that their marriages are never forced and that these girls have a choice? They are too young to make that choice, but they are also raised and conditioned to think it is okay. It is all they know. It makes me literally sick. It is particularly insulting and disgusting when people do such things in the name of religion.

Hey, have at it. If you want a lazy, apathetic, not affectionate, doesn't listen, doesn't make
can reach him!!! Let me know if you're interested.
It doesn't make me mad but it doesn't sound intelligent either (sm)
I am sure if all of those people who were aborted were living, some would be good and some would be bad, in the same proportion as there is good to bad now. Your statement makes no sense. So somehow the babies who were aborted were meant to be aborted because they were bad seeds? Whatever. Sorry, that's just silly.
Was this supposed to make us sick so we don't

I'm sick of trying to figure out what to make. Any ideas?
With hubby on Coumadin and having gout besides, he's on a very restricted diet. No more leafy greens (saladas-out!), or even green beans (his gout starts acting up!). I can go meatless for myself, but he has to have meat or fish. He should have more poultry, but he hates chicken. I must have tried 20,000 chicken recipes and he just doesn't like them.
Our main diet is now ground sirloin in meals that use 1 pound or less, potatoes, rice, yellow wax beans, and pasta, fish of all kinds and cuts, beef or pork roast on Sunday, ham slice once in a while or half a ham slice if it is thick, steak once in a while no more than 4 ounces, soups or stews, and casseroles (don't care for soup or stews myself). Getting tired of it. I love Mexican and Chinese. He says they don't fill him up.<sigh>
Anybody with any ideas? I have a wall of cookbooks and some online recipes I printed, but nothing turns him on lately. Everything is either too spicy, too bland, flavorless, etc. etc. Don't know where to turn.
Even though it used to happen, doesn't make it right.
Honestly the humilitation of being paddled by a man in front of my mother would have sent me into hysterics. I was paddled a couple times in school, and yes it hurt a LOT, by a principal and a teacher but it was always in private, but even with the witness it was always really embarrassing. I hated it, sticking my be-hind out for all the world to see so someone could try to get me to cry.
I don't think humiliation is a good punishment, don't like shame. Pain isn't either.
TV doesn't make it true
I used to work for the Division of Research at Kaiser doing stress testing (I have an MS in Exercise Physiology). The weight limit for the treadmill is 350 pounds, & if a study participant weighed more than that, they could not do that part of the study. Period. They're not going to break a machine letting someone who outweighs its limits get on it!
If it were absolutely essential for her to get a treadmill test (which it wasn't in terms of the study), you can bet I would have suggested a vet lab, except now there are non-exercise tests that do the same thing. In the case of the MRI machine, it's not that it would break but apparently it would do her no good; the image would be useless if it were opened wide enough to accommodate her.
So in other words, their telling her what she needs to do in order to get an accurate image for the purpose of diagnosing a potentially lethal condition is something that makes her angry??? What the heck is next? Someone pushes me out of the way of a speeding locomotive & I sue him or her because I get some bruises? Good grief.
Doesn't make much sense since this is the gab board???? NM

Just because you didn't have it doesn't make me a liar
As to the number of people affected by this, the links below prove there are very many, and their symptoms are NOT simply a little depression. Its sooo nice for YOU that your statistic ended up on the "no problems" side; so why would YOU bother to educate yourself?
But your good fortune does not make ME a liar or a kook. And the pills I take are PAIN pills, so take a chill pill yourself, and stop denying that this is real for others simply because it is not real for YOU.

