Michael Jackson cries after celebrating first christmas

i know you all are tired of hearing about michael jackson but after seeing this video, i was reminded of the guilt that lingers after the leaving the jw religion.

as i understand it, his primary reason for leaving was because latoya was df'd and he didn't like having to chose between religion and family.

sounds familiar?.

That video made me want to laugh and cry at the same time. I do hope he got over the guilt and just enjoyed all the holidays (christmas included) for what they are... FUN!

Some people don't teach their children manners. Grrr.

i had an hour to kill before picking julian up at a birthday party, last friday.

so, i decided to go relax at the library.

"when i was a child, we gave up our chairs for adults.

I think there's a few people missing the whole point here. It was a public library, meaning it's there for everyone to use, not just a few and by the sounds of it, enough seating for twice as many people as there was (children included). It's not rude to walk into a public area and tell other people they can't use while you're there? FHN never asked anyone to give up their seat and stand or sit on the floor, just a slight re-arrangement so she could use the area as well.

How do I know which one of my friends on facebook is looking at my fb page?

do you know the answer??

?.

In my case, I just look and see who's online. Since all they do is browse my page, I know they're looking at my page whenever they're on.

What if they have their status set to show they're always offline?

Isn't it sad Brinjen that the behavior of that child is held as exceptional rather than standard?

Yep. Kids just aren't taught to respect. I see a lot of examples where the child isn't shown any respect or manners too... and children learn not only by example of how they see others being treated, but also how they themselves are treated.

One day a little guy came up and asked us a question, we answered, he said Thank You. I swear myself and the other girl looked at each other with jaws dropped. We had to commend the lad on his good manners, it's so rare.

I had a similar jaw dropping experience a couple of weeks ago leaving a fast food restaurant. A boy who looked around the age of 7 was coming in with his family as I was going out. The boy held the door open for me. I thanked him to which he replied with "your welcome" and gave me the cutest smile. So very rare nowadays.

Jackson never molested his kids or the kid from "Home alone" and "Webster" so not a pedophile!

by Witness 007 in

his kid friends {now adults} who defended him include culkin from "home alone"...the kid from "webster"...godfather to his kids, the kid from the movie "oliver.

" his own kids, so.....can pedophiles switch it on and off....out of thousand's of kids he met why didn't he molest more including his own kids..

brinjen

That's just it. Michael Jackson must be guilty because of the payouts but at the same time theres OJ's aquittal. So by that logic it wouldn't really have mattered if MJ had fought the allegations in court, because OJ got let off...

What about the child psychologist who was asked by the prosecutors in the 05 case to interview the second victim and didn't believe the child has been molested at all? Not to mention all the other kids who said MJ never touched them.
