No, but i may be adding another room to the house so my mother can move in here in a few more years, with the timing depending on the care she needs as she ages. Id rather do it myself then rely on someone else. ( i dont trust anyone else to do it right, go figure ). We take care of our own in our family. YMMV in yours.



Well, being as 10 days ago we just buried a 50 year old sister who died from cancer in her own home being cared for by her own family, I know my mileage. Brag about things you have lived through, not what you think that you would do. Put up or shut up.

DId you miss the statement that i wasnt here for points? I could care less honestly how many i have, if any. If you wanted to talk ratings, at least most of mine are not red.. But like i said, i could really care less.



Denial. The first stage of grief.

i said YMMV, not that you did or did not have a close family. Read more closely next time is my suggestion. ( and no, i will not drag in private family issues in here for you as frankly its none of anyone's business )

You kind of already did. But thank you for the condolences, prick.

Nah, i really didnt drag anything of my fmaily in. Just saying that someday mother will get old ( like most everyone else ) and we will handle it internally really doesnt qualify. Now if it was *today*, sure id agree with you.

Condolences? I made no comment either way on your family or what happened and remained neutral. Nice name calling tho. ( who is the child in your world again ? )

Why are you taking it so personally? My comments were exclusively about my take on video. I didn't make the comments to insult you, I merely expressed an opinion.

Why can't we leave it at that? We could, but my first amendment right assures me (for the time being anyway) that I an free to express my opinion. Popular or otherwise.

What, you don't want conversation on the video unless it's about puppy's and kittens and unicorns and rainbows?

I think he has a chip on his shoulder the size of the empire state building and internalizes every comment when they dont agree with his view of the world.

I didn't mean to discount your opinion. It just seemed that it was making an argument against a statement that I never made. I also would rather engage in a conversation with you then try to chase off the trolls, you are a reasonable person. If any annoyance came across in my tone of prose, I assure you that it was not with you or your opinion, nor was there any desire to deny your opinion.

So why do you think there are those who have such strong opinions about things they haven't experienced? (now that the thread has totally derailed) Do you think those opinions have any validity? Are they really opinions, or cries for attention?

Oh, but it does. And if you lower your standards/values just to get along or even be friends, then you are just as bad and are not worthy in the first place. One's core values are not like socks, to be changed on a whim.



You don't have to lower your standards to have friends that don't fit in your ideas.

I don't refrain from talking about politics when I'm with my Democratic friends. We just have awesome, fruitful, challenging conversation.

I have lots of friends that aren't like me. I find your viewpoint strange.

No one cares what you think, postwhore.
