Did you see the part about how she was going to raise them?

Posted By: Amanda on 2009-02-10
In Reply to: Did anyone see the interview with - fiddlestix

She was bragging that she does not receive welfare, but then they have admitted that she receives food stamps and two of the older children get SSI for disabilities. But, she said her source of income to raise them would be her student loans!

Anyone with a printer deskjet know why it prints a page with part of it dark and part of it light.

It is not printing uniformly.


It's not the dancing part, it's the people part that I don't like. K? We clear now?

She did NOT raise that boy the first 6 to 7
years of his life. That is a lie.
How much does she need to raise?

Did you raise them on your own

or is there someone else to share the blame?  Kids don't spoil themselves.


I do not think it is appropriate for any man to raise

If the child is that bad, send her to counseling.  Writing a report brings out all of the reasons the child has done the wrong.  Unless she's breaking the law, man-handling is not on the top of my list of punishments!  I disagree with your statements, and I disagree with blank rooms.  I think talking things out and finding out the root of the problem is the answer, not spanking or punishments that require imprisonment.  Obviously, the OP didn't feel the child had done that much wrong or the friend wouldn't have been allowed to spend the night.  That's all I have to say on this issue, which is ridiculous in this day and age of molesters.  Oh, and I was paddled on my bare bottom at age 10....  No, I wasn't too fond of men.  This issue is no different than a wife beater or child molester.....


asking for raise
I would just make contact with the person in charge of raises, and present your case (not from a 'need' perspective, but from a deserve perspective). Just form it as a request and touch on your high points!!
raise
It justs seems like with the cost of everything going up.  Also we get the best with working at home, but they do not pay vacation, benefits or anything else.  Why woudl it kill them to give a raise.
would rather raise 5 girls than 1 boy..sm

When boys grow up and become men, their *toys* become MUCH more expensive than girls (think boats, cars, motorcycles, ATVs, planes, trains, etc.).


I had such success with my girl that I want more girls *lol*


 


Looking for best place to raise a kid

I like where I live...but after a week from H E double toothpicks last week, I really feel that a bit of distance between myself and any family members would be better.  Long story short, you think your family will be there to help when you need it, but instead all you get is beaten down and end up feeling bad and having to deal with your crises by yourself anyway (it's the ONLY reason I moved back to this area a couple of years ago).


Currently, I live in the deep south and my city has an excellent !!! school system, but I know there are other good school systems out there.  So, here are some of what I would like in addition to a good school system.


Near water and mountains (could be lake or ocean, or state park), easy access to public transportation (in case my car breaks down), a good YMCA or city recreation center.


I've been looking at a borough just north of Philly, a couple of small cities in Virginia, a city north of Denver, some areas in North Carolina.  I would like to avoid the west coast unless it's somewhere in Washington State or Oregon.  I've considered the Reno area, but I've never been there and I don't know what the schools are like.


Any ideas?  Thanks!  


Anyone who never has to raise their voice to get (sm)
I have an 8 year old an almost 11 year old and my husband is gone a lot.  They are basically good children, never get in trouble at school except occasionally for talking, don't really do anything malicious or mean.  But sometimes the bicker incessantly with each other and many times I feel as if I have to tell them repeatedly to do something and finally have to get a mad voice before they listen -then their feelings are hurt because I raised my voice.  Right now my son is crying because I told him he has to help clean the house before he can have friends over this morning (he is almost 11).  On school days they don't want to help because they have been at school all day. On weekends they don't want to help because those are their only days off. I am making them help even though they don't want to, but why the tears? It makes me feel like a mean mom, but I can't do it all myself and don't feel I should have to. 
I would raise some caine, she is not - sm
abiding by the rules. I would either (1) give her a warning and inform her that you will revoke car privileges for two weeks if she comes home late again (3x and you are out basically), and if she wants to go anywhere she needs to get herself there and back by the appointed time, or she won't be allowed to go anywhere, or (2) revoke them now since she has already broken the rules 2 x.

If I knew I was going to be late I had to call to let my parents know, they did not care that it was 12:30 a.m. and I was to be home by 1, I was to call no matter what. I think I only had to do that once, roads were icy, and was not about to speed home to be on time. They were fine with it. Considering I was 16/17 when I was a senior my parents were pretty lenient, as long as I told then were I was, who I was with, and be home by the appointed time, 10 on school nights, 12 or 1 on weekends depending on what I was doing, dates were midnight generally, special dances 1 a.m. except for the Prom, got to okay to be out all night for that one. I was close to being late a few times due to haveing too good a time on dates, so makes you wonder what your daughter is up to. Just because she is 18 it is not a magic number of being allowed to do whatever she wants. She is still in school and you are still her parent no matter how "responsible" she seems to be for her age. You cannot be her friend, you are her mother.
I would raise 5 boys to 1 girl!
Girls cost too much.
I did not raise a debate, criticize the OP, or anything

Love Raise the Red Lantern
So few people enjoy foreign films - and I just love them. I want the Chinese, Indian, Japanese, European, Latin American - all of them. Hardly ever find a dud. I've seen every foreign film at Blockbuster at least once.

