2. Put the least used toys and more decorative toys on the high shelves since they do not play with it anyways.

3. Teach with your child organizational skills. Do not just scream at them to clean their room and keep it clean. You have to teach them how to be organized. And make sure that you teach your child to clean up one mess before they take out and make another.

4. Clean it out and throw things away. You have to get rid of all that clutter. Donate or put away all the out of season kids clothing. Take toys that they child has outgrown and donate them to kids that will actually play with them again.

5. Get small storage bins to put away loose items like legos, and blocks. Try to color coordinate it not only for this child but it is a lot nicer to look at rather than the regular white or clear containers.

6. Get some of those hanging cubes and hanging shoe racks. It helps to get the things off the floor and then the kids have a place to put them rather than just throwing them in the closet or under the bed.

7. Keep things out of sight but close at hand. Your child needs that school bag on a regular basis but you don't want to look at it all day - get a hook for behind the bedroom door to store it there.

8. Get an under bed trundle to store sheets, sweaters or even more toys rather than just throwing things under the bed. This way you can pull the trundle out when you need things rather than crawling under the bed.

9. Set that routine. Make sure that the kids clothes are put away and FOLDED in their drawers and the papers are put away in the desk and not sprawled all over the desk. Set aside 10 minutes a night to put things in their place.

10. Make a day of it with your child. Make it fun and enjoyable and make sure that they have some input on where they would like their stuff!

Your main goal, as a parent, is to teach your child. Since kids will begin learning at a very early age (you'd be surprised what they can pick up even right out of the womb), most parents will agree that it is important to begin to teach your children basic values and family structure at a very early age. Sure, no child needs to know the deep interworks of relationships before they learn to spell, but like it or not, a child is going to begin to form his or her basic ideas of right and wrong much earlier than you think.
Teaching your kids basic right and wrong is not one of those things you do in one sit down conversation. Think about when you were a child. Did you learn all about the idea of right and wrong at one time? Chances are, while specific events helped you find your way, the basic ideas of right and wrong were instead slowly learned through the years.

I know it sounds complex, but don't worry, in a way it's not. There is no need to panic and think "Oh my gosh, how the heck am I going to teach my kid these life altering lessons?!?" Teaching these lessons are much easier than you would think. First, take a look at yourself. Since most kids are going to learn lessons from you gradually ask yourself this: how well do you grasp the idea of wrong versus right? Do you think of yourself as a good person who you would want your child to look up to? Like it or not, your child is going to emulate you. For the formative years you are your child's role model and they want nothing more than to be like mommy and daddy.

These are just a few things to sit back and think about. Strangely parenting can be both harder than you think, yet more basic then you could ever imagine. The best policy is to follow your gut. Chances are you know a lot more then you might think you know on how to raise a child. Never hesitate to learn more through the use of family help books as well.

The absence of proper auto emergency kits and first aid kits in cars can prove very costly. Accident survivors may succumb to death in the absence of emergency medical care or first aid. Many accident victims have come out as survivors of automobile accidents as they had disaster kits in their cars. Statistical records show that motor vehicle collisions are one of the leading preventable causes of death in the United States. Since accidents do not come with a warning, acquainting yourself with proper first aid supplies in your car can save you in life risk situations.

What all should you have in your auto emergency kit? When it comes to long distance travel, a road emergency kit should be selected based on the road conditions, distance of the journey, the environment, weather as well as the traffic conditions on the road. Keep these factors in mind while deciding what should be there in your kit and what can be left behind. Some of the basic items to help you get back on the road quickly and safely include the following.

Since tire bursts or slow leaks are a common cause of accidents, carrying a 12 Volt tire pump or an aerosol tire inflator is necessary.

A car battery charger or simple jumper cables that you can use to start the car if it has failed without warning. It works wonders if charged fully.

Duct tape and wire to fix windows or pipes are other important items to carry in your automobile emergency kit.

A fire extinguisher.

A flash light if you are driving at night or have to cover a long distance that might include night-time driving.

If it is winter, carry ice scrapers, solar blankets, and heating sticks to keep you warm.

If you are stranded in your car a few food bars and some water will be needed.

Your auto emergency kit should have a sharp pocket knife to cut seat belts and duct tapes if required.

