Yes, happy to see through his gracious outreach, he may be redeemable... ! apparently, according to their evil leftist queen, it's only the rest of US that aren't ! Carry on ANGLER.... it's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it. Just don't taint these kids getting your help by teaching them socialist (non)values and indoctrinating them in leftist propaganda, otherwise the rest of US are going to deal with that drama on down the road here..... .

Nice to see what happens when folks get to know each other better, outside of the political banter, and learn that there is a person with a heart and not just a screen name. Brings things into perspective and also a nice change from seeing you be labelled and accused as some enjoy doing here. Yea and I even became good friends with Shabbs after I realized that his alter ego was a really decent person. And as I am always saying how much this site and my interaction with everyone here has helped me to grow so much I want to show how here. I was really starting to not like B/A because of her political views and once again I have learned that is not all that we are. I can so take her and her political views with no problem when I know that she has a heart that big. And she shot an arrow from Cupid's bow straight into my heart when she told us about her child. I don't even care that she will most likely teach her daughter her political views because I'm smart enough to understand that is far far better than where that child was headed. Besides, if we all thought exactly alike what would we fight about then? Life would be boring. So what have I learned? That there is far more to everyone than what we read here. That is one of the reasons that I tell so much of myself. I wish everyone to know who and what I am, I don't want to hide anything. Because I'm not ashamed of anything in my life. And my wish is to know everyone here just like that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonangler Posted February 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Thanks for the kind words, this may be the toughest thing we've ever taken on. We have to goals for her. One, finish high school. No one in her family has ever graduated. Two, make sure she doesn't get pregnant. Her mom and sisters were by age 15. Her mom was a grandmother at 34....

I bet you guys do a great job, and keeping those communication lines open is a must. Someday, she will look back and be very grateful someone took interest in her welfare and took the time to help point her in a healthy direction. Daily encouragement will help guide her to making good choices. Have a good day BA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first she fought everything, but I'm finding she has begun to accept and dare I say enjoy some discipline. Her life was total chaos of drugs and felonies within her family. When we got her, she thought police were bad people. We introduced to several and she has learned everything doesn't have to be dark. She has even mentioned wanting to find out ore about being an officer. That is so ironic, I can't even explain it. Stability seems to be working. We just had a meeting with her teachers yesterday. When we put her in school last year, the 8th grade , she was reading 3rd grade level and math was just as bad. Her latest tests show in one year she is now at 7th grade level. She is still far behind, but is catching up. She tries very hard according to her teachers, but gets frustrated because of her lack of comprehension. We are working hard on that, big time! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokerplayer Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 BA the day will come, don't know when, that she will do something astonishing that will take your breath away. And I say that with confidence and in a good way. In a very small way I envy you. I would love to do that but at my age, not going to happen. soldier on BA Soldier on pp 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have so come to understand that children love a measure of discipline. It shows them that someone cares about them. But I have also learned that there is a fine line to not bringing a child to wrath. Lady Grace literally adores me and her mommy has a hard time understanding that because I am the disciplinarian. I tell her that it's good that she isn't like me, she give Lady Grace the,"good cop". B/A know that you are now in my daily prayers. Please don't ever give up on your little girl. She will forever adore you. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds great BA. Indeed, in today's world, so much is presented as being dark but in reality there is overwhelming light and beauty that she will begin to see as time goes on. She doesn't need anyone telling her how dark things are, or cause her to live in fear any longer. Most of it is just BS to keep folks living in fear every day, very destructive to a person. She sounds like she has a very bright future because someone took the time to love and guide her. Awesome to hear how well she did in school and how quick she caught up her reading levels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
