the relationship is that the you are the child's rich older cousin and the eelderly couple is the girl's grandparents. The grandparents are taking care of the girl because her parents have died. They are asking you because they are dying.

why is it people in high paid selfish jobs get so much more respect and praise in life, than people with lower paid, thoughtful jobs? Is it really such a great human trait to be selfish
I mean what is more valued working for an insurance company, or helping old people live a quality of life. For most people the first one seems to be more appealing. Yet the latter a lot more essential. An insurance company can conn you out of thousands of pounds, and a carer could be a lifeline for someone. Seeing someone in a suit demands respect? Makes them a better person??
Will people ever get their priorities right???

I feel like I'm a football player/baseball player and my picture is flashed up with people judging me by my height, weight, age, profession, and accomplishments ... without even saying "Hi, how are you" ...

Is this all that really matters in Western societies???

Can people who embrace mythology (Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, etc., etc) ever truly have an open mind at the same time? Wont they be held back by dogma? Can someone who has chosen to believe that "god" chose a woman to give birth to his son or that millions of animals fit on a little boat, that a whale swallowed a man, he survived, then went on to save a plave called Ninevah, or that a prophet fell from the sky and had a series of revelations on the way down think rationally in other areas of their life? Has this been a problem that has prevented rational thought throughout history?

I called welfare recepients parasites in another post and someone wrotee me a PM quesioning that.

Here are the Definitions:
1, An organism that grows, feeds, and is sheltered on or in a different organism while contributing nothing to the survival of its host.
2, One who habitually takes advantage of the generosity of others without making any useful return.

I know 1000s of welfare recipients.
Half of them are outright scumbags: they keep having baby after baby; do work under the table; paddle drugs; commit adultary and prostrituition; abuse medicaid benefits to the max; breed next generation of parasites and keep thier own children from having any future and find ways to make their own children 'disabled'.
Some are nice but still could work and chose not to because they can beat the system, they still are burden on you and me.
Very rarely does a person living on public assistance really need it.

So I ask all:do you think most welfare recepients are parasites or not?

I know someone who was molested as a child, and it was reported and all, they have had treatment for the last 25 yrs (on and off for the last 10 or so). She says that she has never gotten over the molestation, and that is why she can't function in society (ie hold a job, refrain from drug use, pay bills, etc). She also has a tendency to not see reality as others do, claiming that things aren't her fault. Is this behavior typical? She seems to think that I'm cold toward the situation, because as I have guardianship of her child until she can get her life together, I do expect her to get a job, and work toward getting her child back, instead of claiming that it's my fault that her life is the way it is. If I truly am being mean telling her to get more counseling to get over it, and to get a job, a car, an apartment, etc. please let me know, because from where I am, it doesn't seem so unreasonable to expect these things.
