This is a really tough question, dawnald. I have a 15 yr old daughter. I am thinking that if she went so far as to commit murder just to see how it felt then she must have some serious mental issues that should be addressed. I know some parents do let their kids run wild but most do not turn into murderers as a result. When a young person commits a crime as serious as murder then there is more ...

Your parents may be kind and loving in many ways but from what I am reading here, in many ways they have been a big part of your lack of self-esteem and continue to be. I am a parent and all of my kids are very different from each other. I would think your parents would be happy for you just because you are working in a field that you love and that you are able to fend for yourself. Working as ...

Hi there Arun,Well it isn't easy at all. The prices of everything just keep on going up and our paychecks stay the same so yes...it can be pretty difficult making ends meet. Right now it is just me and my 15 yr old daughter. We just do the best we can to keep everything going but there is little left over for anything other than putting food on the table and keeping up with the bills.[em]h...

I do thank them but not to their face. All the people who have wronged me and hurt me have ultimately made me stronger. I would never have guessed it at the time but I became a much stronger person. I don't seek these people out and have no desire to be friends with them but I have found a place where I can be peaceful to them without letting them into my personal life.

No, I do not think they should have been arrested. A tip is a gratuity or should be anyway. I know there are people who tip very cheap even when they get great service but still the tip should not be expected. I think that it is dead wrong to include the tip in the bill to begin with and it takes away the incentive of the waitress to do a good job as well as possibly with any luck get a greater...

I would have been hurt. I know I would have been and especially since she told you she was coming home and would come to visit you. I understand that when you return home after being away for awhile that it can be overwhelming.How long was she home for. I do know that family and then having the kids can just eat up your time and before you know it, it is time to leave again. Still, she should h...

I am not even really ready for Thanksgiving and certainly not Christmas. I love the holidays and I know everything will pull together just fine but I just can't buy into all the commercialism. Finances are really tight so in that sense it will be small. The Christmas spirit will hit me before Christmas. It always does but I can tell you that it won't hit before Thanksgiving.[em]happy[/em]

I learned all this the hard way, Hatley. I got married right out of highschool to a guy that I really didn't know well enough. I did trust but oh I trusted too easily.

I don't understand how they can't care about what this obese child is going to go thru with self-esteem as well as their health. I really don't understand why their doctor doesn't say anything. It may not be deliberate abuse but it is really is.

It is really sad, dawnald & you really had me doing some deep thinking earlier. I don't understand these young people that have so little value for human life and their lack of compassion just blows me away. Where does that come from? There is so very much of it these days. It wasn't always this way.
