Under the SCHIP deal they’re trying to pass that is just for children(even the ones that don’t need it because the parents have enough money or are covered by the parents’ insurance) they also want to cover women with children… well children still in their stomach which the last time I checked didn’t count as a child to the pro-choice left… Its just a parasitic fetus to them.

So one of the following has happened:

1) Harry Potter waved his magic wand and they all believe a fertilized egg is a child and abortion will be abolished

2) They want it for pregnant women who want an abortion for free(well not really-working people pay for it)

3) Because government dependent people no longer get extra money on welfare for extra children the Dems think this will make up for their ‘give free stuff and get votes’ and they will start popping out more kids again because they know their health is paid for by the remaining responsible citizens, thus continuing their "neighbor’s keeper" policy.
By the way, if you do the math for a billion increase in taxes to people who actually pay taxes(people of age to work) in the US it’s an extra 0 every year out of the working(not under the table) person’s paycheck. Why to the democrats feel the need to take more of my money and give to random people every time they’re in office?!

At least with the republicans I know its going to the military for my protection.
So many have asked "Why is it that republicans are only concerned about someone before they’re born?"

I have a better question, Why are there so many slutty women out there having sex without protection and birth control?

Why is it my job to pay for other people’s mistakes? Not just with having kids but with people who didn’t graduate so they have crappy jobs so they’re on welfare.

And as for Republicans adopting American children… try looking in the mirror at your democrat Hollywood types that adopt kids from everywhere but America. And Dems are in office, tell your buddies to not make adopting children in the US so hard it takes 5-10 years. My sister in-law is still on a waiting list 8 years later waiting for a child.

I love my boyfriend very much. He is sweet to me and treats me so great. Sometimes I feel though that it is fake. Like he doesn’t know how to deal with me other than being sugary sweet. We have been together since the end of our senior year of high school, almost 4 years ago. He isn’t motivated towards life really though, and he often lets an immature side of him take over. He gets MAD about the silliest things sometimes, and it really really gets on my nerves.

I am an outdoor person who grew up in the country and he is from a big suburb. The older we get, the more apparent these things are. He isn’t interested in spending the day at the lake and I always want to go. We don’t share as many common interests as we used to. He likes to listen to old rock and roll, and I like that too, but if I bring any electronic music home, he never wants to listen to it or if we do, he picks it apart because it isn’t hard enough. He is a great musician and dreams of making that his career, but he doesn’t take any active steps towards it.

He has a warrant for not having insurance or registration or inspection and couldn’t pay the ticket. His parents offered to pay it all for him in exchange for him coming out and helping them fix up their new house, and he won’t do it. I have to cart him around everywhere. If I really cared about him deep inside, wouldn’t I feel more patience for him? I am confused as to why I get mad about these things. I try to help him, but he won’t fully accept it. I guess he is lazy?

He and I have lived together the whole time we have been together. There have been a couple of times were he betrayed my trust with a couple of other girls in the beginning of our relationship, and I simply can’t let that go. I don’t think he actually like slept with them, but there was still emotional cheating and him sneaking behind my back that hurt me so badly.

When we argue or have serious talks, sometimes I bring those times up because they still eat away at me inside and he gets mad at me and says that I am bringing up old stuff that isn’t relevant anymore. That it is old news. It shouldn’t matter anymore because so much time has passed.

He doesn’t know this, but I thought that if I did what he did to me behind his back, that I would feel even and better about it. I don’t. Now I feel like I have ruined the relationship on my end, and he has no idea I flirted over text with an ex for a while. The ex and I met up, but I just didn’t want to take it further in real life, so I didn’t.

Can I have a normal relationship with him ever again now that we both have emotionally betrayed each other? He is so perfect for me in so many ways, but I feel like there is a silent black cloud lingering overhead constantly. We’re only 21. Should I end this relationship and start from scratch with another man? Should I try to stick it out with my boyfriend and see if time indeed does heal wounds?

