Considering I was studying mythology for a solid decade BEFORE the first book came out I seriously feel you are full of shit. Also, I'm thinking it a case of transference

I seriously sat and reread it SEVERAL times because I knew logically I HAD to be missing something.

There are SO many reasons.

We all have those times, it's a sign of character that you acknowledge it. I hope you are doing better soon. I honestly thought it didn't sound like you, which is why I commented what I did.

No, totally worth it. She may drive me nuts, but then she comes and snuggles up next to me, put her head on my arm and shows me her drawing of a "Fairy Princess Shark" or other unique creation and I totally forget all the bad. Until the dog prances in adorned in rainbow marker hearts, but still, TOTALLY worth it.

Kicking wasn't the problem, it was when she would STREEEEETCH and press on my lungs and...other things at the same time, to the point I was afraid she was going to pop out early

Yep, just in the last week

If the child dies due to neglect the government only has to potentially pay for a trial. If they enter the care of the government they have to pay for the rest of the child's life
