comment Should we circumcise our son?
Yep - my own experience, plus the feedback from my son. He enjoyed his coupleof days off school, found it a bit itchy but wasn't bothered at all.

comment What is a good strategy for getting our 5 year old to finish dinner before expecting dessert?
We have dessert one night a week. If they have been good. And they eat everything on their plate! It sometimes is announced in advance (especially if I have been away all week - as that way I get to join in with the excitement of a 'special night'. This is more of a benefit for me than my kids:-)

comment Is it important to encourage children to experience historic events?
@afrazier - not sure I'd encourage doing something just in order to be a part of conversation. In fact if that was the sole reason to do something I'd actively discourage it - as I wouldn't want my kids to grow up as sheep. As it is, we aren't going to watch it - we're going to the beach for the day as the roads are likely to be clear (with all those folks staying in to watch the wedding :-)

comment How do I reduce the time my child spends playing computer games?
@Carnotaurus - don't let him have your phone. Then he will not play any online games. Simple?
