As for "Why FLS is allowed on the site, even though she is 12 ..."

In case anyone is wondering, the law states that a child CAN be allowed on a site like this if they have parental permission. I did, indeed, speak to Britt's mother on the telephone, we had quite a long conversation, and she promised me several things, and said, Yes, she gave official permission for her daughter to both participate in this site, and participate in the Christmas Card list.

When you register, if you hit the "after such and such a date" for your birthday, it tells you to get parental permission, and emails us, the administrators, to alert us to look for it, before the person is approved.

Considering "It takes a village to raise a child", isn't it interesting to see the postivie side of technology at work right here. And FLS, that was a very thoughtful post you did earlier.

Kingrattus,


" Thanks for noticine that Lips died. Lips was my pet goldfish. He was the biggest I have ever ownedhe was about 8" long & about 4-5 " tall, he was fat & had a huge hump on his back... I name him lips cause he has big lips & he made loud sounds when he was eating his food. It was horrible to see ur pet riped to shreds, all that was left were his guts & nothing more "

What happened to your poor Lips? If it's to painful to talk
about, I'll understand. R.I.P. Lips.

[kingrattus]

Its not just painful, its also dissapointment, & anger... Saddly Lips became less & less scared of axle, Enough said about that.
My pond is now dull & boring. Lips made it bright & full to look at

I think you did the right thing...and it took guts for you to do it...a lot of people would just ignore it. Who knows, maybe God (if you believe in Him) or "fate" if you want to call it, wanted you to see it happen, so that a stop could be put to it...maybe it's an ongoing thing with this mother and her kids...anyway, you know what you saw and you felt badly about it, so you did what you felt was right...maybe your husband would have felt otherwise if he saw it too...anyway...i wouldnt worry about it...it's in God's hands now.
