I want to pass on something to you. I don't know where you all stand on the matter, and it is a very sensitive subject to bring up to anyone. But you know that law that was passed the other day? The one about late-term partial birth abortion? Did you know that this new law doesn't have an exception for if the mother's life is in jeopardy? I was shocked when I heard that, because I have a friend who kept trying to have a baby, but her pregnancies almost killed her (2 of them in a row), and they had to abandon ship and abort. They were very sad about losing their babies, but she almost died, and there was no other option. Well, now she's still here and they are adopting an orphan from Guatamala. I couldn't imagine if she would have lost her life, and her husband would have become a young widower. The baby in Guatamala would probably not have gotten a chance at getting a home, because she is the one flying out to adopt it! Well, there is a petition going around to try to protect moms from being sacrificed needlessly. I know it's rare, but it happens. When it does, I'd like to believe that the mom gets to live on. This new law gives no consideration for an adult human life, and is only there to mix church and state for votes. Obviously, Bush hates women and loves to kill people in other countries. He obviously doesn't give a rat's ass about the sanctity of life. This country is getting WAY TOO controlling. Like I said, I don't know where you stand on the subject, but everyone I've talked to is really worried about where our government is going with a law that is willing to sacrifice both mother and baby for a religious cause. You know, if the mom dies, the baby will die anyway. So the new law doesn't seem too logical to me. They are going for 50,000 signatures. This isn't a pro-life or pro-choice issue here. I know that many women wouldn't be alive today if it weren't for the option to abort a fetus that was killing her. This new law sets it up so that BOTH get to die. After all, how does a fetus live inside of a dead mother? It doesn't! All I have to say is, these men who signed this into law better hope their wives or daughters don't have pregnancy complications in late-term. Oh wait, I forgot. They have money, so they will just fly out of the country to have their lives saved while poor women get to suffer for the cause. The procedure that was just banned happens to be the safest way to abort a complicated late-term pregnancy. It is funny that the other procedure is much more dangerous for the woman, but that one was left legal. Obviously, this law was set in place to kill women. No one uses this procedure as birth control to get rid of unwanted pregnancies. It is ALWAYS used as am emergency way to save a woman having complications. If the fetus isn't old enough to live outside of the womb, AND the mother is very ill and could die, the new law says they both have to go!!! As I understand it, the petition is our first line of defense against this horrible attack on women and their doctors. Imagine being a OB/GYN, and having to tell your very sick patient that she will probably die, and you know that you could save her with a procedure that only takes a few minutes, but you can't because you will go to prison. Here ya go, and you can sign it even if you are a citizen of another country! http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/677700153?z00m=9426090<l=1177186677 And I don't want to hear anything from anyone who thinks mothers should sacrifice themselves for a fetus. That is a very strange, twisted, non-logical way to think. I would never think any of you in here would go that route anyway, but just in case....no one else wants to hear about Bush being the voice of heavenly angels, lmao. Thoughts like that come from nutjobs, IMHO. Take care all!

Ah yes, but that is why I'm here to ask about the recommended programs.

When is it time to tell your adult children get the Blank out?
by avidbiblereader into me there is a definite difference in my generation and the one coming after me, when i graduated you basically had three choices.
military, college or a fulltime job which meant more than 40 and you were expected to grow up, today kids are seen as postponing this for years, it reminds me of the proverbs 29:21 kjv says .
21 he that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.. when is it time to push the little birds from the nest and tell them to flap real hard?.

Wow, I'm sorry about your kid!
I was a BARELY 18 year old chick when I took off from my over-controlling parents' house. They would have loved to keep me living there until I died of old age, but I couldn't stand their rules anymore. So, I graduated trade school at 17 (teacher didn't know I was underage. Took the entire course, and then he's like, "you're only 17?" I'm in trouble, don't tell anyone and hold off on the final exam until you turn 18), turned 18, found an apartment, and fled. The class I took wasn't for a job that I liked, in particular. It was a job I knew I could do with the pay I knew would take care of me, and I even had extra to save. This was methodically planned out when I was 15, and I carried it out to a T, while counting down the days until I'd turn 18.
The best thing they ever did for me was purchased my car in cash for me. I've never paid one car note in my life, because Hondas are cheap and last forever.
The other thing they did was imposed lots of petty rules and never allowed me privacy.
Could you tamper with his private life until he hates you? That would be a great way to make him want to leave. You see how I planned out my entire escape route by age 15? If you torture him, he will start planning ways to get the hell out!
Go through his room. Confiscate his porn and CDs. Take pictures/posters/ANYTHING you can find. Say it is demonic and throw it all away. If his comforter is blue, toss it and say that the color blue is demonized. If his bedsheets are grey, confiscate those and say that the color grey is demonized. Anything you can find that will nip at his patience, call it demonic and throw it away. He will leave on his own!
EDITED: He won't ever return if you do it this way. He will have nightmares for years to come!

Thanks for the links! I was checking out that first one earlier when I was browsing google for ideas. I was told that when you use a program, you come across lots of glitches, making it worthless. Is this true? With all the designers out there, throwing their web ads at you to buy their design, you'd think you could find what they were using to make them! Again, maybe that's the whole point, lol.

So you are recommending Corel?
It is actually going to be a very simple design. It just needs to be clean, and preferrably print-ready.

Well, I know you didn't mean any offense by it. But believe it or not, I am a very artistic person and I would do a hell of a good job designing it. In fact, I have had a designer give me a few examples of their work and I was not impressed at all.
I'm not looking for someone to design it. I just need advice on how to get my ideas onto a computer. I have faith in myself, and nothing creative that I do ever sucks. I rock.
