This show is about 6-year old girls competing in beauty pageants. These girls are adorable w/o all the "fixing up" their moms are doing to them. But, I'm watching and the moms are doing everything from spray-tanning them to giving them "false teeth" to cover up the gaps in their teeth from loosing teeth. After the winners are announced, one little girl asks her mom "Am I number one?" That just broke my heart. I just thought "Can you not show your child how special she is w/o giving her a crown??"

I don't agree with beauty pageants. I really don't understand why parents want to do this to their children. I have a 2 year old that, from the day she was born, people have just made a fuss over her and said she looks like a porcelain doll. I know she's a beautiful girl- and I want her to know she's pretty. But I don't want that to be the focus.

Is it parents (moms, especially) trying to make up for something they think they lack? What is it that makes parents do this??

Her real IQ is now known to be between 167 and 186. Yet she keeps throwing around the fictional 228 which she scored one time long ago during the early and unsophisticated days of IQ testing.

Another curiousity: Why did the Guinness Book of Records list her iq (186) as the highest when everyone knows there are child prodigies who have scored much higher than that? I wonder if it wasn't some kind of feminist thing.

By the way, I once sent similar questions to her underserved column and, as I expected, there was no reply. Go figure.

Don't you hate it when your mom tells you to go to sleep because she is "entertaining" her gentlemen friends and she doesn't want them to know you're in the basement? I keep telling her, "MUMMY, I'M 30 years old. I know how to be quiet" but she won't listen to me. Anyway, I have to go to bed in 25 minutes or she'll lock me in the soundproofed closet again.

Does anyone else have this problem?

With love in Christ.

The council's make you pick up dogs poo!! not drop litter, although I see people do it!! however its still OK for youths to kick a leather football about in green area's supposedly for our pleasure? running amuck over other people's gardens,damaging plants, getting a mouthfull of abuse if you say something!! This is not pre war Britain anymore, the streets are not the same, and im sure I can't be the only one who sick to death of it!! Iv heard "they have to play somwhere" well we have two area's for football in two minute walks, but do they go there, hardly, as long as they don't have to walk, its easier for mom, or dad, they can watch the telly while other people have to put up with there ofsprings nuicance!! If there was a ballot to ban or not how would you vote, im curious.

I have heard first hand from a Catholic priest who said the Virgin Mary was without sin. Is this what other Catholics believe? And what Scriptural evidence is there for this? Also, why do Catholics revere her?She was just another christian like you or me. GOD alone deserves glory, it seems we should revere Him and Him alone.

I bought a used car from a dealership about 8 weeks ago. After having it 4 and a half weeks the timing chain broke blowing the engine. I have a 24 month 24000 mile warranty, which wont cover it because after market headers where put on the car before i bought it and they cant prove i didnt do it. So the dealership is avoiding me and my phone calls The car has been in the shop for almost a month and I'm stuck. What the hell do I do?
