    The name game: Parents-to-be are already arguing about their baby's identity. Which side are you on?

    Your child you name her, no one else's business not even family. I held firm on my son's name although my MIL got to my husband with the name she wanted. Ignored them both.

    Can you check the time on an ordinary watch?? All this revenue raising, and that's all it is when there are new rules almost every day. Soon we will be fined for opening our car door in a closed garage on your own property.

    Money saving by Australia Post is all it is, good for them, not so good for elderly people. Ripping off the customers again with no thought to how elderly folk are going to get to the place and pick up the parcel. Get real Australia Post, you exist to receive and deliver mail.

    Is it wrong not to give away the wedding dress I won't wear?

    NO! Your dress, you paid for it, you want it, keep it. tell your sister to go get her own dress and tell your mother as she didn't have anything to do with paying for it she has no right to say your sister should get it.

    The horrifying moment police unleashed pepper spray and taser on a 92-year-old amputee

    Absolutely DISGUSTING!!!! The homes should be able to deal with these MINOR altercations themselves, calling in the POLICE to old people for almost nothing should be a CRIME as well. The people involved in this are basically murders, both police and staff.

    Garbo collectors are onto you: This bin day mistake can cost you $1,674!

    I have no idea what goes into what bin, have never seen anything to explain each bins use. Fines are just the Councils making money, ripping folk off. Councils should employ people to sort bins and not expect rate players to do it for free, we have paid to have rubbish removed now we have to...

    Principal Sidelined After Shocking Sex Ed Revelation

    If parents dealt with these questions at home making answers appropriate to the child's age the school wouldn't have to deal with it. Much better coming from a parent than a teacher.

    Is it okay to say no to a long-standing family tradition?

    You are the one having the child NOT your husband's family, you will be the one giving birth, therefore You and your husband name YOUR baby not his family. I had the same problem from my MIL I just paid no attention and went ahead and named MY baby a name I wanted.

    'I didn't take my husband's last name... now my in-laws say no one will respect me'

    OMG You poor lady, in laws should be forced to keep their opinions to themselves. What you and your husband decide has nothing to do with his parents - tell them so. Point out that you don't interfere in their decisions about their life and would expect the same courtesy. Also tell your husband...

    Australians Beware: The Deadly Substance Lurking in the Bush That No One Is Talking About

    Murdering any animal by poison is wrong, the animal dies in agony. Plus these so called pest animals were brought here by people the animals were not consulted, now they are being killed in a disgusting, cruel and horrible way for doing absolutely nothing wrong except living.

    Would you call your mum an ‘inseminated person’? New proposal sparks debate

    If this politician has nothing better to do than carry on about things that don'y need changing and really aren't that important - HE NEEDS TO BE TOLD TO DO SOMETHING USEFUL OR GET THE SACK. I'm sure people are not paying him to pontificate about such an inane subject.
