Personally, this makes me sick

This lady (moron) now has 14 (count them - fourteen) children under the age of 7 (her other six children range from 2-7).
She is unemployed, which means she is now a drain on the California Welfare System, who already has enough of a problem with trying to support babies of illegal immigrants, This may not be an issue much longer, as CA is going broke. Quickly.
She has no husband. She will not reveal the father of these children. I'm sorry - I know that marriages do sometimes not work out. It happens, and sometimes, for various reasons, children have to be raised without their fathers. But to PURPOSELY bring 14 children into this world without a father for guidance and support, both emotionally and financially is just downright selfish and sick. How in the world is she going to care for these children? I've heard she is hoping for either a movie deal or maybe an A&E special. Lady, don't count your chickens before they're hatched. I personally hope she does not get any help from Pampers, Gerber or any other baby product makers.
I've also heard she has bled her parents almost dry.
One other thing - who is the idiotic doctor who implanted all eight eggs in a woman who already has 6 children? I have been thru the infertility bit. Unfortunately, due to the cost of IVF, which runs around $15,000-$20,000, we could not afford anything more than an intrauterine insemination, which did not take. He ought to be reported to the ethics board. Generally, reproductive endocrinologists do not like to implant any more than 3-4 eggs, wanting to avoid the risk of such pregnancies. I think the doctor just saw the $$$$ signs. He ought to be fined and lose his license, at least for a period of time. Any right-minded RE doc would ask how many children are already in the family. After finding out she already has six, more than likely, no more than 2 eggs would have been implanted. Who knows - maybe he was only seeking fame and fortune.
I only hope things turn out well for the children and she is a good mother to home and has a lot of emotional support from her parents, friends and family.
Just my 2 cents, for as little as it may be worth.

It really makes me sick
that psychiatrists these days are so quick to say "just cut ties and get on!"
Have you tried couples counseling like suggested above? Or talking? Maybe speaking with a pastor? Is your husband expecting this or is it going to be a big surprise?
Don't just give up on your marriage. Just because it's not the fairy tale every little girl dreams of doesn't mean that it can't work out and become amazing. But it takes work. Lots of it. There is no such thing as an easy marriage.
Take care, and please, don't just go off of what your psych says!
This post just makes me so sick nm

Makes me sick. They do have proof of abuse. PLUS

Fari is far but it makes a person sick though.
I have one living right behind me. He was a HS basketball coach and had an affair with one of the students. He bought the lot behind our house and built a huge 2-story Victorian 3000 sq ft and put it up for sale for 300K. I don't know who will pay that much for a house here though. He is living in it now. I have seen the pictures of the inside on the internet and believe me, he is living better than I am. My little 820 sq foot house right behind his looks like it may be the servant's quarters. LOL.
Guess it's true, it's not who you know, it's _____. Makes me sick.
I personally think the funeral is what makes you an emotional wreck.
Funerals compound the grief for me. The dark lighting, the sad music, the morbid displaying of a dead body in the casket! No way for me. I hope to God my parents don't want funerals.
Memorial service, no problem.
I think the traditional funeral service is antiquated and just makes things worse.
Sick of snow...sick of cold...sm
that lil ground rat just HAD to see his shadow, didn't he! aaarrrggghhh.
Fabric softener makes towels softer, yes, but it also makes them less absorbent. sm
Which is, after all, the function of a towel, absorbency. :-)
You are sick
You need a therapist. You told another poster that you have a relative coming to visit - so, this relative can't go to dinner with you and your friend?
It's extremely obvious to any thinking person that you don't have many friends. Your arrogance and self-absorption come through in your every word. It would be interesting to get your friend's point of view on this. I'd bet my first born that this is NOT the first time you've done this, despite what you said to the poster above.
Right back at you - glad I don't know you either. I run in higher class circles.
I am sick about it
Did you see on the news the senator (I believe), an elderly gentlaman who was so furious about this. He said that the hottest places in h____ are for those who abuse God's innocent creatures. Good for him. I am waiting for the day when all of these offenses against animals are considered a felony.
sick with the flu right now
ahhhhhhhrrrrrrrgggggggg
when i am sick,
i keep on working and just try to take care of myself. my husband was sick during his vacation and never stopped complaining about how tired he was, how terrible he felt, blah, blah, blah. it drove me nuts! he never offered any sympathy when i was ill AND working! (pardon my whining)
Am I sick or what?
