bbjwlsn Hi xcammie, how are you? The reason we wanted a healthy, white infant is because this was in the 1980s, and I felt that people were not as tolerant of mixed-race families as they may be today. I could love a child, no matter what their heritage, but I also can...

what am I doing wrong?

Taura18 @Taura18 (30) • United States 13 Sep 08

I am 21 almost 22. I was married and divorced by the time I was 19. And contemplating getting married again. But I have so many fears because my last marriage failed miserably. I want to have the perfect or at least semi-perfect...

bbjwlsn Oh, yeah, and you aren't doing anything wrong. Now is the time to stop and think about it, BEFORE you do something you might regret.

What's Your Problem Spelling Word?

worldwise1 @worldwise1 (14885) • United States 11 Sep 08

I consider myself a very good speller, better than average, in fact, so I wonder why it is that there is this one word that plagues me because I can never get it right. I always hate it when I need to use the word(like in a...

bbjwlsn Hi Kat, It is correctly spelled vacuum. Sorry. I do wish I had some magic way to tell people to remember how to spell words. I have always been lucky in that I am an excellent speller. That being said, there are one or two words that I still have trouble...

He hurts my feelings

pinkharleygirl @pinkharleygirl (10) • United States 11 Sep 08

I painted his bedroom wall the other day and was very proud. He got me the paint and knew I was going to do it. When he came home he inspected it and was unhappy with the job I had done. He said there was a line and he could not...

bbjwlsn I agree 100% with you, medney. Of course, only hearing about one incident out of the relationship, it's really hard to say that he is being emotionally abusive. Although, she does mention, I believe, that he is only a perfectionist with her and not others....

Has Anyone Else Here Heard McCain Was a POW???

anniepa @anniepa (27955) • United States 26 Aug 08

I'm not sure if it's just a rumor that's been kept rather quiet or not but I've been hearing some whispers that GOP Presidential nominee John McCain was a POW decades ago. I've also heard that McCain has stated he didn't want to...

bbjwlsn Hi irisheyes, how's it going? I guess you're right, he is the first pres. candidate with a prison record. LOL I don't see why his prisoner of war background should have any bearing whatsoever in the campaign. How does being a POW constitute a good war...

bbjwlsn Hi Ldy, how are you? Did you not see in posts above that anniepa was being facetious? She explained that. Actually, I believe her word was satirical, I'm not sure. Yeah, I don't think McCain is the perfect candidate either. Neither is Obama. BUT, and I...

Euthanasia - What's your opinion about it?

falassion @falassion (419) • Brazil 26 Aug 08

Euthanasia, which comes from the greek and means "good death", is the practice of ending a life of somebody that is suffering or so. Nowadays, Belgium, Luxemburg, Thailand, Netherlands, Switzerland, and the USA's Oregon state...

bbjwlsn I don't think that anyone who recommends or is "for" euthanasia would feel that a handicapped person should be "put out of his misery" or that the elderly should be given a shove over to the other side. Yes, it is God's place to decide when your time has come....

Alone and Disowned...

twoey68 @twoey68 (13627) • United States 26 Aug 08

I think for everyone there are times in our lives when we don’t do what our families want us to do or we have major disagreements. Most of the time they blow over and you move on. There was a time when it wasn’t uncommon to disown...

bbjwlsn Wow, writersedge, your story is really heavy! I don't think that you have actually disowned your brother; you have put a good distance between you and him, which from what you have said sounds like a wise thing. When he took your car across the border and...

i just don't understand....

Richard @rbailey83 (1428) • Canada 22 Aug 08

i don't understand why there are only so very few people who are willing to take the time to do something for a child/children who may never see another year of their life, who may never experience even half of what we have...

bbjwlsn rbailey - This message is to you. I can see perfectly why you are a 10 and Para is a 7 or whatever they are. This person is way out of line to talk to you that way! I, for one, would love to go to your website. I am so touched by sick children. I will do...

Why should my child have to fight? What am I teaching her?

dloveli @dloveli (4366) • United States 22 Aug 08

I am a mother first and foremost. My children are my life. I try to teach them to be honest, respectful, and treat others as you would like to be treated. I think that I have been lucky as far as my daughters are concerned. When...

bbjwlsn Hey dl, how's it going? How can you possibly wonder where these children learn this stuff when you talked to the mother of one of the other girls, and received the answers that you did? The children learn what they watch their parents doing, and then, nine...

Spaghetti, It's What's For Breakfast!!

bbjwlsn @bbjwlsn (263) • United States 21 Aug 08

Yep, I'm having my breakfast right now, and it is spaghetti. I have been up for about 3-1/2 hours, so it's not like I jumped right out of bed and headed for the spaghetti. LOL Who else out there eats non-traditional breakfast...

bbjwlsn Hi lazeebee, how are you doing? Oh, yeah, I have quite often had chips or cookies for breakfast. But, I have to have a cold soda or juice with it. I can't really eat when I drink my coffee, unless it's a donut or something like that. When I have coffee,...
