Poor Christina. :-(

Heart-breaking, truly.

I was pretty sure that was Obama's fault.

I see you're fond of quoting racists, yourself.

Damned if she does, damned if she doesn't. You all have the ugliest hard-on for this woman.

Most people’s outrage seems petty to others when it’s not something to do with basic human needs or rights. You had to have known what this was about when you came here. Why waste your time?

As a woman who lived through Farrah Fawcett's reign of hair, I do not think she would have been described as a flower-wearing, meadow-walking, Woodstock-like creature. She was fairly athletic and seemed to spend a lot of time in soft tracksuits and white tennis shoes. Also, you are beyond adorable with and without the…

And worse are the Caitlyns whose nicknames are Kate.

I have another option for you, Jane Marie: ignore everyone. I responded to your previous post about putting your child on the floor with my experience bringing my daughter home from China where thanks to a bitchy flight attendant, I ended up holding my child for nearly 24 hours at which time she became stuck to me (my…

Hey, now . . . our Brownies spent their cookie money on a day at the Science Museum. We're not all fun & games! :-)

Give her time. My 10-year-old daughter LOVES the Beastie Boys!

Agreed. There are so many Dr. Dickheads in the world - what's wrong with being Dr. YOLO?

Does your opinion change if the child is an infant (under a year old) and is swaddled in blankets? That is, never touching the floor (or top of the seat)? UGH. I never even thought of all the hideous things you just brought to mind!

This was how Little Penguino was supposed to fly home from China and it worked beautifully until the Tokyo-Minneapolis run, which was of course the longest part of the 24-hour day of travel. A mean stewardess put the smackdown on us - and it's really lovely for the child, who is lulled to sleep by the sound/feel of…

Mary Balogh??? She's super-smutty and has great stuff.

A Modest Proposal this is not.

I dunno. Black is beautiful in my book.

Right?!?!? I cannot imagine how difficult it must be to be a Muslim in America (or elsewhere) right now and I'm a Jew living in a place where my child is the only Jewish child in the entire school.

Just because you can do something does not mean you should.

Not sure why because this isn't the most special, nor the most interesting, thing she's done, but I'm officially over Beyoncé. (I'm sure she's terribly hurt.) It just kind of hit me what a materialistic, superficial person she seems to be. Someone here said - oh, maybe a few weeks ago - that she hasn't had a good song…