I am typing a lady with appendicitis. Am I sick to think, "She's so lucky. She got out of cooking Thanksgiving dinner." 
How sick is that!!!
..
What a sick SOB....sm
Animal abuse REALLY fires me up. I am a true animal lover, especially dogs. I think they should break both of his front legs and he should not be given anything for pain either. They should let him sit there a couple days too before taking him to the hospital to have surgery to repair them. And while he is sitting there with two broke legs he should have to fend for himself. No tolerance at all when it comes to animal abuse. They wouldn't want me to be the judge in this case.
We were really sick here in TN...
for 2 weeks straight with a bad cold - horible cough, congestion, high fever, sore throat, body aches. We were tested for flu and strep, both of which were negative. Maybe could have been mono? Anyway, I don't think I've ever been that sick in my life.
I personally only used it twice, I think.
I HATED sitting in that line. I would rather just save the money myself and go buy it.
I don't know why they are closing it though???
personally,
i believe you might ought to go to the ER. They can help the immediate situation and/or refer you to the proper followup. You poor thing. I certainly sympathize. Some husbands just don't know how to be there when you need them most. There's surely also hotline numbers that could help, but i don't know them -- maybe in your phone book? You could also try a church counselor. But i really think the ER is your best bet, for comprehensive care. God bless you.
I did not mean that you personally were --sm
hiding your head in the sand, but that some people do and really are not aware of what is going on around them. The world is just not the place that it was intended to be or what it used to be 50 years ago, but this is all predestined, if you believe in what the Bible says. Nothing is going to change evil. It is here to stay and strengthen until the end. But I do believe that we have to be vigilent in order to protect ourselves from it.
as far as the media goes, well, I think they tend to over exaggerate other peoples misfortunes just to get ratings, and that is not going to change either, but as far as them giving this guy his 15 minutes of fame..he was already dead, so what does he care? too little too late. It did not make him feel any better now and hopefully he is already toasting his little toes, right where he should be. Just my opinion though and I do appreciate the fact that some people are tired of this stuff and care not to watch it on TV. You shouldn't have to.
Well I personally would not want that either
Was this your daughter's first wedding? And all you did was buy a dress and show up? Wow. My mom was there for all the planning, advice, etc., and she paid for it.
personally, I don't see how anyone has --sm
time to watch this stuff. I have to WORK for a living. I rarely even turn TV on much before eight at night, but for those of you with the time, glad you find them entertaining. Wish I could be in your shoes.
Not personally but my
My sister was visiting in Boston a couple years back and, on a lark, she and a friend went to see a psychic.
The woman was 100% on the spot. She recorded the session for my sister so she could bring it home and it was really interesting. Pegged our mother for being domineering and manipulative. Got the kids right, both my sisters kids and MY kids.. I was nowhere near there.
Told her a bunch of stuff about me too. Said I was the "fixer" and would be a loyal sister and friend for life.
Then she also mentioned our brother and said that he is much like our mother, though he refuses to believe it, and he puts on "airs" to try to make others around him feel like he is everything and they are nothing.
I would LOVE to go see this woman myself! hehe
I personally think
you can place the crystal and china any way you please - it's your home, your style. Decorate the way you like.
I personally think it went very well. sm
This is only the third time I have taught this class. I just fill in when needed. What made it so good was that there was so much discussion. Every person (10 of us)of course had pretty much the same idea about what heaven would be like as in no tears, no pain, etc., but they also had differing opinions about what we might see or discover. Most of us tend to think heaven will be a different experience for everyone. We won't all see the same things. Everyones heaven will be different. It was also very interesting sharing with everyone some of the posts from this site. No atheists in the class but they found some of the ideas of the ones here interesting so that lead to even more discussion. Several people told me after class what a good job I did. Honestly I didn't do much at all. It was just like on this board, I asked a question and it just snowballed from there. Actucally I was worried that I wouldn't have enough to fill up the entire class time but we almost ran out of time. Again thanks to everyone that responded.
