It's interesting that you accuse me of animosity after your accusations of my ignorance, and not only on this thread. Telling someone to 'grow up' for having a different knowledge, opinion, or experience is also interesting.
Lots of people get accepted into British colleges with less than perfect English and most colleges provide support in this area. Given that English is the medium for worldwide publications, even those in a position of university research have their written English proof read, native English speaker, or not. Being accepted into a British college is no proof that we must understand each other's written word.
On topic: On this side of the pond, parental consent is required for medical treatment of a minor. Only in exceptional circumstances is that overridden through legal process, such as a medical team recommending the life support of a child being withdrawn and the parents objecting in their struggle to come to terms with their unimaginable loss.
So, for example, it's a private, familial choice to have your child vaccinated, or not, although parents are encouraged and manipulated to do so. Am I right in understanding that's not the case in the US and that many child vaccinations are compulsory?
If, on this side of the pond we may decide for ourselves about vaccinations, it's unlikely that within nine months it will be compulsory to have a chip implanted into our children. That kind of legal change will take time and would be fought fiercely through the European Court of Human Rights. That's what it's there for - to maintain basic human rights.
Perhaps one difficulty with a family grieving is that it raises, or highlights negative issues that were already there within the group dynamic and which go back for lifetimes.
It's perhaps difficult enough to grieve for a loved one if one could simply focus on that grief, without trying to deal with other unresolved issues which also may need some kind grief processing.
It seems like double whammy stuff to me and perhaps there's no "I really suck at it" about it. It's huge and difficult.
Article 8 [of the European Convention on Human Rights] provides a right to respect for one's "private and family life, his home and his correspondence", subject to certain restrictions that are "in accordance with law" and "necessary in a democratic society". (Wiki)
I wonder how your claims might be enforceable in nine months time, given that mandatory microchipping of babies would require circumventing parental rights and consent.
I've only ever been in situations where men are attacking women.
I'm guessing the looking cute thing won't work terribly well on women attackers.
If a woman was attacking another woman as you described above, I'd have a good chance of having the upper hand in terms of physical strength and could probably block that way, though.
My understanding of homelessness is when people have either no accommodation, or insecure accommodation.
Insecure accommodation includes people living in bed and breakfast accommodation, hostels, domestic violence shelters, staying with friends, or family, etc.
I have explained to one thread author how to reverse the process, but she has chosen not to. I don't know what purpose that serves for her.
Personally, I think posts are better left for all to see. Likewise, perhaps a 'post hider' simple reveals themselves in some way and might be left to get on with it. It's kinda funny.
As a thread contributor, you can only hide posts for the time you're on the page. I'm not sure what purpose that's supposed to serve.
As a thread author, you can hide posts which will remain hidden after you leave the page until readers open them. I'm not sure what purpose that is supposed to serve.
Tell someone where you are going and as much information about your date as you can, like name, address, telephone number, etc.
Tell this person when you are leaving your home and when you get back home.
Let them know if you decide to go anywhere else during the evening with your date.
When meeting up with someone I've met online, I've always texted my friend the moment we've met up. I've told my date I have an over-protective friend and I need to let her know he doesn't look like an internet axe murderer. My dates have found it funny and have never taken offence. If anyone had taken offence, I would have left.
Women are generally more vulnerable when meeting strangers. If a man can't appreciate that, he's not worth dating.
