Well, My niece is 11 years old and is 5’4, and weighs around 120 pounds. Is this a healthy weight for someone her age? She is always in tears about how kids tease her and how she wants to lose weight. I feel so bad, but I don’t know what to say. She doesn’t LOOK overweight, but I don’t know if she actually is. If she is, Could you leave some ways that an 11 year old could easily lose a few pounds?

My aunt is 8 months pregnant with her third child. Earlier in her pregnancy, she accused my mom of doing horrible things, which my mom would never do. She said rude and offensive things about my family that were scarring. She announced she would no longer speak to my mother. Personally, I never want to deal with her again, but my mom does not know if she should give the baby a gift when it is born. Not a gift to my aunt, but to the baby. My mom lost respect for my aunt but still wants to show she cares about her unborn niece. Should she give a gift?

I found my niece, 11, dry humping another girl, about the age of 5,6 or 7. I didn’t say much but told her not to ever do it again. Would she be a future lesbian, child molester, etc…. How would it affect her? Is it normal? Will she be a future sex addict and how will affect the other little girl? Will the other girl feel as if she had been raped? This doesn’t leave my mind.

My brother is the father of a two year old girl. During the pregnancy, our family and the mother’s family had a talk in which we decided what would be done about my unborn niece. My family’s input was that adoption would be the best for the baby. The mother’s family disagreed, and decided to keep the baby. It was decided by the mother’s parents that they would promise to support their daughter and her baby, and that they would not demand anything from my brother, and he was free to move on in life. My family agreed with this decision knowing there was nothing we could do to convince them otherwise. So now two years have passed, and the mother’s family has not held up their end. My brother is a great dad, and has taken responsibility from the beginning, even when he was told he could walk away. He pays child support (which he was told he wouldn’t have to) in addition to what he voluntarily gives the mother. He really is the better parent. Is it possible for him to get full custody?
The mother doesn’t have any outstanding negative qualities (like being a druggy or a negligent) that my brother could argue against in a court if it ever went there. I’m just wondering because it seems logical that he should have just as many rights as the mother, and if he’s the better parent, who is more financially stable and can prove he can provide in the future more than the mother and her family can, why can’t he get custody? Does he have a chance?
Just taking her away and saying she’ll never see her mother was never the idea. Our view has always been what’s best for the baby. Taking away the mother def. wouln’t be. And she really wouldn’t be too upset if she had to leave her mother’s house and live at ours. She loves coming here. She loves our family. And she does not particularly like going home where she has a five year old uncle who doesn’t play nice at all. And I do believe it’s fair to say that my brother is the better parent, and not just being responsible. True, if they were married, he wouldn’t be anything exceptional, but considering the circumstances, I think he is a hero. Is it not heroic for the father of an "illegitimate" child to actually be the father nowadays? I understand that he should pay child support, but I don’t think all unwed fathers of children should, especially if it was decided before birth that he wouldn’t have to. And he gave money to the mother voluntarily even before the state came for more.
They’re both 20 now, 17 when pregnant, 18 at birth. And I totally understand that the "agreement" means nothing legally. And establishing visitation for the future does sound like a very good thing.

I have a niece only 30 years old and having invasive cancer type 4. I heard that for a breast cancer that young, the cancer spreads very fast. I just wonder anybody out there survive the cancer this stage so I can have some hope for her.
Thanks, worried aunt
