(Not a family member) living or dead do you admire, and why?

i admire tom

It's got to be you, cause your jokes make me pee my Depends and they make the monkey shart his... :)

SheNerd because she is always uplifting to others, and has one of the best sense of humors I have ever encountered.........

Awwwwwwwwwww, thanks Snuggles. You are a true friend who always shares her fruit roll-ups (hint, hint)... :)

I will share them with you SheNerd............you just can't tell Big where I hid them at......so if I show you, you got to keep it secret

all the single moms because i know how hard it is to
1) earn a descent salary being a woman
2) date while trying to set a good example for your kids
etc

My lips are sealed with duct tape and bananas...

Gee thanks ladies

I agree with Nurjoyce... 'cept... I shouldn't admire myself... but let's throw single dads in there too. My kids' dads have disappeared off the face of the earth... so I admire a guy who will stick it through and be there for their kid,(s) regardless of how much of a bloodsucking, firebreathing b---h their ex was!

Yes I agree those single dads out there never seize to amaze me.

i agree about single dads also!
i just think it is harder for women in the work force.

my ex is wonderful as far as being there for the kids. he never goes against what i say as far as when it comes to the kids. if they call him and ask about something or for something..he saids what did your mom say? it is nice knowing you do not have to fight someone every step of the way. he does not pay right on his child support etc, but to me that is least important. i appreciate his support and staying a major part of their lives. and there is not anything he would not do for me either. i tell my kids- you can not live with someone for 14 years and not want the best for them even if it does not work between you.

My son is my biggest inspiration. He has had to go through so much but always makes me smile...he is one of the few people in this world that can make me have the biggest belly laugh!!!!

I admire those who open their hearts to someone they know is in need of some kinds words or just someone there.

I see everyone I don;t know as a friend until otherwise, and people who do the same, have alot of respect from me.

Yeah and single parents too! I hope to one day be a father, Though only time will tell.

I wish I had those types of relationship with my exes... but they refuse to have any contact with me or their kids... no child support, no visiting, no phone calls... not even a birthday card or a Christmas present.. they go on with life as if their kids don't exist.

So I do it on my own. I get mother's day & father's day gifts... I am around my kids 99% of the time (aside form work)... I rarely go out, and I just stay focused on the task at hand.

I know, as a woman, we can be difficult to deal with... I know I am if you make me angry enough... but it's no reason to disregard your kids. It hurts them more than it hurts me... and the worst is knowing, that as a mom, you wanna do everything to fix their pain, bandage the boobooss and make the world great for them... and knowing that having their dads is the one thing they truly want, and the only thing I can't provide...

it makes me feel as if I have failed them... even if it is beyond my control.

You haven't failed them, it seams like it, but you havent.

I have known people who have seen their dads walk out of their lives.

I don't understand why someone would leave their own children like that, personaly, If I married someone with children, I wouldent mistreat my step children. I'm protevtive of kids, maybe I should join CPS?

Easy question for me. It's my 22 year old son

question saids not a family member

sorry... (not a family member) I can't think of anybody.

that's okay
i would have said my kids
they are WONDERFUL
they take care of me now!!!
