To me, not wanting to be acknowledged as a grandparent or parent is even sadder.
yes, but FAFE, we must take into consideration the way others feel....remember, your not wrong for feeling that way, but others might not feel the same way you do about it, and it doesn't make them wrong, it's simply how they are....
and to the person who suggested about not wanting information like that in the paper due to the loonies out there...it really angers me, when I think of how lucky we were as kids, to have the free roam we did to go outside and play...and never had to worry about child molesters or people out there stealing kids for child slavery and prostitition...honestly, being a young mother today would really scare me, however, like anything else, I suppose you get used to it...honestly, I cannot understand why strict laws are not passed to protect our children....but yes, I certainly understand how one might feel this way....and there are a whole lot of loonies out there....it's a shame....
Fafe...I hope your not upset, or feel like we're saying your wrong....your not wrong for your feelings, however, we must learn to take the feelings of others into account, for even though we may disagree or not understand, that person owns those feelings and they are just as important to them, as yours are to you....
does that make any sense?
