I wonder if my husband will let me print out the email and frame it so I can shove it in peoples' faces every time they try to pay me a compliment and say 'STFU.. the professionals have spoken.. '

| I may have been born in the United States of America, but that doesn't make me 'American' in any way, shape, or form- except on a piece of fucking paper; a technicality I hope to rectify one day by attaining Danish citizenship. There may be things here and there I bitch about regarding Denmark, but I like this place a HELLUVA lot more than I ever liked the US of A and I have NO intentions of ever returning to US soil. I moved to Denmark six years ago, am married to a sweet and silly Dane and we have a five-year-old son together. Oh yes, and I'm 29. I'm the sort who believes violence only belongs in movies, music and video games where real people and real property don't face the consequences. We as humans need to evolve to a point where we can solve our problems without resorting to wars and other violent acts (or at least to the point where we use video games like Counter-Strike to solve them instead of launching real missiles at each other and torturing/shooting each other for a piece of land or a resource.) Am I anti-war? YOU BETCHA! I support some version of a ' Prime Directive,' since I don't think it's acceptable for any one nation (or group of nations) to attempt and force their ideas, culture, and goods upon another. Everyone should have the right to develop at their own pace, decide which system is right for them, and evolve according to their own morals/values/culture/ideals. Anything other than that is wrong. As a mother, I'm sick and tired of other parents who blame schools/the government/video games/movies/music/television because their child is fat/lazy/disrespectful/violent... GET IT THROUGH YOUR SKULLS! It's NOT the job of schools or the government to raise your child for you! It's YOUR job to teach your child healthy eating/exercise habits, to get your kid off his/her ass when he/she wants to sit on it, to teach your kid proper manners and etiquette, etc.. and not just through words, but BY SETTING A POSITIVE EXAMPLE! Furthermore, it's YOUR JOB as a parent to RESEARCH the games, music and television programmes your kid wants to play/listen to/watch and pick ones that are acceptable for your child's age and maturity level. THE INFORMATION IS OUT THERE! In case you couldn't tell, I'm a 'what you see is what you get' kind of person, because I don't give a flying fuck about wrapping myself in a package that's pleasing to the masses. I don't sugar-coat the truth to make it an easier pill to swallow, which can get me in trouble with people sometimes and often has people throwing the terms 'bitch' and 'asshole' in my general direction. And yes, I do have my random moments.. and I'm completely nuts.. so COPE! |
Thank you

She saved my life in a manner of speaking...
When she gave me back "the power to believe"
