Sometimes we'd go into a building and look inside an empty classroom. Venture inside and walk around absorbing the environment. My son never questioned it. He was a very easy kid to be with. Few complaints. We'd read some of the bulletins on the boards posted around the campus informing students of upcoming events. We did that on the UCLA campus a couple times(he got his Ph.d there) and also at CSUN..Cal State Northridge which was very close to the apartment we lived in at the time. Well what is the point of that story you ask? My son is a college professor today. Very happy in his chosen career. Now would he be that if I had not done that? Who knows? Who can say? But what did it hurt to do that? So to what did you expose your children in hopes that some of it would sink in, rub off? Taught them to read before they started school? Took them to the ... less

The two states who haven't are Alabama and Mississippi.The United States Government has repeatedly REFUSED to recognize it's occurrence. Why? Well ya see it's due to their "strategic alliance with Turkey". Turkey insists it never happened. The United States values Turkey's sensitivities to the truth more than it does TRUTH and so of course they ignore. Some of Obama's aides have apologized for his lack of dealing with it. His refusal to utter the words ARMENIAN GENOCIDE. The slackers and lackers are all chickensh**! Appalling that a truth that is so heartbreakingly obvious is denied for political posturing! Good job American gubment. Keep it up. Democrat or Republican or Reptilian or Cockroach prez. It matters not. You are all worthless and liars when it comes to honoring a nation's history of pain and suffering. You look the other way. Germany acknowledged the H... less

Certainly spending your life defending dishonorable and evil and lies and corruption and betrayal can't be exhilarating.

Think that would be a slam-dunk no-brainer or would that cause a lot more heartbreak? Choices. Always good to have available or not?
If you wanted it to be exactly the same you'd never need to use the option. But if you didn't wouldn't it be handy "get out of jail free" card? Ace up your sleeve? Escape hatch?

If they are born that way are they really to blame for what they are? They had no choice in it. It's not like they opted in. So can you blame people for being what they are? T'is a puzzlement isn't it?

Does the gaslighter-in-chief have the power to FORCE Congress to fund his delusions? How does he go around Congress and get the money? Anyone?

If the basis of every word and deed were CONSTRUCTIVE not destructive?

So we exchange opinions that differ. No need to do it with knives or swords or guns (figuratively speaking). We leave the weapons of mass destruction at home or in the car and come empty handed bearing only views. Could it work?

I wonder if this is a general experience for women in their mid forties everywhere.
