Capvin, you're awful sweet. I have a teenager at home; he hates me. He is too smart for his own good, and doesn't much like rules. I hope we can all grow out of it.

Many of my days look like this...

It is much easier to be reasonable online. You rant and rave in the privacy of your own home, then write something that sounds sane. I definitely have my insane moments.

I had 2 boys and one girl in three years. All of them had collic. One day the Dr. walked into the exam room to three sick screaming babies. He told me that if they were hard to raise when they were babies they would be easy teens. I thought he was just trying to keep me from taking my own life. But he was RIGHT! I loved my teens. All are young adults now and I truley like my kids. Heres to hoping your son will love you again soon. A sons love is so great. My daughter is my best lunch buddy! I'm blessed.

Mom, I am going to investigate and see if BYC has a "sainted spirit" award and I plan on nominating you. Also, if there is such a thing as reincarnation and I happen to come back as some bratty, spoiled kid, I want you as my mother.

You must really hate Mom'sFolly if you wish to curse her like that!

Someone once said that God intentionally made the teenage years so the parents would not be too sad when they finally left.

When ever I or my siblings would pull something, mom would say " god made kids cute so you wouldn't kill them"

Capvin ... Scam ?? Serious ??? What if anything have i written in my comments that would make you think that ? I didnt want to make polical debate .?? Choices debate ?? I am woren down by vebal abuse & bullying by snide remarks ... I came here hoping to have someone truthfully tell me this or that charity does not . Period . My time is very very limited to computer use when i visit my daughter only . I am not a sit behind a computer attacking others with snide remarks all day .. Nor time for games . I workhard for every penny i have made . I have given to & for others all my life . Yes i never did my research on where monies were passed on . For someone like me who takes in others children becuz parents need a break - to help by donating foods & clothing & toys & money .. Saint - no !!! Just doing what i thought was right . Becuz i value the life of someone elses baby is that a scam ?? It is my right is it not ? Just as others who choose to go to planned parenthoods right for what ever reason they choose to do so . I never condemmed anyone for doing so . I just dont want moneys i donate to them becuz of abortions . Is that so wrong ? As for comment regarding bias info - Really ?? I only copied to show listings & what a fool i was for not knowing . Fool for not doing my homework that is sooo easy for anyone else with nothing to do but sit on computer . To you its all a game to show me as others have warned the rudeness of people on this site . I am so tired of people that for some reason feel its their personal duty in life to make others a joke , by showing how rude you can be .
To the person to helped by telling me how to find information . Thank you . I appreated your kindness . Please dont bother responding back on this to me becuz i am done .

Soap&eggs.. I'm so sorry that you feel that way..
But let me ASSURE you that Capvin is a VERY good man with a VERY good soul...
He probably thought it was a fake question because it was a VERY socially loaded question... and i'm SURE that you knew that...
Frankly,..when i read your question, i thought the SAME thing..
So calm down... be peaceful, and get to know people here before you jump on them..
Peace.. Wendy

Instead of wasting time researching through various charities and where the money goes, why don't you stop giving money to charities, and do some charity work yourself?

You could help a family in need, or visit people in hospitals. You can even just help with you family and their children, and activities at their schools. If you spend you time and money yourself, you will see exactly where that time and money are going.

I never give to charities anymore, as so many waste money and are not doing like they say. Some are really just short of money making schemes, with lots of paid staff and owners with new trucks and houses and churches.

Now I help out in my spare time as a school to help children speak English. I also work a few hours at weekends at an animal rescue. Several times a year my village has a festival for visiting the elderly and giving them blankets and food.

Nothwithstanding Soapand eggs protestations, I still believe that her (or his)posts were a political ad, at best, or mopre likely, just trolling. Assuming that her OP was legitimate, she was given some very reasonable responses by several of the most legitimate people on this forum. She then took that as an opportunity to list every fortune 500 company that had an employee that drove by a PP on their way to work. I have absolutley no problem with the political viewpoint posed in the OP, but here is a poster who feined suprise at the fact that her post may become part of the public domain. Please tell me who does not understand the term World Wide Web and is not aware that everything posted on it can be seen by millions of people. Here we have a person who is obviously able to use a computer to find out every little nuamce of her political position but wants to know if ObamaCare means everyone gets free insurance. You add all of that to the fact that when given legitimate answers she chooses to just ignore them and continues with more lists and you are forced to come to the conclusion that she is really not looking for real answers. Jak gives her a great response but she is now likely to come back and tell us that it is a possibllity that someone she may help out doing charity work may have a great niece who once knew someone who lived next to a PP. With every legitimate response she gets she chooses to play six degrees of seperation to find every person, corporation and charity as having some connection with PP. That would leave out Mother Teresa. I have great respect for people who are of the opinion that all life is sacred and are against PP. No problem. That is not what this OP is really about.
