She's just here because she's got nowhere else to go due to the firewalls. This board is her only possible source of entertainment at school.
I can help with that: she can tunnel to another site either through Here or through Here .

2 choices:

1. Google anonymous web surfing and find one that isn't blocked.

2. Find a hacker in your school and ask.

Have you considered the possibilty that sites are blocked by your school because they'd rather you do something constructive?

Not saying that things here aren't always constructive, but I can think of MANY things that a young, unemployed, teen mother should be doing instead of puttering around on a discussion forum.

You said you don't have a job. I'd be looking for one - libraries have newspapers - read one.

You said you have a daughter. Do you know everything there is to know about being a good parent? (Trick question, no one ever will), but I'd be reading up on it if I had to.

You said you want to get ahead in life - to be a Graphic Designer. Log off of the cellar, and pick up a book, or open a graphics program and get to work. The world won't hand you a pay check just because your daughter is cute.

Contrary to what you may believe, life is not handed to you. You must work for it. This is not some reality show where you will be rescued from an island of single motherhood and put smack dab in the middle of the 'good life'. Sorry, time to wake up and smell the enfamil.

Children often copy what they see when they grow up. Do you want LittleApril to be an unwed teen mother with no desire to be anything in life?

And you said it's hard to find a job. It's the holidays - there are retail jobs everywhere, and burgers always need flipped. It's easier to find a good job when you already HAVE a job, so get off your ass and stop making excuses. You have a daughter to support, even if you're pushing her off on your mom to move to Colorado. She's not your mother's responsibility - because I'll bet your first pay check against my next pay check that she wasn't in the back seat of that car when the child was conceived.

That's a fact. A friend of mine pretty much got a Sales Ass job at Macy's in the span of 20 minutes.

Walk in. Fill out an app. Say hello to manager. Bam hired.

In order to dig up the dirt on somebody and use that dirt to shape the opinions of others. Duh.

Nothing wrong with that. You're free to make your own opinion and I'm free to attempt to slant them in any way I wish by any means I wish.
Let me phrase it another way, then.

This board isn't an election or a popularity contest. I haven't seen anyone named Prom King or Queen over the nine years I've been posting to it, and I don't expect it to happen any time soon.

I may feel that April is an interesting newcomer with entertaining stories to tell about her life to date. Or I may feel that April is a mewling twat who should be flung into a dumpster. Or I may not have strong opinions about April, one way or the other. Which is it? Ah, but that would be telling, and it's not all that relevant.

What I will say is that mounting a one-man propaganda campaign is very likely to annoy the living bugshit out of a lot of people <i>whether or not they agreed with you in the first place</i>. If I needed someone to tell me how I should be thinking and who's unclean and should be shunned, Amish country's about a half-an-hour down the road from me.

Ease up. Relax. Have some dip. "Let's you and her fight" games are high school bullshit and get boring very quickly.

Fluoride usually. It's interesting how similar the words "fluoride" and "Fluoxetine" are isn't it?
