I have my four year old son all the time. His mother does not come around or even call to telk to him. When I first got custody of him he was acting out and breaking things, had major attitude, would not listen, etc. I found out that most of it was because he wanted the attention. Just start doing more with your kids and the most important thing you need to remember, when doing things with young children you need to get down to their level. If they want to play something then get down on the floor and play, if they want to talk then kneel down and talk. It's very hard and frustrating at times to be a single parent but it is all worth it.

I was on a volunteer fire department for 15 years. Just because you have light and sirens does not give you rights to run stop lights, stop signs, or any other actions that may endager the public. There is a law in the state that I live that states that any and all emergency responders, firefighters, EMS, and police officers must use "due regard". Which means in plain terms do your job but do it safely. If there was a stop sign then yes the officer is at fault if he did not clear the intersection to make sure no traffic was approaching before proceeding.

Well let's see from my first serious relationship I pay $189.00 every two weeks plus medical insurance and cannot see my daughter. Her grandmother has custody of her a few states away from me and I am not allowed to see or talk to my daughter unless it is ok with the grandmother and well I don't even know where they live or have a phone number to make contact. On the other had my daughters mother pays nothing in support. Now I have custody of my son from my ex wife and since she gets state assistance I get no child support from her. Pretty fair, right?

I am a single dad with no help from the mother of my son. She is addicted to drugs and all and lives several states away. My son is now 4 years old and pretty much a hand full. As a single dad I can tell you that focusing on a single father is a pretty big deal. You never hear anything about single fathers unless something tragic happened to the mother.

I was on a volunteer fire department for 15 years. My department was one of the very few that does not charge for calls and every member donates their time and services. I have brought patients back to life and I have also injured myself to protect life and property. A donation is just that, an donation. I can't go and say that I don't like someone that I did CPR on so that they could live, and that I want my time back and that they can no longer go on living. 1-It's immoral 2-unethical 3-impractical 4-It was a donation of time and services. This doctor cannot and will not get any monetary or ruling in his favor by any moral and competent judge. It's like dropping your change in the donation jar and then when things don't go your way asking for it back. It's not goonna happen.

Speaking out of experience the best I can tell you is to concentrate about yourself and what you want in life. It is very important to communicate within your relationship. You can't keep giving your attention to your parents. When parents go through this type of issue they are just like a little child. The more attention that you give them the more they require. I know that it sounds selfish but as soon as you realize that you need to focus on you and your life the sooner everything else will fall into place.

"Hey Ya'll Watch This"

My question is why is it "The Big Three" that are failing? If the US can produce and have parts and vehicles made here for foriegn auto makers then why are they not failing also? Some of these foriegn companies have vehicles and parts that even come off the lines at the plants of your "Big Three". A bail out is not the answer at all. If you give them the money they will be asking for more within 2 years. And then when the money isn't there to give anymore, we as tax payers watched as billions of dollars got wasted. If the government wants to bail anyone out, they need to bail their own people out. What is there to say that a company cannot accept a bail out option and when they recieve the money pack up and go overseas where your money is worth more?

Been cheated on. about a month after we had gotten married. With my best friend. And then when I filed for divorce she tried to say that my son wasn't mine. Well DNA proived her wrong on that. Now she is in some psycho home and hasn't talked to me or our son but only three times over the phone in the past 2 years. Would never consider trying to work everything out. What has been done is done and she is the one paying for her actions.

To start there are more than 2 GM plants in the U.S. I have 2 plants within an hour in different directions of my house. And in my opinion if these auto makers would have lowered their prices then they would have made more money. The biggest reaon there are more americans buying foriegn vehicles is because of the price. The second reason is the long term savings. If a foriegn vehicle can get 25 mpg compared to an american made vehicle in the same class getting 18 mpg the choice is pretty clear on what is going to be purchased. In my opinion the auto industry is just like any other buisiness. If they are going to fail, a bailout is only a band-aid. If you or I had a company that was going under due to competition do you think that the government is going to bail us out? Yes I drive an amarican truck, and it is sad to see jobs being lost and the automakers going under. But, it's part of buisiness, and if you can't keep up with competition then you are going to lose.

Why should we need to bail out these big corporations when all they are going to do is eventually spend the money and be right back in the same place. If you think about what got these corps. into their current situation all a bail out is going to do is put a band aid on an open wound. It is inevetable that if they failed and ran out of money that they will eventually run out again. And it's not like the government is the ones bailing them out anyways. We are the people that pay the taxes to make up for the tax breaks these corporate giants recieve. And we are the ones that pay the taxes that provide for a bail-out. Instead of spending money on something that is going to fail anyways why not put the money back into the people, communities, and states. I live in an area that has fairly high taxes due to a corporation that recieves a huge tax break. But yet this company can donate millions of dollars per year but not pay taxes so the people of the community see a difference.

I stand in the middle here. I do agree that it should be a personal choice. However In my opinion there are only a few circumstances for cause. Such as rape, medical conditions, incest, etc. The way I look at it is that if you are willing to make the decision to have sex then you should be willing to pay for any outcome. There are many people that cannot have children that would be more than willing to adopt. However do not get me wrong. I would rather hear of an abortion rather than a baby found in a dumpster. When I was a firefighter we had the responsibility of taking care of any child that was brought to us and required to ask no questions. In this state a parent can drop off/leave a child with a firefighter and abandon that child with no questions asked and no reprocussion from laws. There are other alternatives that are better suited but ultimately it should be a personal choice.

Does that mean that my neighbor is racist? He built a replica of the General Lee. It has the flag on top of it. Oh wait I see just as many colored people over at his house as I do white people. I agree that there are too many people that still believe the flag is a sign for racism. But I also agree that it means whatever you want it to mean. I live less than 5 miles from a group that is part of the KKK. Not a single one of them that I know has a rebel flag being flown or hung on anything. I do not agree with racism, and yes it is out there and always will be. Some of the best people that I have ever met are of a different race, but what it all comes down to in the end is that we all bleed the same blood and breath the same air.

I make a difference by being a volunteer firefighter for 12 years and a medical responder for 7. While taking no pay and being on one of the very few departments left that does not charge for any services. And raising a little boy on my own.

I have a friend that has made some pretty bed decisions lately and is turning her back on everyone. She recently posted a comment on the internet about betrayel from her friend that was supposed to be her brides maid. What happened was two weeks before she was to get married in July her fiance told her over the phone to get out. He even went as far as letting another chick that he was friends with move in with the intention of creating a problem. Well she ended up telling lies to all of her friends and family and went behind everyones backs and got back together with this guy and got married by the JP. She even lied to her own mother about why she was taking a day off work. Well the brides maid feels that since she did what she did that my friend should pay her for the plane ticket that was bought and half the money that the brides maid spent on the dress she had to buy. I told my friend that she should look at all the people that she betrayed with her lies and running behind everyones back before she talks about someone else. I believe that the brides maid is right in asking to be paid back for the money she spent. Especially since the only reason she married this guy is because she is pregnant and he has health insurance. What do you think?
