The nurses practically made us take all the diapers.  I guess they probably toss it if you don't.  So much waste in hospitals.

Common sense is key. That's all you really need.

A class might help you feel more comfortable and it's only a few hours. We did one and I found it helpful, but, I had barely even so much as held a kid before I had one.

You just effectively eliminated half the schmucks on this site.

If you leave a package of baby wipes in the car in sub-freezing weather, will the wipes freeze stiff?

That's worth betting vcash on. I guess it depends on the freezing point of any liquids in there besides water.  Since they are probably almost all water, I'd say yes unless it's just a hair below freezing.

This should be fun, two schmucks and a science experiment.

I dated a girl with a kid for the first time. I stopped dating her because I think her kid has Aspergers.

My in-laws want to buy a whole life insurance policy for my son and want to know what my wife and I think. Specifically, it's the Gerber Life Grow-Up Plan.

I don't know much about whole life insurance except for the basic difference it has from term life.

After some cursory research it seems like their money could be better invested in something else if they want to leave him something with value, but I'm not really comfortable telling them how to spend their money. But my biggest area of discomfort is still my lack of knowledge about how it would actually work. I'm having trouble finding anything about it that isn't trying to sell it to me.

What do?

Your gut is correct.  Get a term policy and use some other vehicle to invest (mutual funds, etc.)  I've never heard anything good about whole life policies from anyone that wasn't trying to sell me one.  They are great.....for your insurance agent.
Term policies are cheap and cover the basics that you should be worried about (croaking and leaving your family broke).

Maybe they would be interested in something else like a 529 account for college

Based on what I've been reading for the last hour or so, this seems like a good way to go and an easy alternative to present to their idea.
