Bristol Palin just threw cold water on what's supposed to be a joyous occasion ... being pregnant.
Palin's in the early stages of her second out of wedlock pregnancy, and this time she's full on grumpy, saying she knows it will be "a huge disappointment to my family, to my close friends, and to many of you."
Bristol says she's "trying to keep [my] chin up on this one."
Sarah Palin's daughter was engaged to U.S. Marine veteran Dakota Meyer, but they broke things off last month. Bristol didn't say if Dakota's the dad.
Bristol was full of piss and vinegar, saying, "I do not want any lectures and I do not want any sympathy."
She famously had her son, Tripp, with Levi Johnston in December 2008. They broke up a few months later.
We’re hear to choose good or evil. If you’ve taught your kids well, they usually get it, eventually. A wayward child isn’t the sign of a bad parent. A parent who gives up is.
I agree. Sometimes you can be a very good parent and have an aberration for a child. It happens. Some children have a personality that cannot be controlled. It does not necessarily mean you are a bad parent.
Thank goodness my mother never gave up on me. Lord knows I gave her every reason to give up. Life without a father sucks, no matter how great a mother you have. I know.
God bless your mom. If only men and fathers lived up to their true abilities, think what a world we would have.
He must have blessed her pretty well to be able to tolerate me. She’s quite an incredible woman. My father was a fine man but I think he made more room for his anger than he did for his children.
I hope Bristol will try to work through whatever it is that stopped her marriage and give her child a father. He was good enough to lay down with, he apparently served his country well. He can’t be all that bad. Stupid maybe, but stupid can be overcome.
Anger, pouting and hurt feelings aren’t a good reason to deprive a child of a parent and family. Storybook love is mostly just that— storybook. Love and marriage take patience, work and lots of it. It’s not perfect and it’s messy sometimes but it is certainly worth it! A dependable partner to go through life with is invaluable.
And if my predictions come true, how do you intend to compensate for subjecting me to ridicule? Actually YOU are the troll, the disruptor. You are here with one express intent — to sully the Palin family’s standing among freepers. Whether or not you get zotted — which you richly deserve — I refuse to trade abuse with you.
I was that way. I still have a bit of it, and it's a reason why I'm not a democrat. I don't do what I'm told. :)
Luckily I never knocked up a lady. If I did, I'd probably have been both married and divorced by now knowing how I acted in my 20's.
Is it all about you, Sparky?
Hey, I said your posts were funny..and they are!
As to your prediction, why should this one come true any more than the one contained in your screen name? You were saying the same thing three years ago. What happened?
" Actually YOU are the troll, the disruptor. "
"You are here with one express intent — to sully the Palin family’s standing among freepers. "
I think they managed that themselves.
"Whether or not you get zotted — which you richly deserve"
Not for you to say.
I note that in 2012, a couple of longtime Freepers--of which I'm not one---were on to you, and you were yelling at them about getting zotted, too.
"— I refuse to trade abuse with you."
Yet here you are. Sorry I ruined your fun, troll. You were just too obvious and over-the-top.
You really want to see a troll? Look in a mirror!
You mad, bro?
She committed adultery. The father is married to someone else.
There is a damn good reason to say “NO!”.
In my state one party has to be under 18 and we support lots of babies from resultant pregnancies. The father never pays but proceeds to have more children. If not statutory rape or date rape, they should have made him pay child support. If public figures don’t make fathers of their illegit grandchildren take responsibility, the average citizen will not either. It is a way of life and the Palin family set a poor example. Needless to say, it did not help her credibility during the campaign. It becomes difficult to have respect for any of them.
That was a rumor. He’s divorced, that marriage didn’t last long.
Apparently Bristol had a honeymoon rehearsal.
Funny! She certainly is fertile.
When I was in High School, we had two very elderly teachers, one for English Lit, and one for Algebra.
These women had never married; but they both wore what appeared to be engagement rings. I eventually learned that they had both lost their fiances before they had gotten married. (They were both of an age to have conceivably lost their fiances in WWI or in the Pandemic Influenza.)
Older people explained to me that this was common, for those ladies’ generation. Many women, having found their ‘one’, decided to never marry after his untimely death.
In those days, people didn’t immediately jump to the conclusion that they were somehow ‘unnatural’.
(In fact, it seems to me that we’ve become more critical and unhealthily curious about people like this, as our culture has become more hyper-sexualized; and this includes the change from discretion in homosexuality, to overtness in it.)

Yeah, I like Sarah too.
She’s human like everyone else; has family matters going on like everyone else.
Bristol seems outta control. But hey... at least she’s not killing the baby. And that kid’ll grow up surrounded by a family that loves him or her.
There’s always some good to find in things...
I can see I have touched a raw nerve. Are you going to turn yourself in, now that I have found you out?
LOL, where's the nearest police station?
You are funny, I'll give you that much. I guess I'm in good company, since you've tried the same line with longtime Freepers. And that was back in 2012, when you were just a newborn troll.
Troll.
