It doesn't cramp my style at all Danny, and there are very few people who think like you, I simply do not let them near my kids.
You see, in spite of yours and Hillary Clinton's arguments, my kids don't need your village.
They have me.
LOL!!!
Imagine that, all these righteous people going off half-cocked!
"We just laughed and laughed and laughed," said Jena Meehan, the superintendent's secretary. "It was a spectacle, to be sure, and to have all of us there was even funnier."
code words for we were getting hornier and hornier and were embarassed because we were getty horny in front of our friends.
the latter. i'd have said what i really thought, but I decided to just be done with him instead of continuing on the same pointless vein.
i'm sorry your world is so black and white - it must be a very dull place
Of course, you probably think that it's good that the public school is teaching your kids: how to put condoms on bananas, that the Pilgrims gave thanks to the Indians instead of to God and that Ramadan is good, all religions are equal, all cultures are equal and that socialism is good. That's probably the curriculum you approved isn't it?
No, I don't trust the system, and your comments on this page about what you would teach second graders is all the reason I need not to trust it.
I'm sorry your children and their children to follow and their children to follow, etc. have to reinvent the ethical wheel, constructing it piece by piece for their own lives instead of learning from absolute wisdom passed down from previous generations. Think of it: You've passed down no convictions, no absolutes, no values, no tenets, nothing except a few guidelines to give them a head start in life. Instead, you've left it up to them to figure out everything, telling them: "Sorry, my own legacy is for you to start from scratch like I did."
i don't have kids yet, but don't assume you know what i will teach my children. in fact, don't assume you know anything about me at all. You have my reaction to one utterly benign issue and you believe you know my moral stance in life and what I will pass along. Very presumptive. And utterly incorrect.
