Just catching up. I want to again state that I think every American girl, before adolescence, should be made to watch that movie "Not Without My Daughter" starring Sally Fields. It is the true story of an American woman married to an Iranian doctor. They went back to Iran for a visit, he went bonkers and fundamental Islamasist on her, and she had to get herself smuggled out of the country with her young daughter.

I never worried about my daughter getting involved with a Middle Eastern guy. Every time she ran into one at school, she remembered that movie. HA!

Yes, that's a powerful movie. I saw it years ago and I've never forgotten it. I've got a 21-year old daughter and although she's never seen the movie, she knows how I feel. Maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to get ahold of it. I don't think she's going to be so foolish, but she has friends.

I was just ill observing this young man at a family outing. He pretty much ignores the family, but takes care of the child and enjoys himsels in the pool. Ignored his wife and her family. His emphasis: child and self. Bad sign.
