#208 - hostile much?? I'm sure that she didn't want it to happen to the other family, either. I'm not quite sure why you are so angry that she didn't acknowledge what happened to people she didn't even know???
"I wanted to name my daughter megan but i was afraid that kids would call her maggot"
Uhhhh, what? That is the weirdest fear of a nickname ever. Who gets maggot from megan? I can see MAYBE getting it from Maggie, but Megan?
Plus, just relax people, if your kid is going to get picked on, they're going to get picked on regardless of their name. And if they're the type of kid that's popular they may never get picked on, even if their name is Sunshine or Lalala or something equally stupid. It has to do with the cliques and the bullies and personalities and who is friends with who - not determined at birth based on what your parents put on your birth certificate.
I kind of agree with 208. It's just the way she said it. I get what she's saying - that they dodged a bullet b/c it would've been harder to have the baby taken away once they already had it for a week.
But the way she wrote her post almost makes it seem like she's happy that the girl took it back and is raising it herself, rather than letting the other family keep it. I'm pretty sure she didn't mean to come across that way, but she did. At least to me.
Did she say it that way #3? Nope, but she sure is blessed! Anger has nothing to do with making an observation. Like this one: You read far too much into what people don't even say. Are you Nightowl Crapper or Asslan? Arguing for arguments' sake?
Uhhhh, what? That is the weirdest fear of a nickname ever. Who gets maggot from megan? I can see MAYBE getting it from Maggie, but Megan?
---------------------
I saw that too and did a double-take. If you're going to stretch Megan into definitely being called Maggot, you can stretch ANY name into a bad nickname. Wonder what she DID end up naming her kid.
I can't stand people NEEDING a nickname like Mary Mary's post. Why not just name the child a name you will be happy to call them? Why name them something that you know you'll never call them...and then have to worry about the perfect nickname?
It's annoying growing up when everyone knows you by one thing but it's not your real name. And sometimes you forget to only use your real name on important fill-in-the-boxes tests like MCAS or similar. And it screws up all kinds of legal things and paperwork.
So they're never going to call her Cecily...WHY name her Cecily then? Out of all the tens of thousands of names, you picked Cecily....and now you don't want to call her that? Weird. PLUS then she has 5 MORE nicknames to use on her blog. Talk about confusing.
There's a little girl at my kids' school whose name is Fiona, but all of a sudden this year she is going by Rosie. At first I thought I was losing my mind or that it was some long-lost twin or something. WTF.
I'm not quite sure why you are so angry that she didn't acknowledge what happened to people she didn't even know???
-------------------------
I don't think she's "angry" - (WTF did you get that?) - but yes, it's weird the way it was written. Most normal people would say "My heart breaks for the other family that got the baby taken away from them........." or even "It sucks for the other family but I'm so glad it didn't happen to us..........."
"So they're never going to call her Cecily...WHY name her Cecily then? Out of all the tens of thousands of names, you picked Cecily....and now you don't want to call her that?" -----------------------------------------
My dad grew up in a family of 12 kids. My dad was the only one that used his first name, as well, his name. All the other kids were called by their middle names. Never could figure out why my grandparents did that - it was just plain odd.
Any Mary, Mary seems to have a lot of weird "issues".
#14 I don't see it. I don't know why she would be expected to acknowledge someone she doesn't even know when she's only talking from her perspective? Wow, some peas will find any stupid reason to get their panties in a wad!
Look at y'all gettin' all butt hurt because someone failed to recognize someone else's pain. She was telling HER story, not theirs. Man, you girls belong back at the bukkit where they all get butt hurt for no reason...
Yep, others had to mention the other family's pain before Regina even spoke about them. She isn't coming off so well in that thread, but whatevs right!
And I'll be totally honest since this is an anonymous smack blog. I'd be all nanny nanny boo boo too. And I would have felt the same way when the other family was chosen - they already have two kids! Wahhh.
Sometimes you can't help how you feel. You can, however, control how much you put on on the interwebs for people to judge you.
#18. I read the post as "matter of fact", not as a "ha ha you didn't get the baby either" type of post. People just love to add in emotions that aren't there. There is no inflection in the written word so unless there is a (!) or some type of smiley face how do you what the emotion is behind the words?
So they're never going to call her Cecily...WHY name her Cecily then? Out of all the tens of thousands of names, you picked Cecily....and now you don't want to call her that? Weird.

