foxyfire33 @foxyfire33 (10005) • United States 29 Jul 07

calico79 What is wrong with parents today!?!? What would make a person think that they should hit a baby in the head with anything? People who are at this level of maturity obviously should never have children! Very sad...very sad indeed.

What the h*ll is wrong with some people?????

James72 @James72 (26790) • Australia 24 Jan 08

This story was released today. I cannot believe how disrespectful and close minded some people can be. Heath Ledger was an ACTOR for God's sake! To be honest I find this disgusting. So much for tolerance. Good old misguided...

http://www.wisn.com/news/13846111/detail.html There's the story, and what I find so surprising that they charges "may" be filed. Well, Duh.....there should be. If you are stupid enough to leave a loaded gun where children can...

calico79 That is pathetic. What is wrong with people? Why would you hide a gun....a loaded gun...in a house where young kids are. If he was going to own a gun, "legally" he should have had it locked up separate from the ammunition. This guy apparently even wasnt...

calico79 Dont worry! Your son is most likely normal. There may be something bothering him. Try spending some one on one time with him and see if he will talk to you about what is bothering him. Maybe he had a run in with the teacher and hasnt gotten over it. You should...

Would you ever help a gay couple have a baby?

cyberopjames @cyberopjames (483) • United States 6 Aug 07

I know that may gay couple out there are looking to have a baby. For reasons we all know, gay men can't. Not only due to the fact it is two guys but in most states, gay couples can not take in a child. Yes gay couple can foster a...

calico79 I believe that being gay is wrong in the eyes of God. Allowing them to have children teaches the children that its ok to be gay and that's just not right in my opinion. So, no I don't think that I would ever help a gay couple have a baby.

beauty pageants

brown_eyes2526 @brown_eyes2526 (45) • United States 25 Nov 06

Do you think it's wrong to put little girls in beauty pagents?

pageants

4 responses

calico79 I think that if the child wants to be in a pageant...then fine, let them. If the child is stressed and overexherted then it is not good for them. Many parents try to force their children into pageants and that is not good. It stresses them especially if they...

Breastfeeding a four year old?

lillake @lillake (1630) • United States 25 Feb 07

So what do you think of a four year old still breastfeeding? And why do you feel that way? I'm fine with it. The World health Organization says at the least 2 years and beyond as long as both mother and child are happy. No...

calico79 I'm sorry but I think that breastfeeding a 4 year old in this day and age is just rediculous! You are teaching the child to be too reliant on mama and what happens when he or she has to go to school? Is mama going to school with him and sit next to him so he...

calico79 It's a matter of getting kids off the TV and the video games and outside in the sun where they can play and burn energy. And let's face it...some parents just don't know how to tell their children "no". If they are eating more than an adult portion of...

Do you think basic manners should be taught in the schools or home?

Bee1955 @Bee1955 (3882) • United States 27 Feb 07

I overheard a lady in the library the other day ranting about how her child is ignorant of using manners because he is so disrespectful at home. Then she blamed the child's school for "not doing their job". STOP! I mean, COME ON!...

calico79 I agree. I think that parents should be teaching their children from the beginning about their manners and how to act in public and treat their elders and peers. Too many kids today are rude and have no manners. I don't think that schools should be responsible...

Breast feeding in Public

solmari @solmari (123) • United States 21 Feb 07

Please whisper a little prayer for Whitney....

She was one of the biggest female artists of her generation — with a string of ’80s and ’90s hit singles like I Wanna Dance With Somebody and more than 100million albums sold. Now she is a paranoid wreck hopelessly hooked on...

calico79 No, I do not think that is weird. If that was her wish and if it is yours then you should do it. Some people may not understand that. If that was what my mother wanted then I would make sure that it happened that way. It is showing respect for the dead.
