Ah, the DeAnza college gang rape. This is the one in which three members of the women's soccer team helped rescue a girl that was being gang-raped by members of the DeAnza baseball team..

Same here. I frequently wear a cardigan over a sheath dress and it looks very pulled together. You can pry my cardigans from my cold dead hands!

Nope. "Those other people" are not held to the scrutiny of women who have children and those who do not.

I know you are but I like you anyway!

I was quite taken with the dancing of Gregory Hines and Baryshnikov as well!

Yes, you are correct. As a woman, I have experienced it often.

But that can happen with any new hire. A person can be hired, spend a short amount of time and then quit because they didn't like the job, didn't like their co-workers, got poached by a competitor, etc. Nobody ever questions those other people and their decisions though. :(

Not believe to be true. Having experienced it more times than I care to think about, it is Know to be true.

How does ANYBODY buy a brand new BMW for $6474 ?

J. Peterman company seems to keep a fair number in stock. Price is a bit high but the fabrics are gorgeous.

Hey now, it's hot and humid in Texas after all. I'm more concerned that her face didn't move at all while she was speaking. *shiver*

Then your initial post that started it all is invalid isn't it?

Oh I know it. He stopped replying to my posts which makes me think that he's figured it out as well.

"Her Generation is fucked." OK, what makes you say that? Are you referring to everybody in that generation, certain regions of the country or what?

You're statement makes no sense. In English please.

Wonderful. Debra Harrell and others in her situation though will not be working in fast-food or retail their entire lives. When Ms. Harrell gets another job, it is highly unlikely that her new employer will allow her to bring her daughter to work.

I get the feeling that logical arguments based in reality will be lost on this one. He's a troll and a pretty bad one at that.

You are admitting that your "solution" does nothing to help her in her current situation. It would appear to me that Ms. Harrell already has common sense: her child is fed, clothed, goes to school and is loved and cared for. Debra Harrell just does not have affordable child care options.

OK, and how would these court mandated, state paid for, parenting classes help her with affordable child care?

Hindsight is 20:20. That does not help the situation that Debra Harrell is in now.