He was a white guy, black hair. He has a comedy special on Comedy Central. He is a very dark comedian, material wise. This is the background of the joke:

He got in a car accident with with a pair of newlyweds. And afterward, he told the guy "We could trade insurance information, but that won’t bring your wife back."

That isn’t an exact quote. Please help, it’s killing me. He also said something along the lines of "then you REALLY dont know how to wash a baby," later on in the stand up. He was also very deadpan. Good luck finding it!

I am a good father. I have a 7 year old girl and 5 year old boy. I have a 5 bedroom home. They have their own rooms. I get them every Thursday. I take them to school every Friday morning. On my weedends, I pick them back up Friday and take them to school Monday. I had to beg for this time. I told my ex that if she would give me that time I would agree to my Child Support to go up. My child support tripled and I took on twice the total time with my kids.

The point is that I love spending time with my kids and I would give anything to spend more time with them. I have never missed a weekend and provide med insurance for them, I provide them with their own rooms, their own clothes, toys, movies, music, take them to church. I do all of these things and yet I still get grief from their step dad, he tells me I’m not a man when I came to pick my kids up today. He told me that my child support of ,300 + 0 for med insurance isn’t enough and she isn’t happy and the important thing is to keep her happy. And that I will screw everything up and if I want everyone to get along I need to give her a check tonight. (She spent her money assuming the new C.S. check was coming and it’s not due till my next check. And she says I should have told her. I told her, I don’t write the check and she new it wasn’t due yet, but for some reason… I owe her. Not according to the attorney general but according to her. But yet instead of talking to me she gets her husband to go talk to me when I pick my kids up.

The last time he did this, I arranged for my kids (with my ex) to pick my kids up on her sunday because they were the ring barrer and flower girl in my brother’s wedding. When I showed up, HE decided he didn’t like that idea, wouldn’t let me have them when I showed up, pulled a gun on me, told me to leave and slammed the door. I punched the window on his door and ended up getting 10 months probation, 80 hours community service and paid back ,500 to him for the window and court fees.

So how do I get this to stop. She won’t stop it, she is the one provoking it. He is very very cocky and irrogant. The most irregant person I have every known. He has a way of pushing your buttons because he knows I can do nothing about it. When I was married to my ex, she knew him and mentioned he was an irregant prick that treats his wife like crap… So I just don’t know what to do. It takes every pride swallowing inch of my buddy to not beat the crap out of him. I don’t fight, but this guy wouldn’t be a problem. He was always the guy making more money, and providing more than I could for my kids. This last past year I got a huge pay raise, new house, new truck. My ex wife is very materialistic and I have all the things the begged me to have when we were together. He can’t get them for her and now I have them with my current wife. I don’t know if this has anything to do with it. Like he has to belittle me because of his self esteem issues…

I have several cavities in my mouth that I can’t afford to get filled right now (as I don’t have dental insurance and I make minimum wage). I’m planning on going as soon as I have the money, but I was wondering if there was anything I could do in the meantime to keep them from getting worse, aside from brushing and flossing (which I do almost compulsively now).
Thanks for any input.

My ex-boyfriend took my car and refused to bring it back. His last known address is my house and he got fired, so I can’t send him a certified letter like the police department told me to. I’m not sure what else I can do – maybe someone else in Texas can help me? Please?
The police said that its not stolen because he used to live with me.
The car and insurance are both in my name only. He has no family anywhere near here (only lived here for about a year). We’re definitely not common-law married.

He passed away and his ex wife (my half sisters mother) is trying to get her money through his life insurance policy. Remind you he left this money for his KIDS. It has been 11 years since any legal action has been taken. Please help!

