It's called "making one arm look like it's a graft from a zebra, and making the other look like a lion's paw."

Get a life donna. You are trying to "force" your views on everyone here and you are casting judgement on people who you have no business casting judgement on.

The same could easily be said of your statements.

You are a busybody and really should consider cleaning out your own closet before sticking your nose in other's.

The issue of marriage is not about one person. It is a societal issue. Ignoring out of wedlock births should be a concern for everyone. Pretending the Emporer is not wearing any cloths does not negate the problem. Out of wedlock births is a problem in this country. Apathy is tantamount to acceptance.

When/if they breakup, you can bet they will expect the courts we all pay for with our taxes to divide their assets and setup the visiting schedule for their poor unacknowledged child.

You're ignorance is showing. The dividing of assets and setting up of visitation is covered under court costs which are charged at the time of service.

Unacknowledged? Hmmm, unacknowledged you say and yet somehow or another this unacknowledged child had its birth announced through its mother's publicist. Strange, I would consider a birth announcement as being an acknowledgement...a rather public one in fact.

Keep throwing rocks, it so becomes you.

Just as constructive criticism... Don't exaggerate. One word in bold font is hardly screaming. It is done to reiterate and emphasize what should be an obvious point.

I didn't exaggerate. Here's what your post looked like in Firefox. You didn't close your font tag properly.

Have you ever stood before a traffic court judge, or divorce court, or any other court? Have you ever had to call the police (for any reason), or been stopped by the police? Ever had to call the fire department? Did you ever get grants for school? Did you attend private or public school?

Do you drive to work on public roads?

All of these things are funded by our taxes...if you use ANY of them at all...you should be ashamed of yourself for being such a hypocrite

Erm,
I stayed married until they both died hun. Believe me when I say, I was committed. I also need to be committed now, but that's another story. As for marriage? Not again.

The worst cases of child abuse and neglect I've ever seen came out of married (though crazy as loons) marriages. In situations where the parents 'stayed together' and the kids suffered. So I guess I don't see it as a marshmallow cream fix for life.

So while it's good, it's the best way to raise kids, yes. But don't get all frantic when folks don't do it. I've seen both sides of the coin.

You can count me among those who believe that a child needs a mother and father, preferrably a married mother and father, but as much as I would like to have the job of setting everybody straight to my way of thinking, that job has not been given to me! (That must be the "older sister" part of me!)

I choose to wish all 3 of them well, and keep the other stuff to myself.

Thank you for the quote,
I like it.

You can add "And you for sure ain't gonna convert him if you insult him."

The zebra stripe that you see is the shadow of the ruffle on her blouse (notice the sun is shining full on her face and her left (zebra) arm is tucked kind of behind her). The lions paw is because her hands are too close to the camera. If you compare you see that her hands are much bigger than her face. Cameras lie, didn't you know that?

You could use some art classes to show you how to see, perspective, light and shadow. That kind of stuff. Ssheeshe!

Counting isn't one of your strong suits either, is it.

I agree wholeheartedly with you about children needing a father and a mother, preferably married. Even when there's divorce (as in my case) it's important for the parents to still be Mom and Dad. Kids do need both if at all possible.

I just haven't found harshness and condemnation to be workable ways to communicate with people. People tend to tune out, get defensive and not really hear what could be valid points and food for thought.

Do I have to take classes to notice that the photo gives her monster arms?

Or does the art class make those invisible to me? Sort of "dumb me down".

Anybody want to talk about the results of all this self-indulgence:

What Jessica and the other single moms are creating is the Islamification of American women. Muliple wives/husbands, half siblings and step siblings all running themselves into jealousy and poverty.

American women are tossing out our Judeo/Christian culture that says men and women are equal before God for a culture that says women only make babies and don't have the right to be equal partners with men in marriage.

No... We heard you the first time you said this, I ignored it because it's flippin' loony.
