I belief there were two children with a first husband and one with a second husband now deceased. Even if there were a number of sperm donors is that relevant to the fact that four children have lost a mother.
I’m not even going to bother to click on that link. As someone who knows someone who was conceived through artificial insemination and who knows how much that person was wanted and is still wanted and loved, even at the age of 25, I don’t need to know anything else.
Perhaps the poor woman who died was trying to ensure that her children would have a decent country to grow up in? You know the sort of thing, laws that apply to everyone, a proud constitution that survived for hundreds of years but is now on the verge of collapse? Free speech and a free press?
I am consigning Esther and Nikolaos to my ignore box. My life is too short and too precious to read any more.
Lolwut? I've literally not posted anything here since April 3rd. This is the problem with emotionalism, political biases and being 'locked' in an extremely narrow echo chamber without being exposed to opposing views, people completely lose any sense of perspective on things.
Note from Admin: Whilst it is understood that events around the world are currently extremely volatile and in turn human nature dictates that we will want to discuss (and to some degree debate) things, the forum also has rules that are specific to anything that could be construed as a personal or 'ad-hominem' attack: 10. NO FLAMING OR AD HOMINEM ATTACKS:: No member is allowed to make personal attacks on any other member or of the Admin Team. Criticise ideas, not people. Personal attacks are defined as Personal, Racial, Ethnic, and/or Gender based insults, slurs, or derisive comments. This includes spite reporting or other similar forms of harassment via private messages or anything similar. 12. PEACE AND HARMONY OF THE BOARD will not be disrupted. Definition of this will be determined on a case by case basis by the Admin staff. This also includes issues that tend to be inflammatory to other members such as cats, foxes, 'vermin' and means of deterring, disposing of same. Posts or threads referring to inhumane or other objectionable means of dealing with any pets or wildlife will be summarily dealt with by the Admin Team and may incur penalties to the poster. There have been posts in this thread that have resulted in reports to the Admin team, some of which have resulted in formal action, others in less formal action - for clarity, we take no joy in having to take ANY course of action. The Admin team consider ALL reports and reach a consensus as to what action is appropriate (no less than three out of the five must agree) and that decision is final. This action could mean the closure of this thread and members being suspended or banned and we sincerely hope it doesn't come to that. Please bear this in mind when posting and remember... challenge/criticise ideas and situations, NOT other members.
Do you research any of your comments? She was previously married to a man called Timmy Ray Macklin who died in 2023, not that any of this matters to the grieving families and children.
Thank you, Admin Team, for clarification. We really shouldn't need it, being grown-ups, but clearly there are times when the urge to tell someone - no names, no pack drill - to 'p#ss up a rope' becomes pretty intense. And when someone finds another member's perfectly serious comment 'Funny' and clicks on the tittering emoji, they don't need to post any comment at all to upset and anger that member. Damned nuisance, those things. And I speak as one who uses them!
So we do not need to be responsible for our own emotions, then? Interesting. You're quite happy to live in a society of so-called adults who have the emotional fragility of toddlers, who are never challenged and who never need to work on their emotional robustness. Got it.
Do we need to know this??? We all have different opinions, spitting out of dummies will not change anyone's opinion.
Whatever your opinion on this subject the Police in the UK would have surrounded this ladies car with police cars and dragged this lady out. I'll say no more.