She should have picked out 5 names and hyphenated it. Then they could have used any of the names they wanted to use at any given time. (pea logic--LMAO!!!)
Many are saying here that they're voting for Romney because they agree with/like Romneys policies better.
What policies are those, exactly? I've loooked and looked and all I can find is vague 'I'll cut government and get America working' stuff. No specifics on what he'll cut, how he'll create jobs, tho I did come across some odd statements of 'I'll let you know what I plan to do after I'm elected".
#32. The president is just a "face". Don't think it really matters which one is in. Want a change in government than we would have to fire all of the congress and the senate and start over. That's a pipe dream and probably won't ever happen so why even get your panties in a bunch over who is president.
I'd be all nanny nanny boo boo too. And I would have felt the same way when the other family was chosen - they already have two kids! Wahhh.
Sometimes you can't help how you feel. --------- I'd feel the same way. It is like when a friend dates a guy you like and he turns out to be a complete jerk.

----------------------------------------
If you "don't see it", that's sad. It's called empathy. What happened to the other family was WAY WORSE than what happened to her. Yet she doesn't even mention it. It's all about her and she's acting like she just won the lottery b/c the bio mom was a selfish bitch and gave the baby away and then took it back.
She looks like an ass and I'm pretty sure there's only a handful of you that "don't see it". The rest of us cringed when reading it. At least I did.
It sucks to be her but it sucks even more for the other family. Don't you ever hear stories about other people and you feel so bad for them? Like you hear someone's kid gets cancer or their husband dies and what? Because you've never met them in person, you don't stop and think "that sucks" or "they must be hurting so much right now".
41 it happens all the time, sadly. I don't know anyone personally who it happened to, but it definitely happens.
There's a blogger named Nora Griffin and it happened to her. Actually they had the little girl for quite a while I think - maybe 2 months or so? The whole nursery was perfect, they had a closet full of clothes for her, all the baby gear, everything. I had followed her blog back then b/c I was scrapping a lot and she is a scrapper/paper crafter/etc.
So all of a sudden things started going wrong and things went back and forth. The bio mom kept changing her mind, like 3 times I want to say. I felt so bad for them. Then yup, she took the baby back. They had to get rid of the entire room of stuff. Broke my heart for them. It's one of the few times I cried full-on tears reading someone's blog.
39 isn't that the dullest "funny story" thread you've ever read? I can't believe there are women on there saying that they're laughing so hard they're crying. NONE of those stories made me laugh. I purposely read it last night b/c I was in a bad mood and needed a good laugh. Fail!
My husband is reserved and not very funny so I knew I'd have nothing to contribute. So I didn't. Some of the others there should realize they have husbands like mine. If that's the best story you have for that thread, don't post it.
That chick's baby names are atrocious. Helen??? Janice??? Might as well start dressing the baby girl in a housecoat and curlers as soon as she pops out.
Jesus, relax on the family names. They all sound like old lady names, and boring ones at that. Give the girl a cute or strong name of her OWN. Your family knows you love them without saddling your kid with their stupid names.
I'm 41. Wow 43, that is truly heart breaking. I guess I just thought that once rights were signed away it as completely done. There must be so many facets of adoption that no one knows about unless they experience it for themselves.

I only found 2 of the stories to be funny--the KY story and the Scrubbing bubbles story. The rest were lame.
48 if your name is really janice, you're typing here so that means you're also already a grown woman, so it fits you in your generation. It's a perfectly fine name for your generation
This is a different generation and people don't associate the name Janice with a sweet little girl toddler anymore.
Also I just get annoyed when people have so many beautiful names to use out there - tens of thousands - and they keep using the same family names over and over. Give the poor kid their own special name that is for THEM, not a name that is honoring someone ELSE. Honor the other person some other way in life, not by giving your new baby a name that isn't even their own.
51 - We do family names as middle names. Everyone gets their own first name and a middle name honoring someone else. I'm very happy with my middle name because I'm named after a wonderful person and I will always have that connection. Don't poo-poo it just because you don't like it. I'd rather have a classic name than something that looks like someone took a bunch of Scrabble tiles and threw it at a wall.

