Coming in a bit late on this one, but I think humans should treat each other with respect and kindness - regardless of gender. I also think that this respect and kindness should be extended to the other creatures with whom we share the planet. After all, it's been said that one can tell how civilized a culture is by how it treats its animals.<br />

On another note: Like 1GreatLady, Marge, and Wylde and likely many others here on TBD, I grew up in an alcoholic and wildly dysfunctional family. When…

On another note: Like 1GreatLady, Marge, and Wylde and likely many others here on TBD, I grew up in an alcoholic and wildly dysfunctional family. When things were great, they were REALLY great, but when things were bad, well, they were an Ingmar Bergman movie. Always had to act normal to the outside world when things were awful inside the home and inside me. When I was young, I swore I'd never treat anyone the way my parents treated each other and my brother and me. I probably had no respect for myself as a young adult, but I always treated others nicely.<br />

As an 40+ woman, I now understand what it means to respect yourself and the world around you. You'll never respect anything until you respect yourself. Years of therapy and relationship disasters, but I think I've finally got it. :) Women should treat men with r…tag:teebeedee.ning.com,2009-09-02:1991841:Comment:3268612009-09-02T04:35:00.574ZWayne L.

Women should treat men with respect and expect the same treatment in return. Larry, I hope you don't mind if I change the wording a wee bit. The truth is, when we speak of someone as being mine or theirs, then we do convey a sense of ownership. While not really what most people really want to say, or even mean, which is what I believe Wanda the Faye means to say. Yet, I know people who are deeply in like or love they will say things like <i>Mine</i> in order to keep others at bay, or perhaps to…

And now that I've stated the obvious, which is that one does not own the other, but merely share time with each other----until they don't any longer.

Marjorie, your son-in-law is a prime example that kids can become fine adults, even when raised in a dysfunctional home. I also believe that he's an exception to the rule. One's upbringing sure has a lot of influence on what kind of man or woman they become.<br />

Kudos to your son-in-law, 1GL and Wylde for overcoming.

Maggie, this is from recent experience and it just dawned on me. We all know tv has a huge influence on children, more often than not it's negative. We kept our 6 year old granddaughter (Nikki) last weekend. There's a show on Nickelodean called "i Carly" which Nikki insisted on watching. There were several episodes on in a row. I was happy because it kept Nikki out of my hair, which is the way most parents feel. Maybe the 3rd or 4th episode I sat and caught a glimpse of this show. Carly is a…

We kept our 6 year old granddaughter (Nikki) last weekend. There's a show on Nickelodean called "i Carly" which Nikki insisted on watching. There were several episodes on in a row. I was happy because it kept Nikki out of my hair, which is the way most parents feel. Maybe the 3rd or 4th episode I sat and caught a glimpse of this show. Carly is a teenaged girl. She has a little wise-assed girlfriend with the most disrespectful, smart-alecky tone in her voice I've ever seen. Nikki was repeating everything this little b.... said, and with the same tone.<br />
<br />
It's now very clear to my wife and I where Nikki got her attitude. We'll see her and her mom and dad tomorrow. Her dad already prohibits her from watching Spongebob. I don't think he's seen "Carly" yet. We'll fill him in, I don't think she'll be watching Carly again. tOO MANY OF MY POSTS ARE NOT…tag:teebeedee.ning.com,2009-08-23:1991841:Comment:2837262009-08-23T02:40:23.589Zlarry kremishttp://teebeedee.ning.com/profile/larrykremis
