there are so many messed up people from folks who maybe were not and should not have procreated b/c they are not adequately prepared and do a HORRIBLE job!
I don't want to come off as self-righteous as I make my fair share of mistakes, but sheesh.
That's why I was eeked to see these classes being offered by our local chapter of
