In the corner of the morning in the past I would sit and blame the master first and last All the roads were straight and narrow And the prayers were small and yellow And the rumour spread that I was aging fast Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping By a tree And I looked and frowned and the monster was me Well, I said hello and I said hello And I asked why not? and I replied I don't know So we asked a simple black bird, who was happy as can be And he laughed insane and quipped kahlil gibran And I cried for all the others till the day was nearly through For I realized that god's a young man too Ho Oh I said so long and I waved bye-bye And I smashed my soul and traded my mind Got laid by a young bordello Who was vaguely half asleep For which my reputation swept back home in drag And the moral of this magic spell Negotiates my hide When God did take my logic for a rid (riding along) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oooooh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh He swallowed his pride and puckered his lips And showed me the leather belt round his hips My knees were shaking my cheeks aflame He said you'll never go down to the gods again (turn around, go back!)

In Article: Sarah Palin VP
So you're saying that Jamie Lynn Spears should not be criticized, nor should her parents? That at least is fair if what you're saying applies equally to her and Bristol Palin. The way I understand the laws, a child is the responsibility of their parents until they are 18. That means that they are not adults capable of adult decisions until that age, hence the practice of appointing a guardian for children who are not 18, the age of consent laws and the need for parental consent to marry before the age of 18. Only in very specific circumstances can a child be charged and sentenced for a crime as an adult before the age of 18. Child support applies to children until they are 18. All of those laws mean that a parent is responsible for what happens to a child before they are 18. After 18, all bets are off, but our laws were created to hold the parent or guardian accountable for what happens to their children until they are adults. I'll add the caveat that this is not always enforceable, but in theory it was the intention of our laws regarding the age at which a child becomes an adult and can be held accountable as an adult. Reply...
Yes, many will blame the parents.. fine..
My wonderful dad has 6 girls...
one pg at 15 ! Now, happily married good girl.
one never drank or smoked, basically good girl..
one has a child with livin boyfriend, for the last 10 yrs.
one meets men and sleeps with them off the internet.
one , good girl, honest , giving..
one, very decent, sweet....
so, is my dad to be blamed for the good and the bad? or just the bad? :) All are loved the same by dad and the rest of us... very close knit family..
This is a pretty typical extended family.... Who is to blame except each individual? you decide
funny also, a girl (or guy) may sleep around for years, but if no one KNOWS or if they do not get PREG.. we think of them as good teenagers... but if one gets pg, even after one night of sex, they are then rotten... thats the way the world thinks of people... Reply...
