You do mean the person playing character of Mary in this movie got pregnant as a teen?
Welcome to the 21st Century, m'dear.........*lol* - not many couples are getting married today (although the gay community sure is trying to get married).....but the numbers are WAY down for hetero couples.........
in any event, it's just a flick/movie - what do you care about the actors/actresses who are playing the characters?

She's no woman, she IS 16 y/o. She is playing part of Mary
and she got pregnant by her 19 y/o boyfriend.
My MIL named her twin daughters Mary and Mary.
No lie. And now you have a pretty good picture of the kind of mother-in-law stories I can tell. And I do have MIL stories!
I don't know, this post down below has me thinking. What are your thoughts, woman to woman. sm
If your spouse came to you and said he was having an affair, would you be more upset if it was with a male or female? For me, definitely a female! If it were male then I would think that it had absolutely nothing to do with me and everything to do with him. I would be devastated if he were with another woman. Another poster below said she would be more upset if he were found with a male. What about you?
Let me clarify------
I see where you are answering a post, sorry not much sleep last night and see where that statement made, knew I did not make. Anyway, will keep eyes peeled for this kind of spam as well as scammers.
I should clarify.........
I didn't mean if a kid doesn't come out with straight As, they are not smart. What I'm trying to say is by the time they graduate, they should have a firm grasp on reading and writing, and at least a level of math where they will not be taken advantage of as adults. No one expects every kid to be a rocket scientist....heck, I wouldn't want to be that. I took higher maths and sciences because I expected that from myself, but that by no means implies that friends of mine who didn't weren't considered smart. I'm talking about kids who are 16 years old and can't read 3rd grade level. Some of the problem is parents simply aren't involved. There isn't a book in the house, not a newspaper or even a magazine. If a child never EVER sees their parents reading, where is the implied expectation of their children.. Some parents can't read either. So, if the parents know they can't read, then it is their responsibility to talk to the teacher, let them know this, and look for tutoring classes or other avenues to help their children succeed. Don't expect the teachers to do your job in other words... The teachers hopefully will have the resources to help you and your child. A teacher would rather you let them know this than have notes sent home not responded to and no test papers ever signed and returned. My daughter has some parents that she knows cannot read or write past a 5th grade level, and she accepts that, but that is no excuse not to encourage your child and do everything in your power to help your child perform at a higher level.
If they can at least read high school level, can put together a coherent paragraph, and comprehend what they read, they will do better in their adult lives than so many that haven't gotten that far. We have classes where we volunteer to teach adults who cannot read, and I applaud those adults who come forward....I can't imagine the amount of courage and inner strength that must take. They then go away able to read to their children and grandchildren and the joy is all over their face.
Remember the Wendy's guy? Dave something or another? He couldn't read all the way through high school and then managed to get through college without reading, all because he could memorize everything and pass his exams. Unbelievable! But everyone doesn't have that ability...I certainly couldn't do that. Smart to me means being able to read, write, and comprehend at a level where they won't be taken advantage of as adults.
I should clarify... sm
I was talking mostly about the different quality levels of dog food types *overall* (because of the posts about whether Iams was a quality food or not). When I mentioned brand names (like in the 1st paragraph of what I wrote) I was talking about kibble - *dry* dog food only, not canned. None of the dry foods have been on the recall list as far as I know.
I probably should not have combined the 'overall quality' topic with the topic of the recall. Sorry for any confusion.
BTW, I know what you mean about being skeptical. I'm feeling that way myself, and I also hope it gets resolved soon.
Just to clarify.....
This was a post responding to someone who had made a comment to my original post. I make a heck of a lot more money than $300.00 every 2 weeks. I think this girl needs to find another company to work for, unless she's just doing it for some "mad money".
I think I need to clarify.
In case my post was confusing, my 21 y.o. is not afraid of demons or any of the sort and neither is my little one. Once, the little one asked me (when she wasn't home) what were the worms on her legs as he didn't know they were called varicose veins. I explained to him what they were, what they were called, and that he had to be very careful around his grandmother not to hit her on the legs by accident. He has never gone up to her and asked her about the "worms on her legs" as he knows they are called veins. I have raised my 2 sons to be respectful and caring of other people's feelings. My parents never hit us when growing up and yet we learned to respect, not only respect towards them, but respect to ourselves. I have never in my life disrespected my mother or father, and neither have my children. Not all children are the same, some can learn respect without having to be spanked, whooped or beaten.
Ok, let me clarify (if i can...)
Maybe "date" isn't the right word...how bout "hook up" with someone online...and NOT a dating service...maybe that's a better way of putting it...
Let me clarify
I have NEVER put a pet down myself. I have taken out loans to get proper care for a pet who was at an age where the doctor's said they wouldn't be with me much longer but the problem was able to be treated. I do not promote putting an animal down either.
