Only works when you respond to it...

I find people make fun of others not out of envy, but to feel superior.

We're all just trying to peek over the edge of the bucket of crabs that we're in. Too bad most people don't know there's only more crabs on the other side

P.s. It's always good to give kids perspective, and not to minimalize anyone's problems, but here's a kid with real problems...

This happens every day in every state in this country. I'm glad they showed pics, because they usually don't and a picture is worth a million words, and in this case the only ones I can think is "Kill Parents"

Again, three questions EVERY CHILD IN THIS COUNTRY NEEDS TO BE ASKED EVERY YEAR!!!!

1. Do you get fed every day?
2. Is anyone hurting you?
3. Do you have a place to sleep and go to the bathroom every day?

If I knew a damn thing about sponsoring a bill or starting a trend that's the one I would pick.

You know Asimov's Three Laws? I'd like "Wishi's Three Quests"

It could be the first test they give kids every year when they start school.


Sorry to hijack yer thread, but this means something to me.

A closet under the stairs.

I'm thinking the " parents " weren't trying to give the kid a fun Harry Potter experience.

We have stairs to the basement...Last night I went to do laundry and I just stared at it and I just can't imagine. They are just slightly bigger than a coffin. I doubt it was lit or carpeted...

If you look close at the pictures, he's got those fine hairs on his arms and neck that models that starve themselves get and he's chewed his fingernails to nubs. I just can't understand. I really can't...

First thing I thought of was how much he looked like Steve Rogers, pre his Captain America physique.

Only, that was CGI, and even then , it looked creepy.

Today it says his biological mother is filing for him, after not seeing him for two years because his stepmom and dad moved and she didn't know where... And that claims had been filed with Child Protective Services but CPS was told that they moved so they never followed up. So basically, they didn't wanna give him back to his bio mom, so they try to kill him?
What a mess....

Not to dismiss from that story Wish, but isn't that a far cry from the bullying and taunting of nerds ?

Perspective. Is all I was saying. My kid has problems, but she knows there are kids that are far far worse off and have survived(a bully is a bully whether it's a peer or a parent). We've already had to deal with a bully too, and she knows not to sit there are take it and I've learned how to piss off people in charge to fix it. I think some of these kids that off themselves because of a little name-calling just need perspective and crisis management skills and if that don't work, MOVE. But they also need to understand there is jerks and schmucks and ignorant ass-hats EVERYWHERE.

IT's a good video. It was good he realized it was a teachable moment and took ten extra seconds to answer her. Nice guy. What else is there to say about it anyway?

Kids in Syria ? Africa ?

Yeah, they have it even worse.

I just thought Will Weaton's reply to a young fans question was worth sharing.

Ok, thanks.

The kids' stepmom tried damage control today saying "she just hadn't seen him with his shirt off in a while and only had him for a few months"

Hard to see a kid when you lock him in a closet, sure...

On another note, I've always wondered why you hang around RWED so much?
Seems a little... pious in there most days. I mean, I put stuff there 'cause I don't want the main page to be "The Wishimay Show" but...
I dunno, do you really like playing devil's advocate that much? Being called a troll every five minutes, I mean where's zat get fun?
Keep doing what you want, I just wondered....

Just bringing the good word to them as need it told, I suppose.

That, plus I don't cater too well to bullies and liars. I see this admin, and those who blindly carry its water, doing plenty a both. I aim to set them straight.

Wait, isn't anyone who blindly follows ANY administration pretty much just a tool? I mean, all people are fallible, politicians doubly so... I guess I just don't see the point. I'd rather pick something I can change and I don't see that ever happing with our political system...