She will be "thanked properly" till the end of time.
I went to Regina's thread, expecting to read utter glee at another family's misfortune.
Instead, it seems like she was trying to make the best of a bad situation. She's saying that the blessing was that the kid stayed with his birth mother.
I agree. By all human rights the baby should stay with the birth mother. That is why all state law gives a grace period for the mother to change her mind. Because you know, she might change her mind. And if that happens then that is a good thing for the mother and baby, irrespective of anything else.
I knew a couple who were adopting a baby, stocked and decorated a nursery,picked him up at the hospital, kept him 4 weeks and then the bio-dad and his mother took the baby away. They were absolutely devastated for a very long time but thankfully ended up with another baby about three years later.
The only story I found even slightly funny was the guy coming up on skis with his pants around his feet.
I am not directing this at any one person... so take the use of "you" as anyone and nondescript
If you have never been on the roller coaster of adoption you really shouldn't comment... yes, there are laws in place to protect BOTH sides, but it sucks when you are all prepared, being a family and then the rug is taken out from under you. While I read her post, and her word choice probably wasn't the best, I sort of understood what she was saying... when bio parents make that HARD decision, there is usually remorse, and many times with counseling and a good situation things work out. not always but they do... and the idea that simply biology is the BEST decision for a child? um, well, there are countless situations that couldn't be further from the truth... just sayin
I went to Regina's thread, expecting to read utter glee at another family's misfortune. --------------- It sounds more like she was glad that her heartache was not worse than it was. I see no ill will towards the other family simply a statement that what she thought was a perfect situation didn't work out that way for them.
No one said a damn thing about whether the birth mother is fit or not.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Nope. But they did assume that the birth mother keeping the child would be a good thing.
That would depend on whether she was a good mother.
Presumably there was a reason she chose to place the child for adoption in the first place. At some point she decided she wasn't ready to be a parent.
So what changed? It's pretty unlikely that the birth mother's circumstances changed between the time she decided on adoption and taking the baby back. She just decided that raising the child was better for her, emotionally.
So what changed? It's pretty unlikely that the birth mother's circumstances changed between the time she decided on adoption and taking the baby back. She just decided that raising the child was better for her, emotionally. ------------- Chances are she was a young mother who thought she had no support. Her family and the father turned their backs on her for most of the pregnancy but when they actually saw the baby their hearts softened and they decided they could be supportive of her. That happens a lot.

ahhh just like a fairy tale. What kind of lala land do you live in?
Right. Because there's no such thing as an unsupported single welfare mother. @@
No one's fault but your own that you didn't cash a check. Who leaves a $200 check lying around for years? ================= Somebody who lives so comfortably that $200 would never be missed from their bank account but is so uptight that if the check were for $2 they would be over at the neighbors asking for a new check.
highly doubt that 70. chances are the bio mom just couldn't give the baby away when it came down to it. 99% of the time it's that. The other 1%, yeah maybe the baby daddy or the girl's parents suddenly pop back up to see the baby and the girl thinks Oh this will work out, i have support now...
yeah right until the parents have to pay for everything for the mom and the baby and until the baby daddy finds a hot new single girl with no responsibilities to hang out with
Maybe I just need a board break, but it seems to me the peas are even more unfunny than usual lately. Yesterday we had the really boring dh stories making everyone laugh till they cried, now this. I can see where this kind of situation could be funny but these aren't.
The Bukkit has sucked ass for months now. The same lame ass threads stay on page 1 FOREVER. The board has never moved slower than it does now.
I think many of the regulars have moved on and now we just have a bunch of boring ass twats that can't make it through the fucking day without posting stupid, vapid posts.
OMG, I am going to have to quit going to the Pod and reading that drivel. How can a collective group of women be so goddamned stupid?
If ya lose a check, you're screwed honey. Long time ago, let it go. It's your fault, move on.
If your friend doesn't want to talk to you or come around, GUESS WHAT? They don't want to be friends anymore!
What is so hard for these losers to grasp? People screw up, people stop liking/loving other people EVERY SINGLE DAY and don't post on message boards about it!
She probably googled "Dance Moms" and the post came up in the results. Google doesn't care if the post is old. She joined just to comment on that thread. That is the weirdest part to me.
Women are brave posting on a message board. They can be anon and never have to worry about what they say. If they were at a party, I'm sure they would never bring up the shit they spew on the bukkit.