I can't say that I personally see it...
in my day-to-day life (thank goodness!) but I do hear about it often from my husband. For example, 2 people he works with are currently having an extramarital affair...this will be the man's 2nd affair at this company. He got the other woman pregnant; they got caught; got fired; he got rehired! My parents and inlaws have been married forever also, as well as my sisters (but my brother is a different story...). I just know that cheating is all too common and it is a very, very painful experience for everyone involved. My DS just broke up with his GF of over 2 years because she cheated...broke my heart for him, but he's rebounding great...thankfully!
Not me personally
However, my best friend married a man 3 years younger than her oldest child. They are extremely happy and married 20+ years later. Some men in their 50s are like teens and some young 20-something men are extremely mature beyond their years.
I believe it is easier to date someone your own age (or approximately) and a better fit overall, but this would have to be an individual decision.

I personally believe that there was some
sort of tragic accident and she panicked and tried to cover it up.
not personally, but
I have a male friend who lost 30 pounds using it. He liked the process, said it was easy, he didn't have to think about anything, maybe a little pricey but he lost the weight & has managed to keep it off.
I personally don't think that....... sm
it is not completely forgivable. If it were, then Jesus' death on the cross would not have been adequate to cover all sin (save blasphemy of the Holy Spirit) and we would all be in a pickle. I'd be interested to know what the OP bases her statement on...chapter and verse, please.
Personally, I think
these things are more interesting reading the a lot of what ends up on this board.
I'm too tired to come up with a list right now, but when I do, I will post. : )
Personally, I don't even consider
smoking pot (or eating, vaporizing, whatever) an attempt to escape anything. I don't do it anymore, and I feel physically horrible most days because of it. When I smoke pot, not only do I physically feel much, much better, I am not demotivated in the least. Because I am feeling good, I am able to get much more done than I otherwise would be able to do.
The only reasons I avoid it are A) I have underage children and I do not want them confiscated; and B)I learned that my state now has a zero tolerance drugged driving law (which simply means that one does not need to be impaired to be found guilty, but is based on any detectable level of the drug or its metabolites in the blood or urine). Notable to me is that some other states that also have the zero tolerance drugged driving law do exclude marijuana from it. I believe North Carolina is one of them. I also find it outrageous that there are people who are attempting to subject citizens to roadside drug testing, in the form of a roadblock similar to seatbelt/insurance roadblocks. No probable cause required, just testing everybody. Many of these people are those who make money off of drug testing and have, in the past, successfully lobbied for workplace testing. A very scary violation of citizens' rights, if you ask me.
well, I do not mean it personally, but
after all this was a competition and Gilles or Melissa deserved the crystal ball, not Shawn, sorry!
So you would rather be sick than preggers ...
Ya, me too.
:op
Emergency sick day!
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS just arrived by UPS!
How am I going to work now???
(kidding of course)
People are sick!!
What is wrong with people? How could anyone do harm to their kids? Just last night a lady here in SC stomped on her 6 m/o baby and then choked her to death. She is an 18 y/o mother and also has a 4 y/o son, who is now in protective custody. These people need to find Jesus!!
you wouldn't think it was so sick if you had GID

People are going to get sick of me but... sm
The real tragedy is that some gays and lesbians will NEVER be able to have a fufilling life or relationship because they are too afraid to be themselves.
As I said earlier, I have many friends who are either gay or lesbian. I have also lost friends to suicide because they were too ashamed to come out or their families just simply could not accept who they really were.
A girl I worked with many years ago, whom I also considered a good friend, ended her life because her family would just never accept her for who she was.
Her family was Hispanic and very very traditional. This business was just not going to fly with them.
Gloria didn't see any other way and she took her own life. It was horrible.
I never ever want to even think I might be responsible for something like that because one of my children or friends was too afraid to be open and honest with me about their preferences.
Thank you - I appreciate it - yes, he's rarely sick (sm)
and if he gets even a cold he goes to the doctor and takes a day off from work and lays in bed all day. I wish I could have health that good!
I am so sick of hearing about
I have heard enough!
