You are a good mom.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

msbelle, you're a wonderful mom, and mac is lucky to have you. I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
msbelle, I was attempting suicide when I was twelve, and in and out of some shitty places.
What I remember now is how hard my parents fought to try and keep me alive. Mac is lucky to have you. You are a good mom. He will remember how hard you fought for him and feel blessed by it.

Dear Mr Peabody,
Barking at the possum in the next yard will not make it less dead. The other dogs had all the fun. Live with it.

Oh msbelle, I am joining in the chorus of you're a great mom and mac is lucky to have you. Anybody'd be lucky to have you in their corner.
And in my OY! news, I have a student who skipped class for five weeks and didn't turn in the last 3 assignments. Now he wants an incomplete, and I can't give it to him. Frankly don't want to either. So he keeps sending me long, plaintive emails. Dude, should have put those writing skills to work *during* the semester.
