What are the legal rights for a father concerning a newborn?
Rights for who. For the baby, they have the right to be taken care of properly, to be warm, safe , clean, fed, happy , healthy and much more because they didnt ask to be here. Now the rights of the biological parents are simple each parent has a say so in the raising of the child in every manner. Now there will be different styles of parenting but neither one is more right or wrong just different. Your question is vague, so go to your local library and try to seek a book on the information you need. If you dont know where to start go to the desk and give the people an idea of what your looking for and they will be happy to help.
Is it better to grow up in a large family or a small family?
I'd say the answer to your question is going to be rather subjective.
I know people from large families who are quite happy with their circumstances and wouldn't trade their many siblings for anything. And I know people who are only children or who have only one sib who were content growing up that way.
On the other hand, I have a friend who is an only child. He'd have given anything to have had brothers and sisters.
I have several sisters myself and when I was growing up I almost hated them. I regularly wished I was an only child. Now, however, I cherish all of my sisters, brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews; step family, in-laws, etc.
You need to learn to appreciate what you have while you have time.
AnswerReally, it's up to you and your husbund how many you should have. What you can and can't handle and afford. It is very expensive to have many children, but i have 7 older brothers, and i wouldn't trade it for a thing. But it is hard for my mom because my dad died a few years ago. Most of them are in the Army though so she is lucky, but it's still hard for her no matter how fun it is for us. AnswerI have 5 children and have to admit that its wonderful to watch them help each other out, teach each other, and to just watch them show emotion for one another. It is hard to have alot of children though. You need to have a steady job and alot of spear time. Considering that children take up alot of energy and work it would be alot easier for you to have a small family. Your children would probally rather it as well. But then again soem children in small familys want big familys. My oldest daughter is all ways telling me how much she hates her 4 little sisters, but whenever her friend comes over to help her babysit I always her hear tell my daughter that my daughter is very lucky to have so many sisters. AnswerI'm an only child. Most of the time, I love it, but there is still those moments when I could talk to a sibling or someone other than Mom and Dad about life stuff, school stuff, and other non-parent/teen topics. All in all, I like being an only child, though I do tend to be more of a recluse than I think I might be with siblings. It really depends on what you want/can do. AnswerI am a mother of 7 children. They range in ages from 16 to 10 months. I have 5 girls and 2 boys. I came from a rather average size family. I have 1 older brother by 6 years, and a younger sister by 6 years. I absolutely hated being either the younger one or the oldest one growing up. I never said that I wanted a large family, it just kinda happened. I actually never planned on having any children. I am so glad I did. I cannot imagine ever being without them. I love each of them for being different. Their many (so very many) personalities. They make life fun. I am looking foreward to having holidays with them when they are grown. I guess I was made for this. It all takes a bit of organization, and patience. That means for every one of us. The children must also exercise patience and understanding. Our family has taught us to work together as a FAMILY. We are not always so concerned about ourselves. This is a FAMILY unit. All of the schedules, meals, church functions, school, projects and so very much more. This is what life is all about. More children should grow up with the responsibilities of a large family. It teaches every one to work well with others, and to respect others. I can only pray that my children view this the same way when they are grown with their own families. AnswerI HATE to answer subjective questions, and I don't intend to sound opinionative, So I'll use a neutral standpoint and list pro's and cons. (Of a large opposed to small, we will say) That I can think of, Feel free, of course, to edit!Please Account that all Pros ARE assuming that you, as a parent, are fully capable of supporting ALL of the children equally under attentative and financial circumstances. And that they, the child, are mentally healthy.