I truely feel this dog is struggling and in pain. I am not the only one who feels this way after seeing him. My mother agrees in one breath but in the next says specifically that SHE is not ready for him to go. She has had extensive tests performed on him and the vet has told her that he will continue with the lumps and problems and they are not treatable except for the injections for pain which are getting expensive for her on a limited income. She has not had him biopsied for cancer because of the cost and the fact that she is not ready to accept that diagnosis. The doctor said that cancer is likely the case being that they are turning up so rapidly and continually growing. Please keep in mind that this was "my" dog and I love him dearly.
I hope this post doesn't come off as b1tchy because that is not how it is meant, I just thought a little more clarification was needed before I get an abundance of posts making me out to be insensitive or an animal killer.
Maybe I should clarify that I
if my husband did do something like that, I would hit the roof and tell him exactly why it was inappropriate and that him keeping it from me makes it look all the more suspicious.
I can also see my husband coming to me and saying, hey, maybe we should help her out and consulting me on it. Actually that is probably much more likely since we pool our money. Sometimes he is wise and sometimes he is not. Just like all of us really. My point was that men like to be the hero and it boosts their ego. I just wouldn't be so quick to assume the worst. He was probably just wanting to help her.
In no way do I mean to insinuate that the OP is neglectful of her spouse's emotional needs, but now might be the time to remind him that he is her hero.
I did clarify this - said it was probably ONE - sm
of the things that contributed to the divorce, though she left him and initiated the divorce, so probably not, who knows, who cares. She lost a great guy, provider and father of children. But he did not divorce her because she didn't like having sex and couldn't orgasm (not organism by the way). Most women cannot have an orgasm from the "act" itself and need a little help along the way. It is ignorant men who expect a woman to have an orgasm just from intercourse, so for the pleasing aspect I know differently.....
Just to clarify - the brother that my son
lives 30 miles East of my parents. He does not visit, call, he is better than the rest of the family. Read my recent post above in regards to being a future felon. Yes, life is too short now isn't it?
Please clarify...Got WHAT untangled?
Your boobs? aaarrrrrrrrggg!
Just to clarify, that's another "Chuck" (or someone doing ... sm
a bad job of posing as me, which, of course, NEVER happens here, LOL).
I just want to jump in here and perhaps clarify.
I think it's a common belief that the Catholic Church believes marriage outside the Church is sinful. Actually, the Church labels it as non-sacramental. The Catholic Church makes no ruling on the legality of marriages. In other words, if you've followed the laws where you live, and you have a marriage license, you're married civilly. Divorce, also, is a civil matter that is dealt with in the courts.
Catholic annulments, for instance, do not determine whether or not a couple was actually married, but whether or not the couple entered into a sacramental marriage.
A sacramental marriage must take place in a Catholic church, is witnessed by a priest or deacon, etc. Couples married outside of the Church can receive what is commonly called a "blessing", but it is actually their entering into the sacramental state of marriage according to the Church. If their married according to the law where they live, then they are civilly married, and the Church recognizes it as a legal marriage.
Some people consider it a lot of hoop-de-doo, I suppose. But it's part of the faith and tradition of the Catholic Church, and so it should be respected in the same way that people respect the Amish living apart from the modern world.
So, yes, if a couple is married outside of the Catholic Church, the church recognizes their marriage as legal. It doesn't recognize it as sacramental.
It's a topic that others explain better than I. So I apologize if I've actually made the issue more confusing.
To clarify, she didn't do in vitro.
She was using Clomid, I believe. She claims to have polycystic ovarian disease, and so ovulation is a problem for her. The sextuplets were conceived after it was determined that her ovaries were hyperstimulated, and the clinic would not do the insemination. She and her husband were advised to "skip the cycle", but went home and conceived the old-fashioned way anyway. Originally, there were 7 embryos, but one did not develop.
I don't know if Jon and Kate set about to conceive high order multiples, but they definitely went after money not long after the babies were born. What started out as an interesting program showing how two more or less average parents dealt with the demands of raising a family in an average home has morphed into a sad, sorry situation. The live in million dollar home now, and the show seems to be endless vacations and product placements. Those poor kids are on display like a bunch of zoo animals. What a shame. Jon and Kate need to shut down this production and take care of their family.
To Mary
I understand about liability and I am still responsible for him.....the only thing is....I want everybody to understand is that.....I DID NOT PUT HIM OUT....He is always welcome to come home, visit, etc...but he will not have access to MY HOUSE to come and go as he pleases......
I should clarify - that would be rubbing alcohol, not liquor! nm

Let me clarify...I don't sit around in my pj's all day. It makes me feels sluggish, but you ca
bet I will not be wearing what I would wear to an interview. Makes no sense.
Well Mary was only supposed to be 13-14 and . . .
not everybody believes it was an immaculate conception.
Mary Winkler
I agree - what a CROCK!!