I broke up with my ex about a month ago. While I was with her she was unemployed and I helped her out by paying her car insurance, paid for her cat to go to the vet, bought her medications she needed, and bought her younger sisters christmas presents because niether she nor her folks could afford to buy them anything. Now during all of this she kept telling me that she would pay me back as soon as she got a job. Will now she has had a job for a month (she started right before we broke up) and now when I talk to her about the money she tells me that she doesn’t have any extra money to pay me with. I don’t feel that she is sincere and I am thinking of taking her to small claims. I know there is no guarantee that I’ll get my money, but I feel that I have a better chance. Do you agree with me taking her to small claims, or should I just leave her be?
By the way, I do have all of the receipts. Most of it was charged, so I also have the card statements. For the one time I paid with a check, I have the canceled check from the bank plus a bank statement.

I’m desperately needing help with my bills. I’m not receiving child support and I’m tired of his games. My child doesn’t have insurance and I can’t afford to put her on mine and the AR Kids insurance system in my state says I make too much money. I need him to be hunted down and made to take care of his responsibility.

He wanted me to stop using credit cards and start paying them off. I stopped using them and have paid off some of them already. He wanted me to get my caps replaced and we agreed that I could save the money since I didn’t have dental insurance and didn’t want another monthly bill. I have saved money and am almost there. I have a 21 year old bipolar son. He has never gotten along with him and they have gotten into fights. He wanted me to get him on his feet. I told him that I would need time to do this because I would have to get my finances in control to be able to help my son out. The counselor told him that with the way my son is he would need financial help from me. My husband agreed. The counselor asked him how long I could have and he said 1 year. The counselor asked him what if it takes 2 years and he said that is okay I love her that much. The counselor said what if it never happens and he said that is okay I love her that much. He wants my son to get a drivers license. I have started letting him drive my car and will be getting him driving lessons. I wanted him to express his feelings to me more often. He is the kind of man that is always there for everyone else but he shuts me out. He came to me a month ago and said that he can’t live with my son and it was either him or my son. (We have 2 small children together.) I got rattled and thought here we go again he is going to leave. So I filed for a divorce to start financial protection for myself and our children. He changed his tune and I haven’t gone ahead with the divorce. Last night he comes to me and says that we are not compatible, we don’t have a marriage, we don’t know how to communicate to each other and nothing has changed. I’ve worked on everything that he wanted done and I still come last to him. I’m so lost. It sounds like he is asking for a divorce but when I come straight out and ask him he says how can I just walk away? Any insight?
I should add that my son does pay rent, has a job, buys his own medicine, pays for his nurses and doctors appointments. And he has psychofrenia affective disorder but I didn’t know how to spell it so I just put bipolar.

My husband of almost sixteen years has Marfan syndrome. He is 6′9" and very thin and is starting to get the concavity in his breastbone area and I can see the roof of his mouth thing happening because his teeth look subtly different.

We don’t have health insurance though I am actively looking for a job with insurance. He works remodeling houses (his dream – the only job he has had that he liked out of security and computers and other kinds of construction) for himself and comes home just dead tired after working.

I get it and I don’t mind it.

I just see him getting a tiny bit worse as the months go by and it angers me. I want him here to see our grandchildren and grow old with me.

I can’t imagine ever loving anyone else and I only want to be with him. We had problems then fought to save our marriage. If we then lose it over a genetic thing we can’t do anything about I don’t know if I will ever get over my rage.

We have three kids who so far do not have Marfan’s. Our son, 15, is 6′9" but given our heights that is not so weird. Our daughter and little son are not as hugely tall compared to their classmates but certainly are not short. And none of them has any symptoms of Marfan at all. Trust me I am grateful for that as that is a statistical miracle!

Just wondering if there are others out there with Marfan in the family scared for the future.
LOL. I can google and look at wikipedia. I was hoping to hear from family members, people with Marfan, and medical people about real-life experiences. Thanks, though, and I realize I didn’t make that clear in my question. :-)

How much money do I need to save, what kind of insurance should I have, what health issues do I need to work out, etc. And most importantly, what kinds of questions do we need to talk about first? There’s all kinds of books preparing people for marriage, but for parenthood – there’s so little!
I’m also interested in books of questions for couples preparing for childhood, like approaches to discipline, money, friends, school, religion, etc.