I just read my post, if it doesn't make sense
feel free to e-mail if this is something you are interested in.
I personally wouldn't, but that doesn't make it wrong for you
I've heard of people charging their adult children not in college rent for living at home, but then putting that rent money into a savings account for the child when the child goes to buy a house.
Also, while I said I personally wouldn't, if times were tough for the husband and me, I might change my mind. It's fair to ask somebody to help with expenses when necessary, and they shouldn't end up needing therapy over it if it was an economic necessity at the time.
As for the cell phone and the car expenses, ABSOLUTELY I would expect the child to pay his own way on those expenses. That's a bit different in my mind from charging for a roof over their head, as those tend to be more discretionary expenses - the child can pay cash for a car or he can get a $30,000 loan or anything in between. He can get an iPhone with a 2-year contract and a $100/month bill, or he can get a prepaid phone for less than $30/month. Expecting the child to pay those expenses ensures that he learns the value of money and the power of his choices on his standard of living.
I am sorry to hear about your house. I hope that you can somehow make a financial recovery.
Actually, it was usually co-workers or friends that I would hear boast about their refunds, and none of them were on public assistance (that I knew of anyway).
As an aside, I am a single parent who gets to claim the EIC. I am the sole support for my daughter so every penny counts. I guess I do not consider stressful to keep money in savings. For me, it alleviates stress to have that safety net there for emergency expenditures or unforeseen events. I also take advantage of all the pre-tax contributions I can claim in the form of IRAs, an HSA, and my little one's 529 account. I guess it is just a different way of looking at things.
Doesn't offend me to hear Happy Holidays, Happy Hannuka...sm
or any way someone wants to greet me. As a basic rule, people use the greeting most comfortable to the speaker. What does burn my butt is when someone tries to tell me that my comfortable greeting of "Merry Christmas" is not appropriate. To those who are not concerned with my comfort, I have no concern for theirs.
Merry Christmas to all.
Sick of snow...sick of cold...sm
that lil ground rat just HAD to see his shadow, didn't he! aaarrrggghhh.
Agreed! Hear, hear...amen, sister!

Did not hear about the porn but did hear
there might be a conflict about her babies going home with her when they were able to be dismissed. You can hardly blame anyone for questioning how she will take care of them. From what I have seen, she hardly seems stable enough to do that.
At that rate, I could make in a week what I make

You are sick
You need a therapist. You told another poster that you have a relative coming to visit - so, this relative can't go to dinner with you and your friend?
It's extremely obvious to any thinking person that you don't have many friends. Your arrogance and self-absorption come through in your every word. It would be interesting to get your friend's point of view on this. I'd bet my first born that this is NOT the first time you've done this, despite what you said to the poster above.
Right back at you - glad I don't know you either. I run in higher class circles.
I am sick about it
Did you see on the news the senator (I believe), an elderly gentlaman who was so furious about this. He said that the hottest places in h____ are for those who abuse God's innocent creatures. Good for him. I am waiting for the day when all of these offenses against animals are considered a felony.
sick with the flu right now
ahhhhhhhrrrrrrrgggggggg
when i am sick,
i keep on working and just try to take care of myself. my husband was sick during his vacation and never stopped complaining about how tired he was, how terrible he felt, blah, blah, blah. it drove me nuts! he never offered any sympathy when i was ill AND working! (pardon my whining)
Am I sick or what?
I am typing a lady with appendicitis. Am I sick to think, "She's so lucky. She got out of cooking Thanksgiving dinner."
How sick is that!!!

What a sick SOB....sm
Animal abuse REALLY fires me up. I am a true animal lover, especially dogs. I think they should break both of his front legs and he should not be given anything for pain either. They should let him sit there a couple days too before taking him to the hospital to have surgery to repair them. And while he is sitting there with two broke legs he should have to fend for himself. No tolerance at all when it comes to animal abuse. They wouldn't want me to be the judge in this case.
We were really sick here in TN...
for 2 weeks straight with a bad cold - horible cough, congestion, high fever, sore throat, body aches. We were tested for flu and strep, both of which were negative. Maybe could have been mono? Anyway, I don't think I've ever been that sick in my life.
So you would rather be sick than preggers ...
Ya, me too.
:op
Emergency sick day!
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS just arrived by UPS!
How am I going to work now???
(kidding of course)
That makes me sick.

People are sick!!
What is wrong with people? How could anyone do harm to their kids? Just last night a lady here in SC stomped on her 6 m/o baby and then choked her to death. She is an 18 y/o mother and also has a 4 y/o son, who is now in protective custody. These people need to find Jesus!!
you wouldn't think it was so sick if you had GID

