Reghan is trying to walk

May 14, 2008 at 6:26 pm (Family) ()

For the past few weeks Reghan has been trying to walk. She has been doing great with little assistance. She has been standing up and letting go of everything and balancing herself for a good 10 seconds at times.

Heres a video of her walking with her walker.

When did your children start walking? On their own?

No prom for you! Back to English class.

May 12, 2008 at 4:38 pm (News)

What in the hell is wrong with people? Seriously? So this young girl in Houston, Texas has a prom coming up. From what I understand Prom is a HUGE deal to young females. I would think that because this is the only time you have a prom you would follow the rules and have a great time. No, I am wrong. Meet Miss Marche Taylor. She decided to goto her prom and violate the posted dress code. Then when denied entrance she made a scene and was led away in handcuffs. I wonder if Lil Kim is her role model?

Wheres mom? Wheres dad? Anyone in charge of this 17 year old? It seems not. I would whip my daughters ass if she tried to leave the house looking that way. When interviewed she came across as a moron. Her grammar was terrible. She was speaking ebonics or something of the like. You should not be allowed on television if you can not speak properly to at least some degree.

HOUSTON –

“I actually like the dress. Everybody else likes my dress,” Taylor said.

Madison High’s prom took place at the Sugar Land Marriott. But Taylor only got as far as the lobby. When she tried to enter the ballroom, an official stopped her.

She was told her dress violated a school dress code.

“She shook her head, she was like you are not getting into this prom,” said Taylor. “We were arguing back and forth because I wanted to know why I can’t get into my prom.”

Madison High School Principal Aubrey Todd said the dress was inappropriate and violated the rules.

“It was revealing in such nature it was not appropriate for the prom,” Todd said.

And while she regrets how things turned out, Marche Taylor thinks she had little choice.

“They didn’t give me any options, but to go to jail or go home,” she said.

Maybe she should have skipped the prom and taken some extra courses instead? I just dont get how this is news worthy? Do people really feel bad for her? They didnt give her any options? Bullshit. They should have hauled her ass home and fined the parents for indecent exposure. If they could even find them.
