It didn’t matter to them if you turned 18.
In my case, if my mom were in charge, I’d have a different job, different spouse and a different religion. In my husband’s case, there’s absolutely no way his parents would have let him marry me.

Those living near bodies of water get fishing tackle. Hundreds of trailers could be placed inside for dwellings.

Why do you think that is?I have now discarded that name and the one I currently use was the name of my first-ever "sockpuppet" account on the old Answerbag. So now you know (if you didn't already).