After viewing the O Show, I feel like Mary W. was secretly abused just like she said, little things would give you the indication, such as feeling like she was going to get into trouble for things that got broken, or for making a mistake. She was very quiet and it seemed like she never wanted to rock the boat so to speak. I am 42 and I remember going through the same things with my scared mom and abusive alcoholic dad. It took my mom 14 years to leave my dad and that was 30 years ago, she had 4 kids and no HS education so I know it was scary for her, but she worked two jobs and I pitched in too. I sometimes thought I could have taken the gun he threatened us with and used it on him instead. I feel she needs a lot of therapy, and so will her children.
Mary Winkler
the comment about inlaws was interesting. I know some people in Church of Christ, it is very strict on divorce so apparently Mary W. felt trapped in her marriage. It is my understanding that if one gets divorced they have to stay single rest of their life or until the fomer spouse is dead. she was certainly familiar with this doctrine.
On the other hand, how would you feel if you saw your husband sort of smothering your baby because she was crying which is what babies do? It might make you mad enough to do something drastic about it. Best course of action would be to pack up and leave before you shot the man. It is hard to believe that she was in some sort of trance when she picked up the shotgun. But she probably felt trapped with no way out and the cornered rat will bite.....
The shoes and the other perversions if all of thihs is true would also make one very very angry.
I agree that she appeared to be sort of drugged, obviously a sick woman who did something that will haunt her and her family for the rest of her and their lives. She should be allowed visits with her children in a neutral spot, not in the inlaws home.
Mary and Byron are still together? that shocks me. nm

and Mary Winkler gets 270 days??? nm

Mary winkler on Oprah today
Would like to have a discussion on this and other's thoughts, especially after viewing the show or before either way. Very interested to see what she has to say and where are her parents? I would so not want my children with those freaky in-laws.

Ms. Mary Mack!! My kids still play that one!
And they run up to the ice cream truck still and there is a sponge bob ice cream with gum ball eyes or something. Davy Jones! I still have a crush on him, my sis-in-law is president of his fan club, and she got to meet him at Disney once (sounds like Brady Bunch's Marcia). LOL. You are right, things have gotten stressful. But then again, I remember my dad talking about WWI and the depression and having to deliver blocks of ice to people. Though, it seems to me even there were hard times then, people seemed to still be happier than we are today. Seems like things changed after 911, at least to me. I try to keep my kids sheltered (I know that is terrible), but my 7 year old is in love with girls, my 8 year old knows all the pirate words already and all 3 of my kids including the 10 year old could probably tell me things I did not even want to know until the third year of college. My goodness! I am sounding like gasp, My Mother! LOL.
I'm sure Mary Jo Kopechne's family is not as happy as you. nm

woman to woman talk sm
This has nothing to do with being a christian, it has more to do with group dynamics. I have to deal with it all the time with 6 women in an in-law situation. They are narrow-minded Bible-thumping bigots.I happen to be of another "denomination" and I do attend every function of theirs, weddings, funerals, all of it, receive their communion. I have had my parents die, lost my younger sister and many things happen where they could have reciprocated, yet they will not "step foot" in my church. So where is all their faith, they certainly are not practicing the do unto others. I can relate, it is a horrible way to live. Thank God, I had psychology courses and know about group dynamics, I am in the middle of a herd mentality. I could go on forever, they even have "interventions" when someone in their family wants to marry or date someone not from their denomination. They are awful. I know your pain! It's not your imagination, they hide behind their cohesive "numbers game," one speaks and all the others agree in unison. No one has a chance against this mob. It's tough to be your own person, lots of tears. And guys think it's all in our heads - NOT! Hang in, perhaps you'll have a Divine Intervention somehow.
Kangaroo. cat woman or wonder woman?

