    Gambling is an evil thing

    I'm going the first weekend in May to a local casino for a spa weekend- I am bringing with me 1,000 in cash- just what I am comfortable losing- if/when I lose that then I am done- I leave my ATM card home so no dipping into that if I run out LOL.

    An adult threatened my 6 year old

    Jury Duty

    I have never heard of anyone getting fined but I guess it is possible, just don't personally know anyone. If they made it easier to work around times that people are available it would make it much easier and more likely to do it- I work for a charity and we have certain times that we are...

    How much autonomy should an 18 year old home from college have?

    Should I force my kids to go to Disney?
