My friend tends to do this A LOT! We eat with each other, and he grabs a load of food to put on his plate. For example, there are several more shrimp left; I have nothing on my plate, while he has a lot on his, and he takes the last of the shrimp. Is this selfish?
Answer
A way to solve this problem is to put each person's food onto their plates and do not have a shared bowl from which to take the food. If there's any left over, don't mention it, simply leave it on the kitchen bench and when he has finished eating, and you're full as well, tell him that if he's still hungry he may have what's still left on the kitchen bench. Don't always have some left over, or he'll just stand up and race you to where he knows there's food. Sometimes have extra, at other times don't have any extra. He'll slowly learn to ask, and will probably learn to follow the good example you've set down for him by asking if you have finished and if you'd like more food. Sometimes, it's better to put ideas into practise than to try and verbally instruct others. The chances of his having seen and heard of table etiquette are high, he just needs to stop and think about what he's doing.

where would be the best place to purchase an indoor play center for my 2 yr old.?

I have a empty room that is 20' by 15' and I am looking to get the best deals on a padded activity center with various stations. It would be ideal if I could make out with under $1000.
Thanks for you answers.
Answer
Your best bet, I would say is to use some imagination and go to Walmart and Toys R Us. You can get the outside club houses with the slides there, and whatever other kind of stations that you may be looking for. As far as the mats, you may want to try a gymnastics center. If you are looking for an all padded center.... you are probably looking at a lot more money. I would do fun stations for the kids and put the mats around it. At Walmart... you can get a ball pit for $50.00.... a kitchen set for $50.00... just try and be creative! I have a similar size room... mine isn't padded, but I have a sandbox, a ball pit, a kitchen set, a tool bench, a toy box, a plastic table for coloring and play dough.... if that helps with any ideas. I am not sure exactly what it is you are looking for, but I hope that it helps you. And Good Luck!
