I think everyone has a small case of hoarding. I know I find myself holding on to random things I don`t use because I think what I could one day need them for. But it`s no where close to what is on this show. What I think is kind of bad about this show is that people who are bad... maybe not that bad but bad enough...see it and think `im not that bad` and use that as their standard of bad when they really are too. I also hate the people who are there to help. Like the woman who kept the nasty food, when they were asking her what to keep and throw away. I mean hello she won`t throw any of it away don`t ask just do!

i horde things as well. its not to the point where im keeping spoiled food under the couch though. i feel bad for these people. i can really sympathize with them when they say they need to touch everything before they could let someone throw it out. ive been there before. my house is cluttered, its always been that way. i horde food, clothes, stuff other people give me. i always feel so guilty thowing something out that was given to me, no matter what shape the item is in. as far as food. i tend to over stock cubbards bc i cant pass up sales etc. but if my shelves arent packed i feel like i have no food in the house. its weird, but watching these ppl i see similarities in how i think. i hate wasting things.i hate throwing away food especially. i end up donating canned goods and non perishables to charity. its definatly harder for some people to let go of things. with me its more of `i hate to waste`, or `we might need that one day` type of thing. ive gotten alot better over the years, but i know some ppl would come to my house and say you need to get rid of shit. i just hate doing it. i have things from family who have passed away, i just cant part with. my aunt has it worse than me. you cant even walk in her house its like a little path. weve never seen what her kitchen looks like bc everything is covered with stuff. its not rotten food, its just stuff. my mother keeps things too but not as bad as my aunt. she tries to give me the things she hordes and i dont know how to say no, so it ends up in my house lol its horrible. with me and my mother though, it really ends up we have no closest space bc our closets are all full of shit we just horde. if we got rid of that stuff we could use the closets and have room for things we actually do use lol. its a cycle. its hard to stop. my aunt definatly has the worst of it though. you cant even sit on her furniture.

  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,.....
