US teen runaway mistakenly deported

US teen runaway mistakenly deported to Colombia ? This burns my butt.... First, she was not mistakenly deported. If you read the whole story she was arrested for stealing and she gave a false name. She then was prosecuted, charged, went thru deportation process, arrived in Columbia took her papers, accepted the help and started working at a call center [ without even knowing how to speak Spanish mind you ] and never once told anyone "hey, I am an American citizen". How is that a mistake? What really burns my butt is that this kid proves the retardation that happens in this world and in any government. You are sent back to your country [ in this case falsely because she lied about who she was ] and what does Columbia do - hey you broke the law but come here we are going to welcome you home, give you assistance and give you a job - do you speak Spanish? No, it's OK no one really cares at a call help center.... Give me a break..... Not to mention that she is pregnant? So, di

How private is your Bathroom? embarassing moment.

Let me share some friendly advice: How private is your Bathroom? How private is your bathroom? Family advice think twice. I remember when I was a kid my older sister played a horrible mean joke on me. When I was a child [ wow I sound old ] I had this fear of someone walking into the bathroom when I was using it - you know …. #2.… The whole idea was dreadful to me. I didn’t even use the bathroom when I was in school because people - you know - they can hear you. For crying out loud, people sit in the stall next to you. But one day I am nervously using the bathroom [ don’t forget I was a child, I believe about 7 or 8 ] and my older sister decided to burst into the bathroom with two of the next door kids, just for kicks, you know - torture and embarrass your little brother. Possibly scar him emotionally for life, no biggie - all in fun. So lets just say it took me for ever to get over that one. So why do I bring it up? Because today I was at work and my office is in this small cross hal

When you thought I wasn't looking

WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING A message every adult should read because children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately wanted to paint another one. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make my favorite cake for me, and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life. When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and I knew that there is a God I could always talk to, and I learned to trust in Him. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it, and I learned we have to take care of what we

Parenting Advice: REACH FOR YOUR GUNS !!!!

Parenting Advice: REACH FOR YOUR GUNS !!!! Before you think my “Parenting Advice” is abusive or comes from the NRA [ national riffle association ] handbook let me just say - it’s a figure of speech. My parenting advice is meant to [ Mom or dad - best both ] have a plan of action. Let me tell you a little story - here I am walking thru the grocery store and I notice a Mom with a small child [ looks to be 4 yrs old ] and she seems to be loosing it. Her kid is not listening to her, he is embarrassing her and she seems to be frozen - unsure what to do. Me, I would have smacked him up side the head [ figure of speech people ] and put and end to it. But many people think different. I had people say they don’t hit their child in public because they don’t want people talking [ clarification - nosy people calling child services ]. Some have told me that they just talk to their children they don’t hit them... Others - they just freak - their so embarrassed that their kid is acting up in public
