My point is that I do know what i am talking about and your opinion that I do not, does not mean anything. Especially when you do not see a bunch of posts directed to me saying huh? what does that mean? I don't get it? You do not make any sense, or you are not clear.
PS Blabbering on would be what one does when they do not know what they are talking about, so yes that is what we are discussing.
Um, no.
She's saying if you choose to go into the military, you should do so expecting to be deployed. Your choice is whether or not to join the military. Opting for it is opting for deployment. If you don't want to be deployed, don't join the military.
The same is for having intercourse. If you choose to do so, your are opting to deal with all the consequences that come with that choice (including pregnancy). You don't want the consequences, forego intercourse.
The same for overspending with credit. You use your charge card too much, you are opting to deal with the consequences at the end of the month when the bill comes due. You don't want the consequences, don't use the card.
It's about taking personal responsibility for your actions. Hopefully people who opt to have relations and end up pregnant WANT to have the child. Hopefully people who opt to join the military and get deployed actually WANTED to serve in that capacity. Hopefully people who use credit cards can pay the balances off at the end of the month.
So it could be bad or good - either way it's your own doing.

Do you know it means to be dyslexic?
Not Sabina, but she already referred to it as a learning disability so here's the definition from Wikipedia. Maybe you should tell us if you are talking about some other dyslexia.
Dyslexia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dyslexia
Developmental dyslexia is a said to be a condition or learning disability which causes difficulty with reading and writing.
Its standard definition is a difficulty in reading and writing in spite of normal development of intelligence, cognitive and sensory abilities.
The word "dyslexia" comes from the Greek words ???- dys- ("difficulty with") and ????? lexis ("words" or "lexicon"). People are often identified as dyslexic when their reading or writing problems cannot be explained by a lack of intellectual ability, inadequate instruction, or sensory problems such as poor eyesight.
The term dyslexia is also sometimes used to refer to the loss of reading ability following brain damage. This form of dyslexia is more often referred to as either acquired dyslexia or "Alexia". Dyslexia primarily impacts reading and writing abilities; however, other difficulties have been reported including deficits in processing spoken language as well as non-language difficulties.
Dyslexia is not limited to reversing the order of letters in reading or writing. Nor is it a visual perception deficit that involves reading letters or words backwards or upside down, as is often implied in popular culture.
Researchers have claimed that it is a brain-based condition with biochemical and genetic markers. Others have questioned whether dyslexia is no more than a mythological construct and argue that researchers that rely on the concept fail to recognize neurodiversity. Its diagnostic status remains highly debated in both medicine and the social sciences .

He's a computer geek. He has to incorporate lots of reading in his job. And he reads quite a bit for pleasure too.

Well goody gumdrops. I haven't once stated he was cured (he can't be; dyslexia is incurable); I've stated he was taught to deal with his dyslexia and have stated that it currently doesn't post a problem.

Not all dyslexics have above average IQs.

I'm glad you want to turn this into a positive. We should all be such advocates for our children. Hwoever, I don't think I'd ever be THRILLED if my child had a learning disability.
