I’ve heard that before.
I’ve used it at least for 39 years . . .
It has persistently communicated exactly what I wanted it to communicate.
However, you need feel no compulsion to use it.
I find it wonderfully effective.
BTW, I coin words right and left.
I enjoy language and I enjoy playing with language.
Some people get used to it. Some don’t.
If my comment does not apply to your household, don’t get upset.
The basic fact is that working moms don’t know what their kids are doing. It’s just a fact.
I agree. There is no “legal” obligation, according to the wimp, sissy-pants court, for someone wearing a badge to protect.
Well, if you’re going to be a peace officer (ancient term back when honor and duty meant something) you should, sorta, kinda fulfill your oath. If not, go weave baskets.
So I’m not about to play the “legal obligation” game. I’m sure you know that “legality” can be twisted into a pretzel by any good shyster lawyer in our goofy, non-sensical court sytem.
What else you got besides some liberal’s interpretation of “legal interpretation.”
BTW, I agree with your inference that we each, whether on land, sea or air, need to personally protect ourselves and our family.
I also agree with your pointed assertion that our criminal, fascist government doesn’t give a spit about us.
This is amazing: I agree with two of three of your points. Hell, we’re almost blood brothers in philosophy.
so she got her hair done.....people need to take charge and go into action.......what else could she do? commit suicide herself? she kept busy doing what needed to be done. my father died and my mother got her hair done. big deal.
ABSOLUTELY.
As I said at great length at the time.
I’m certainly not a perfect parent, but NONE of my kids are mass murderers. The worst thing they do is neglect to clean up their room.
Mrs. Klebold seriously had her parental head up her ass and a lot of other kids and parents had to suffer the consequences.
Mr. Klebold included.
His abiding hostility and his abiding obsession with death . . . afforded plenty invites to the demonic.
Maybe. Maybe not. The point is, we don’t know the situation and are anxious to blame someone. I didn’t raise any mass murderers either. Most people don’t.
But, I guess you could be right. She could have given him too much stuff and too little time. Or he could have been a Bad Seed.
I resent your dig at working moms. They’re home from work a couple of hours at most after high school kids get home. I raised two children, 16 years apart. The first one I was at home. The second one I worked. They are both equally neurotic I always say.
In case you have no sense of humor, that is a joke. They are both incredibly wonderful people.
imho . . . that’s true to a negligible point.
PLEASE research
REACTIVE ATTACHENT DISORDER.
If you are not determined and able to emotionally attach with healthy affection to your child the first 8 years of their lives . . . and carry that forward as they age . . .
THEN DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN.
HEALTHILY ATTACHED CHILDREN TURN OUT FINE WITH IMPERFECT PARENTS. EVERY TIME. NO EXCEPTIONS.
HAVE NEVER SEEN A SINGLE EXCEPTION IN 35+ YEARS OF COUNSELING AND TEACHING.
Are you being sarcastic?
If so, not funny.
If not then you are an idiot.
Not sure which.
My PhD is in Clinical Psychology.
I’m not being sarcastic.
I’m far from an idiot.
I can’t imagine where you’re coming from, besides being uninformed.
If my comments don’t apply to you why are you resentful?
You know very well that American children are lonely and neglected and uneducated. Where are their mothers? Working.
Of course, if the SWAT team had entered the building and accidentally killed an innocent student, you would have been the first to blame them.
That’s the problem with you keyboard cowboys. You have an alligator mouth and a hummingbird ass.
I’m far from an idiot.
You have never proven this in your posting here.
You have an alligator mouth and a hummingbird ass.
First I ever heard that.
Gotta remember that one. My students would love it.
The thing about being a stay at home mother, you can never regret staying at home. If you are a working mother, you may regret NOT staying at home. It’s up to the working mother to determine if it is a sacrifice she is willing to make.
