LOS ANGELES--A surprising new study released Monday by UCLA's Institute For Child Development revealed that human babies, long thought by psychologists to be highly inquisitive and adaptable, are actually extraordinarily stupid.
"As a mother of four, I find these results very disheartening," Bentley told reporters. "I can honestly say that the effort I have expended trying to raise my children into
intelligent beings may have been entirely wasted--a fool's dream, if you will."
There you go, Meya LOL!

A subtle way of saying, "Copyright Infringement," a common practice by the person in question ...and condoned by this site.

I don't appreciate being called a fool, even when being winked at at the same time.

"I can honestly say that the effort I have expended trying to raise my children into

Many mothers have expended wasted energy.
That is perfectly clear.
