    Follow Up: Best. Mom. Ever. (Toya Graham)

    There are grey areas for sure, but at the same time, EVERYone else is allowed to defend themselves and/or are protected by law. Why is it the smallest and most helpless of us all, are not allowed this simple right. To not be hit. We can ALL learn without it.. nobody has a good enough argument...

    Follow Up: Best. Mom. Ever. (Toya Graham)

    Really tired of people saying the opposite of coddling children is hitting them. That without hitting them, they turn into entitled, unruly brats. BOTH are wrong. The argument is seriously, seriously, flawed. I'm glad she got him out of there and I don't for a second think this will damage...

    Dangers Of Craigslist Meetups and Sales

    It is scary.. that's why I would never go that route for something very expensive. For regular every day things, I would make sure it's a safe situation, like meeting in a busy area or something, but I'm not all that worried about it. I've heard of one incident here and it was someone they...

    How frustrated do you get?

    It depends on the crime. If it's not hurting anyone, I don't see it as a crime. Texting and driving, on the other hand, has the potential to hurt many.. and take lives, so I would take a picture and report because this act disgusts me immensely.

    What Do You Think?

    It starts in the home. Most kids bully because they feel helpless in other areas of their lives.. they're being bullied themselves, or at least feel they are, in the home or elsewhere.. given no control of their lives and so they go to school and take back their control in harmful ways. I do...

    What To Do In A Road Rage Situation

    Oh gawd.. fearing a gun being pulled??? I couldn't imagine living like that. We have some pretty angry drivers where we moved to, but no guns being pulled lol.. just a bunch of yelling and honking. At worst, I can see a confrontation.. maybe a fight.. but I haven't witnessed that yet either...

    Mom asks police to arrest her 10-year-old to scare him straight

    Kids don't disrespect their parents out of nowhere.. it's learned behaviour. It starts with the parenting.. the overall relationship with the child. I am not surprised at all by a lot of the behaviour I see once I have a glimpse at the relationship and how the parent guides (or not, which is...

    Mother Sets Baby On Fire

    That poor baby :( When the mentally ill are ignored, things like this happen. She was probably collecting welfare and sitting home all day???? wtf

    Woman Arrested For Throwing Hot Chocolate

    Nobody was there, we aren't judge and jury. I agree with Sweetheart.. there is a LOT missing from this and if you haven't been in an abusive relationship before, you'll know it's a matter of he said/she said and there is no black and white about it when you're the one trying to decide what...

    Man Fatally Shot By Police After Mother's Stabbing

    Not saying it was justified, but why is she so innocent just because she's dead? I honestly believe parenting makes a man (or woman) and most parents are dictators (in my opinion). He may very well be crazy, but nobody knows his story and often times, parenting leads to SOOOOOOO many issues...

    Getting fed up?

    In my opinion.. "If you've told a child a thousand times and he still does not understand, then it is not the child who is the slow learner" Not that you're a slow learner.. it's a quote, I can't change it haha. But I do agree with this and I think it applies to everyone, not just children...

    Baltimore Gangs Team Up To Take Out Police Officers

    No, they're acting like this is yet another life taken by police. It's going too far and people are angry and overwhelmed and scared.. as they should be. Cops are above the law and it has to end. They are abusing their power and hurting the very people they are to protect and serve. Even if...

    Another drug to worry about!

    There will always be people that want to escape their reality or experience a different one. It's exciting. I get the appeal and if people are only told the good side of it, they'll be more apt to try it. Look at LSD.. some of the same effects, both "positive" and negative and people will...

    Why are police allowed to take their weapons home?

    I agree.. they're still cops, even off duty and are obligated to uphold the law at all times. Just like with doctors and even 911 dispatchers. If they see an accident or say, someone having a heart attack, they are required to help.. they can't just stand by. They were trained and so become...

    Favorite music albums?

    My forever go-to will always be any old school Pearl Jam or STP.

    Do You Legally Have to Roll Down a Window More than 2 Inches?

    I've never actually heard of this, but I'd have no problem with it since I don't drink and drive. Not sure what the point of not cooperating would be.

    Man injured in fight punches nurse at Lehigh Valley Hospital

    He could have been blacked out too.. I've seen worse from people I'd expect it from least. Either way, he should at least be charged with assault.. more than that, I don't know. He's an A**hole, not a terrorist. Maybe he'll learn not to drink so much and tick off the wrong people.

    Freddie Gray Death Ruled Homicide

    I'm actually surprised. Lets see how this goes.

    A thicker plot?

    Absolutely! He's still a human being and making mistakes in the past, no matter how many, doesn't make his death (or murder) something to shrug our shoulders at. Just awful.