I love having a Mary Spirit in a Martha World
I am reading the second book it is called having a Mary Spirit, love it!!!!
Mary Winkler leaves near me. It is all over the news today - SM
Her in-laws are trying to get a junction to stop the local station from airing the episode of Oprah today.
Mary, I offer my prayers for the safety of your sons. SM
I thought brothers could not be in battle zones at the same time. Did they choose to?
Bloody Mary for breakfast, extra vodka! lol

$60 playing Bingo, would have been $120 - sm
but just as they were about to give me the money, someone shouted out Bingo; guess he was a bit slow to realize he had won, so the pot was split, disappointing but still fun. I also won a green malachite faced gold watch (not real gold, plate if that) in a contest; it had a first prize of a Corvette or $50K, and 100 2nd prizes of the watches (always wished my name had been picked first). I know there are 1 or 2 other things, but totally drawing a blank, nothing big whatever they were.
Had shingles before, do not think that is playing
a role and gosh I would hope it would be costochondritis. Funny to say that but when I pulled up some other things, much worse than I would care to hear was wrong. I have physical exam scheduled for a day next month but think I will just walk in either this Sunday or Monday and just wait to see someone. The pain is really unbearable. I took Tramadol for it but dulls a little but not all.
Was out with 3 yo grandson at 6:30 a.m. playing!!
Not really a snow lover myself anymore, but it sure was fun to watch his excitement. He even got old ski poles out of the barn and was skiing the imaginary slopes, swooosh! Of course mamaw had to be right there along with him!
Playing the game
1. I'm a HUGE flirt!
2. Can manage LOTS of money at my other job but can't seem to manage 3.00 in my own checking account {sigh}.
3. Would love to hop in an RV and travel the country!
He's playing you like a violin.
Drop him off at a shelter. End of story.
Doctors here are down playing it.
They are telling us it is no worse than any other flu you get. They also say the worst is over. However, my daughters Girl Scout trip they were supposed to take tomorrow still got cancelled as with a lot of UIL events.
I thought Nigel was great but wasn't too impressed with Mary...
I am sure she was good back in the day but she seemed a bit slow and rusty to me...would have loved to see Mia dance..
Baby? That pic shows a kid playing with a See & Say!
If that kid is old enough to pull on the handle, then that kid is also old enough to drink from a sippy cup! Come on, people! Wake up! This lady could have easily bottled her breast milk instead of whipping it out (discreetly or not) on a plane full of people. Nothing like trapping a bunch of people on a plane and putting them in a very uncomfortable situation!
I breastfed my daughter until she started walking. After that, she went on a bottle, then to a sippy cup, then to a regular cup. She's 18 years old now and quite well adjusted.
And, we are not living in a third world country where kids up to 5 yrs old run up to their mother and just start suckin on a tit! This is America, where it's more cultured, where there are other options.
I remember a time when I was a kid at Disneyland and I saw a lady with her baby sitting on a bench. I wanted to see the baby and walked past just in time to see the woman whip out her tit for all to see. My mother was so enraged that she reported her and stood right next to the woman until security arrived and they told the lady that there were baby stations all around Disneyland where she could go to have privacy with her baby during feeding time. BTW, there are still baby stations with seating for mothers to breastfeed their babies.
No...worked it off playing my son's dang (sm)
My son just got the Nintendo Wii. If you're not familiar with this contraption, you actually go through the motions.
I played tennis and bowling all day long TG and I am SO sore!!! My right arm feels like it's about to fall off. Every time I reach for my mouse, I wince...
Yeah, been doing my fair share of grazing... will work it off at the mall lol ;-)
You are playing with fire and someone is going to get burned. sm
Infedility by any means is not moral and it is not right. Your husband has every right to be upset, as would I if my husband were doing the same. I'm not condemning you, I'm saying what I would tell anyone. In fact, my best friend brought a guy to the movies with us the other night and she is MARRIED. Needless to say, I was very upset and called her after the movie and told her I didn't think that was very cool.
I bet you 99% of the responders to this post will agree that what you are doing is not right.
It's just exciting and fun right now and not at all worth it in the end. If your husband finds out he may never respect or trust you ever again.
Also, what helps me if I ever, ever get an inkling to stray (which has happened once in our 10-year marriage), is to think about ALL my husband has been through with me and put up and has done for me (which is A LOT), and eventually the "other guy" just doesn't seem that appealing anymore. It actually made me cry when I began thinking of all my husband has done for me and my child (I was married once before we met).
Anyways, you have to stop it. Leading a double life weighs very heavy on your conscience. It's no fun. Not good for your health.
Oh, one more thing! Why is he single, if he is? He's probably a jerk. He ditched you once, right? If he's willing to hang on to you even though he knows you are married? He's not worth it, girl.
I was 7 or 8, playing Barbies with my friend.
I can't remember if we heard it on the radio, or if our parents were talking about it. I didn't have a clue at the time who Elvis was, but I knew that it was important.
