I hope so! We need to save this history because depending on if the New World Order wins, as it seems they are gaining daily, they will try to rewrite all history and wipe it out. We are seeing it happen before our eyes. It’s up to us to find ways to save this history for people in the future to find (if we lose).

I'm far from a controlling parent I was just stating that he enjoys Tom McDonald as do I. The stuff he checks out on you tube you'd think it would scare him and some videos swear. I always allowed my kids to express themselves. My daughter was 13 and only one at school to get her belly button pierced. I didn't mind I had piercings too. I didn't want her to be at a friends place and do it themselves. She has dyed her hair several time cut it really short and shaved her hair twice. She is 26 now. I never hovered over my children and they have it pretty easy.

Im sorry for that terrible thing that happened to you! For me, my brothers and my mom, it was merciless physical and emotional abuse. I allowed it to make me angry and prone to violence. Drug and alcohol abuse was my escape. I finally decided I hated myself, so suicide was the next logical choice. Then I remembered what I learned about God as a child. I finally forgave my dad for how I was treated and forgave myself for all the damage done by my choices. Forgiveness is key, and I dont think anyone can truly forgive without accepting forgiveness themselves.
