bluejeans`s poll Show results | Hide results


Name-poll poll Someone put a poll up yesterday and was asking about baby names. Someone commented that the initals were BJ and someone else said that would be cruel to do because of obvious reasons. My son`s name is Baylie Jamie (BJ) and I honestly never thought it was cruel and it never even entered my head. What do you think?? Fine??Not fine??

Yeah, I know a few BJ`s and I never even gave it a second thought. Now kids might be a lil diff, but like lovemyfam said, kids will find a way to pick if they are going to pick. Go with what you like!

I have a friend who`s initials are BJ and as teens people always called her the most obvious nickname.

my ex for two years told me he had no middle name.. then when we went on vacation and i saw his birth certificate i saw that in fact he did.. his initials were BJ and thats why he always told me and everyone else that he had no middle name.. Its usually just when it comes to kids when it comes to making fun of that i would assume.. Another person i know we call him BJ thats just always been his name hes highly successful harvard grad and the winner of the tv show The amazing race.. look him up his name is Bj Averell.. but he was never made fun of and if he was it was just brushed off.. i think its fine.. but then again i wanted to name our baby if he was a boy Dominic and his initials would have been DB (i never thought anything of it but as soon as i told my boyfriend he said he would be called Douche bag) soooooo whatever name there is SOMEONE will find something to make fun of it.. We are naming our daughter Gianna and someone said `it sounds like vagina` so you really never can win.. as long as you like it and your comfortable with it GO FOR IT!!!

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