Have you watched the Red, White, and Blue triology by the French director? Can't think of his name right now, but all 3 films are simply superb and although each is separate, there is a common thread that he brings together at the end of the third movie.
Or they want to raise them so they can be killed in a senseless war!!
Not that I think it is good to kill fetuses either ... but why don't these people see their lack of logic!

And as far as the stem cells and embryos ... why don't they fight to stop allowing people to fertilize and freeze them to begin with (or more than they will surely use)?!!
If the mom was so bad, why did ANS let her raise Daniel for the first 6-7 years of his life?

Which are easier to raise -- boys or girls?
I was always told boys.  I had 2 girls and uff-dah what a hormonal nightmare.  Now I have a teenage boy and those hormones are at least as bad.  Prolly worse.
let's raise the flag *ROFL*.....lucky you....

It figures! I just found out they're going to raise my
29% next month! (And I always pay on time and far more than the minimum.) Well forget all that! I'm going to take the money out of what's left in my bank account (SAME bank, only savings only earns a measly .03% interest!) pay off the Mastercard, and just close the d@mned thing. I've had it with Wall Street, I've had it with negligent banks, and I've had it with greedy credit card companies. They can all go under for all I care, I'm going to pay cash from now on, and just keep a checking account for the debit/ATM card. The economy, banking system, and stock market never have, and never WILL, work for the 'little guy'. We were fools to fall for all that hooey. Sure hope the IRS doesnt mind the IOU they're gonna get from me this year, cause what goes around, comes around.
its better to raise kids in a happy divorced home

No where either. My mother didn't raise any foolish kids. LOL nm

Is it just me or does the fuel surcharge for speeders sound like another way to raise taxes? nm

I see by your birthdate that you weren't trying to raise a family during the Regan years -sm

We were lucky, my DH never lost his job, but the town we lived in had about a 75% foreclosure rate with vacant houses and most of the businesses closed down.


We ate a lot of Hamburger Helper, mac & cheese, Rice A Roni, and Top Ramen.  My 3 kids got their clothes and shoes at thrift stores, I went without.  DH went without. We would have qualified for food stamps, but the state couldn't afford to have a program.  Oh, and after Regan failed to get the school lunch program dumped completely he wanted ketchup declared a vegetable.   


There was no question of me working - first there were no jobs, and second anything I earned plus some would have gone to daycare.  Doctor and dentist visits were just about nonexistent because we couldn't afford insurance. 


After that hellish 8 years things slowly got better until W, and wow, it's like Deja Vu all over again!  Ain't it great?


I keep it in the office part time and on the patio part time
I've got the self-cleaning electric litter box (and boy is it worth the $100), and have a huge throw rug under it with a smaller rug by the litter pan that has a bumpy mat on top of it to catch the excess. I keep it in the office from April to October but on the patio from October to March as it is too hot in FL to leave the patio door open for them during the summer months. I also put out a spare box when we go out of town for the weekend.

Try a box that has deeper sides maybe, or not as much litter in it?
No part here either.

I cut color and style my own so I do it all different ways, but everytime I have ever had it done at a beauty shop they always parted it on the left.  If I wear mine with apart it is on the right.  They told me I do it backwards!  I think they did it because I have a huge scar on the front right of my forehead and they try to cover it up.  It is recommended to rotate it or do it zig zag so you won't have a trained part.


the part I wonder about:
what if that company goes out of business and you have a warranty?
I was part of the
When bad things happen, everybody goes "frugal," but a few things we have kept doing:

Frozen sandwhiches and frozen cupcakes. They thaw in time to be eaten, don't need refrigeration and can hold their own in a back pack!
maybe that was part of the problem...sm
I am not a huge fan of IE7 either, but I do not have any problems with it either, but this is just a thought...you are supposed to *remove* IE6 from your system entirely *before* putting IE7 on. Sam mfg or not, they have too many conflicts when on your system at the same time. My son is 'puter expert and he did mine and I specifically remember him taking IE6 off first. When you said your computer reverted to IE6 *automatically* then I knew what happened. It would not just revert *automatically* if you had taken it off in the first place. No wonder so many people are having problems with this!!! But I do have to admit that the downloading instructions are not clear on that point either...guess they just figure everyone is supposed to *know* this. You don't put two browzers over one another. good luck to you.
and you had better read that part again..sm
and obviously you always have to have the last word which again shows your ego. I asked you politely to drop it, but you just could not leave it alone. NOW it is the end of the debate, for the third and final time!
That's the part that would scare me (sm)
My daughter is grown, thank goodness.  I don't have to deal with this decision.  If I did have a daughter school age, I would be more concerned with the consequences years down the road from this vaccination.  It is just too new, in my opinion, and Gov. Perry is trying to shove it down our throats.  I would strongly object.
I don't think it's random, it might be part of the flu!
At least the same thing happened to my niece 2 weeks ago as she was coming down with the flu. She was in the bathroom, apparently just stood up and fell at the sink. My sister was blow drying her hair and didn't hear her go down, and just found her unconscious!
That part did not need to be stated at all--sm
as it surely led some to think that it was because he was Korean that he did this. He spent most of his school years in America, so he would not have had that particular culture that you brought up, in his head. He was a troubled young man and I surely don't think it was because he was Korean. JMO
What part of the south are you in?
Where I live, deep south, women certainly go that. Do not put an overall blanket on each statement, especially about the south because we already have to live down what others think of the south.
By the way, that's the plan..just have to get through this part first (nm)

