• Schwarzenegger's son faces 'a lot of confusion'

  Thu May 19, 2011
  • Why will you not let this child alone? I am responding only to the headline as I refuse to read the article. It is difficult for him because you have to beat this story to death. It is none of our business who this child is.

• Simple checklist may spot signs of autism by age 1

  Thu Apr 28, 2011
  • All this will do is alarm a bunch of parents who won't really be able to get a diagnosis until age 3. Most of the children identified did not have autism in the long run. Many who are diagnosed and "cured" at an early age never had it in the first place.

• With the release of the president’s long-form birth certificate from the state of Hawaii, do you think this will put the “birther” issue to rest?

  • Why is simply proving you are a native born citizen before you are put on a ballot nuts? I had to provide my kid's certificate simply to enroll her in school. Of course it should be required.

• With the release of the president’s long-form birth certificate from the state of Hawaii, do you think this will put the “birther” issue to rest?

  • As a Republican, I never believed he was born anywhere but Hawaii. But.. this should have been released a long time ago. There was no reason to withhold it other than willful stubborness on Obama's part. He is the one that let it spiral out of control.

• UGG boots: 'Shearling' agony for feet?

  Tue Dec 14, 2010
  • A pair of comfy warm UGGs is a necessity for this Minnesota stay at home mon. It didn't even top 0 here yesterday, yet the kids still have school, the errands have to be done, the dog has to be walked. Any pair of boots probably isn't great for the arches, but most aren't as warm.

• Was it unfair to say ballerina had ‘one sugarplum too many’?

  Mon Dec 13, 2010
  • Apparently the ballet company does not think she is fat, or she would not be dancing with them. Thousands of girls dream to be as accomplished as this woman is. She is an incredible combination of grace and athleticism. She's georgeous in every way.

• Season's first snow buries Twin Cities

  • I am forced to live in this place under protest for my spouse's job. There would not have been many accidents if they would pretreat the roads and then plow and salt them with all of the tax dollars we pay in this sociallist state.

• Bad hair day: Boy, 4, barred from pre-K for long locks

  Mon Nov 1, 2010
  • Fact is the mother told the school the kid was getting his hair cut by a certain date. They said okay.He didn't do it because the TV crews weren't there on the date they had set to cut his hair because of a storm.

• Lights out, phones on: Many teens text all night long

  Mon Nov 1, 2010
  • You can't do this with a college freshman, but it should be treated the way the phone was when I was a kid for high school and younger. No phone in a kids room, no calls (or texts) after a certain time or during homework time. It's really simple when you are a parent. Make the rule and enforce it.

• Some cities ban teens from trick-or-treating

  • Stop telling 12 and 13 year olds that they are not children and can't act like them. I just do not understand today's mentality. 7 year olds are too old for toys, and should be getting their nails done instead. Hannah Montana for the preschool set.
