Hi Bugman!
Shot some spiders at home. Request you to ID them. I stay in Palm Meadows

Thanks much,
Shastri

Hi Shastri,
The spider with young is a species of Wolf Spider. The females often carry the young on their backs. The “Monster Spider” is either a Silver Argiope or a very close relative. These are orb weavers and totally harmless, as is the Wolf Spider. The spider you have labeled Spidey Long Legs is unknown to us, but an awesome specimen.
