jeanniekerns I am a mother of 6 and in 5 months will be 7.. I am choosing home birth. I prefer the atmosphere of home instead of a hospital. I have had 6 babies naturally with no drugs, and think that it would be much more comfortable in my home where my other children can...

Dishonest to Hide Sexuality?

ControlledChaos @ControlledChaos (179) • United States 19 Jan 07

If you are gay, is it dishonest not to share that part of your life with your family and closest friends? If you were seeing someone special I think it would only be fair to come out to everyone, but what if you aren't involved...

jeanniekerns It's no ones business but the one who is gay. It's sad that gay people just can't be honest with who they are because they are afraid what others would think. As I said before its their business and that's that..

dextrophobia @dextrophobia (155) • United States 17 Jan 07

jeanniekerns I think manslaugter is a little far fetched.I am totally against men hitting women as well, but there are circumstances where women hit men abusively too. Some men have to defend themselves against their violent spouse or partner. Its not just the men hitting...

Religion = lack of intelligence?

hassanchop @hassanchop (820) • United States 9 Jan 07

Studies have been done showing that the lower one's IQ, the higher one's chances are of believing in a God or gods or religion in general. Does real life tend to show this, in your experience? In honesty, I've experienced this...

jeanniekerns Its more ignorance than anything. Religion is nothing what it use to be. It is an excuse for everything now. There are so many different rules now when it comes to religion I don't see how people keep up. I "was" a catholic a long time ago.Now I don't even...

Could you live without buying anything new for a year?

ElusiveButterfly @ElusiveButterfly (45941) • United States 8 Jan 07

jeanniekerns See people take this the wrong way. This is one woman's vision of Jolie. I think its a shame that people are bashing her for it. It is ART.. Plain and simple. There was no hidden meaning to the painting and it clearly shows. People need to stop reading so much...

Bratz dolls - banned at my house!

LeslieD @LeslieD (59) • United States 6 Jan 07

Ok, I know I'm an older mom, but when I see the Bratz dolls on the shelves, it makes me sad. All the make up, the short mini skirts, the hoochie clothing. Disgusting. I know Barbie wasn't exactly the best roll model for a...

jeanniekerns I completely disagree with you on this. I respect your opinion and others. But I do disagree. I am a 37 year old mother of 6 children in the ages of 5 to 20 and in my opinion sugar coating things in life is the worse thing you can do to your children. Bratz...

Tell me why it is or isn't ok for your husband to leave the house without having to say where he is going? And if you are the husband tell why you do or dont say where you're going everytime you leave the house.

jeanniekerns There really isnt any problem with a man not saying where he is going if there is trust in the relationship. I have been married almost 20 years and my husband tells me simply because he wants to not because he has to. Some men/woman need privacy, and there is...

Should teenage girls and boys be treated the same?

mskim2u2004 @mskim2u2004 (355) • United States 7 Jan 07

Growing up, I was always told that I can't do what boys do simply because of me being a girl. I never thought this was fair. For instance, why did my teenage brother get to stay out much later than me and nothing be said to him....

jeanniekerns I have 4 girls and 2 boys.. And I have raised each one the same. And would not have done it any other way. It is ridiculous to raise them differently just because of gender. They do the same things, they get into trouble the same ways. In my view girls are...
