This has happened to me also. I wonder if they are sensor lights or something.

I LOVE THIS

I really love it when people talk about their children in any other way than they are “a perfect happy child all the time” because it always makes me laugh. And if my questions or opinions came off judgy or know-it-all I apologize. That was not my intention.

I wasn’t really missing the point, unfortunately I am ACUTELY aware of the point with a ten year old boy, and you have no idea HOW BADLY I WANT TO MOVE TO THAT SHACK IN THE WOODS YOU SPEAK OF. I was focusing on a separate point, but there was no need to distract from the original discussion.

Ok. Here’s mine. Quija Board story, unoriginal I know, but TRUE, and I was like 16.. I was with a group of girlfriends (the makeout kind, not just the friend kind)and some of us were upstairs and some of us were downstairs with the board. Two of us asked it a few random questions and then got to business on real…

Happy Birthday to you!

What world do you live in where Christianity doesn’t or hasn’t condoned killing a woman or a bunch of people?

So I guess that’s my point. Liking pink and preferring dresses aren’t intellectual decisions. Especially when she’s two. Two year olds know what they like and what they want more than anyone else. They are called the terrible twos for a reason. And you said yourself you know dresses are more comfortable. You didn’t…

We use beach towels only. I have a darth vader beach towel, my son has spidey and my husband has one with fish on it. Bath towels slide water around, beach towels soak it up. Plus, one for each of us because I have no linen closet for extras.

I had a bumper sticker for a long time that said “jesus, protect me from your follower.” Naturally, some “Christian" proved me right by ripping it off my car.

WORD

She's married to him but...

So I don’t want come off like I’m disagreeing or questioning your parenting, so this is just a question because I’m curious. But why do you think its not a conscious choice?

Well age appropriate is always a good thing. I’m old too, and I have an old white husband, who I like quite a bit. And honestly, I didn’t find men attractive till I was like 25. I never found boys attractive. I still don’t.

Organized religion was created to control people. I believe it was specifically created to control women. Following teachings of Jesus would be the opposite, however. Jesus, if you believe he existed, was one of us. But spirituality and faith IMO are way way different from organized religion. Organized religion is…

But if they didn’t have fundamentalism, they would find another excuse. But I don’t disagree with you.

Is ANYONE really into old white guys?

read the entire discussion. your question is answered within it

What if she just is a person who prefers pink and dresses? What we might tend toward as parents has zero relevance to what our children might actually just like for themselves.

She said "considering how dumb he sounds" Your sarcasm is misplaced.
