Let’s add used condoms to that mix and I say fair game!

I say we all start sending these yahoos our soaked tampons and pads so they can cherish all the pre-babies that tragically were flushed from the womb due to no fertilization. I think they'd appreciate the chance to mourn. I know there are medical waste disposal measures that facilities must follow but I personally…

I have three sons and the oldest is 11 - I can also attest their childhood is like one big cage match.

I loved this stuff with ever fiber of my little girl being. I have fond memories of chomping the strawberry scented bubbles of my Tinkerbell bubblebath, drowning in that cologne and smearing waxy pink lipstick across my face.

It’ll give you feelings. Strong ones.

My American parents who raised us Catholic in the 90’s tithed and the recommended amount was 10%. Maybe you had a different experience but tithing is not only common but expected in all the Catholic Churches I ever went to as a child.

If you read the word flaunt repeatedly it’s just gibberish

I’m an atheist and don’t understand why so many people discount the idea of ghosts. I believe what are commonly referred to as ghosts to be residual energy, manifestations of very strong, often negative energy, that science hasn’t fully explained yet. I’m less superstitious and more skeptical that we know as much as…

It’s the younger end of average, but yeah. I feel for them! I started at 12 and I thought that was young!

They wouldn’t even consider it lol

Thus is being a woman. Yeah, I started talking to them about it because they MAY have had classmates who started that early, and how awful would it be for them to add to any ostracizing of that poor menstruating kid who got her period earlier than average. My parenting philosophy is pretty simple: I want my kids to be…

It worked for teaching my boys about menstruation. That talk began in 3rd grade - when many of their classmates may begin their periods and I wanted to instill empathy and understanding - and continues today. In short, my 5th grade sons may know more than many of their female classmates about menstruation and that…

Yeah this wasn't the weed. This was an abusive situation that resulted in homicide.

Same. Even with my gaggle of children (mom of 3 boys here), I would offer respite babysitting to anyone, even a stranger. I love babies and kids but won’t be having anymore. I’ve thought a lot about fostering once our littlest is in jr. high (still about 7 years off, but it’s on my mind).

Ditto. My 3 year old is home with my husband (stay-at-home-dad) and I just wish I could hug him for an hour. I’m gutted every time I read stories where a child dies, and yet I keep reading them. Sigh. It’s just so fucking tragic.

Texas, this is why we can't have nice things! (Native Houstonian)

My husband has dated many sizes, colors, shapes but married me - I was a size 16/18 on our wedding day, a size 16 when we met in high school. He never acted ashamed of me, flirted with me in front of my friends and his. Maybe he's just awesome but most guys I dated had pretty diverse ex-lists.

That sweet baby looked JUST like my 3 year old - down to the skin tone, haircut and tiny feet. I completely lost it when I saw that photo; just gutted. I squeezed my son so hard that night he may have asked me to stop...I have three sons and I can always relate when children are concerned.

After starting Mad Men again I lasted until mid-season 2 until I broke down and bought pack of American Spirits. I must admit, a post-dinner cigarette and Shiraz is lovely and relaxing out on my patio. Crazy? Maybe, but no one is smoking a pack a day around here.

I for one, am rooting for your relationship and wish you kids the best. EW (lol) is basic as fuck.
