Reply #59: For some reason, you seem to have a problem with the title.

I can't help when my parents were born - you'll have to take that up with my grandparents.

You're the 2nd person who has used the word "deprived" to describe my kids.

Did you ever think for a minute, that my parents are the ones who stopped talking to me? Did you ever think that THEY are the ones who wrote me and my children off?

I didn't ask for suggestions. I came here and posted my thoughts, because I'm part of a group of people here who share my ideals, and I thought that maybe some others here have gone through the same experience.

I'm amused by people who seem to think that I haven't tried what you just "suggested". Read my post again, will ya? And think about who was being irrational for my entire life - and refuse to let up. Do you really think that I bring up politics and religion with them? THEY do. It never stops. They parlay EVERY FUCKING thing I do into religion or politics. If my jeans are too tight, I get Bible verses thrown at me in reference to modesty. If I have a beer, I'm ruining the temple of the Holy Spirit.

My parents have no problem with the thought of killing little kids overseas. They actually laugh about it. They call them "terrorists in training". I'm glad my kids are nowhere near them. I think they're absolutely nuts.

Did you skip over the part where my parents would rather my son die of disease, than to sacrifice some embryos for research?

Please don't "suggest" to me how to handle my parents. You don't know them.
