This topic "piggybacks" on the priorities topic where we discussed what we gave up as working women and moms, what do you think our children give up...honestly!? What do you think they gain? Also please mention your own mothers status and your experience of a child as a SAH or WOH.

Shoot, I buy candy all the time and don't share it. Do I need to pull my stash of dark chocolate out of my nightstand and go offer some to the neighbor kids?

I think some people think that a debate must include insults and offensive statements. Since friends shouldn't hurl insults and offensive statements, those people would think that friends shouldn't debate.

However, I happen to think a debate can happen without insults and offensive statements, so I think friends *can* debate things. I know that I've had many, many a constructive, enjoyable, debate with friends without anyone being offended and without endangering the friendship.

I did see her ask ONCE on a post if the other poster knew that different people do different things. It could also be like the character that Inigio Montoya was speaking to in the Princess Bride . . ".I don't think it means what it you think it means."

Is there some published acceptable list of "normal" ToT candy? If so, please post the link so that I know what to buy next year. And please go tell that to the people in my hometown who hand out mints with biblical sayings or those that hand out religious pamphlets instead of candy.

wow......i don't think a poster is looking for friends when she choses to start a new thread about kids and being online either.
