I have a little boy who just turned 4 this past April. He really has always been pretty laid back and an easy child to raise. I always did time outs with him, and with his personality they were always extremely effective. My question is about when he gets excited. When my son gets excited, he seems to become jumpy and get the “ants in the pants syndrome”. An example would be for Mothers Day we met my in laws @ a restaurant for breakfast. He was excited that we were all there together for breakfast (meeting @ a restaurant is something new). While there he sat next to my husband which in my opinon is an AWESOME daddy, but much more laid back than I am with parenting and pretty much everything. While there, my son was sitting in his seat, but saying things like “chocolate, chocolate” —while drinking his chocolate milk, and extremely energetic and bouncy (i don’t know how to explain it). My niece (my sister in laws daughter) who is about 10 months older wasn’t doing any of this and was just sitting there quietly eating her breakfast. I got upset by my son’s behavior but didn’t say anything except—”Calm down”—and my husband would say things like “i got it” and then just allowed this behavior. At one point, my son was leaning on my husband during breakfast as if they were snuggling @ the table ( it looked very awkward). At another point, my husband put his hand over my sons mouth (in a very non aggressive way) just to try to get him to stop being so loud (which tells me that he agreed that his behavior was a little too much). When I spoke with my husband in the car, he told me this was normal behavior for a 4 year old when they get excited. Maybe getting excited is normal, but I do want to teach my son better ways to express excitement rather than being soo jumpy. On a positive note, he sat in his seat, he didn’t run around, he was very pleasant and respectful to everyone. Any tips, suggestions on what to do about this “excited” problem??

I’ve been trying to find jobs at home for the summer since April. I’ve replied to many online ads (more than I can keep track of). I’ve also gone in and applied to over ten places ranging from retail, office, restaurants, fast food, even KMart & Walmart. I’ve gotten no call backs and no interviews. It’s getting ridiculous. I’m a second year college student, but i’ve never held a “real” job - just temporary things around campus. Other than no job, my resume is pretty good. I’ve got good grades, I’m actively involved on campus, things like that. I’m pretty desperate for a job, as I’m paying for college on my own and financial aid isn’t covering everything. I’ve got rent to pay starting in July, and I’m worried about how I’ll pay it if I can’t get a job now. Any advice? I feel as though I’m running out of options and I have no idea what to do.

What is the fastest and surest way to get a job in California? I am an 18 year old female who just came back from the Philippines last April 2009. I was living there for 3 years (2006 - 2009). I went to college there and took one semester of computer technology. I will be trying to get my drivers permit next week. The method I’ve been using in finding a job was by asking workers in stores if they were hiring, calling a few of them by phone and applying online. I’ve been doing that since last year. I’ve only been trying to apply in stores and fast food restaurants. Are there other jobs I could look for besides jobs in stores and restaurants? And how can I go about applying? Any tips on how i can score an interview?

Hey I am a 16 year old girl (17 in april..) and would very much like to apply for an after school and weekend job (then would become a summer job once school is out). It seems that the only places hiring or that I can apply too are restaurants. Clothing stores and any other random stores near where I live you must be 18. Can I work at a restaurant even though I am highly allergic to nuts??
well if in a restaurant there would be nuts there…and i’d most likely be a bus boy or waitress

Sadly, it’s my anniversary with my boyfriend and we want to go out to eat not necessarily melting pot but any nice restaurant, in the Miami Area are they going to be open?

We want to hike, see scenery, go to the beach, see waterfalls, horseback ride, and go snorkeling. We would like to stay at a resort that is beachfront and close to restaurants, etc. What would people who have been to Hawaii recommend?
We are going in April of this year.
