Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
How sweet I have a picture of her riding around. Enjoy the time with them. I have no grandchildren.
I have some too; only real. She was saying, 'Look Memaw' when my son took it. You will be 'blessed' with your own one day. You will enjoy every minute of it. I couldn't keep my older 3 granddaughters due to the fact their Mother had basically let them do and 'see' things they shouldn't have. When they got to me, I couldn't control them. Instead they were controlling me and trying to get me into trouble. The middle one cussed out the bus driver, one of her teachers, stood on the desk with a cell phone and told the teacher to F off. She wouldn't do her homework, sneaked out of the house to meet a guy much older than her, etc. Her and the older one were doing lewd nasty things and posting on Tik Tok. It was too much for me to handle. They are in a much better place now. The little one who is now 9 is the one I miss the most. But she will understand I pray, when she is much older. The father/ my son could not take them because the Mother would have made his (now happy) life a living HELL. She is one of those types who stalk and think 'If I can't have you, no one can.' She is in jail and has been for the last year for doing, manufacturing, and selling METH. It was only a matter of time. It's always the kids who suffer. I pray everyday for my middle granddaughter. I pray for all 3, but the middle one is the most confused. I heard she got baptized the other day. So God is working in her life. That means a lot to me.
I actually remember praying for you years ago for all of this. I was in Hawaii when I first met you on GAW. I was praying for you in the daily prayer thread from Ryan Slechta. I’m happy that you are working through all this, and having a better life. Sometimes we have to let people go, and then the Lord will bring them back to us whole. Enjoy the time with your grandchildren.
My daughter will not be having children, and that’s actually a good thing. She’s a raging leftist into the LGBT, and that child would have a miserable life. I’m afraid she would not be a very good mother, so in the long run, it’s best so I don’t have to go through what you’ve been going through.
God bless you and have a great time with your family.
And thank you for all your prayers.
🙏
You too my friend. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
