You people just don't see the world. Trust me. Even though I am 12 I can guarantee you that I have a lot more of a look on the world than you. So lets just drop this. *click*

Do you know what it's like have an INCREDIBLY rare type of cancer and almost die?
Do you know what it's like to have parents divorcing?
Do you know what it's like to have your parents ask YOU for money so they can pay the bills?
Do you know what it's like to live in the poor part of town?
Do you know what it's like to be told "We can't eat that sweetie,we don't have enough money!"?


Once you go through all this,come talk to me.
Because at one point in my life,I have faced all this.
Then tell me you've seen more than me.

I know that some of you on these boards have gone through SOO much more than I have,so please don't flame me if what I wrote above offended you.
You do not know how much admiration and compassion I have for those who have gone through MUCH worse than I have.


I am also a person who has "the balls" to wear my PJs in public.
I could care less what anyone thinks.
You don't know me,you don't know my story,what i've been through,or anything.
And honestly,if you were to come up to me and call me lazy because I didn't change in the morning,I would tell you to buzz off.

There is no way that some people have gone through more then Axel and imabrat. (and some others)

as scary as it sounds, some people have it worse than both of them do. life isn't for the weak of heart. the real world is a scary place. Patty, Sonya and I have seen that. Some people on this thread, however, haven't.

Exactly.
And I feel extremely selfish now because what I've gone through seems like a piece of cake compared to Patti and Shelby.
Sure,having cancer is hard at 14,but I've never been on welfare or had a bad home life like others have.
I can only imagine what life would be like then.


Patti and Shelby,I have SOOO MUCH admiration and compassion for you.
You guys truley are my heroes!

I agree, I never have been living in a place with violence drugs or any of that.

I couldnt imagine how some people have it.

I tottally agree here our family only goes in there if my dance tights rip the day of the competition(its happened 2 times) and i needed tight immediately and the dance store is closed other than that Wal-Mary is too low class me, my friends, there parents, and my parents all made of names for Wal Mart and Target our name for Wal-Mart is Crap Mart and our name for Target is Wonderful Mart

that was just really an imature statement. crap mart and stuff. really. and you say your parents---GROWN ADULTS? say that? WOW!

I don't want to be regarded as anybody's hero just because I've lived through rough spots.

I hold anybody who is currently battling or who has battled cancer in high regard because it takes a lot to do that. And I like seeing people survive it because it gives me a little bit of hope. Right now my godmother's best friend (whom I consider an aunt) is battling breast cancer and a nasty strain at that. They said they had gotten it all and she went in for her breast reduction (so that her breasts would be equal) and they found more in her other breast. So she's back under chemo and everything. My actual aunt is also fighting breast cancer, but the chemo is really getting her and the fact that she's still smoking doesn't help.

Psst- my name's spelled with an 'i' at the end! I really hate to be nitpicky like that, but it's one of my pet peeves to see it with a 'y'. then I feel like I need to be tossed on a grill.

oh okay, i'm sorry. i couldn't remember which way you spelled it.

 

[Axel]

It's fine. People do it all the time because I use an uncommon spelling. I rag teachers on it all the time because they're staring at my name on my papers nearly everyday and only a few of them notice.

Are you one of those people that would go to Disney barefoot?
Just wondering.

I would at the hotel, I did it on the Wonder. got a problem? k then, cause I am what I am.

You're definitely not selfish, Sonya.

Patti, Sonya, and Shelby

Thank you for your posts. You show that there are still mature people in this world. You defend your views with concrete points, not mindless judgments.

If you have a point of view to make, take a lesson from Patti, Sonya, and Shelby, and defend yourselves with real facts. Sometimes "your opinion" isn't good enough.

I don't understand how some people can make judgments about others. YOU have never been in their shoes, and untill YOU have...keep your mouth shut.

Sigh...
And yes as I stated before... I do shop at Walmart. Mainly for art supplies...their canvesas (sp?) are cheaper than Micheals' are. And yes I wear PJs in public...and I still consider myself to look presentable. I would not be "embearased" and neither should you. Heres a wake up call for everyone who worries about how complete strangers judge them...THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU. If you are happy and healthy, then who cares how you dress?

She asked what I meant by lazy.

I seriously, seriously, seriously doubt it.
If you're saying, that your family doesn't shop at Walmart, because it's 'too low class' then YOU'RE probably living in the fantasy world. It appears that you think money is going to guarantee you happiness and everything, that everythings going to come a silver platter.
It's not. You're going to have to work to be successful.

You're twelve, you're in grade seven. You've only really seen the drama of middle school, which is the most pathetic kind of it. People don't realize much in middle school, it's an absorption of well, social life and or whatevers in (which apparently Wal-Mart isn't?). When you get older, you realize that you've got to go to school, and pay for that. Eventually, moneys not going to be so easily given to you, and you will probably shop at Walmart at some point in your life.
Even if your parents are wealthy, they aren't going to support you for the rest of your life. And once that supports gone, you've got to build your own way up, and yes, that means that you won't be 'freaking high class'.
