The 'breastfeeding' debate

Quote From: ibfnpublic

amen!!

Breastmilk may be better, but why make people who can't breastfeed for whatever reason, medical, for example, why make those mothers feel like they aren't giving their children the best?  Its not fair.  Many children weren't breastfed and ended up happy, intelligent, healthy adults, should they be made to feel bad because they weren't breastfed?  Its a choice.  And for those who cannot breastfeed, I think its cruel to go on and on about how much better breastfed babies are.  And as for those who shouldn't say things because they don't have children, maybe they can't, so rubbing it in their face a little more is just mean.   

Women who choose to breastfeed in public, as long as they are well covered and discrete, its fine, but women who don't want to 'cover up' are just doing it to get someone to stare or 'make a statement'  in which case, I'd just ignore them anyway.

09/16 Pretty/Ugly

That mother that treated one daughter better than the other, shouldn't have children, period!  How awful to show the world what kind of shallow, mean, unloving, uncaring, creep she is!  She should have her daughter taken from her for 'mental abuse'.  I just wanted to throw a rock at the 'witch'.  That poor child needs a real mother.  She doesn't look like she'll ever change.  Only if something happens to her looks will she understand....maybe.  That woman may be pretty on the outside, but she's sure as hell ugly on the inside.

Tragedy

I just saw the show about this tradgedy.  I want to convey my thoughts and prayers with the family.  I ended up in tears.  

 It reminded me of how my sister was 'stalked' by the town 'wacko' recently and the police dept. told her, unless she dated him, she couldn't do anything, no restraining order, no report, etc..  She knew him by seeing him in town and saying hello, he took this as some sort of 'come on'.  He started to threaten her online.  The policeman told her, maybe u should go out with him once, I said what? to kill her?!  then they said maybe she should have 'someone' talk to him.  She said, 'so someone has to call u to tell u this jerk killed me is what your telling me, when u can do something?'  The police officer said, 'yes, basically'.  And she's an adult.  I was so upset, I'm in another state, that I went onto her the town website (which was my hometown) and told them how I felt.  The next day I got a call from the Capt. of the police dept.  I then told him what happened and we had it straightened out and she filed a report and spoke to the Capt. and his Lt. and spoke with them of what can be done which was more than the other officers told her. They were not only surprised at what I told them their officers said, but wanted the officers name to straighten 'him' out.  But my thoughts were the same of, 'what will he do next?' 

But seeing this show, only outrages me to think that if you have money, you can get out, no matter what.  They should definately work on the law change.  How many people have to be killed, or tortured before something is done?!  Like most things, so many people have to die before anything is done.  I pray that no more lives are taken because of this law.  One child lost is one too many. 

Caitlin and her family are in my prayers.

Kick him to the curb

Quote From: edithschmck

He threw a pan of hot food on her?  That is physical abuse.  He is an abuser and probably always will be.  Time to call it quits in my opinion.
That food dumping would be more than enough! I totally agree.  Forget 'saving' anything, once an abuser, always an abuser!

young or old

although its true that some couples are in it for the wrong reasons, there are many that are in it for the right reasons.  My grandfather was 16 years older than my grandmother and they were married for 52 years and had 6 daughters!

On the other hand, a friend of mine checked out the 'sugardaddies.com' and many of those 'sugardaddys' are MARRIED and looking for a mistress!  My friend told one of the men that she didn't want any married man, and he said, 'well then ur at the wrong site'.   So I can't believe the fact its not just to find a man (or woman) with money, or to date,  but its mostly for married men looking to cheat!  And outright admitting it.  I think Dr. Phil should look into that site a little more!  Online dating is the way it goes most of the time now (welcome to the 21st century), but infidelity still doesn't 'fly'.

Enza is no help

Its amazing with all thats going on, she's so busy 'pointing' fingers and going on like she's the know it all.  My friends had a daughter like the teen in the show.  No matter what she did this child who was very intelligent decided to be 'stupid' with drugs, boys, etc, meanwhile her mother tried to help her go down the right path.  The girls father was a worthless alcoholic. She's now lost her kids, has a drug addict boyfriend and could care less about anything other than getting high.  My friend has always blamed herself, and her daughter blames her mother constantly. And its all an excuse, because she knows her mother will be the scapegoat.  My friend will prob. have to raise her grandchildren.  And of course the family goes and points fingers blaming her etc., yet, these same people are worse in the morals and family caring dept.  I think Enza is making it about 'her'.  Its bad enough with what the family is going through, but a relative who's so busy fingerpointing, etc, usually is just as guilty if not more than the people in situation.
