What do you think of the 'twiblings' story?

I think it's weird, but if they're happy, then fine

• Stacey - I completely agree that the surrogates and donors should butt out of the kid's life after the kid is born.

• It is a perfect example of what I know firsthand is going on in the surrogacy community. Surrogates are USED. Treated like SLAVES. As if we are owned by the very families that we only wanted to help. We are ABUSED, emotionally and even physically. Many cases of birth rape and other forced procedure …

• Stacey - I think you are very intelligent, well-spoken and have thought about this issue in great detail and do what is best for the children.

Should a British girl have been crowned America's Perfect Teen?

Were the parents of a 6-year-old cheerleader right to complain about a 'booty' cheer?

Yes. The cheer was inappropriate for the child's age.

Should school dress codes stipulate body piercings?

• Clint's dramatic statement emphasizes the ridiculous nature of this "alleged" religion. I agree with Clint in the sense that teen expression has been in the news a lot and it's getting ridiculous. 1. CA teens were suspended for wearing the American flag to school. 2. A MS gay teen was forbidden t …

Should she have let her son meet his dying dad?

Yes. She did the right thing. The risk was well worth the reward in this case.

• The 7% who said no are heartless and DO NOT have their children's best interest at heart. CHILDREN ALWAYS NEED 2 PARENTS.

• I know a woman who moved back in with her ex while he was dying of cancer so that his children could be with him. This woman has incredible strength because the ex's family did everything possible to keep her out. She even put a relationship on hold for the ex's dying wish. THAT IS BECAUSE SHE K …

• BettyR - there is a reason why you fall in the 7% category. Pretty much no one agrees with you.

Is it fair to evict 6-year-old girl from home in retirement community?

Yes. The family is knowingly violating the rules of the community.

• It's a tear jerker but if I contracted for a home in that community, I DO NOT WANT KIDS RUNNING AROUND. They can move.

• First of all, this is not discrimination.

• Prime Soup You are absolutely WRONG when you say that a court would disregard the retirement community rules. PERIOD. In fact, if anything, the Court would uphold the retirement community rules. They may allow the 6 year old TEMPORARY accomodation with a FIRM END DATE in sight. I do not underst …

• Good point Jan. THEY SHOULD HAVE PUT THE HOUSE UP FOUR YEARS AGO and they would not be in this predicament now would they? I am so tired of everyone wanting to be treated special for NO GOOD REASON.
