  1. Breastfeeding is natural, and I have seen breasts exposed in public, and no breastfeeding. Some fashions today are made to show it all anyway, so why should I jump down a mother's throat for doing what she needs to do. I would say use wisdom when you breastfeed, but don't go all out of the way if you baby is hungry.
  2. I have not read all the comments, but I do think that we should be able to talk about other WLS, because it can help someone make a critical decision.
  3. No, prostitution should not be legal.
  4. I had my children natural, although it was painful, I perferred it over C-section. C-section sounds scarier to me.
  5. She can't speak, but we heard her loud and clear when she said marriage is between a man and a woman.
  6. I started public speaking, and doing speeches at a young age, and I will be 40 in a year, and I am still nervous when I first stand up before people. After a minute or so, I get control over the nervousness. She is young, she will grasp it eventually.
  7. ????????????????
  8. I think my beliefs are more important than a competition. If she chose to do that, then kudos to her for standing up for what she believes in. Winning is not everything.
  9. How many times have you spoken before an audience? Speaking before people takes a lot of practice, it is not something you acquire overnight or from just one class. Nervousness is the number one killer of speeches, you have to learn to control it, and when you do, you will do pretty good.
  10. I think she did okay, she seemed to be very fustrated with all that had transpired. She needs rest, she was tired.
  11. No, not really...I lost the baby this morning...it's my first time miscarrying. I'm on bedrest for the rest of the day and night, but they made my husband go to work when I got back from the ER...It's been a rough morning. Oh, I am so sorry to hear that, I will be praying for you. Get plenty of rest and sunshine in the house.
  12. Hi, okay, my daughter's school sent letters out to the parents to see if it was okay for our 5th graders to watch the puberty video. I had heard from other parents last year that the video was too explicit for 5th graders. I think the school did right, because if my daughter is going to be taught about puberty, I would rather do it. I can tell her and explain it to her a little better than a video. I think it is up to the parents to decide what their children are ready for. Wanted to add that every child is an individual, and what works for one, does not always work for the other.
  13. I don't know what to think of this case anymore.
  14. I have not read all of the comments, but I like Obama, but I do question some of the methods.
  15. What is so bad about teaching both boys and girls about birth control options? or How to use condoms or dental damns...? Knowledge is power...right? How old are we talking about here, for boys and girls? I am in college right now studying Education, and the main focus in teaching children is DAP, deveopmental appropriate practices. Studies over many years have shown that we can teach some things too early. There is nothing wrong with teaching sex education to children who are of age to understand it or who are mature enought to handle it, but teaching too soon can harm children as well. I would say it is up to the parent to decide when they think their children are ready, and even then we should use caution.
  16. This still makes no sense. Either God knew he was going to grant this wish (thus not really granting the wish) or it is not true that God knows all before it happens. It can't be both ways. As I spoke with my professors in college, I will speak the same thing on here. My belief is my belief, I do not expect anyone who does not believe as I do to accept or make sense of what I am saying. It is what I believe, I live by the Word of God, if you don't, it is okay. When I read a story in the bible, it gives me hope and encouragement. It gives me some insight on how God can operate. That is what it does for me. So its okay, I don't need a clapping party behind me to say Amen. I am cool with my professors now, they understood.
  17. I do not believe that Miss Cali hates the group she was talking about, I believe she spoke what was in her heart, and what she knows to be right. I am just saying that there are some people who say they are for certain groups, but then they poke fun at them. Either we truly accept people or we don't. I agree with beth.
  18. If you don't want a truthful answer, don't ask. I have always been that way, and all those that know me respect me for that. Miss Cali, answered honestly. If you ask me, I would say the same thing; however, I do not condone the mistreatment of any group of people. I do not believe in calling people the other word, so group of people is my term. People say that they accept others, but then behind closed doors, they laugh and pick at them. If you accept people for who they are, then why do we poke fun of them? For instance, in the media, movies and etc. I would rather a person be real with me about how they feel than to be a hypocrite in saying I really agree with same sex couples/marriage. One thing I can say, I may not agree with same sex marriage, but I do respect the person. I do not beleive in making fun of certain groups of people, harassing, namecalling and etc.
  19. There is a story in the bible about a King, named Hezekiah, who did pray and God turned it around for him. He was going to die, but God added 15 years to his life after he prayed. I spoke on a message about this at church. If you want the scripture send me a private message. I have not read the comments, just trying to answer your question.
  20. Yes, I am very sure, and will continue to think positive. I can not think no other way.
  21. If we look for faults we will find them, I have a tendency to look for the good in everyone, even if they don't see the good in themselves. No one really knows the answer to fixing the economy. All the financial experts say, they do not know what can fix it, so all I can do is pray, but one thing for sure we are coming out of this.
  22. Had my fill yesterday, and was told that I was at 5ccs, I guess more evaporated. He put me back up to 6ccs. I feel okay and I am feeling good.
  23. Obama can not fix things overnight. He is doing his best, in an economy like this we must stay and think positivie. Obama is setting the example of thinking positive. No, I do not agree with everything he is doing, but at least he is doing something. He need to focus only on the economy right now, he is everywhere. One thing about the great depression that many are ovelooking is that they came out of it. America did not stay there, so we will come out of this! God is Good.
  24. jillreneee15: Fluid in a cylinder is under vacuum (the syringe plunger) will have a curve in the surface. Are they reading the edges or are they reading the bulge? I do not know how they are reading it, but she does leave the syringe poked inside when she reads it. TQUAD64 I lost .5cc from the surgery and I lost 1cc from a fill on January 14. The crazy thing is, I knew two weeks after the January 14 fill that something just was not right. So, I got an appointment right away on January 28 to find out the 1cc given on January 14 was gone. Weird. Very weird. That does sound weird, I was a little thrown when the nurse said it. It was a new one on me because I had never heard of evaporation until this week. Like someone said above maybe they are not looking at it right.
  25. I dunno... I just get the feeling she will leave them high and dry. My reason for this is because in one of her interviews, she said that she wanted all these children to make up for something she was lacking in her upbringing and seemed to single out "a certain someone." Out of all that I heard about her, this statement stood out to me about missing something in her upbringing. You do not have children for that reason. That statement there made me doubt her love a little bit,; I really hope she loves them. However, I still do not wish any ill will toward her, and her children. I do not wish ill will toward her because of the children, they need their mother. It is the goal of the system to keep famalies together. The system, like CPS, is good, but the system does not always work either, I know. She is claiming to love them, and there are people with less children who need to be locked up right now because the could care less about their children.