Heads up, Right Wing Wackadoodles! CONDI RICE WILL NEVER BE THE MITTEN'S RUNNING MATE. Never in a million years. Her politics are for shit but she is an intelligent woman. No way will she ever be seen with Mitten.
ITA, 113. But the Repubs have moved so far to the right just in the last four years that Condi is now on par with Emma Goldman and the Rosenbergs, as far as their litmus test goes.
I could never vote for Condoleeza Rice. I haven't forgotten her part in the invasion of Iraq.
Here's an article she wrote and published in the New York Times a few months before the invasion. http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/23/opinion/why-we-know-iraq-is-lying.html
Considering that Bush was never truly elected but rather appointed by the Supreme Court, I'll stand with 114. He's going down in flames right now over Bain and all his lies there.

Pineapple has crept back to the Pod on little fruit feet.

Pineapple lurvvvves her some Newt Gingrich. She had a sad on the board that he was too much of an asshole to be a viable GOP candidate.
During the primaries, her brilliant, take-no-hostages Newtie pushed hard on the issue of Mitt's Bain outsourcing, tax returns, etc. Fair questions! The voting public deserves to know!
Now that dems are asking those exact same questions it's completely unseemly! And unfounded!
There was a fight about crayons one year. Some Peas were mad because the schools specified Crayola, and they wanted to buy an off-brand.
-------------------------------
Of course, because those cheap-ass moms need the extra money for their own Coach bags and weekly mani-pedis. God forbid 20 extra cents goes to their kids for Crayola.
Generic is fine for some things, but off-brand crayons SUCK.

Yeah, those cheap-ass moms need the extra money to go towards THEM of course, not their kids. They are all giggly on 2Peas about their collection of Coach or LV bags, their Ugg boots, and their weekly mani-pedis, but god forbid the school asks them to shell out 20 cents extra for their own CHILD.
Selfish idiots. It's not like the school is in some big conspiracy with Crayola. They put Crayola on the list because everyone knows that off-brand crayons SUCK. They are so annoying to try to use.
Damn it! Sorry about the almost-duplicate post. My first time I got an error and it didn't go through, then posted 141 and saw that 140 was suddenly there.
I feel a bit sorry for the Kendra poster - imagine what sort of empty, pathetic life she must have if this is how she 'entertains' herself. Must really suck to have a life that.
I read that Joseph Smith was directed by an angel to a buried book containing the religious beliefs of ancient people. Where is this book today, displayed in a Mormon church?
Kendra sucks - and swallows, too! ======================= Not much to swallow when your 'partner' is made of plastic. The Kendra that posts here wouldn't be able to get herself fucked in a brothel.
Oh FFS....another chance for Paigepea to brag about her house:
"We are landscaping and have created beautiful gardens all around our house. We have floor to ceiling windows to enjoy the various garden spaces, but I'd like to put a wrought iron bench or two throughout the yard so we can go out and sit in the gardens. "

Why do I get the feeling that the people that are so appalled at a teen being a DD are the ones that don't drink at all? It is possible to not be in a good enough condition to drive without being falling over drunk.

anyone notice how a bunch of the 'weird up your convo for eavesdroppers' comments are actually 'talk loudly about weird stuff in public because you want attention'.
The peas love to act like it's the strangers being nosy, but they love the attention so much.
#178 I think it's more likely than not that they, themselves are the nosy ones listening in on other people's conversations. If anyone is actually listening to a pea conversation it's due to the fact they are talking to loud so people end up hearing it whether they want to or not.
178 here...180, i think you are right on with that comment. Honestly the majority of the peas have such dull lives that no stranger would care to listen in. But plenty of them love being the center of attention!

