The age of consent here is 16, i lost it at 16, most of my friends did, I don't regret it, never have. I felt ready to lose it then, I was the first of my friends to lose it, never felt any pressure from anyone to do it, it was just the natural next step to take in my relationship.

My parents taught me the value of money. I've always gotten what i wanted, in that respect I am spoilt, but apart from for a week in April, since i was 13 I have never been unemployed. Most of the time i was at school i worked 2 jobs too, My parents taught me to work for what i wanted, and i am so glad they did.

Alot of my friends will be graduating uni this year never having had a real job or having to pay for ANYTHING. they think they can waltz out there and get a job and buy a house in one swoop. I'm glad i'm not so naiive...

How are they providing inferior care for inferior dogs exactly? The dogs are looked after, the dogs  find loving homes.... I don't see how this is any differernt to someone going to a shelter...They're not in puppy farms, you can see mother and father, you get home checked, you get insurance, you get healthy puppy. What is the problem?

I can't quite understand why you would expect a mothers day card from your other half or even your in laws...you aren't their mother are you? your step daughter gives you a token of her appreciation surely that is enough?

Mothers day has been and gone here, I took my mum wine tasting.

Thanks Guys, I am so glad, especially because even though i was with my last company for 2 years they won't pay me any redundancy pay! It's rediculous.

Hopefully I can't my new job soon.

I've been out of work for a week and its driving me mad! This is the first time i've been unemployed since I was 13!

Luckily my other half has decided to start his own business, I've been keeping my self busy making the website and doing the admin and legal stuff that comes with that.

I think the worst is waiting to hear back from interviews. I'm waiting to hear back from 2 companies, and my next interview isn't till Thursday!

On the whole music side of things, I'm not sure if this is still true, but years ago it was illegal to put music files onto the internet for other people to share, but to just download it wasn't. So along as you weren't file sharing you were doing nothing wrong.

If he really loved you he wouldn't be lusting...... You're weight is probably not the only problem in the relationship, just an easy way out.... He's been with you since you were heavier why mention other girls now?? So what if he is a 'local celeb'?? If he wants to be with you some minor celeb status should not change that. It is great you are losing the weight, but if he's not with you  for you personally, why are you with him at all??

Cute puppy! Have you got a name yet? I remember it took us ages to come up with our lab's name!

While the DUI shows a serious lack of judgement (don't get me wrong, I'm not condemning all driving after the imbibement of alcohol, but if you're drunk enough to get caught... c'mon)

Well. Here is one problem.... If you're drunk enough to get caught? really? So the legal alcohol limit doesn't matter, so long as i'm not drunk enough to get caught? Well i know alot of people who can drink alot and function normally (or so it seems) they're fine to get behind the wheel after 10 pints so long as they don't get caught are they? If they were stupid enough they could drive home from the pub, mow down an innocent human being, but, as you said they didn't get caught so what the hey! They didn't get caught so who cares!! You are aware you don't have to be driving noticably erratic to be caught drunk driving?

If someone has a drinking problem there is sweet fa you can do about it till they accept it themselves, i know that from experience. It's really heartbreaking and painfull but that's how it is.

In the comments toward binge drinking. I used to binge drink, but that didn't mean drink driving! Bloody hell, i can go out on a Friday night and drink serveral men under the table but I'm not stupid enough to think i can drive!! Binge drinking might be college culture (I'm the U.K so can only speak for here) but drink driving isn't!! Students surely aren't that stupid???

My advice to the op. Try to make your son realise what he has done, don't pay for anything, he got himself in that mess he can bloody well get himself out. If he is in college and thinks he is old enough to drink, then he is fully aware of all the bad desicions he makes and he shouldn't turn to parents to get him out. If he wants to be treated like an adult by moving away from home, he can learn the hard way. I wouldn't help him one bit. so not having a license stops him getting a job, he must of known that before... he better get used to having no money

It's all down to opinion, if i read only certain opinions on this site then my time spent on the wii fit and my cross trainer would be apparently a MASSIVE waste of time, the fact it's helped me drop over a stone and keep it off, however, is to me at least proof otherwise.

I'd go to the zoo and be a Tiger keeper for the day, then i'd go to the restaurant I've always wanted to go to for dinner ( it's £220 per head!!!!)

Just a question to the people who either leave their dog in a crate all day OR don't have a garden... What does your dog do when they need to pee?
