But you know, people who want to be evil to their children will be, one way or another. Stopping these people from doing what they did - right or wrong - won't necessarily stop any crazy people from hurting their kids. They don't need precedent. Creepy as it was, this seems like it was the right decision for this child and these parents, and that has to outweigh anything that might happen later with other people. imho

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Laura - the driving thing, and letting K-Bug take off on her own in a moving hunk of metal...GAH!!!! At least I have had 9 months so far where she can't drive anyone else. That changes in 3 months and I'm already freaking out!

Finally clicked all my open tabs. Oh my, Matilda is changing so quickly and becoming quite the charmer. So expressive! So lovely!

Yes Suzi, Brendon has driver's ed as a required course in school this term. They can get a permit at 15. Driving with MILLIONS of people is not like learning on country roads. Rethinks living in the big city. Still hugs big city tight.

Her first freeway drive with me was over the Bay Bridge and into the city to visit my father. She did great, but man, I was a wreak.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Hey, Laura? Which big city do you live in? I grew up in Hollywood, corner of 441 and State Road 7.

We live in the sticks of Delray Beach. E of 95. It's like you can't go anywhere without getting on I-95. Sigh. Where are you now, d?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Not saying this is happening here! But it sounds like it should be checked. Pain Bad.
Yeah, the ibuprofen did NOTHING for the cramps tonight, which has never EVER happened before with regular menstrual cramps. That plus a tender abdomen plus (new tonight) a low-grade fever means I'm calling the doctor first thing in the morning.

Sadly, still where it seems I can't go anywhere except via 95! I'm in Philly burbs, near the Valley Forge National Park.
