I need to write a short note to the family of a South Korean 14yr old girl who is staying with our family for 2 weeks.
I just want it to say that “Her family should be proud of her” and that “she is well and happy.”, We are having a party with her friends for her birthday today” “Thank you for your trust in us.” “She makes our family very happy”
I am losing my mind with translators, they do however make some funny sentences.

It kind of sounds like paranoia, but I know I am not alone.
And this is not yet another boring Obama thing, or Congress thing. It’s mistrust from City Council, to County, to State to the Federal level. Then fear of schools. The thought that so many public schools are becoming nothing more than daycares for those under 18 as we as America rank bottom of the Industrialized nations, or at the top of Third World Countries. There is Private Schools, but they often have agendas, if anything for the big guy in the Sky.
And it doesn’t stop there. We all have to lock our doors. Most places around the world this is an alien idea, maybe done if you go on vacation or something like that, but to go to work or out for a bite is no reason to lockdown the home. This is even true in Canada where so many have to go search for the keys to the house when go out for long jaunts.
It doesn’t stop there. I remember growing up in the streets of my neighborhood. Since we know where the pedophiles live, since to ‘Catch a Predator’ became known, I do a double-take when I see kids outside, in their front yards without parents. I saw two 10 year old girls waiting for a bus the other night and I wanted to stop and make sure they got onboard. I wanted to send a note home to their parents telling them that they were crazy for letting their little girls out in the dark, at a lonely bus stop.
Then to top it off, knowing that I and most are in more harm’s way with family members than with strangers. You are more likely to be shot, assaulted even ***** by a family member, than a stranger statistically speaking.
It kind of hit me, it’s scary living in America, yet I am use to it. I try to vote, but that hasn’t changed much. I am working on a home school program because I have zero confidence in the schools. I keep my kids in, just as my neighbors do, unless attended. And I own a gun, and keep the doors and windows locked. My cars have security systems, and both my house and cars have a panic button.
Is it really paranoia?

First of all, its a long distance relationship going on 4 years. My bf is very trustworthy, and everything he tells me is completely validated, but is it still inappropriate that he is staying with her? Its not like hes homeless. He can always go live with his grandfather and every now and then stay with his other guy friends. But he’s too stubborn to because his grandfather annoys him. But i was in the same situation with my mom. and if i had to choose between living with a close guy friend and living with my mom, i would live with my mom out of respect for my bf. Because i was raised to believe that living/spending the night with an unrelated member of the opposite *** is inappropriate even if you’re single. Ok i’ll be honest, im a little insecure, but i do completely trust him and the girl. shes sweet, but i do get jealous and upset very often because she gets to spend a lot of time with him that i dont as an ldr couple. and he should be allowed to have fun and hang out with who he wants to, but sometimes i dont like that theyre 24/7 in the same house. And his grandfather and mom dont think its appropriate either. i mean, the girl’s aunt and 9 year old cousin live there as well so theyre not alone, (even though he spent two nights there alone with her?. And he stays online and i call him often so i know nothign is going on, but i still think its morally inappropraite that while im here, missing him like crazy, hes living with another girl who gets to be with him 24/7. and they watch tv together and play guitar hero and such. btw, im 19, hes 20. and other than this problem, we have a very healthy relationship.
Ok, to clear up, this has only been for about three weeks. and please stop giving me long distance advice. You probably havent been in one as long as i have. and we both dont have a lot of money right now. please stop asking why arent we living together. its because we wouldnt have anywhere to live together. i have to stay and live with my grandmother to take care of her, and he’s working his *** off just to have somewhere to stay. stop telling me if he loved me he would do anything for me. Because I dont expect him to starve because Im selfish and i wanna go live with him. Please stop giving me advice on things that I dont need advice on. It’s ignorant and arrogant of you to assume things that I never even mentioned. Probably cause you watch way too much Dr. Phil. We have met in person and this is ONE problem I have had with him and I wanted someone else’s opinion. Not someone’s analysis of my whole relationship. Please answer the question I gave you, not your ignorant analysis.

My ex wife always drops her 4 year old daughter off at her uncles house or watever whenever she has to go somehwere. My ex and I have a 8 year old daughter together and I just don’t trust guys with my daughter, I don’t really have much say in what my ex does with her daughter because she’s not my biological daughter but I care about her a lot, that’s my little girl and if anything happened to whitney I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself for it. She thinks I’m being paranoid about it but I just get really bad vibes from that guy….

Also, why do you think people gossip?
Honestly, I don’t get the whole gossiping bit…..nor do I want to.
