as far as any animal abuser goes.  These are not little children--these are TEENAGERS.  Dollars to doughnuts they've done this before....They were just caught this time. 

You are right, cats are animals and not people.  Animals cannot speak for themselves.  They cannot call anyone for help.  They cannot defend themselves against the ultimate predator--us, but yet we brought them into this world to make our lives richer.  It is therefore our responsibilty to ensure their safety.

You are fortunate you can stay naive to such atrocities commited against animals and can shrug it off as just a couple of messed up girls who need a hug.   It's just a newspaper clipping to you. 

After a divorce is final...what are your thoughts on the mother and her child requesting that their names be changed back to her maiden name?

"Traditionally, courts ruled that a father had an automatic right to have his child keep his last name if he continued to actively perform his parental role. Although there is still some bias in this direction, it is no longer strictly true. Now a child's name may be changed by court petition when it is clearly in the best interest of the child to do so. When deciding whether to grant a name change, courts consider many factors, such as the length of time the father's name has been used, the strength of the mother-child relationship and the need of the child to identify with a new family unit (if the change involves remarriage). The courts must balance these factors against the strength and importance of the father-child relationship. What this all boils down to is that it's up to a judge to decide which name is in the child's best interest."

What would really be in the childs best interest if he doesn't grow to know his father anyway? keep the last name? or change it?

Katee, Courtney, Joshua and Twitch.  Then they did the first elimination, which was Courtney and the second was Katee. 

Then down to the final TWO:  Joshua and Twitch.

JOSHUA IS THE FINAL WINNER!!!!    $250,000 PRIZE! 

I dearly loved Twitch too!  When Joshua won Twitch hugged him and he held up Joshua's arms!!! 

I HATE THE FACT THE DONATOS WON - I want to vote at cbs site for Eric to push Daniele to win because then she and Dick will be at each other's throats once again - because he'd probably want half the $$ if it all goes to her.  *LOL* - money matters and family often cause problems *laughs*