The basic first aid supplies are cotton balls, plastic bandages, more wet naps, large gauze, and rubber gloves are a must.

Cleansing agent/soap and antibiotic towelettes for disinfection.

Antibiotic ointment to prevent infection.

Adhesive bandages, sterile dressings and surgical tapes.

Eye-cleansing solutions and burn ointment.

Over-the-counter medicines such as pain relievers and anti-diarrhea medications.

All of these will help accident victims to survive a crash before the paramedics and other rescue services arrive.

Last but not the least is an injury-information card that describes the symptoms, treatment, the cognitive rehabilitation and the recovery from any mishap prior to getting professional help.

By now you must have an idea that how important it is to carry an auto emergency kit in your car before stepping out of home. After all, your safety is in your hands. So, what are you waiting for? Just order for emergency car kit and enjoy a safe and peaceful journey.

This is where the new book Dads and Autism: How to Stay in the Game, (www.dadsandautism.com) from Altruist Publishing separates itself from the pack. The author, Emerson Donnell experienced the heartbreaking distance in his son's eyes first hand. When coming home at the end of the day there was no acknowledgement of his arrival, no recognition or want of affection that children and parents naturally crave. But instead of giving up and departing as so many fathers do, Donnell decided to do something about it.

"For me, the greatest heartache was not being able to connect with my son. In speaking with other fathers I soon found I wasn't alone, but there is so little out there to help with this issue. I realized that developing proper affectionate behaviors in my son was more important than teaching him how to properly use a spoon or match colors. I needed to break through the grey shell of autism and steal back my son's humanity."

Through a great amount of research and trial and error, Donnell established a systematic program specifically designed to elicit proper emotion and affectionate behaviors to enable a more healthy family dynamic. These therapies are derived as a hybrid of Greenspan and ABA. Subscribing to the mantra of Greenspan, Donnell realized the importance of first establishing yourself as a relevant figure in your child's world. But to put this on the fast track, he employed ABA trials. Donnell terms them DAT's or "Discrete Affectionate Trials." The trials focus on very specific behaviors that revolve around developing proper emotion, affection and a loving family dynamic. "They have had a profound effect on Little Emerson, from developing independent affectionate family greetings, interactive play, potty training, negating temper tantrums, developing speech and even appropriately opening and enjoying birthday gifts."

"Parents shouldn't necessarily expect affectionate behaviors to be taught by therapists directly to the children. I believe these therapies are best coached to the parents who can then exercise them with their children in the comfort of their home."

Donnell continues to emphasize how important it is to include affectionate therapy in an autistic child's regimen. "Developing affection in your children can arguably be the most important therapy a child first receives as it addresses many issues all at once. Teaching parents to develop bonds and proper affection in their children nurtures a more natural relationship between the parent and child. This makes other forms of therapy more effective because now the child is drawn out of their world and more emotionally attached to their parents, therefore they are more receptive towards learning. Teaching how to develop bonds keep dads "in the game" and may help lower the eighty percent divorce rate as well. And finally, recent studies have found that when fathers stayed in the marriage and learned to connect, the children's vocabulary typically increased by fifty percent."

"Less than twenty months ago Little Emerson refused to acknowledge my presence at all. Today he will independently come running with his arms open for hugs when I walk through the door at night. To say this is a catharsis in my son's behavior is an understatement." Donnell has had such success in enabling his son's affectionate side to blossom that he is compelled to share these strategies. "At the end of the day it's his bright eyes, smiles and hugs that keep me motivated to help others experience the same progress."

On one hand, it can be a safe, positive experience where kids can grow and learn. On the other hand, it can be a very attractive wonderland that hides beneath the surface a wide variety of dangers lurking for the uninformed and unguided. Research shows that without supervision, it can be more the latter.

According to The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy and CosmoGirl.com (in the sex and tech survey which surveyed 1,280 teens and young adults), a significant number of teens (20 percent aged 13 - 19) have electronically sent, or posted online, nude or semi-nude pictures or video of themselves. And although the research showed most teens and young adults are sending sexually suggestive content to boyfriends/girlfriends, other teens (15 percent) say they are sending such material to those they only know online and not in real life.

