Amen! I lived in a lower middle class neighborhood that was in a perfect rectangle grid and we merrily tore through blocks and blocks, avoiding the Missionary Baptists and Jehovah's Witnesses. We'd get pillow cases filled. Then the fucking war on Halloween started and bitches like that ruined the one awesome…

My first child wouldn't latch and I was post-op Emergency C-section and they had me pumping or trying to feed every hour. I ended up with 36 hours no sleep turning into ppd. My OB stepped in and told me to give up and got me into a psychiatrist who specializes in partum disorders. Second child wouldn't latch and when…

Misogyny in OB-Gyn. How much patriarchal BS are we supposed to choke down?

That is exactly why I had to have c sections. 4'11" mom, 6'4" dad, no room in the inn. First one got to 7 cm before they changed to caesarean and the active labor with a butt wedged in my pelvis was undescribeable. I was just like the others who planned for the second. laughing, holding hands? Awesome.

you're an ass. I was abused by two mentally ill parents from the age of 8 when my mother had a total breakdown, but didn't stop reproducing and I was forced to raise my siblings and protect them from my mother's rages.

this is my life !

My first was harsh-HG, preterm labor, bed rest, emergency c-section, ppd, but my second was amazing! I was hardly sick, gained ten pounds, worked until I went into labor, painless labor and delivery.

That's ok. He and I weren't ever really going to be in love in real life, so I can still have a terrible crush on the heartbroken Logan who would get thrown in jail just to kick the ass of the man who hurt Veronica.

I have been chaperoning the local AP CS high school team on their semi-annual trips to the American Computer Science League tournaments for years, and I need to tell you, even in the best programs in multi-cultural magnet schools from Chicago, Washington DC, New York, there are VERY FEW WOMEN. Even in the best…

I want to see her is something really red to offset that gorgeous skin.

Someone get this woman an IV STAT. She looks ashy and drawn, quite malnourished.

Holy Shit- my friend and I went to see the Heat this summer and someone had their 5 year old in there and she ripped them a new asshole. I wouldn't have had the balls, but I was cheering her on. The manager said he couldn't stop the parent from bringing a baby to see the Heat, which, by comparison to the Wolf of Wall…

I know. It sucks either way. Right now I'm about to yell at my kids and tell them they better turn off the TV and bring me their homework. Since I got home I have done the dishes, made a healthy dinner, talked to my grandmother on the phone, given the dog her pills and written four emails for work. Our bedrooms look…

I used to think this way. Then my husband of 12 years started cheating on me with someone 10 years younger than him he worked with and left me, and now, I am a single mom with two jobs who lives in a messy house with two loving healthy kids who eat fish sticks and frozen pizza with a side of steamed broccoli for…

Tell them to fuck off. Anti-Semitism isn't a joke. 2,000 years of this and it doesn't get any funnier.

There is nothing worse than having two (possibly queeny Dads, I guess that is his concern) gay dads? How about a mother and father who are both mentally ill and abusive? I'd take two over-the-top queens like him for parents over getting mentally and physically abused by a hetero couple for my whole life. Shit, maybe…

Amazing with empathy like yours that you haven't found the right person. My insurance also pays for pediatric care, geriatric care and podiatrists. I don't personally use any of these specialties. I do use the BC option, because my first pregnancy almost killed me and I almost lost my son. So I am happily using an…

You mean Romney, right? Go ahead, look closely at the candidate. Think to yourself long and hard about how he made his millions, breaking apart American industries and companies, selling them off, piece by piece, outsourcing the jobs and call centers. Think about how he saddled hundreds of American companies with debt…

Thanks from all of us who know what a real anarchist is. :)

I think that they get the right to own it, and I think that they walk around with all of this baggage everyday, and they deserve the right to talk about it anyway they want. I'm sure that they don't always want to be all respectful and serious. I think we should let them dance their senior years away in a bubble of…
