That would create  MIXED EMOTIONS. For those of you that do not know the definition of  MIXED EMOTIONS, here it is: MIXED EMOTIONS----- When your 21 year old daughter comes home at 3 in the morning and has a Gideion Bible in her hand-----Now thats MIXED EMOTIONS. ::) ::) ::) ::)

I would know I did something wrong, but also give the "Daddy" an attitude adj.

Can't relate, all I've had are boys.

But if I did, !!!!!!!!!!  You would not want to know the things I could think of.

Having lived in Muslim countries, I can come up with some really horrible things to do to women, that would make the rest of their life so  unbearable.

It's really a good thing I am a nice guy.

A one way hike in Grizzly country would be nice by comparison.

Well get used to that name! There will be a whole army of little boys with that name in the next three years. Then if we are lucky there will be a whole bunch of city streets with that name!

I recall a country where the boys were named "Adolf" for a few years, that didn't last long. Hopefully the same will happen with that "B" name

that's the difference in a lib and a normal person . a normal person would wait and see if the man is great and deserves the praise . The lib praises him on what he wants him to do .

Come on Sourdough, pony up here. The title of the thread is "what if your daughter" but the question Questor actually asked was WHAT IF YOUR "SON" OR DAUGHTER NAMED THE KID BARACK? ;D

Hey, Barack is a biblical name. . . we just happen to associate it with Islam and a certain current president born to a muslim father that we gun-toters are not too fond of. 

What if your grandchild was named William. . . as in William Jefferson Clinton?  Most here didn't like him too much either. . . but "Bill" doesn't carry the same negative stigma, now does it?

I'm ok with the name (except that the biblical Barack was a bit of a wuss) regardless of those in our world today who bear the name.

I think (well actually hope) he meant that his grandchild would be the one to give the name a good rep...


My son feels the same way about him that I do, so if my Daughter (in law) did that to me, I guess I'd be getting my sons bedroom ready for him to move back in!

OK Dee, your right.  I'd love him just like the ones I currently have.  Can't blame the kid for the parents mistake.  but I would rather they name him Sue. 

While my oldest son Kirk was in Iraq, his wife came up pregnant.  The little girl is an albino child and blind, but a real darling.  Kirk was real upset with his wife, but they worked it out.  Kirk also said the little girl did not ask to be brought into this situation, and its not her fault.  Kirk said he is going to do everything he can do to see she has as close to normal a life as possible.  My wife and I see no difference between her and her older sister, we love them both. 

Now my EX, Kirks mother, does not see it that way.  After seven years she refuses to acknowledge the little girl, and viciously denies any relationship with her.  She has cut all relations with Kirk and his family.

Well I am on your ex-wife's side. He should have kicked hes wife and her bastard kid out on thier kister. At least that is what I would have done. If she did it to him once , she WILL do it to him again.
