I was rasied in a horribly abusive home. My father was extremley abusive emotionally & phycially to both myself and two sisters. I left home at 16 and lived in a car for two years, it was that bad. That was years ago and each of us survived. We each have scares but have all turned out to be constructive healthy adults...how I don't really know. Our father has recently contacted us and wants to see us...he's older now and wants a relationship with us. My sisters want nothing to do with him and refuse to even talk about the possibilty. I respect and honor their views (they own the pain not me). I have a deep need to want to forgive..not forget but to forgive. I want to become willing to be willing to forgive, in fact I want to run to it. I don't feel anger or hate...I want the dark cloud and the missing piece in my heart to be healed.
I want to offer him forgiveness 100% My sisters say I'm crazy.

Am I too willing...what's your thoughts please?

Suppose it's hereditary--is it ethical to have children knowing that they could possible suffer intense mental anguish throughout their lives? Also, wouldn't it be unethical to expose a child to the stressful and confusing environment that goes along with a parent having a mental illness?

I'm not completely sure how to phrase my question. Considering the fact that right now developed nations (at least the U.S.) are using resources quicker than they can be replaced, are there any economic theories or ideas on how to scale down an economy into balance with natural resources in order to create a sustainable.... natural... environment? Is there an ideal birth rate?

Please include names, textbooks, or any other source of information so I can read about whatever you say in more depth.

Let me know if my question isn't clearly stated...

at this point in your life now would you say it is fate everything from the person your with to where you live to your job or is it the choices you made along the way cause and affect.If it is by choice why can't you always see the affect of the choice you made ahead of time.

are wearing the wrong BRA???. HellooooOOO0000Ooooo?

Why do you do that?
When do you think it appropiate to purchase the correct and right Bra?
In that light, perhaps isn't That the reason the puppies feel confined and like to be released after a long day all cooped up?

And last, Being that we have establish their identity as puppies and being they do not speak or make a noise,

(although sometimes they appear elidgeable to bark) but still no sound,
Could we in the future with your permission refer to them as,
The Hush Puppies? Just another great name to identify the most Beautiful Globes. .

It seems every-where you go people are doing things that seem pleasurable to me and expecting sponsorship eg. cycling across America (and I'm not talking about Jane Tomlinson) Surely it is about suffering putting yourself through something to actually feel like you've earnt the money like holding your breath for five minutes.

I just connect with non American women better it seems, they have all the qualities that men want in a wife Loyal, beeautiful, hardworking, aprreciative, caring, ect. Plus many of them are trying to leave ecomically depressed countries and giving them a new life in America will be much better for them. And no I don't want a submissive women or a sex slave, I have always treated women great in all my relationships and share all the responsibilities with her. I'm 6'2, 205, dark hair and green eyes. I'm also in very good shape, I work out four times a week, I'm college educated, I have a very good job, and I don't cheat at all. A women from Asia or South America would be ideal for me I think. So wha does everyone think.

My little brother who is 10 years old tends to become violent when he is furious or offended. Everytime he does, he cries and screams and wails, and he is always in the need to find something to destroy, or some way to hurt the person who made him angry. Is there a syndrome for that? How to I deal with this problem? I'm only 14 years old.

When I get angry, I never use violence unless violence is used upon me. I only use my voice.

This has always pondered my mind at times. I have heard yawning is a sign of lack of oxygen, but how does that effect someone else to yawn at times? Is it merely the power of suggestion? from one brain to another? and there again is another question.