 Apparently she still has all of her female parts, except breasts...she gave birth vaginally...so it's NOT A MAN...IT'S A WOMAN. I certainly hope that losing one's breasts does not disqualify us from being a woman. This poor child is going to be so confused when she learns the circumstances of her birth. Not to mention that the other woman is breast feeding her...I feel for the innocent baby who is going to be the one to pay for her parents stupidity!
sick to my stomach
Hopefully when he dies, he will have to live among cats who kick him for an eternity.
I am so sick about the the economy
All those people on TV are talking about a 400.00 or more increse in their mortgages. They spent over 600.00 a month on extras. This was on Operah. I can't believe that these people don't have a clue.
Between the 400.00 and the 600.00 on extras...that is what I get in one month.
I have cut back as much as I thin is possible and it is still difficult to make ends meet. I even have went so far as to unplup everything that I am not using.
How do you cope?
I have always been a little sick of having get everyone a present
It's ridiculous. It's Jesus' birthday, not everyone elses. I would be very happy if I could get away with only buying for my own children for Christmas morning from "santa," and I wouldn't care if nobody got me anything or anybody else got anything for my kids.
It is just so stinking ridiculous to have to buy for my mom, my sister and her spouse, my sister-in-law and her spouse, my brother-inlaw and his spouse, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, two aunts and uncles, three nephews, three neices, and two cousins.
I am just so sick of the money that is spent for all this cr@p. And it is cr@p. Last year one of my daughters got a piano book from her aunt, and she doesn't even freakin take piano lessons. Might as well just flush your money down the toilet.
You could have been sick or dead
in your room for all they knew. wonder what they would have told investigators? The next time they make plans, don't go, tell em you got a ham operator to send out a morse code message, didn't they get it?
sick pets
I get my critters from the shelter also and have brought home sick animals before. I would just take him to vet tomorrow. PLEASE AVOID Banfield at PetSmart. Usually vets offices have a few morning hours on Saturday. Take him tomorrow.
My new puppy is sick!!!
Okay, everybody, my new puppy that I love so much already has parvo and is in the hospital. She went in yesterday morning. So far, so good. No vomiting and no diarrhea for 41 hours, but they are not wanting me to bring her home.
Can someone tell me if she is not vomiting and has no diarrhea and she is eating, what are they doing for her that I cannot do here at home? I would rather her be here so that I can watch her. If she got sick again, the vet's office is only 1/2 mile from my house - couldn't I run her back real quick (it is a 24-hour manned hospital)?
Anyway, everybody do what you do - say a prayer, send good vibes our way, whatever your choice is! Just wish us back to good health!
sick of that crap!!!
Kids aren't safe anywhere.....Just this weekend in sunny Atlanta we have an grandfather kill his 6yo grandson and wife over a watermelon and a guy with a shotgun go in his backyard and threaten to blow his brains out!!! There are tons more other stories about people getting shot and everything here, it is common.... My husband uses guns to hunt and that is what they should be used for.... THE SHOOTING NEEDS TO STOP!!!! I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE GETTING SHOT or THREATENING TO SHOOT PEOPLE!!!
that's kind of sick. For some men it is
much more fun when it is forbidden or has to be done in a hidden way. That's also the reason for having affairs behind the wife's back.
I personally like TracFone
I just bought a new one at Dollar General a few weeks ago after not having a cell for a few years. It was only $20 for this cute little Nokia with a built-in flashlight, and when I activated it online and registered with an email, I got 80 minutes free. I had a phone number in 10 minutes. You never lose your minutes but you do need to buy new minutes at least every 2 months to keep your phone number, which works out to $10/month. I've had TracFones on and off throughout the years and I've always had a good experience.
I personally don't consider this harassment
If he had actually made a comment about your breasts or some other part of your body, then yes, I would consider that sexual harassment. Since you stated he simply asked if you had found a piece of clothing that fit, I would not agree that this is considered sexual harassment. Honestly, it sounds like you're just being overly sensitive and taking his comment way out of line. I mean if he had made the same exact comment about a pair of shoes or something, would you have been offended?? I agree that it was none of his business, but not something he should be fired over.
Personally I'd have the surgery
I know it's a scary situation to be in and a big decision to make but I would do everything I could to take away the doubt that it might some day come back. Of course there are no guarantees but I'd put the odds in my favor.
