That was I thought they in jest. I apologize for talking of them as jokes. but maybe some of them were a little too true for me because they remind me of my neighbors. 'parent' is a rather loose term around here these days. most these kids don't really have parents. they have drugged-up selfish people who happen to live in the same house. so then the kids come around, and they are 15 and pregant or got someone pregant and messed up on meth and flunking the 8th grade for the 3rd time... and I just want to send them away somewhere where maybe they will learn something and take care of themselves and not be saying stuff like that when questioned. this used to be a bucolic land... beautiful lil farms and people going to school and staying to farm or going on to college or a trade. now they do meth and die.

anyways... I spologize. the people in those answers are like my people. and I get defensive on their behalf, but not like I don't want to get some sense in them.

stepping off of serious and back to lil horses or something. :)

Along the way, I've met some people who might have actually said some of those things. You see and hear the darndest things as a recruiter! <bb>