Combine this state of culture with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and Cox Communications study, which found 71 percent of teens ages 13 to 17 reporting having received messages online from someone they do not know, with 40 percent responding and only 18 percent telling an adult, and we have a great concern for our children's welfare online.

As a way of determining which way your child may be leaning, Mary Kay Hoal - President and Founder of Yoursphere.com, the only safety-first social networking site that only allows kids to become members - has assembled a quiz for parents to separate the fact from the fiction about kids online.

Q: Most social networking Web sites and forums verify identities and screen members before accepting them.

A: FALSE - In fact, most social networking sites do not screen new members at all. The only thing you need to have to become a member of Facebook or MySpace is a valid email address. Beyond that, anything goes.

Q: Having a profile on a social networking site set to "Private" safeguards a person from anyone intending them harm.

A: FALSE - Members with profiles set to private can still get friend requests and are two clicks away from pornographers, trollers, or others intending harm.

Q: The best way to keep your kids safe and happy is to simply keep them off social networking sites altogether.

A: FALSE - Kids can benefit greatly in life by participating in online social networks. Research shows youth are picking up basic social and technical skills they need to fully participate in contemporary society. Kids can add new media skills to their repertoire, and are able to engage in self-directed learning and enjoy friendship-driven and interest-driven online activities. This helps provide a more well-rounded development both in terms of education and social skills. Parents should use filters and firewalls as a foundation for keeping kids off of the wrong sites, and keep the computer in a public room at home to encourage acceptable behavior.

First and foremost, parents should talk to their kids and remind them of how to behave safely on the Internet, just as parents would advise them in how to stay safe when they are out with their friends on a Saturday night. If you wouldn't say it to someone without a computer involved, then don't say it with one.

Q: It's really the "fringe kids" that are in danger on social networking sites.

A: FALSE - By the time kids are teens, they no longer have the aversion to talking to strangers that they had as a small child. The fact that the communication takes place online, and is not in person, provides them a false sense of security. They don't feel they would ever be convinced to meet a potentially dangerous online friend offline. However, according to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and Cox Communications, 30 percent of teens have considered meeting someone that they have only talked to online and 14 percent have actually had such an encounter. So, it's not just the fringe kids - it may very well be your kids who are in danger without the right guidance and safeguards.

"Just because the Internet CAN be a scary and concerning place for our children, it doesn't mean that is HAS to be one," said Hoal, who created Yoursphere after struggling with how to regulate her own daughter's online activities. "With communication, education and very simple, non-invasive monitoring techniques, every child can have a safe and rewarding online life and every parent can sleep a little better at night."

Every person, no matter their circumstances, is vulnerable to decline. There is no law of nature that says the rich are guaranteed success while the poor are not. Anyone can fail and most all of us eventually do. But, many people recover, coming back even stronger—even after having crashed to the point of bankruptcy.

To be clear, this piece is not about achieving success. It's about why people fail. By understanding the characteristics of one's demise, we can substantially reduce the chances of falling all the way to the bottom, tumbling from importance to irrelevance. The purpose of this piece is to avoid failure. The seeds of decline can be detected early. Here are the ten reasons people fail in life:

1. Unable or unwilling to follow through with commitments.

2. Allowing setbacks to destroy aspirations, making one impervious to hope.

3. Failure to make things right after discovering you're wrong.

4. Behaving outside social norms, while expecting to be treated like royalty.

5. Hubris, born of small successes, gives rise to denial of risk and peril.

6. Undisciplined pursuit of unrealistic goals .

7. Grasping for success with a quick, big solution.

8. Capitulation when the going gets tough.

9. Failure to work hard, very hard, in everything that you do.

10.Clinging to people who hold you back.



There are many variables to success, including chance or luck. But failure can always be traced to a combination of the above ten factors.

Follow our guide to making your home as baby safe as possible.

How to baby proof your house

There are many dangers posed to babies and toddlers in the home - some you may not have considered. To ensure you're prepared for any eventualities, begin baby proofing room by room. Get down to child's level to see what hazards they face.

Nursery

* Make sure the slats of the cot are at least 6cm apart so your child's head won't get trapped.
* Keep small toys away from the cot and don't use soft bedding or pillows - they can be a suffocation hazard.
* Once your baby can push up onto their hands and knees, remove any hanging mobiles. Put any chords from windows or lights out of reach.
* Ensure the changing table has guardrails and a safety belt.