Usually it would go on the painted part, but
type so that you can place it however you want.   Have fun at the dinner party.
It is not "Innocent" on her part!!!
"She also tells him that several men, married men, have been out there coming to call. She turned them all down because all she wants to do is raise her kids and ride horses." Did you hear yourself? She wants him to think she does not consider him in the same category as "the others." He is "different". Honestly, he sounds like a nice guy, loyal (so far), works hard, likes the kind of living that she does (horses, etc.) Just stay away from her and her land. Find some other land to lease. Go to the games with dh yourself. She is out to get a man and thinks YOUR MAN is THE ONE. They pick "nice ones" all the time because they think they can manipulate them. Of course, you could always let her know that you know what she is up to, but if you do she will probably whine to your dh and he will feel sorry for her for being "misjudged." If you stop it now, you won't have to deal with the mess that probably will come later! Good luck and I'm thinking about you.
Sorry about that "work on them" part - should have been

Do you part your hair?? (sm)
I don't part mine or my kids - I brush it and it has sort of a natural part, but I never do the old comb-parting thing. Just wondering if I am the odd one out? Hey - it says GAB board :-)
We all seem to have a natural part here. But I keep my

That works during the day for the most part, but...
at night I give him a set amount before I go to bed. If he eats it all, I get woken up at 4 in the morning! He'll pull on the blinds, knock over my lamp, and if I shut the door he starts digging at the carpet (and I'm renting!). I tried making him exercise more, but he usually just stares while I play with the toy!
I don't know about the supplying part
I think it is probably very easy to come by in LA, but investigated, definitely. She has 2 younger children. I realize that even parents that care about their children and try to raise them right still have problems, but this woman is as well known for her partying as for the fact that she is LL's mom.
I agree with the gym part
Ten years ago I was 60 pounds overweight at 28 years old.  I was very depressed and taking an antidepressant.  I lost about 40 pounds by changing my eating habits, then my stepfather got me going to his gym on a two-week free trial period.  I LOVED it!  I got addicted to working out, lots the last 20 pounds, had more energy throughout the day, and yes, I did feel better about myself with more confidence and was able to throw out the Paxil.  I can say I'm definitely happier being thinner because I have more confidence and am not afraid to ask for things I want, where before I would rather sit in a corner and not have attention brought to me. 
I liked the part where the guy had to run in front - sm
of his truck and put a rock under the tire to try to stop it, and it kept rolling over the rock. I had a truck like that once.....
I tell you what they do in this part of the country
I never liked stuffing - but here they make stuffing and make it like little balls (like a good handful) and bake it on a cookie sheet. 
I do get the part about the fights sometimes
guess it just doesn't get that out of hand in our house, and I guess in your mind it is not out of hand so I glad that works for you. I just have a hard time imagining my SIL and niece acting the way she describes. We do joke that they have been fighting since she was born and will fight till death. We joke that my SIL will be 95 and in a nursing home and when her DD comes to visit it will be like "Good God Lauren, is that the only dress you could find to wear? LOL
part-time job
When my now adult daughter was a senior in high school, she was president of two clubs, ran indoor and outdoor track and cross country, went to almost all basketball and football games, had senior trip, numerous other trips . . just seemed like it was money for something all the time. . She got a job - it did interfere with track practice but the coach let her slide on it and practice on her own. . . She worked every summer starting when she was 15. . Went to in-state college .. applied for every scholarship available and most of her 1st year was paid for. . During her sophomore year she worked 40 hours/week at Macy's and went to college full-time.. cut back her hours at Macy's junior and senior year but worked full-time in the summer. . With the cost of everything now... lots of parents just can't pay for everything.. and if you try, you are really hurting your kids because they need to learn that most people don't get a free ride. .
the lying is only part of it
Obviously there is more going on than just the fact that he is lying.. Why is he lying - what is he doing with the money?
I did not see the part you are talking about
and I don't have rewind here but she could really hurt herself with trying the high kicks at 68.

Second part of answer
He can take depreciation, but not truck payments. Don't ask me why. Some day I'll find out when I have time to play around with the IRS site.
