What is the rudest question...

I've always thought that Quinn looks a lot like you..... he obviously has no idea what he is talking about....

Thanks sweety Yeah she does resemble me quite a bit. She's a nice mix, looks like daddy and looks like me. My son looks more like me then he looks like daddy.

"How much did it cost?" or "Was it expensive?" from total strangers asking about our daughter's adoption. And not a question, but when they see our family with one Asian daughter, and 2 Caucasian children, we get a lot of "Oh, you adopted and then you got pregnant. That happens all the time!" Um, no, lots of people adopt and never have biological children.

Thanks, girls, for your compassionate responses. You know, some stupid, nitwit comments I shrug off, or at the most, fester for a short time. (too shocked to reply, then later wishing I had said something witty)

I was never skinny. I wore "mini skirts", but not as mini as some of my long legged friends. Yes, I carried weigh from the hips down no matter what I did. But the comments by those guys remained with me. I'm sure other people heard them. I was mortified and it ruined me for a long time, wondering what people aren't saying to my face.

I was so obssessed with my body around that time, I had 3 liposuctions, lost 30 pounds, excercise etc. I needed to rebuilt..rather FIND self esteem. Still working on it.

Anyway, Yes, I believe in karma too.

.....When I was a young girl, I was about 12 .....sensetive, and this one perticular friend of my aunt was a horrible man. ...and this friend of my aunts said,....you're fat enough". It took a few seconds to comprehend what he said (no grown-up had ever used those ugly words with me before) and then I ran out of the house crying. I'm still traumatized by that. How could anyone be so ugly, especially to a sweet child?

please oh please tell me your aunt threw him out of her house and her life. what a miserable waste of skin fro an adult to try to hurt a child. i am so sorry,

My aunt is an amazing woman, she was as shocked as I was, and just as hurt by the man who said that to me. I missed her words to him because I ran outside and my mom ran out with me, but she kicked him out of her house and she has never spoken with him since.

He was at least 25 years older then me. There was no excuse for his words and I will never forget it. I wish people would be more careful when they speak to other people, especially children. I hope no one ever talks to my children like that.

Thanks. Yeah it still hurts. Words are weapons for sure.