Kitchen

* Store cleaning products in childproof cabinets.
* Ensure all sharp utensils are out of reach.
* Keep pot and pan handles to the side or back of the stovetop.
* Keep a fire extinguisher close by and familiarise yourself with how to use it.

Sitting room

* Tape down electrical chords and secure free-standing furniture so your child can't pull any appliances or furnishings down onto themselves.
* Cover any unused electrical outlets.
* Use padding to cover sharp edges on furniture such as tables.
* Carpeted floors are less slippery than wooden floors and provide a softer landing when your child takes a tumble.

Bathroom

* Don't set hot water any higher than 49 degrees Celsius.
* Install a lid-lock on the toilet - keep it closed when not in use.
* Store all medication in childproof containers and well out of reach.
* Keep electrical appliances, such as hairdryers and shavers, unplugged and away from little hands.

Don't forget

* Stairs should be securely gated at the top and bottom.
* Keep an eagle eye out for anything that might pose a choking risk.
* Unplug and store power tools out of reach of children.
* Take out adequate contents insurance that will cover you financially should furnishings get ruined.

Once you've baby-proofed the house, read our Guide to Child and Baby Car Seats. You'll want to make sure they're as safe in the car as they are at home.

How contents insurance can help you and your child

They don't call it the ‘terrible twos' for nothing. When your child's up and running, watch out - they'll be into everything.

Make sure you've got the right contents insurance policy for you. That way, if your child manages to accidentally ruin that brand new sofa, you've got it covered.

Compare home insurance quotes.

Cost saving tips

It's no secret that becoming a parent is going to cost you. Take time out before baby arrives to see where else you could make a saving - from your car insurance to your credit card bills.

Moreover, according to a recent Harris Interactive Cyberbullying Research Report, commissioned by the National Crime Prevention Council, 81 percent of teens surveyed find cyberbullying funny. Further, recent information on cyberbullying shows that it can lead to depression, anxiety, even suicide.

Jacquie Ream, author of the children's book Bully Dogs from Book Publisher's Network, (www.bookpublishersnetwork.com) feels very strongly about bullies. Rather than being statistical, Ream's concern about bullying is the real life affect it has on kids.

"Bullying is present in all children's lives, whether they are male or female, teens or younger, bullies or the bullied," she said. "It reigns on the schoolyard, in the classrooms, in the hallways, on sports teams, even on the Internet. Inside and outside of the classroom, kids are coming face to face with a new enemy, one who's often their age and their size. As parents and educators struggle to reach children who are being bullied, kids often end up dealing with bullies on their own."

Ream believes this is an ongoing issue for today's teens. She believes that parents and educators need to meet this crisis head on and give our kids the tools to deal with bullies. Self-confidence is one of those tools.

"It takes two for a conflict," she added. "If a child is able to boost their self confidence enough so that the bully's words no longer have any affect, that could eliminate a lot of the verbal and cyber-bullying that takes place. After all, a game only one can play is no fun. If the bully fails to have any affect on his victim, he'll likely stop."

Part of the solution is for parents to be actively involved with their children, Ream added.

"In homes where the parents are less than attentive or are strict disciplinarians, there is room for the cultivation of a bully or a victim," she said. "That is not to say that it won't happen in other homes as well. Bullies actually tend to have high self-esteem, contrary to popular belief, and have a low tolerance for frustration. If their role models are angry, hot tempered or physically aggressive, they can be led to believe that this is the way to deal with your frustrations. This is not always the case, but it should be a consideration."

The key is to find a way to open up the lines of communication for kids who are being bullied, Ream said. It is not easy for children to admit that they are being picked on. Being bullied can lead to loss of interest in activities, even excessive absences from school. It is up to the adults in our children's lives to help them find the tools necessary to stand up for themselves and say "stop."

"I am hopeful that children who are bullied will get the message that they can overcome their fear and find inner strength to fight back," said Ream.

Buying tiny and adorable baby clothes is fun. Here are a few valuable tips for shoppers who prefer the convenience and diversity the Internet has to offer.

