Basic undertone being, you're a tool, and obviously incapable. I think its applicable with some folks that make comments about not being able to love a child they didn't birth.

Oh! Another good one, to be used with guys..."And you're sure their all yours, huh?" with a look of confusion.

Sorry. Evil, twisted moment there.

Here's my thought, and I'm an adoptive mom. I don't understand how a bmom can give up her child. I can't imagine having that much love to be able to make that kind of sacrifice, knowing it will bring a lifetime of pain.

As far as homeschooling, I don't see how you do it. I am SO unorganized, much to my dismay, that I would never be able to homeschool well. I'd love to see how you manage it just so maybe some of your organization could rub off.
