A Touchy subject..what would you do?

soccermom @soccermom (3198) • United States 21 Feb 07

My best friend just called and asked me what school my daughter goes to, I told her and she said "I thought it was her. There can't be too many (daughters name) out there." My best friend is a counselor at one of our local mental...

sarahbeth1977 Well, I know I'm late in answering this, but this little girl may think that EVERYONE picks on her because of her own perception and not necessarily because these girls are really picking on her. I'm not saying that she makes it up or that it's all in her...

Feeling Blue Today

creativedreamweaver @creativedreamweaver (7297) • United States 6 Feb 07

I am not trying to get sympathy or anything else, I just want to know if others out there go through something similar to what is going on with me today. Today is my Mother's birthday. She is gone though, as in passed away....

sarahbeth1977 I completely understand - my Father passed away two weeks ago, and I've been told that it will stay with me. I don't think there's anything wrong with the fact that you miss your mother and you're still grieving that she's gone - it doesn't sound like it's...

I finally earned $10.00 !!

rick615 @rick615 (413) • United States 30 Jan 07

Ok, as many of you know, I said I was here for the discussion and not the money. That is still true. Even so, it was kind of cool to open the page up this morning and see that I had finally earned $10.00. Not a lot of money,...

hatred

msqtech @msqtech (15073) • United States 24 Oct 06

Should we respond with hatred when we disagree with someones opinion which is stated in a question?

sarahbeth1977 Well, the obvious answer would be no - you should never respond that way. Unfortunately, some people don't have the ability to control their emotions when something hits too close to home. Other's just don't care because they're behind a computer screen and...

What if mylot added a word counter and paid by word count?

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160996) • United States 30 Jan 07

Do you think that would completely do away with one word responses, and short goofy discussions? Good idea, or bad?

sarahbeth1977 Shoot, I would love it if they did, as I tend to be long winded and wordy anyway *grin*. But I'm afraid that you'd get even more of the nonsense where they cut and paste things into it that don't even pertain to the discussion. However, if we could have that...

SOUPS! What kind do you prefer?

Bee1955 @Bee1955 (3882) • United States 30 Jan 07

sarahbeth1977 I think the best soup I've ever had and continue to have *grin* is the Russian "Borscht" - I finally learned how to make it from my Ukrainian friends and it's best after it's sat in the fridge for a day to marinate :D. It's a long process to make it, but it's...

Forgiveness...a moral obligation??

Ravenladyj @Ravenladyj (22902) • United States 28 Jan 07

Do you feel that its important to forgive? Are we morally obligated to forgive someone who's done wrong but has apologized etc etc? I personally think its not necessary....I've heard ppl say that we MUST forgive in order to move...

sarahbeth1977 Ack - that's a tough one...I would find it very hard to forgive - but then again, I'm morally bound because I'm a Christian - and the Lord expects me to forgive others in the way he has forgiven me. That doesn't mean I have to trust these people again or that...

sarahbeth1977 HECK YES!! I'm glad to see that they're doing something about it - I don't really care what others do or why they're here...but it does get annoying, and it's nice to see that someone is getting held accountable for breaking the rules.

Do you ever avoid discussions because they are too "deep"?

blueskies @blueskies (1186) • United States 28 Jan 07

Some people might call me shallow, but I have become this way out of self-preservation. In the past, I have eagerly delved into discussions revolving around compelling topics that would set my pulse racing and my thoughts into...

sarahbeth1977 Actually, I'm exactly the same way, and I don't think it's a negative thing, I think it's more of a personality thing. I get emotionally involved in things and when someone doesn't agree with me, I have a very hard time not getting offended because what I...

All White People Have At Least Some Racist In Them

Persia @Persia (151) • United States 28 Jan 07

Children - To have or not to have, that is the question.

dmillman @dmillman (2273) • United States 27 Jan 07

Do you really take advantage of 24-hour shopping?

thinkingoutloud @thinkingoutloud (6127) • Canada 27 Jan 07

Where I live, we don't have 24-hour shopping. The latest the stores stay open is 10PM (or possibly 11PM) and that is *only* for grocery stores. Department or retail stores are never open later than 9PM and, on weekends, they...