PROS- As a younger child, developing in a household with more direct siblings, the intelligence and comprehension that comes along with the constant and widely varied socializing is awesome. Children learn at younger ages to understand things, Widen there vocabulary, Improve all positive aspects of there social lives, and (IN MY OPINION) tend to be more strong willed. They seem to have more self esteem. As they grow older, and you grow older, (They are around there 20's) Chances are they're going to love you of course, and you will have all your children ready and more than willing to help you with anything you may need.
Cons are basically, in this case, what CAN go wrong.
CONS- It is difficult for a parent or parents to raise lots of children, it is tiring, and at the youngest ages the attention factor is crucial and difficult to keep up with. As children grow older there own social lives improve, but the hardest times are young. It is a financial trainwreck providing children, as they grow, with the wants and needs of todays standards, which is perpetually increasing in price and amount.
But this is a pretty difficult question to answer, other key decisions are the population of the areas where you raise your children in compatibility with how many you have, the boy-girl factor... goes on forever I did my best
AnswerI was an only kid, and I personally loved it. I didn't have anyone I had to battle for my parents attention, and I learned at an early age how to entertain myself by reading and hobbies that you can do by yourself. I now am the single parent of an only child that is 13 years old. When I ask him if he ever wishes he had brothers and sisters, he says "No way!" I think only children tend to invest more in their friendships with other people. One pitfall as a parent of an only child I know I need to be aware of, is spoiling him. I want him to realize that just because he doesn't have anyone he has to share things with, doesn't mean that you don't have to work for what you get, and other life lessons that go along with being a multiple, that only children might not experience. AnswerIt's often said that the internal structures of small and large families tend to be different. In small families, the children *tend* to have more contact with adults than in large families. In the latter they usually have much more contact with some of their siblings. I've also heard it said that in really large families the kids tend to 'cluster' in two or more groups.ANSWER
I feel that it isn't better either way. My parents have divorced, and my dad has a large family, with 6 children(including me, wiv my step and halfs) whereas I am a only child around my mums. Wiv a large fam, u learn how to share, but in sall family, yu havall the attention. Can't decide.
It all depends on where you live if you want to have a large family. For example if you lived in a typical suburban area where there a many families but they only have the average 2 or 3 children, if you lived there and were having 4 or more children, in some cases you might be considered as 'antisocial', even if the children were all well behaved. Children do play and sometimes are a bit naturally noisy. However, a large family of 5 or more children just simply playing would upset the neighbours as I say being 'antisocial'. I did read a letter elsewhere about a family of 8 children having this problem, but luckily they moved house to another area where there were many families with many children and and everything after that was OK.
Sometimes if you have a lot of children it is better to be in a area where the houses are large and there are many couples with many children, if fact once I read the paper where couples were trying to compete with each other who could have the most amount of children, this was a long time ago when conditions were a lot easier to have many kids than now.
I have lost my father at the age of only four. No uncle or younger brother I had. So nobody helped us to face our problems. Whomever we asked for any help he showed us, kindness. But if we had a joint family somebody would help us. We have always faced the shortage of men. A joint family sometimes becomes irritating but teaches us to be generous also. Parents are the best teacher and family members as well. So take the advantage of a big family but just ignore the disadvantages accordingly.

