Good comment and yes, all-in parenting is a big deal. In fact, careers are obviously important because they're needed to survive and provide, but how we raise our children and prepare them for life is, in many ways, far more important

The added "different" makes more sense. So a magazine wouldn't be allowed to send out different magazines for subscribers in New York versus LA?

Sort of agree, but sometimes hard replies can be the slap-in-the-face that makes people rethink what they're doing. Someday these parents may look back on the lovely little people they created and remember how much effort they spent tr

First world problem: we've chosen to let the second and third world make stuff for us because we had more important things to do, and then sell the stuff to us via Ali Baba or the 40 thieves, and there's no way to tell which is wh

And the music. So many places are trying to be hip with their music choices and it makes me more impatient than having to pee. I've walked out of so many restaurants because of the loud, obnoxious music. I can't even pump gas at m

I said "erase" meaning "erase from your attention as an important aspect of the headline", but ok, poor word. You still chose to ignore that important point because you've chosen it was unimportant. Why? It helps yo

Ok, call me crazy, but I've got this weird pet theory that says that while some drugs can offer benefits, they also carry a risk of harm. I call these “side effects”. Another theory of mine is that drugs that offer benefits such as imp

Side note: it's interesting that it's these male-dominant fields that have the noble "serve" descriptor associated with them. Given that women have dominated the fields of educating children and nursing our sick, it seem

Is that really that obvious? Given that nursing and nursing assitant jobs are amoung the most dangerous and the fact that the vast majority of those jobs are filled with women, your willingness to erase an important aspect of a headline is

That was my thought as well. I read a good post, then my dominant thought was changed to a negative slant because of an entirely unecessary -- and probably very inaccurate -- note of paranoid self-defense.

Yes. They'd hire someone like Wayne Dyer to develop treatment plans at a psychiatric hospital. My favorite personal example was when my employer hired a management engineering consultant company to help people who spent their time in m

When I did online dating, I had a few red flags that I used to exit out of a profile. One of them was boasting about being "brutally honest", "honest to a fault", and/or "I tell it like it is."

One of the trends that's directly related to "this" is the trend of getting plastic surgery. That's a pretty ugly, disastrous road.

We have examples of content that was destroyed because it was deemed trivial at the time, one example being the BBC's policy of erasing its television shows so the tape could be used for new shows. The policy began with the idea that a

Sure, but those values are not always the noble idea of wanting to help people. There are a lot of egotistical social misfits with temper problems who are operating on us. Some of them are very good at it. Some of them are less good.

Old guy trying to put things together ahead: I think that this mentality may have started as a result of the Griggs vs Duke Power Co case from 1970. Griggs was a black man who was turned down a promotion because he failed a company aptitud
