What you think does matter

Don’t try to grow up so Fast! I tell my daughter all the time - "don’t worry about growing up, that will happen. Enjoy being a child now, because when you do get old [ grow up ] you’ll wish you were a kid again". This leads me to a conversation I walked in on with my daughter and wife. I walk into the kitchen and bang the conversation stops [ clear sign I should get involved ]. So after poking my nose in - I find out that my eleven year old girl wants to "shave her legs" - so first I get defensive and ask why and throw in a "your too young". Then I get logical - I break it down for her with a series of questions: How old are you? Who are you trying to impress? Are you a model? Are you going somewhere other than school? What hair on your legs? [ still has thin small almost invisible baby hair. ] I told her look, I can’t see any hair to shave and if you start shaving now, the norm is that your baby hair will grow in thicker and then you will need to shave. S

My children love each other - they also love to BUG each other. It’s no lie - they wake up - and ten seconds later, their arguing about something or other. The funny thing is that they can't live without each other. Today, they hijacked my bed and kicked me out. So hear I am awake way to early in the morning and they decide their going to fight about little Isaac breathing to hard. it was bothering her, she [ kiki ] couldn't sleep because her little brother was breathing too hard. hey, what about me.... it's my bed you two guys kicked me out of and I can't sleep because your in MY BED... So I did the next best thing.... I found a couple of videos to distract them while I ran away to find some peace and quite.

Exploiting my Children online ? ? ? ? Interesting, I was asked if I felt ok with Exploiting my children.. When I asked, what they meant by “exploiting my children” - they said : “You know, putting them out there on the internet for all the world to see. Don’t you think your exploiting them - by putting their life on display for people to see?” It was an interesting thought. And I could see why people would think that - they think it because they’ve seen what happens to child TV stars and lets not forget all the wacko’s out there. But let me explain a few things - at least from my personal life. My children are the world to me. They are the joy of my life and the air I breath. When my little girl was born I promised to be there for her, unlike my father who left when I was five. As she grew up I realized two things - one, time and age will erode my memory of all the good things I have done and do for my children. So I started keeping a journal and a large book of photos, mementos and co

Well, this one has left me for a loss of words. I can't believe people actually throw thier babies off a fifteen tfeet tall tower as a ritual of health and luck. Waht is more suprissing is the fact that the authorities do nothing about it?? What do you think?????????

I read in the newspaper how a 13 year old boy held his mother captive against her will. Imagine that - your child charged by a court of law for "Kidnapping" and the victim, his Mom!!!!! [ see copy of news clip below ] This is why I believe in discipline and in "corporal" punishment. I believe that your child should have a healthy dose of respect for his/her parent and some fear too. Fear of punishment will help your child to listen when thier small and respect you when thier big [ that is if your respectable ]. The facts are that my children will grow, will get stronger and I , well I will grow old and weaker. I've seen parents in NY who basically lost all control of thier children and it sad to see the children run the home and worst - to see a child beat up on a parent. Do you think she was wrong for calling the COPS? If I were her, they would have called the cops on me to rip his dead corps from my closed fist.......... Police: Kid Kidnaps Mom By Joe Seelig

I was wondering if your pro Iraq war and for the Soldiers staying to finish the job - what does this picture make you think and feel? I personally believe that it would be another vietnam if we leave. A crime [ right or wrong ] to send our Soldiers and then not give them the support they need or allow them to win.

Ok, forgive me for my rant but - who the hell gave the school any right to provide birth control pills or products to children [ pre-teen , teenagers ] ? I am not saying that this will cause children to have more sex - but it sure will give them an easier path in thinking and acting on the impulse. If you watch the video below there is a girl dressed up in what appears to be Muslim garment of women attire. She appears to be scoping out the area before she enters the clinic???? Again, I know if kids want to “do it” as Whoppi used the term on the “View”, their going to. I also know it’s up to the parents to teach their children the best they can and instill in them moral standards. Be it religious and waiting till marriage or just moral and waiting for the right time. But the school has no right to help children achieve something that other wise is a private matter with parents, teenagers, and their [ oh God ] partners…… They say it’s to control spread of diseases and teenage pregnancies

Camera’s have a weird effect on people- It doesn’t matter who you are someone always want you to take a photo or a picture. And boy does it take for ever for that right photo. Oh, and God forbid if that video gets on youtube [ call the Paparazzi ]….

I remember I couldn't wait for my children to be potty trained, why - becuase them things are expensive man. And babies run thru'em like water.....