Selecting size

No matter if they are newborns or one year old, babies grow fast. To avoid having T-Shirts, legging, or sleepwear that is too small, or jackets they grow out of too fast, try to select clothes slightly larger in size. Even if the items arrive and you feel they are a little oversized, the baby won't mind. Actually, the child will be less restricted in its movements if its jumper is a tad loose.

Clothes Designs

Babies are tiny people with distinctive characteristics. Just like many adults do not like to wear turtleneck sweaters or pants with an elastics waistband, these miniature humans may not like a certain type of clothing. It is not the first time a baby does not like pull-over tops or cries when it has to wear a hat or cap. Also, the child may not like the feel of metal zippers against its delicate skin. Keep that in mind when you are ordering your next batch of clothes and you experienced a certain behavioral pattern when dressing your tot.

Your comfort is equally important. Diapers and nappies can be more easily changed if suits and pajamas have a full snap opening at the bottom or a zipper in the front and coats with buttons are more easily to take off than those which need to be pulled over the head.

Materials

Before clicking that order button, verify that the clothing material is exactly what you want. Do you prefer organic cotton undershirts and dresses made from fabrics that do not need ironing? Will the material be right for the season? For example, flannel may be too hot during the summer. Once your purchase is finalized it takes a lot of time and hassle to get it retracted or modified.

Knowing the materials of your stylish baby sets will also help you determine how to care for them. Some clothes need to be hand-washed, while others have special drying instructions. Depending on how much time and energy you have to spare, you can avoid a lot of extra laundry chores just by reading the website descriptions!

Online Services

It is always wise to read the entire customer service pages of the potential suppliers. Included in their information should be a size chart, shipping time and fees, and what kind of return policy the company offers. Despite all your precautions and careful clothing selection, there is always a chance that you will not like the merchandize, the piece is the wrong size or colour, or arrives damaged. If that happens, you want to be prepared and know exactly what you have to do to get those bibs, socks or booties you fell in love with!

Clothing is always greatly appreciated at a baby shower, or for any special occasion. They save the expecting parents money, shopping time and it is a present that can be re-used if they plan on having more children. Even if they already have an assortment of jumpsuits, T-Shirts and cuddle wraps, there is always room for more. Babies need to be changed frequently and the more onesies, bibs and tops they have the better!

Consider the style and taste of the parents. If they like bright colours, do not buy pastel suits, dresses or jackets. Some parents like plain clothing because it is easier to mix and match, while other mums have their mind set on extravagant boutique-style outfits or prefer a specific theme harmonizing with the nursery. They may like animals, Disney characters or typical gender-specific shades. You know... little girls should always wear pink.

All parents have their own ideas about what they like, and finding out what type of clothing style they prefer only requires one quick phone call or short email. Believe it, your question will be answered in record time and above all, your thoughtfulness will be highly treasured.

Another aspect to consider when buying baby clothes, either online or at the baby store downtown, is size. Expecting parents and grandparents may already have purchased a newborn wardrobe and therefore it is always better to opt for sizes 6 months and up. This also prevents that singlets, pajamas, coats or sweaters may already be too small. Not all babies are preemies and many babies are currently born looking like three month olds.

When you are making your clothing choice, reflect on the seasons. A sleeveless flower sun dress may be rather chilly during the winter, so in this case, size does matter. If you are uncertain and still want to go ahead with the sale, ask for a return receipt. Parents certainly value the opportunity that they can return an item, whatever the reason may be.

The basic idea behind a party for the expectant mother and her unborn child is to shower them with gifts. If you want to venture off from the classic donations and bring something exciting and surprisingly unexpected, take a little time to find the perfect collection. Sleepwear, socks and beanies are adorable, but won't get you the oohs and aahs a "Baby Memory" gift set will bring. Picture a soft, neutral coloured kimono, pants and a pair of booties from the new Pebble Clothing Collection, wrapped fancifully into a flower arrangement. The set also includes the beautifully illustrated Baby Grows Up with Peter Rabbit record book.

Gift-wrapping clothing does not have to be boring. Why choose a nice, but ordinary bag or box when you can present the items nice assembled in a themed baby bouquet. What will be remembered more, you think? Add a personalized wish card and a little something to pamper mum and your gift will tower high over anyone else's at the baby shower.