srry not 1 with what you wanted heres an ALT.
Hey now you never wanna be alone you never
Wanna be apart

You've been lost for so many years and every time your heart
Pulls at my strings

You left your husband and took your daughter with you can he call the cops on you?
Anyone can "call the cops" on anyone else. The question is, will the accusation stick?
If there is evidence to suggest you are neglecting or abusing your daughter, or denying him his parental rights as father of your daughter, or if by taking your daughter you are violating a court order, you may well have to explain yourself, at the least.

What is the proper way to display family photos in your home?
I don't believe there is a "proper" way to display family photos. It's more a personal choice these days, whatever looks pleasing to the home owner. Some people like traditional frames on walls, others like free-standing portraits, while some like electronic photo frames and others prefer to look through albums, or some combination of the aforementioned. Ultimately there's no right or wrong way to display family photos.
==Since they have, among them, two first picks and one second pick, no one else even comes close == *Archie, the best of legendary Coach John Vaught's quarterbacks, was the second pick in 1971 out of Ole Miss. *Peyton, whose quarterback coach was David Cutcliffe(later Head Coach at Ole Miss), was the first pick in 1998 out of Tennessee. *Eli, the best of Coach David Cutcliffe's Ole Miss quarterbacks, was the first pick in 2004 out of Ole Miss. *That's an "average draft pick" number of 1.333...and it may never be equaled. *That is until Cooper, Peyton and Eli's sons come of age. Wonder if they'll be quarterbacks?
How are you related to someone who has the same great aunt with you?
If two drunk drivers kill one another in a car accident does either family blame the other family?
Yes. Being intoxicated does not automatically make you at fault. However if both drivers are found to be equally 50% at fault then there will be no additional blame to assign. A possible scenario where this would happen is both driver is equally left of center the cars collide head on resulting in the death of each driver. However if Driver A was legally in the correct lane and Driver B came left of center and caused the accident, then the Estate of Driver A does have grounds to recover damages from the Estate of Driver B.
Did shakespeare have a good relationship with his wife?
No record of animosity between the two exists. Anne Hathaway was nine years older than her husband, and she became pregnant before they were married. They remained married until William's death in 1616. They produced three children, Susanna Hall, Hamnet Shakespeare, and Judith Quiney. They seem to have been an average upper-middle-class family. Susanna married a doctor, Hamnet, their son, did not live beyond age 11, and Judith married the owner of a bar.

What is a quote from Othello showing Iago's jealousy?

Is your family better than your friends?
Better than your friends at what? Skiing? Cooking? Embarrassing you in front of other friends? Or do you mean better for you? Since no one but you knows your family and friends and the content of their character, we can't really answer with any certainty. But more often than not, your family -- particularly your folks -- will know what's good for you better than your friends, or even you, yourself. Your friends are pretty much interested in having a good time; your folks are interested in seeing that you grow up safe, mature, educated,well-mannered, and well-adjusted, with a good work ethic and respect for others. Your family are far more likely to place their needs second to your own. Few friends will do that when the going gets tough.
Calm down my little angel, at this time she is out of the shower. Her mom loves you.
What is wrong with today's families?
I think there's nothing wrong with today's families but the way it's setup andd overly protections we give to the extend that we don't imbibe moral values and make sure we abide by it.
Interestingly, yesterday's family set and observed standards without
but(s) or if(s). With time, we have allowed mordenity (outside adherence to values) to ccrop into our family setup.
It's either we knew and failed to arrest it (overlooked) or we are ignorant. Coverteousness and unneccessary competitions are also weapons of mass family destruction.
Parents are forced both to work to afford things, and one is not at home, someone is always running somewhere, that's why children are in daycare.
Because of this, discipline lacks, parents tire especially after working all day, getting dinner and chores, hardly any time for play or relaxation, and to relax most times its the TV who influences our children.
parents who cannot say NO!! When the children are grown, after high school, they need to find a job and get some responsibilty and not depend on their parents to support them, there is quite alot of this now, it was not like this back in the 50's or 60's, I think most young adults 18-19 yrs now are getting lazy, not all of them but I'd guess at 50% I could be wrong.
It seems nobody pays attention anymore, at the stores etc, have you noticed this, its like, years ago it was not like this, you cared what you were doing.
I find most children are not disciplined at stores and malls
The thing of say you are sorry anyway when you were the one not doing something bad I do not believe in.
The illegal drugs do not help either, the gangs.

1.what is a Relationship in database management system?
That's a tough spot to be in. Believe me, I know. Fathers don't want to hear that their little girls are behaving badly. The problem is compounded by the fact that the girl's father has the legal responsibility & ability to get his daughter the help she needs. Possibly the solution is to talk with your husband in confidence and orchestrate a plan for your him to talk with his daughter about what's going on. Good luck.
If a baby has a Muslim father is the baby considered to be Muslim?
Like all other religions, the child is born on the religion of his father, or mother, or both until he reaches puberty or beyond puberty age where he can chose to remain on his religion or to convert. Muslims not an exception.
A Muslim must believe in Allah (God), His messengers, His Angels, His holy books, the last day (day of resurection), and the destiny. A Muslim must believe in the five Islam pillars. He must do good deeds that brings him closer to God and closer to His mercy and forgiveness.
