I have mentioned here before how rude I feel it is for people to ask why I don't have children. Who knows, I could have something terribly wrong that prevents it. Why do people think it is any of their . . .

As you can imagine, teaching at a high school, I see a lot of students both male and female that are parents at a very young age. It is not my job to pass judgement on that choice or in some cases the . . .

We were all students at one time or another and I think even the most reluctant student had some part of the school day that they really liked. For me, I always looked forward to Latin class and English . . .

Adoption is something that I have always considered. I truly think that my husband and I have a lot to offer a child that has nobody else. I also feel like I could skip years 1 and 2 of a child's . . .

I never considered my parents as my friends. Maybe more so as an adult, but as a child, they were PARENTS, not FRIENDS. Does anyone else see this as a growing trend? How do you feel about it? I have some . . .

This is a sad topic and I know one where everyone has an opinion. I have some people in my life that are very near and dear to me that to this point have not been able to have children. I worry about them . . .

There is nothing worse than going into a public place like a store or doctors office and having kids out of control. It is partiicularly annoying when my mother-in-law or father is with me and they almost . . .

Everyone who knows me will confirm that I am a huge Michael Jackson fan. I loved his music, his dancing, and even SOME of his eccentric ways. I met Michael once in Hollywood totally by accident and he . . .