******************************************
Ha. Might have been mine! I had Fiestawarevfor a couple of years and decided it was junky. It scratched and chipped so easily. The original stuff from way back may have been okay, but the new stuff from Kohls and Macy's is crap. Sent mine all to the good will a couple of years ago. Some Pea probably peed herself in glee when she found it at the Goodwill!
Fiestaware is on sale at Kohls, and we're looking for some new dishes, so I checked it out. Most of the platters already had scratches on them, just from being on display, so we passed. I don't chuck dishes around in the kitchen, but these were scratched just from being stacked on top of each other. No thanks.
So, are we supposed to congratulate you on what a kind helpful person you are, or what? Nobody cares. ------------------ He obviously didn't thank her effusively enough, so now she's come to the peas to get the thanks 'owed' to her.

Eh, that's b/c Kohl's is trashy. All their stuff is covered in dust half the time too.
Plenty of my non-fiestaware dishes have scratches and chips from normal use too. They smack together in the dishwasher, they scratch when you cut meat on them, etc. Plates get chipped, and fiestaware isn't some magical chip-proof brand.
So many choice quotes there. How to pick a favorite. Let's see, there's "We political peas are so superior to all other peas because we talk about real important things (even though 99% of the time we just end up calling names)" or "It's so unfortunate when someone (usually me) has to ruin a good discussion by resorting to childish insults" or "I want to talk about politics, therefore I am intelligent and well-informed."
oh my bad, that thread is 5 months old! I must have missed it the first time around. In that case, the "acknowledge my good deed" post is the current frontrunner in teh 'stupidest post of the day' contest.

I would think it was understood that she was sad for the other family as well. It sucks all the way around.

Kendra is a nickname. Her full name is Kenendra.
OMG Like Kenendra Kennedy? What an awesome name!!!
#10, the way Regina wrote it makes her come across as a selfish bitch to me. No, I am not angry just because I used those terms.

Yeah, I guess you could see it that way, but I don't think that was her intention. Looks like some have brought up the other family as well...
Look at y'all gettin' all butt hurt because someone failed to recognize someone else's pain. She was telling HER story, not theirs. Man, you girls belong back at the bukkit where they all get butt hurt for no reason...
Yep, others had to mention the other family's pain before Regina even spoke about them. She isn't coming off so well in that thread, but whatevs right!

And I'll be totally honest since this is an anonymous smack blog. I'd be all nanny nanny boo boo too. And I would have felt the same way when the other family was chosen - they already have two kids! Wahhh.
Sometimes you can't help how you feel. You can, however, control how much you put on on the interwebs for people to judge you.
I know I'm a total bitch though.
#18. I read the post as "matter of fact", not as a "ha ha you didn't get the baby either" type of post. People just love to add in emotions that aren't there. There is no inflection in the written word so unless there is a (!) or some type of smiley face how do you what the emotion is behind the words?
So they're never going to call her Cecily...WHY name her Cecily then? Out of all the tens of thousands of names, you picked Cecily....and now you don't want to call her that? Weird.

This x 1000 ^^^^
I read it as more of a ha ha on them, they didn't get the baby either, nanny nanny boo boo.

That was my read of that post as well.
Oh fucking christ. ANOTHER thank you thread?

She should have picked out 5 names and hyphenated it. Then they could have used any of the names they wanted to use at any given time.

Many are saying here that they're voting for Romney because they agree with/like Romneys policies better.
What policies are those, exactly? I've loooked and looked and all I can find is vague 'I'll cut government and get America working' stuff. No specifics on what he'll cut, how he'll create jobs, tho I did come across some odd statements of 'I'll let you know what I plan to do after I'm elected".
Specifics, anyone?
32 Take it back to the pod, we don't care about that shit here. Ask Typhus.
#32. The president is just a "face". Don't think it really matters which one is in. Want a change in government than we would have to fire all of the congress and the senate and start over. That's a pipe dream and probably won't ever happen so why even get your panties in a bunch over who is president.

