Your Highness Emperor Albert Whisker @CaptAlbertWhisker (32694) • Calgary, Alberta 17 Apr 11

I grew up with parents so I never experienced this situation but i noticed this situation in some families. there are families where the parents are dead, or had abandoned their children, or just happened to be busy. In this kind...

VotreAmie It's a hard situation. It pushes these siblings to grow up fast and take so much responsibilities early in life when other people their age are just having fun. It is hard. I had a cousin of mine who lost her mom at a young age, she was only 20 years old and...

VotreAmie I think you have to get him in a good environment that he is used to so he can concentrate better on his homework. At that time, you need to avoid other distractions such as other kids around, television, or other toys. Also you need to be there with his to...

Heaven and Death

LilyoftheThorns @LilyoftheThorns (12918) • United States 23 Jan 11

So, I think it's safe to assume that most people in the world are sad when a family member or close friend dies. And many people are saddened by the death of a beloved pet. I know both of those are true for me (heck, I'm sad when...

VotreAmie I think nobody can proove 100% that there is heaven, it is all beliefs (either you believe or you don't). But myself I do believe otherwise what is the purpose of life and death ? I think most of us will reunite in heaven, but even believing in that it's still...

samurai3x @samurai3x (65) • Indonesia 1 Dec 10

VotreAmie No I never liked to smoke. I understand why people smoke, they try it first to do like their friends or guys on tv. Then it becomes addictive and it's hard to quit smoking. Well you quit for afew days and then when you are with your friends who smoke or when...

GemmaR @GemmaR (8517) 31 Aug 10

VotreAmie I don't know what I would do without my computer. I am so used to it. My computer is way more important to me than the tv, radio or any other entertainments. That's the word, I would feel lost. More so, it's not just the computer, it's mainly the connection to...

Do you believe that what goes around, comes around?

santosmarichris @santosmarichris (1849) • Philippines 14 Aug 10

In a more deeper meaning I think the saying is more like you better be good or else it'll come back at yah. Lol. More like don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you. I believe that if we do something good...

VotreAmie I do believe in that saying. But that said I don't believe that every misery that a person has comes from bad stuff they did before. But being mean to other people, God will catch up in a certain way with us. Besides that it is good to believe in it even if...

VotreAmie I think unfortunately when one or two members of a relationship is too possessive, in the long run it results in a failed relationship, I do think they will end up breaking up if she doesn't change. I don't think I could have managed a boyfriend who was very...

VotreAmie I miss the time I was at school with a lot of friends. Life used to be fun and we had a lot of good time. I am not saying that I can not have fun anymore but it was so easier back then, I could laugh at any joke, now it really needs to be super funny to make...

AjaySinghBaghel @AjaySinghBaghel (5506) • India 30 May 10

Furious at his son's poor school report, a father in France forced the boy to chew and swallow the sheets of paper and later admitted that he had "lost his temper" and had "over-reacted". The boy found it difficult to eat the...

VotreAmie What ? that's something, I'm sure it has been very frustrating for her. We have a dog at home but thank God, I never received a fine, I might have picked the wrong poo sometimes but how would I know ? I think it's unfair to fine her especially because she did...

Is it a good idea to put on a makeup on the way to work? Even in public?

nessosamu @nessosamu (193) • Japan 10 May 10

In Japan, you can see some women putting on a makeup on the train, on the bus, even at the wheel! Some people think it is rude and others think it is OK. In my opinion, it is OK. They just want to look beautiful but is too...

VotreAmie I'm okay with it too, putting make up outside why would that be rude? I would just be against it when they are driving because that is very dangerous for themselves and others, they can easily get distracted and get into an accident. But other than than, it is...

divorce as a trend?

maxen07 @maxen07 (882) • Philippines 6 May 10

I just don't get people who swore 'for better or for worse' and then would get a divorce because of a fight over the smallest of things. I understand if you want to leave a husband or a wife because they're having an affair or...

VotreAmie In Hawaii, when you go to somebody's house, you have to take off your shoes and leave them by the door (outside). If you don't do that it is considered not polite and they would not like that. My husband lived many years in Hawaii and now he is used to that...
