My children were born in New York but now live in Texas. I sometimes wish we had never moved.

"I worry about what women's health will be like for my daughter's generation"

Exactly why, mom? I'm sure Texas still has (and will have) a lot of gynecologists.

"Snakes shed their skin, as they start to grow out of it..."

Back in New York City, she'd be confronted with plenty of snakes, but not the ones that shed their skin. Sure we've got snakes, even Timber Rattlers in the Adirondacks, but she probably hasn't seen any other part of New York State, other than the Rotten Apple she came from.

If you've not seen the fields of Blue Bonnets in Texas, you don't know what you're missing.

A good reason annually for an all-day drive-around.

Not everything is political.

People get homesick and regret leaving the place they are used to and felt at home in.

There's a lot of nostalgia and romance attached to the places where one grew up. She sees that her kids will have the Texas experience and doesn't object, but she wishes that they also kept something of the New York experience.

I get that she does have very "New York City" political views, but if people can only engage with her in political terms, that may not be her problem.

She apparently likes to be photographed nekkid. Shocking that she’s divorced.

Hey Karen, I think it would be great to return your kids to NYC! They can have fun risking their life in the subways....they can thrill to sights the drug addicts fornicating in the street....and when they are being mugged by street thugs, they can take comfort knowing that the neutered NYPD will slow roll to the rescue.
Have another glass of Pinot and enjoy your delusions.

It's much safer for the kids to die in a drive-by shooting than by rattlesnake.

Boo - effin’ - hoo, babe. I was born in New York as well, but only because my dad was flying F101s at Suffolk County AFB. Mom and Dad are born-and-bred Texans, so I consider myself a Texan with a certificate of birth abroad.

Back in the 70s in Alaska people said happiness is 10,000 Okies headed south with a Texan under each arm.

Happiiness for me is prune pickers, yankees, wet backs and all other manner of invaders of the south selling out at a loss and going somewhere else. I don’t care where just as long as they leave.

I was wondering when somebody was going to point this out.

uhhh.....New Yooo-awwwk-ahs are a lot less safe than Texans - even those stuck in Houston. Part of it of course, is that Texans are armed and the bad guys know it while those stuck in New Yooo-awwwk are just defenseless prey. The other part is that Texas does not believe in turning lunatics and violent criminals loose.