#14 I don't see it. I don't know why she would be expected to acknowledge someone she doesn't even know when she's only talking from her perspective?
----------------------------------------
If you "don't see it", that's sad. It's called empathy. What happened to the other family was WAY WORSE than what happened to her. Yet she doesn't even mention it. It's all about her and she's acting like she just won the lottery b/c the bio mom was a selfish bitch and gave the baby away and then took it back.
She looks like an ass and I'm pretty sure there's only a handful of you that "don't see it". The rest of us cringed when reading it. At least I did.
It sucks to be her but it sucks even more for the other family. Don't you ever hear stories about other people and you feel so bad for them? Like you hear someone's kid gets cancer or their husband dies and what? Because you've never met them in person, you don't stop and think "that sucks" or "they must be hurting so much right now".
No? Then you're probably a sociopath. Creepy.

How can a bio mom give a baby to a couple and then take it back a week later? Holy shit, what a terrible situation.
Thypus is a moran. She calls comic sans unprofessional and childish and yet she used it all over her fucking school website.

What a big fat liar!
41 it happens all the time, sadly. I don't know anyone personally who it happened to, but it definitely happens.
There's a blogger named Nora Griffin and it happened to her. Actually they had the little girl for quite a while I think - maybe 2 months or so? The whole nursery was perfect, they had a closet full of clothes for her, all the baby gear, everything. I had followed her blog back then b/c I was scrapping a lot and she is a scrapper/paper crafter/etc.
So all of a sudden things started going wrong and things went back and forth. The bio mom kept changing her mind, like 3 times I want to say. I felt so bad for them. Then yup, she took the baby back. They had to get rid of the entire room of stuff. Broke my heart for them. It's one of the few times I cried full-on tears reading someone's blog.
39 isn't that the dullest "funny story" thread you've ever read? I can't believe there are women on there saying that they're laughing so hard they're crying. NONE of those stories made me laugh. I purposely read it last night b/c I was in a bad mood and needed a good laugh. Fail!
My husband is reserved and not very funny so I knew I'd have nothing to contribute. So I didn't. Some of the others there should realize they have husbands like mine. If that's the best story you have for that thread, don't post it.
That chick's baby names are atrocious. Helen??? Janice??? Might as well start dressing the baby girl in a housecoat and curlers as soon as she pops out.
Jesus, relax on the family names. They all sound like old lady names, and boring ones at that. Give the girl a cute or strong name of her OWN. Your family knows you love them without saddling your kid with their stupid names.
I'm 41. Wow 43, that is truly heart breaking. I guess I just thought that once rights were signed away it as completely done. There must be so many facets of adoption that no one knows about unless they experience it for themselves.
Oh come on, the cactus and the KY story made me chuckle!
Hey now my name is Janice, is it really all that atrocious? I mean my folks could have named me Mabel or Ethel.
Hey #42, you hit a nerve! Thypus definitely reads "the blog"! hahahahaha!

_________________________________________
I only found 2 of the stories to be funny--the KY story and the Scrubbing bubbles story. The rest were lame.
48 if your name is really janice, you're typing here so that means you're also already a grown woman, so it fits you in your generation. It's a perfectly fine name for your generation
This is a different generation and people don't associate the name Janice with a sweet little girl toddler anymore.
Also I just get annoyed when people have so many beautiful names to use out there - tens of thousands - and they keep using the same family names over and over. Give the poor kid their own special name that is for THEM, not a name that is honoring someone ELSE. Honor the other person some other way in life, not by giving your new baby a name that isn't even their own.
ITA 50. Same 2 stories.
Mrs. Tyler's school blog has so many different fonts and graphics and colors it gave me a seizure.
I don't understand why someone would name their daughter Precious or Princess.
Mrs. Tyler needs to understand that she teaches middle school, not first grade.
51 - We do family names as middle names. Everyone gets their own first name and a middle name honoring someone else. I'm very happy with my middle name because I'm named after a wonderful person and I will always have that connection. Don't poo-poo it just because you don't like it. I'd rather have a classic name than something that looks like someone took a bunch of Scrabble tiles and threw it at a wall.
Can we be done with the "thank you note" threads for the year? We get it nightowl - anyone who doesn't send a thank you note is satan's spawn.

