    (although, it would probably help her reading skills--is she the oldest PF baby? We might need to start a kids section soon!!)
    That IS a thing we could do, but are our regular sections appropriate for a seven year old? We still drop words and things she maybe should know so young...

      We might want to become very familiar with state and federal law on the subject of anyone under 13 and a web service in general before the idea of younger kids is answered with anything other than a resounding hell no. An error in how such a thing is set up will earn the full and undivided attention of people with badges and sidearms. There are legal regulations for something as straight-forward as requesting an e-mail address for account verification and activation in that age group.

Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

        I think I've been drunk for a week straight because I've got mad coping skills.

          Re: Confessions

          I have serious issues with people who get physical and slam things around when they're angry....Which in retrospect to what I grew up around and what I AM comfortable around seems weird. I grew up in a house with 27 guns in it. Number varied between 1-5 plus or minus, but still. But....my parents never fought, or if did they didn't scream it out at each other-of if they did-it was while I was at school. But never once do I remember either of my parents really screaming. Sure I got my ass busted when I fucked up bad-but there wasn't any yelling about it, or throwing things around when they got mad...

          Now I'm stuck in a house with my brother who came home pissed off at shit that happened at work by walking in and SLAMMING the door behind him to the point that the locking mechanism on the handle flew onto the front porch, told me "don't talk. Don't say a word to me", grabbed a beer, and walked outside, proceeded to take two swigs of it, then threw it at the tile and smashed the hell out of it. And THAT scared the hell out of me. He'd never hurt anyone. He didn't even do anything back to his ex who quite literally clawed his face out (i've seen the scars) and just told her to get out or he was calling the cops. He's sure as hell not about to put his hands on me, cause he's just not like that.

          But when people start throwing things in anger, it scares me. I don't know why-I don't understand it. I've had a gun pointed at my face, I've been attacked with a knife by some jackass, and I've had worse done to me-and none of that scared me. But gods forbid someone throw something.

                I just realized I spend more time worshipping a fictional god than I do even thinking about the purported "real" ones. Huh.

                    I confess that I took a few trash bags and 1/4 of a roll of toilet paper from work. Ordinarily I despise a thief, but I can at least justify the whole thing with survival and the toilet paper with the fact that it would have been thrown in the non-recycling garbage anyway.

                      Re: Confessions

                      I confess that I despise one of my daughter's little friends. Despise her. She's a liar, she's spoiled and greedy, and she's got an attitude of entitlement problem. She's basically a 6 year old diva with a princess complex.

                      But.

                      I'm friends with her mom. And Chickadee likes her (they are BFF's).

                      But crap. Even her voice grates on my nerves. And...she eats like a 17 year old boy--she seriously just polished off (single-handedly) the cookies I made for the kids Monday, of which they've eaten one or two a day, and there were enough to last til the weekend.


                      I feel so mean about it...

                        I feel you, Thal.

                        Miss A made friends in the new complex we moved into, which I am really thrilled about. This one girl, though? Won't get the hint to leave when we need her to go, and is CONSTANTLY asking for food! I have actually kicked her out of my pantry when she wasn't happy with me giving her some fruit as a snack. The morning of the first day my daughter was suspended from school last week I woke up to this kid standing over my bed asking why Miss A wasn't going to school.
