    Sparks - I think more and more people are deciding to homeschool, with increasing drugs and violence in the public system.

    I think if it were better funded, standards could be formalized a bit more.

    If you do decide to homeschool, it would be fascinating to learn about it along with you!

    Poor Mother Earth

    ......even if I thought they could support all these children without ANY assistance (which I don't believe for one minute) imagine what it would to this planet if everyone had 17 children and each of those children has 17 children and each of those children and so on and so on.

    The same as cats and dogs who are allowed to breed too much.

    I really don't think it's anything to be proud (or praised ) about.It's a
    tremendous responsibilty & then there's the Mother's health to consider.

    Can you imagine getting 17 kids really for College?

    And she did it on her own, which is to really be admired. Not depending on news and tv programs to support the family.

    Someone else will more than likely foot the bill for that, too. I guess she's just going to keep breeding until her body gives out on her. Then she'll have all those kids to take care of her. As for all the kids, she's not thinking of anything else except what she wants. Who cares how many thousands of Pampers, etc go to the landfills. I read that the count was 90,000. It's all about her. It disgusts me. And there's no way she can be schooling them all properly. There's just not enough time in the day.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.