I went to Regina's thread, expecting to read utter glee at another family's misfortune.
Instead, it seems like she was trying to make the best of a bad situation. She's saying that the blessing was that the kid stayed with his birth mother.
I'm not getting all the outrage.
I agree. By all human rights the baby should stay with the birth mother. That is why all state law gives a grace period for the mother to change her mind. Because you know, she might change her mind. And if that happens then that is a good thing for the mother and baby, irrespective of anything else.
I knew a couple who were adopting a baby, stocked and decorated a nursery,picked him up at the hospital, kept him 4 weeks and then the bio-dad and his mother took the baby away. They were absolutely devastated for a very long time but thankfully ended up with another baby about three years later.
The only story I found even slightly funny was the guy coming up on skis with his pants around his feet.
And if that happens then that is a good thing for the mother and baby
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
it's only good for the baby if she's a good mother.
I am not directing this at any one person... so take the use of "you" as anyone and nondescript
If you have never been on the roller coaster of adoption you really shouldn't comment... yes, there are laws in place to protect BOTH sides, but it sucks when you are all prepared, being a family and then the rug is taken out from under you. While I read her post, and her word choice probably wasn't the best, I sort of understood what she was saying... when bio parents make that HARD decision, there is usually remorse, and many times with counseling and a good situation things work out. not always but they do... and the idea that simply biology is the BEST decision for a child? um, well, there are countless situations that couldn't be further from the truth... just sayin
I went to Regina's thread, expecting to read utter glee at another family's misfortune.
---------------
It sounds more like she was glad that her heartache was not worse than it was. I see no ill will towards the other family simply a statement that what she thought was a perfect situation didn't work out that way for them.
Ah, I wondered how long it would be until an infertility/adoption martyr showed up to cry about how no one understands the trouble they've seen.
No one said a damn thing about whether the birth mother is fit or not.
That wasn't the point of this discussion.
No one said a damn thing about whether the birth mother is fit or not.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Nope. But they did assume that the birth mother keeping the child would be a good thing.
That would depend on whether she was a good mother.
Presumably there was a reason she chose to place the child for adoption in the first place. At some point she decided she wasn't ready to be a parent.
So what changed? It's pretty unlikely that the birth mother's circumstances changed between the time she decided on adoption and taking the baby back. She just decided that raising the child was better for her, emotionally.

Oh, sweet Jesus. Your reading comprehension is nil.

Chances are she was a young mother who thought she had no support. Her family and the father turned their backs on her for most of the pregnancy but when they actually saw the baby their hearts softened and they decided they could be supportive of her. That happens a lot.

Hah, 78. She even said that it was considered a lot of money to her family. So uh.. why didn't she just take it to the bank when she got it?
It never ceases to amaze me how people won't accept personal responsibility for their actions, or lack thereof in this case.
highly doubt that 70. chances are the bio mom just couldn't give the baby away when it came down to it. 99% of the time it's that. The other 1%, yeah maybe the baby daddy or the girl's parents suddenly pop back up to see the baby and the girl thinks Oh this will work out, i have support now...
yeah right until the parents have to pay for everything for the mom and the baby and until the baby daddy finds a hot new single girl with no responsibilities to hang out with

Maybe I just need a board break, but it seems to me the peas are even more unfunny than usual lately. Yesterday we had the really boring dh stories making everyone laugh till they cried, now this. I can see where this kind of situation could be funny but these aren't.
The Pea's aren't really known for their humor. Most things I find funny they'd probably have a coronary over.
The Bukkit has sucked ass for months now. The same lame ass threads stay on page 1 FOREVER. The board has never moved slower than it does now.
I think many of the regulars have moved on and now we just have a bunch of boring ass twats that can't make it through the fucking day without posting stupid, vapid posts.
I love Kendra. Take the stick out of your ass. Or go back to 2peas.
It would take forever to remove the eleventy billion Kendra posts, and they're harmless.
Annoying, but harmless.
Plus I'm pretty sure if I removed them, the Kendra lover would start ramping up the Kenra posts.

