Yep, not really all that surprising I know. I love the idea of these jackass guys thinking "Oh, I'm going to go have an affair and Ashley Madison has made it sooo easy for me" and then they lose money and can't connect with anyone because half the profiles are fake and there are a lot more real men than women.

I hope you were. I would hope that most people are sensible enough to depend on the person behind the camera to help the kitten.

OMG! Don't get me started on the funeral pictures. Some crazed women on a scrapbook board (evidently it is a big Mormon crowd) became insanely angry when I said it creeped me out beyond belief.
It triggered me back to my childhood (I was about 8 or 9) when my Grandmother took pictures of my cousin who died at birth…

Are you also creeped out by people going to Disney for their HONEYMOONS! (No, they're not taking kids with them.)

Here's a fucking solution: dress your young girls in pants and shorts, so that they can actually play like children without the fear of underwear-flashing. It's not going to un-do all the other damage these parents will do to their daughters and future daughters-in-law, but when it comes to avoiding underpant mishaps…

Yep, same. Pregnancy at her age is dangerous, not just for the children (as they've already proven), but for the mother.

It's ok if she dies*. He'll just go out and get another baby factory. Newer model.

Which brings up: WHY is this woman still having children? I would never, ever ever wish the death of a child on anyone, but she said she would stop having babies "when God gave her a sign." One baby spent months in NICU, another passed away. I'm sorry, but at a certain point pregnancies become selfish, and the Duggars…

My daughters are the second generation of modest dressing in this family.

" As a parent I would have to remind them, let’s not stand upside down on your head in that chair"

No, it's not a bummer of a response, for fuck's sake. He's trying to make it right.

When I have kids (boys and/or girls) I totally plan on telling them they're beautiful. But that's only once I've also told them they are smart, funny and kind.

mom, i know you love strongly, but some things in life really need to be brushed off, some people will always be obtuse

So you're pretty pissed off that another 4 year old made fun of your 4 year old's shoes?

oh jesus.

Yeah, go after that child for being a child.

I plan on telling any daughters that I have exactly what my mother always told me growing up:

Good lord. Four year olds being teased about shoes is not bullying — or worthy of a blog post. It is, however, a fantastic opportunity for parents to start working with their kids on getting past the nonsense people say, developing self esteem independent of public acceptance, etc. It's growing up.

I think you are being a little harsh. The dad did acknowledge that his kid made a mistake, apologized to you and made her apologize. Maybe to you the Princess Leia comment was offensive, but maybe his daughter is into princesses so he thought that was the best way to get his kid to come around. This public shaming of…

I just don't get it. Most of these are "weird" names. Do you really wanna do that to your kid? I am pro-choice when it comes to names, honestly. But just because you CAN doesn't mean you SHOULD. When we were naming my two kids (2 years and 1 year ago, respectively), there were several names that we liked, but they…
