    I'm disturbed by palin

    As a mother of a handicapped child, I know the attention that baby Trig needs, and it is considerable. That attention will make the difference in his later abilities. How in the heck can she be a real mother, with a handicapped child, a pregnant teen, and other children and still be a good governor or vice president?? Someone has to pay and it is going to be the children. Already you see the result, a pregnant teen.

    I know she doesn't believe in 'choice' but when you have children you have to make a choice, and sometimes that choice is work or take care of the children.