Eh, I've used Fiestaware for my entire adult life (decades) and I like it a lot (obviously), but it's nothing orgasm-worthy for sure.
Also: (1) those pitchers have been around for fucking ever and (2) it's pretty darned easy to get FW at steep discounts.
My BiL and SiL have separate bedrooms (early 40's, not snorers) and I think it's weird as hell.

I'm not a drinker, nor do I think there is anything wrong with someone else having a few drinks. I would rather have someone's fully licensed teen drive them home if they have had too much to drink, then to have their butts out on the road where they could harm or worse kill someone else.

"Eh, I've used Fiestaware for my entire adult life (decades) and I like it a lot (obviously), but it's nothing orgasm-worthy for sure."
This is so true!!!!
haha, I saw fiestaware at my goodwill store, I knew the peas would crap their pants if they saw it there.

anyone notice how a bunch of the 'weird up your convo for eavesdroppers' comments are actually 'talk loudly about weird stuff in public because you want attention'.
The peas love to act like it's the strangers being nosy, but they love the attention so much.
Mariah's comments on that thread were crazy. Satanic rituals, and sleeping with her friend's husband?
She's a freak.
#178
I think it's more likely than not that they, themselves are the nosy ones listening in on other people's conversations. If anyone is actually listening to a pea conversation it's due to the fact they are talking to loud so people end up hearing it whether they want to or not.
#179
Nothing she says surprises me anymore.
178 here...180, i think you are right on with that comment. Honestly the majority of the peas have such dull lives that no stranger would care to listen in. But plenty of them love being the center of attention!

eek! She looks like she's had work done. Not good work, but work. Either that, or she needs new makeup techniques.

So, are we supposed to congratulate you on what a kind helpful person you are, or what? Nobody cares.

Ha. Might have been mine! I had Fiestawarevfor a couple of years and decided it was junky. It scratched and chipped so easily. The original stuff from way back may have been okay, but the new stuff from Kohls and Macy's is crap. Sent mine all to the good will a couple of years ago. Some Pea probably peed herself in glee when she found it at the Goodwill!

Jesus, what on earth are you doing to your bowls and dishes that they all chipped enough for you to get rid of them?
Look out 186 the fiestaware cult members are after you now. How dare you say anything negative - if it chipped it MUST have been your fault!!!
Fiestaware is on sale at Kohls, and we're looking for some new dishes, so I checked it out. Most of the platters already had scratches on them, just from being on display, so we passed. I don't chuck dishes around in the kitchen, but these were scratched just from being stacked on top of each other. No thanks.

He obviously didn't thank her effusively enough, so now she's come to the peas to get the thanks 'owed' to her.

Eh, that's b/c Kohl's is trashy. All their stuff is covered in dust half the time too.
Plenty of my non-fiestaware dishes have scratches and chips from normal use too. They smack together in the dishwasher, they scratch when you cut meat on them, etc. Plates get chipped, and fiestaware isn't some magical chip-proof brand.
#185 I agree. I also think she wins the prize for the dumbest post of the day.
Oh, sorry 193, but we have a new winner of the day!

So many choice quotes there. How to pick a favorite. Let's see, there's "We political peas are so superior to all other peas because we talk about real important things (even though 99% of the time we just end up calling names)" or "It's so unfortunate when someone (usually me) has to ruin a good discussion by resorting to childish insults" or "I want to talk about politics, therefore I am intelligent and well-informed."
oh my bad, that thread is 5 months old! I must have missed it the first time around. In that case, the "acknowledge my good deed" post is the current frontrunner in teh 'stupidest post of the day' contest.
What's the prize, anyway?

Great thread on SBR!
194, old thread, bumped by a troll.
#195..no prob
A hand written certificate on lined notebook paper, and a gift card for the dollar store with a $1 loaded on it. That should cover it.
198, I like that the gift card doesn't cover the tax. this gives the winner a great topic for a new post, that might let them win on another day!
Just finished reading that train wreck #196.
Really wish I had some popcorn and a coke while reading that.
