A Dedham mother has asked Urban Outfitters to relocate what she called "graphic" books, after the mom went into the Legacy Place shop with her 13-year-old daughter. In an interview with Dedham Patch, Ann Hunnewell said clothing at Urban Outfitters fits her daughter best right now, and would like to keep shopping there, but without seeing the sexually-charged books. As parents become more aware of Urban Outfitters nearly three years after opening, more feedback could be coming. And there are solutions to the issue, Legacy Place management said. There are several other stores that have similar clothing - both in terms of sizes and trends - and parents can go into Urban with their kids and shield them from the books. What do you think? …

Do you recycle old Christmas lights after the holidays? Or do you save and reuse the same decorations each year?
Many families look to decorate their homes for the holidays. Whether it's a simple wreath on the door or completely decking one's house out with lights and decorations (which, by the way, can help win $100,000 for Dedham Public Schools this year), there are a variety of ways to celebrate the holidays with decor. But what do you do after the holidays are over? Do you put the decorations and lights into boxes and stuff them into the attic or basement? Or do you look to various recycling programs to remain environmentally friendly? Let us know what you do with your old, unwanted holiday decorations and lights each year by voting in today's poll and submitting comments in the section below.

Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
The gift-giving season is officially here. As you hit the shops this holiday season, we want to know if your children's teachers are on the shopping list. We're wondering: is it OK, or do you feel compelled to give your kid's teachers gifts for the holidays? Is it seen as "sucking up" to the teacher if you do so? Are there rules against parent-teacher gift exchanges in schools, or do you have your own set of guidelines to follow when choosing a gift for a teacher? Let us know what you think about the whole in-school gift exchange in the comments section below.

Have you ever received a bad gift? What do you do with it?
Whether a loveable aunt gives you a sweater that just isn't your style or a friend gives you a fifth copy of Fletch, many of us have received a gift we just don't have any use for.

Ah, the greatest shopping day of the year is already upon us. Whether you are an old pro that draws out a map of your route - and the deals - after the Thanksgiving feast; or a new age techie that just needs Mapquest to plot your gameplan; or you are just the fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants shopper - Black Friday is for you. Perhaps you're used to waking up at 3 a.m. to hit the stores by 5 a.m., but with plenty of stores open at midnight, maybe it's worth it to pull an all nighter. There is plenty of shopping to be done right here in Dedham, so where will you celebrate Black Friday? Vote in our poll below, or let people know in the comment section below.
