Does anybody find this disturbing also?

  • Posted on March 7, 2011 at 1:21 pm

My 18 year old daughter graduates HS and immediately gets involved with a 30 year old man, moves in with him after 3 months and now is pregnant with his child. The man has had previous felony drug charges and drug addiction problems and is clean now. They both work, but I cant help to wonder why in the world would this guy now 31 want to date a teenager? Anybody please voice your thoughts on this.

help stop my 25 yr old daughter from stripping at club, I fear she’s also prostituting?

  • Posted on January 14, 2011 at 1:21 pm

She has been away from me for sometime. Now she’s home and I’ve found out that she works as a stripper at a nearby strip club. I’m afraid she may be an escort/prostitute as well. She’s out with a different guy almost each night. She is with me because she got evicted from another apartment. I have tried to tell her that stripping has gotten her nowhere. She can’t even hold housing for herself. She has also admitted to cocaine use. She’s too old for me to punish. How can I help her see how wrong it is for her to exploit herself. She laughs at a $300/wk regular job. Child Protection took her 4 yr old son 8 months ago because she sleeps till 1:00 p.m. and the child was unsupervised all the time. She says she loves him and want him back, but she won’t give up the cause of her problems: drugs, alcohol, stripping and whatever else she may be doing. Any advice?

Cliched or not – what are you views on these following events? Can you also offer me some?

  • Posted on October 23, 2010 at 4:23 pm

There’s a story I’m working on as a gift for my sister (she’s 14) and I’ve been doing a lot of brainstorming for arcs or events that could happen in the tale.Most of my inspiration, especially the setting and scene of the story comes from the beautiful islands in Monkey Island Three (actually most of the story was inspired by the beauty of backdrops).

Well at any rate I want to work on a very special and unique gift for my sister, and since she’s always been a fan of my tales I wanted to write a story just for her. She’s a fan of fantasy, humor, sometimes intense drama (provided it’s not cheesy or cliche) and adventure so it’s a fun project to work on. She also isn’t a fan cliches so I’d like your thoughts on the following events I’ve come up with. I’d like to know if I should keep them, change them or ditch them. If I should ditch them could you help me by offering your own ideas? I want to give her something she’ll really love and enjoy reading.

The story is about a girl who gets her hands on a talisman that can transport her to a beautiful city where adventure is on every corner. Her dull and ordinary life (which she perfectly likes) goes head over heels when she finds herself knee deep in a bunch of events in the other world that puts her in a bunch of situations that is out of her comfort zone.

Some events that happen in the story:
1. The heroine is forced to masquerade as a man (a very convincing act as she has participated in a lot of plays) who courts a rich man’s daughter (a very foolish and naive girl) who has fallen for the heroine’s charms. She’s put in a very uncomfortable situation especially when the crew decide that she can get info they can use to blackmail her father with.
**At the same time her alter ego ends up being rivals with the town’s tomcat who is also after the rich girl. I was thinking this would lead her to be the victim of plenty of pranks, public humilation feats and one day a duel to prove who is more worthy for the girl’s affections.

2. The heroine ends up catching the attention of a young Duke, who is meant to be vying for the affections of an equally young Queen (her mother forces the responsibility upon her while on her deathbed). However neither one have any interest in the other; the Queen is in love with her childhood friend while the Duke is a man of knowledge, intelligence, charm and has a true joie de vivre. He has no interest in love or politics but understand that the importance of this union. He throws all of his promises out the window though when the heroine unintentionally charms him with her sarcasm, her sense of humour and her knack for being with kids. They don’t end up together though; he ends up dying, ironically enough, when he has the courage and confidence to profess his feelings for her as he is so certain nothing can go wrong. She is saddened by his death but not heartbroken.

3. The wealthy man is eager to accumulate more wealth and power so he hears of this new and wonderous drug in the form of chocolate. One small piece is all it takes to drive a person to throes of ecstasy, so it is something much sought after. I was thinking that the chocolate starts causing some problems in town which would culminate eventually into all out anarchy on the streets. It sounds a bit far-fetched though, but that’s because I have writer’s block.

I’d like some more ideas to make the story go and to keep it interesting since my sister mainly likes the action and plot parts of books (it’s what she ever really focuses on and says she can never get enough of).

Does anyone have any more ideas please?
Thanks for the tip mossface. I’m pretty undecided about the third part myself but I’m just stuck.

I need ideas, good or bad. Any ideas of your own you can share?

Thanks so much for your kind words. I really hope my sister loves it!
Thanks heaps Daniel! I was thinking of having a rival set out to destroy the duke and that seems like a nice twist to it.

Hidden: so what would be your suggestions then? What could I do to make it sounds less cliche as you say since I’m looking for ideas :)

Are you also confused?

  • Posted on October 10, 2010 at 5:22 am

I’m a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight…..

1. If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents,
you’re ‘exotic, different.’

– Grow up in Alaska eating moose burgers, you’re a quintessential
American story.

2. If your name is Barack you’re a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.

– Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you’re a maverick.

3. Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.

– Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you’re well
grounded.

4. If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become
the first black President of the Harvard Law Review, create a
voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters, spend
12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a
State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people,
become chairman of the state Senate’s Health and Human
Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate
representing a state of 13 million people while sponsoring 131
bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public
Works and Veteran’s Affairs committees, you don’t have any real
leadership experience.

– If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city
council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000
people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000
people, then you’re qualified to become the country’s second
highest ranking executive.

5. If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while
raising 2 beautiful daughters, all within Protestant churches,
you’re not a real Christian.

– If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your
disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you’re a
Christian.

6. If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education,
including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber
of society.

– If, while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with
no other option in sex education in your state’s school system
while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant, you’re very
responsible.

7. If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position
in a prestigious law firm to work for the betterment of her inner
city community, then gave that up to raise a family, your
family’s values don’t represent America’s.

– If you’re husband is nicknamed ‘First Dude’, with at least one
DWI conviction and no college education, who didn’t register to
vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that
advocated the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is
extremely admirable.
