I like the quote
By Jade

Clip to ScrapBook   
"you need a license to have a dog, to drive a car, hell, you even need a license to catch a fish...but they let any ##### become a parent"
I think it was from the movie Parenthood, but every now and then it makes me laugh
to think about how true it really is. It's sad and I really feel bad for the kids, but some people can't take care of themselves yet alone a child. The kicker was when this woman told me that she had never raised a 9 year old before so I should help her out. Well, I'm 27 years old and I could not even imagine myself with a child right now because I am not financially or mentally ready
for that responsibility. I wish I could have told her that had she not had the kid when she was 16, perhaps she wouldn't be going through all of this now...but I bit my lip and was very pleasant.
