Mandated Reporting is federal and the laws for not reporting a crime are clearly drawn out. Its BS that they are not enforced in this case and in others that I have seen in schools.

It depends on the Doctor and a lot of other factors. Sadly I know from working in a clinic that a positive drug test may not result in a call to CPS or to anyone for that matter. Some doctors will try to treat it in house if they feel they can get the addiction under control. California also has a system of keeping…

There is an open secret here in North Idaho that Jeffs and his group had been transporting girls over the Canadian border into Idaho for years. They are married off to family members and a few years ago was a large number of inbred babies were born. This is also way the midwife laws here have gotten stricter due to…

My families farm in CA was build with undocumented workers from Mexico. I wonder if that's a problem too. My parents got married there during a grape harvest......I really would hate that the event that caused my birth was steeped in racism.

I see a Celebrity Rehab cast member in the making.

This kid is almost half my age....shes old enough to be my kid had I even known what naked dudes looked like back then. I was busy riding dirty bikes and conning college kids into buying me 40s. You have to have the idea that looking like that and acting like a baby hooker is ok. I refuse to believe that I live in a…

My head flops like that when I'm super shit wrecked wasted. Even though they're married can I still call CPS?

@love you dead: What you don't see is the man sdtanding to her left holding a gun to a puppys head.

This is normal! Kids this age are playing with gender roles and playing parts in dramatic play. I taught for five years in a latin community where "macho" is instilled in little boys early. But my dads were always great when the boys wanted to play mommy or other non macho roles. I now am the mom of one Tonka truck…

@sequined: There was a blog I found while researching Idahos lack of rape laws that said all women that are on wefare should be subject to sex with all tax paying males since they support her like a husband and biblically a woman must submit. I'm wondering when asshats like this will also make that jump.

@ChimneySwift: Boys like Monster drinks, Monster is gross, so in my line of thinking boys are gross. It seems to target a "lifestyle" also of extreme sports and other overly male things forgetting that at the end of the day they are just drinking caffiniated nasty sugar water.

@thespaceygirl: you don't have to be a slut to get it. I was in a commited five year relationship,

@specials: I was sent into surgery 45lbs lighter, half my hair gone, and told I would never have kids and if I did it would be a hard road. A blood clot would of been like Club Med.

@Biscotti_2_Hottie: again I'm not trying to excuse what happened only understand. The lack of communication in the staff and a need to go in and get things done seems to be the root of the problem. Also why did your husband not say anything? When we have a paitent that does not consent its not done its the job of the…

@Biscotti_2_Hottie: I do not want to minimalize your situation or be offensive but from working in OB I can tell you there was a reason to do the cervixical check. Depending on your contractions they were checking for cervixical size and dialation. This is done by touch and nessesary. I am sorry that this happened…

@AnnieGetYourFun: She cheapens every thing a bit, not just with her love.

@umami: In the south its a common practice to have Mid-Wives do your prenatal care and your delivery in the hospital. My Mid-Wife was from BC even! I had access to an epideral if I wanted and had a great birth plan and a doula.

@TheGuvnah:I think you have that backwards. Many women choose C-Sections for vairious reasons. I worked in a large practice in the south where Mid-Wives are the ones who deliver babies not doctors, its far more cost effective and also attention effective. We had Mid-Wives in the hospital and each had a CMNW and an…

@El_Gato: Hes one of those people that leaves a path of destruction in thier wake. Two wives, two babies, and two women that were lied to about his marital status, and various other side pieces. His current legal wife (who he was sleeping with while in the middle east while engaged to me and I was home raising a baby)…

@El_Gato: The affair part is very common knowlage although not very common. Most wives do not want their dirty laundry aired in court and on base. But for some its a bargining chip in the divorce. When I was pregnant my ex was in the air force aand still legally married (but sperated) my pregnancy had to be kept a…
