Chewing Finger Nails

Hello - I have a 2 1/2 little girl - Lauren - who has recently started a terrible and extremely annoying habit. About a month ago she started picking at her finger nail and toe nails. We are not sure where she saw this because my husband and I do not do it. If she sees any white on them, she picks it off and is completely obsessed until she gets it off. She does not bite them, just picks it with her hands. Has anyone else dealt with this and have any solutions? Please help.....it's driving me crazy and it's not good for her! Thanks...

Do People Mispronounce Your Name?

My name is L. (rhymes with "sorry") but I get called Lori all the time and sometimes Laura or Lauren. Interestingly enough some people can't hear the difference between L. and Lori even when I try to correct them, so I usually don't bother. In the last few years, when I introduce myself some people think I'm saying "Maurie" which I have no idea why unless Maury Povich popularized the name. Just out of curiosity, how do other people's names get mispronounced? UPDATE: Looks like using "sorry" was not the best example. Here's...

Four Year Old Driving Me Insane

I have a four year and a half year old girl who can be the best kid or a huge challenge. Her newest thing is screaming "Why are you being so mean to me?" anytime anyone says anything she doesn't want to hear. For instance--just now-- Lauren: I can't find my shoes. I CAN'T FIND MY SHOES! Me: I just put them in your room. Lauren: I don't see them. They are not there. (Getting more and more upset) THEY ARE NOT THERE! YOU NEED TO HELP ME FIND THEM! Me: (from the toilet!) You sound really frustrated about it. (Obviously not...
