  Being 15 years old vacation pioneering with 3 girl friends. The older male pioneer left us girls at a park no where near a phone (before Cell phones) and we were miles from home and had to walk at least a mile to call our moms. Not Cool and was dangerous even in the 60s known druggie Park.

  Implications of gay marriage ruling

  by Rattigan350 in

  1. social
  2. current

  while many think that the ruling is good for the gays and their response is: how does that affect your marriage; then on the other side the religious people cry god and sinners.

  but both are missing the forest through the trees.. the problem with the ruling is that which is discussed here so many times.

  five unelected federal officials decided on policy for the whole country, running roughshod over every democratic principle.

  I usually don't comment on such controversial subjects this one affects me. My son is a same sex marriage. It hasn't hurt my 49 year marriage in any way. It gives my boys many marriage rights the rest of the world enjoy.

  this may sound insane but i literally have blood on my hands as i have just come home from a counselling session that went wrong...i wanted to collate all that has happened and record it...hospital policy is against it.

  i said "what am i alive for then if not to tell the truth" she tut tutted and i walked out sadly in despair.. when i got to the ground floor there was a young girl screaming her head off.

  she was afraid, that is all she was...........afraid.

  Juliette you just warmed my heart sometimes I start doubting how many good people there are in this world. Many young people go thru life feeling alone and unloved. You saved a life today. I love you and have so much respect for you.

  Have your friend meet in a nuetral place first. It is best to reconnect in a restaraunt or such and see how you feel and she feels before you make a decision. Good luck Kate. Take care of your mental health first.
