The judgment and disapproval of your choices is bad enough, but using your wedding as a way of having the last word just amazes me. I think this might be one gift you don't have to send a thank you for.Susan Walshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01984275712518966508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326863927340093937.post-41439422998898428422011-04-12T02:16:08.708-04:002011-04-12T02:16:08.708-04:00My advice is to know when is their anniversary and...My advice is to know when is their anniversary and give them a pro-choice book. Of course only do that if you are willing to keep fighting them forever. This is the sort of issue when no one convinces anyone ever, people that change their minds usually do so alone and for a personal reason. <br />S.R.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326863927340093937.post-59484495572758903842011-04-11T23:10:06.820-04:002011-04-11T23:10:06.820-04:00I felt bad for you until you said you lived in Okl...I felt bad for you until you said you lived in Oklahoma. Yes, you will face (unsolicited) hostility for being pro choice.

The gist of it was that, as long as I obeyed my husband immediately and unquestioningly at all times, even against my better judgment, we were guaranteed to live happily ever after.<br /><br />Ugh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326863927340093937.post-8933688920765805362011-04-10T19:02:20.085-04:002011-04-10T19:02:20.085-04:00Perhaps you could send them this: http://www.amazo...Perhaps you could send them this: http://www.amazon.com/How-Pro-Choice-Movement-Saved-America/dp/0465054900/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1302476491&sr=8-1 as a thank you gift. :)Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653841505314064347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326863927340093937.post-26202008656211103762011-04-07T12:08:42.558-04:002011-04-07T12:08:42.558-04:00That's an....interesting wedding gift.

If not, you can register to read it <a href="http://www.texasmonthly.com/preview/2010-02-01/letterfrombryan" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Her story is SERIOUSLY full of holes -- many parts of it are flat-out lies. <br /><br />I agree that they think they're helping you, but they aren't, and they ARE being offensive.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00261775138034135470noreply@blogger.com