People are going to get sick of me but... sm
The real tragedy is that some gays and lesbians will NEVER be able to have a fufilling life or relationship because they are too afraid to be themselves.
As I said earlier, I have many friends who are either gay or lesbian. I have also lost friends to suicide because they were too ashamed to come out or their families just simply could not accept who they really were.
A girl I worked with many years ago, whom I also considered a good friend, ended her life because her family would just never accept her for who she was.
Her family was Hispanic and very very traditional. This business was just not going to fly with them.
Gloria didn't see any other way and she took her own life. It was horrible.
I never ever want to even think I might be responsible for something like that because one of my children or friends was too afraid to be open and honest with me about their preferences.
Thank you - I appreciate it - yes, he's rarely sick (sm)
and if he gets even a cold he goes to the doctor and takes a day off from work and lays in bed all day. I wish I could have health that good!
I am so sick of hearing about
I have heard enough!
Apparently she still has all of her female parts, except breasts...she gave birth vaginally...so it's NOT A MAN...IT'S A WOMAN. I certainly hope that losing one's breasts does not disqualify us from being a woman. This poor child is going to be so confused when she learns the circumstances of her birth. Not to mention that the other woman is breast feeding her...I feel for the innocent baby who is going to be the one to pay for her parents stupidity!
sick to my stomach
Hopefully when he dies, he will have to live among cats who kick him for an eternity.
I am so sick about the the economy
All those people on TV are talking about a 400.00 or more increse in their mortgages. They spent over 600.00 a month on extras. This was on Operah. I can't believe that these people don't have a clue.
Between the 400.00 and the 600.00 on extras...that is what I get in one month.
I have cut back as much as I thin is possible and it is still difficult to make ends meet. I even have went so far as to unplup everything that I am not using.
How do you cope?
I have always been a little sick of having get everyone a present
It's ridiculous. It's Jesus' birthday, not everyone elses. I would be very happy if I could get away with only buying for my own children for Christmas morning from "santa," and I wouldn't care if nobody got me anything or anybody else got anything for my kids.
It is just so stinking ridiculous to have to buy for my mom, my sister and her spouse, my sister-in-law and her spouse, my brother-inlaw and his spouse, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, two aunts and uncles, three nephews, three neices, and two cousins.
I am just so sick of the money that is spent for all this cr@p. And it is cr@p. Last year one of my daughters got a piano book from her aunt, and she doesn't even freakin take piano lessons. Might as well just flush your money down the toilet.
You could have been sick or dead
in your room for all they knew. wonder what they would have told investigators? The next time they make plans, don't go, tell em you got a ham operator to send out a morse code message, didn't they get it?
sick pets
I get my critters from the shelter also and have brought home sick animals before. I would just take him to vet tomorrow. PLEASE AVOID Banfield at PetSmart. Usually vets offices have a few morning hours on Saturday. Take him tomorrow.
It really makes me sick
that psychiatrists these days are so quick to say "just cut ties and get on!"
Have you tried couples counseling like suggested above? Or talking? Maybe speaking with a pastor? Is your husband expecting this or is it going to be a big surprise?
Don't just give up on your marriage. Just because it's not the fairy tale every little girl dreams of doesn't mean that it can't work out and become amazing. But it takes work. Lots of it. There is no such thing as an easy marriage.
Take care, and please, don't just go off of what your psych says!
My new puppy is sick!!!
Okay, everybody, my new puppy that I love so much already has parvo and is in the hospital. She went in yesterday morning. So far, so good. No vomiting and no diarrhea for 41 hours, but they are not wanting me to bring her home.
Can someone tell me if she is not vomiting and has no diarrhea and she is eating, what are they doing for her that I cannot do here at home? I would rather her be here so that I can watch her. If she got sick again, the vet's office is only 1/2 mile from my house - couldn't I run her back real quick (it is a 24-hour manned hospital)?
Anyway, everybody do what you do - say a prayer, send good vibes our way, whatever your choice is! Just wish us back to good health!
sick of that crap!!!
Kids aren't safe anywhere.....Just this weekend in sunny Atlanta we have an grandfather kill his 6yo grandson and wife over a watermelon and a guy with a shotgun go in his backyard and threaten to blow his brains out!!! There are tons more other stories about people getting shot and everything here, it is common.... My husband uses guns to hunt and that is what they should be used for.... THE SHOOTING NEEDS TO STOP!!!! I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE GETTING SHOT or THREATENING TO SHOOT PEOPLE!!!
that's kind of sick. For some men it is
much more fun when it is forbidden or has to be done in a hidden way. That's also the reason for having affairs behind the wife's back.
Heard that also. I didn't even know he was sick.

Too weird, too sick. Nuff said (nm)

To the person with the sick puppy
Immediately check out this list. The brands you have been giving the puppy are on this list. Thousands of dogs and cats have died from renal failure.
If you go outside in the cold with a wet head you'd get sick...sm
the principal at my daughter's school thought that was still true until I showed him studies that showed it doesn't make you sick, it only gives you a cold head. I wouldn't let a child go outside if it's below 20 with a wet head but I do have a child that hates blow drying her hair and doesn't mind a cold head, so I leave it up to her when it's above 20 outside and she gets a shower before school.
