Multiple times I would turn in homework/tests where coordinates were given in the format of (x,y,0)! To me, it just seems like there is a componet missing when you are only dealing wit... |

| I dont think that you can be *too*interested in your child's welfare, if we dont take care of them WHO WILL? 'Too interested' is often used to describe people who have a singular unbalancing focus on something, while neglecting other pertinent aspects. A similar statement is 'you are overthinking i... |

| They just specified TAGS?????? INTEREST!! !! ! In context, it was license tags on cars. I doubt it included other types of tags. BTW did you ask her for VALID reasons why she thinks she is AS?
