has been.  Age has nothing to do with it.  If 18 is a legal adult, then it should be the age for everything!!!

If she was driving parental unit's car before getting this one, she might be covered by their policy for a short period of time...\nIf she had a car and it was insured before buying this truck, that policy should cover her also for a short period of time.  Check with the family insurance agent.\n\nthey might be able to issue her a statement showing coverage for that time.\nOr see if the Dealership has a master policy covering the car until she brought in proof of insurance.

About 25, at that age you are still young enough to enjoy them and run around in the yard.  When people have children really late in life I always think about how they are lessening their chances of seeing their grandchildren.  I am 32 and I have a 71/2 y/o son.  I'm divorced now.  If I remarried I would consider having additional children if my mate wanted them, however, I really don't think that another marriage or other kids are in the cards for me.  When you become a parent the focus is not on you and your needs anymore, Its all about what is best for the child.  To me anything above 3 kids is too many.  I would not want to have so many kids that we couldn't ride in a regular car.  I know families who have big vans just to fit all their kids, that would suck.\n\nGood luck and think hard before having kids, you can't go back! ;)
