... the little twerp Duke set himself up for an insult. He said he may never have kids because the world is such a controlling, evil, miserable place. What kind of sappy self-pity is that? That is laughable! Poor Duke, the world is so mean!


Tina, please refrain from personal insults. It's okay to have contrary opinions, but they should be expressed politely. And please try to avoid straying too far from the topic.

Better yet, I could just delete your post. But I won't.

Sorry Gord, but that will not be happening. But thank you for your ongoing participation.


Anyway, I'm with you, Caden's mama. You have my sympathy. Otherwise, I don't know what to add that hasn't already been expressed so well by many others. Let us know how things go for Caden on the hair front.

Come to think of it, how old is your daughter that you still have to tell her when to take a shower?

Tina: Sometimes kids turn out good IN SPITE OF thier parents. So it IS possible to be a horrible parent and still have a well adjusted friendly lovely kind and good child. Im not saying you or anyone here is a bad parent, just that it is possible. So you telling us how wonderful your girl is doesnt take you off the hook.

Anyways, you are not and never will be my mother, nor can you ever compaire to or even come close to my mother. So kindly leave your parenting to your own child and take a bath yourself!


...and as an aside, I think you are simply trying to ruffle everyones feathers and get into arguements for the sake of conflict. Personaly i love debating on controversial subjects and am happy when they show up, off topic or not, however you are not debating. Your name calling and in-your-face-this-is-how-things-are additude is not debate. Its harrassment.

Besides, I dont even think I can take it seriously. I belive you say such as you do because you like to stir people up. I picture you sitting there laughing at the reactions your getting. Pure enjoyment on your part.

But such is life and such is the likes of you.

Why are these tangents "stupid" Duke.
We were just having some fun. Lighten up boy.

And this wouldn't be the first thread that went on a "tangent". Sometimes these threads are more fun when they go where they will. You ever heard of the buddhist expression "go with the flow"?

As far as raising kids, if I'm so wrong about it why do I have a beautiful, smart, loving, well adjusted daughter who has nice friends who she gets along with. My daughter is a good kid. If I was doing such a bad job as you seem to think, she wouldn't be as good as she is.
I get a kick out of people who don't have kids telling us that do what a bad job we are doing. Now if I was beating my kid or negleting her you might have a point but I'm not doing that.

This thread has gone off on a stupid tangent. All because I made an "aside" comment that I intend to not have children because I don't want to bring more people into this world. Since then, the thread has been full of debate (not always the friendliest) on this issue and other irrelevant ones. How about we try to close this topic with a few points:

1) I do not expect everyone to agree with everyone, but we could try to mutually respect each other's opinions. I highly disagree with Tina on how to raise children and on whether or not even to have them, but I did not make fun of her views, call her a "little twerp" etc. Tee hee indeed.

2) We all see the human race in different ways. My view of it is probably more complex than what was expressed above and I don't see a point in clogging the discussion with this topic, or with jokes about it.

3) The original post was about Cadensmama being shocked that her mother-in-law took her son behind her back and had his hair cut. Does anyone have any final comments about THIS, or have we all spoken our mind? I think there is enough to show that the grandmother should not have done it. It gave both mother (for having the son dragged off like that without her knowing) and son (for having a haircut forced on him) trauma and it was totally unnecessary. The grandmother didn't want the poor kid's long hair to "embarrass" her in front of her possibly stodgy, sexist-minded friends, so she forced a haircut on him. Now she's not allowed close to him without mom being around! Are you still there, Cadensmama? How are things developing with Caden and the family?

I beg to differ! I do not stink and neither do any of the other animals! Excepting maybe the musking snakes and skunks. But, speaking as an animal and having smelled other animals, I do not feel we stink. ...well people who wear perfumes stink...but thats another story.

Ouch, Tina... I only write when I have something to say. And you? LOL... Karen/Dave: shouldn't Lyris and I qualify for a plaque or something? Or at least a lock of Karen's gorgeous hair!

I'm not really interested in the subject matter, but I figure I'm the 75th response to this one. Is that some sort of record?

Actually Jacqui my five year old daughter is a wonderful little girl; she's pretty, smart and well-behaved, maybe better than what I deserve.

Well you know what they say, there are always diamonds in the rough, or something like that. My daughter is a little gem!

With four kids you must be busy. Like we say in the upper midwest, oof da!

I have to say - I think it's absolutely gorgeous the way this conversation has been swerving from one topic to another!

Tina - Congratulations on the new belly! I have a feeling that with a "savvy" mom like you, your offspring may grow to be positive and productive inhabitants of this planet - whether you like it or not.

I will throw down a few buds for you tonight

Cheers.

Thanks Uzi - you know just what to say to give me a pick me up! Been a busy day today.

Monica _ I have expeienced that same type of loss - It is definitely rough going around the due date. I hope that you are finding some peace in your life.

Something like half the people in Wisconsin have German surnames.

And that's tough for a person from Wisconsin! Half of our diet is cheese, beer and bratwurst!

Tina, with that comment, you would get along in Germany just fine!!!
