Quote Of The Week From My Kid

If you bump me back to start again I’m gonna pound your face!”

-Last night this is what my 6-yr-old said to me as we were playing Sorry! on game night. Yes, I was a bit shocked. But he was laughing as he said it, so it was hard to take it serious. It was actually quite hilarious. Still, I had to let him know this isn’t exactly how you should talk to your parents, or anyone for that matter.

So did I bump him back to start? Let’s just say, my face doesn’t hurt.

Quote of the Week on Children

“We live in a society today where these children can be wanted children. Even if you don’t want to keep this child after you’ve had it, there’s plenty of young couples out there, that want children.”

-I know it’s Friday, but I thought this quote was appropriate considering my post earlier this week “Is Pro-Choice Ever Pro-Death?” These are words from Norma McCorvey. She once used the alias Jane Roe in the landmark court case Roe v. Wade, regarding abortion. She has since had many regrets. I know it’s an uncomfortable subject, but it is worth thinking about considering some recent statistics from the New York City Health Department.

“Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.”
