Comments & Feedback
Hello Joe, thanks for adding me to friends list.
Mrs. Palin is acting on family values. When your family lets you down; you forgive and love them anyway. You move on and make the best of the situation. Your reward is a wonderful new human being whom you fall in love with and cherish.
I know, been there and done that and all I can say is I hug my grandchild and am so thankful many times over that abortion was not an option. I look at my child and marvel at the wonderful differences being a parent has made. They in it's life. They have motivation to do well, to provide for a child to grow up and the love and happiness they take in the child is wonderful to behold. But it does take the whole family system to pull together and be supportive of moth parent and child.
It is not easy but the rewards are fantastic!
you should get a life, rules!!!! who are you kidding, the right, the left, the middle, thay ALL have family problems including me and you.
