If it wasn't for slavery blacks would never have left Africa, so if we hadn't taken them away, they'd still be in Africa probably involved in a war or have AIDS.

Personally even though slavery is sorta wrong, we did a good thing for black people

I asked this in the family category and didn't get any answers, so I'm asking it here.

My mother told me a long time ago that she basically wished that I was never born. Her exact words to me were, "If I could change it, I wouldn't have had you kids." I have two other siblings. Knowing how she feels about the whole situation, it explains a lot about how she treated us as kids. She was never there for us, her boyfriends were more important to her. When I was a kid, if it hadn't been for my grandmother, I may not have had clothes to wear, and food to eat. I'm now 26 years old, and I can't stop hating her for what she said, but I find myself constantly wanting her approval of me, just like when I was kid, and she brushes me off like I don't matter. It really hurts. What the hell is so wrong with me that I can't grow up, and move on? She's never going to change her mind. And I'm always going to be the reason her life never turned out right.

Whose fault is it when you have people living in places adjacent to abandoned, burnt out, boarded up buildings? And then expect the people in that neighborhood to keep up there own property.

made me want to ask if others have ever been turned on or turned off by the way someone said their name, or pronounced it?

My name is often mispronounced and it took until the last few years before I would correct people on the pronumciation. My exhusband said it in a way that I absolutely hated and thought it was funny, so of course he did it all the time. Then I had a boyfriend who, when he said my name, he made it so beautiful and deep that I melted everytime I heard it. I didn't like my name until then....now, lol, I really pay attention to the way it is said....praticularly in intimate situations.....

Anyone else have similar experiences? See, my name is Audra...people always say Audrey, Andrea.....its been a pain. Now I like it, but I am pretty firm on people pronouncing it correctly.

lol, this is the best category I could come up with as the question only refers to the song...its def not going under music!

Since this is supposed to be the season of giving, I thought I would ask what one act you have done for someone else in need (emotionally, financially, whatever). I realize many people give their lives to others, parents of handicapped children, foster parents, etc., but I want to know what those not faced with day to day selflessness have done for someone else. I would be grateful if you would also mention your political affilitation, but it is not necessary.

Since Alcoholics Anonymous is a religion, it seems to me it would be a direct violation.

How does a US citizen challenge such a violation, and stop it from happening to other "newcomers"?

Working for social services and can't take it anymore. I am so sick of denying hard working single/widowed parents help because they make 12 dollars a month too much. These people have always worked , contribute to society and struggle to pay bills and care for their children , but are denied help with food, electric etc.
When on the other hand there are those that can milk the system. Some are caught , most or not. We have women that say they don't live with the daddy, don't work , get their rent paid, food stamps etc but the daddy lives with them and uses his parents address , they pay child support , the check goes back to the mother, she gets everything free, gets the child support back and daddys paycheck is all theirs to do what they want. I am biting my tougue everyday not to go off on people that you know are cheating. It's driving me crazy!!!!!

I am getting somewere in my life, and my alcohollic landlord can't stand it. I have gotten this at times from family members. I just like to know your survival stratagy in this.

I've known a few lesbians and bisexuals in my life. More than once, the bisexual girls have a belief that everyone's bi; and when I would tell them that I'm as straight as a board, all they would say is "well, u haven't been exposed to girls." The lesbian said that due to my culture, I'm probably straight. Implying that since that's all I was exposed to, and allowed to express; I must be straight...since I don't know anything else. They said, ok, here's a test. "Do u think girls are more attractive than males? Do u think some are hot?" I answered yes to both. They said I was bi because I answered yes to both questions. I assured them that I don't want relations with girls, I just like the way a girl's body looks more than I guy's. But they still maintain that I'm bi and don't know it, just because I admire the female body and think females look better than males as human life forms. In this society of supposesd tolerance, why can't one just admire another's body w/o it taking on a
