| My views on religion were influenced at an early age by my mother, for the following reason: In early 1971, she lived in San Francisco. She and a friend were out one day and they met up with a preacher on the street, who was trying to raise money. Mom said that while she didn't agree with all of his... |

| I can't remember a time when I COULDN'T read. My mother said I could read by the time I was three, with no instruction. I can remember when I was in kindergarten, we did all these little worksheets on phonics, supposedly to help us learn to read. They were all amazed that I ALWAYS got everything cor... |

| I don't think the issue is that American kids are less intelligent; rather, learning and education are neither presented nor perceived as "desirable" or "interesting" or "entertaining" in this country, so no real effort is put forth to obtain them. Also, the way the education system is set up, every... |

| I can remember in junior high that I was picked on constantly for "bouncing" when I walked. I don't think I do it (as much) anymore, since I've gotten older (and heavier), but I'm sure I still do it to a point. Like many others on this thread, I also walk very quickly--my husband is always telling m... |
