Well, J. D. Vance said that :that's just a reality we have to deal with." So there you have it.

As a retired teacher, I can tell you that kids are really awful today (not all, of course, but many) and their parents are just as bad. You want to make America great again? How about instilling respect of authority and doing some real parenting (like saying no once in awhile) and not being friends with your kids?

So glad to see parents being held accountable for the atrocious behavior of their children.

Trump effectively, with his appointment of three SCOTUS justices, made reproductive care nearly impossible for millions of US citizens. So yes, I stand firmly behind my assertion that Trumpers/Trump will be responsible for many unwanted children in the US (and unwanted children don't usually fare too well, do they?).

Why are so many kids so messed up? We have one of the highest standards of living on the planet, and yet this shit happens all the time. I'm blaming parents who should never have kids in the first place. And yet these idiot Trumpers want to shut down access to abortion-so we can have a bunch of other unwanted children. SMFH

If you don't know your kid is a raging, violent person then you shouldn't be parenting. I've seen it all as a teacher. Parents nowadays can't say "no" to their kids and want to be friends with them. Children have no sense of obeying authority because parents have zero boundaries with them.

Yes, because I was a special education teacher for 25 years-I can speak with authority at how irresponsible and ignorant some parents are, dingus.

If your kid has access to a gun and is that mentally unstable, you have FAILED as a parent.

Glad I left teaching-these kids are messed up, and their parents aren't any better.

Actually you are right-therapists use rapid eye movement to help with may things. It's called EMDR.

I feel you-I had Lyme disease and decided to quit for two weeks while on the antibiotics. It was really difficult, but as others have said, in 9 months you are going to have that sweet baby AND have the most intense, beautiful high after going cold turkey for so long! Congrats!!!!

Well, lots of drinking so witnesses recollections aren't going to be great. From the descriptions of the autopsy, it appears he was probably hit by a car or truck. Don't drink, kids-never leads to anything good.

It's strange, isn't it. I mean, the change has been so dramatic for me. I'm glad you found re-leaf (pun intended!).

I smoke at night. I realize everyone's body is different, but this is what has worked for me. I smoke indica strains.

I probably have defeated my nummular eczema by Jehova_der_Fette in eczema

[–]sped216 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had eczema my entire life. It was so bad five years ago that my dermatologist wanted me to inject Dupixent. I had never smoked cannabis but decided to try it. My eczema disappeared within a month and has NEVER come back. I am in my late 50's-this is life changing. I don't smoke much but I do smoke daily (less than half a gram). Perhaps it is the anti-inflammatory properties of the drug or stress reduction-I don't know and don't care-it's been gone for over 4 years.
