I think it's because the cold water slows down cell death. It's more complicated than that for sure, but that's the gist of it. |
So being 25 is an excuse to endanger the life of a child? When Lincoln was 25 he won his first seat in the Illinois State Legislature. Priorities people. Being born in a rural area is no excuse for stupidity. |
That has to be the first and last time Jamie Lynn Spears and Abraham Lincoln were ever compared. |
| I read on Tuesday that she was awake and talking. |
I wasn't. I'd moved 1000 miles away from my parents, had an apartment and full time job, and spent Saturdays visiting my grandpa, and Sundays cutting coupons and then going to the library and food shopping. |
Ha! Probably the first time, but I think DCUM can make sure it's not the last! |
They were never compared. But just as an example that not 25 year olds are empty-headed twits and that 25 is old enough to know better. |
| Oh good grief it's like comparing 8 year olds now to 8 year olds in the early 1800's, who worked in mills, factories, were given errands on their own around town, etc. Clearly two different time periods. |
Well, let's see, I was born in the previous century (not Lincoln's for those of you who have trouble with math), and by age 25 had been an officer and leading troops for 4 yrs in hostile environments. Point being, not every 25 yr old is a brainless twit. |
The parents have been fully grown adults for years. They do not get any kind of pass for being youngish. |
Agreed I think having a child means that making young and dumb decisions needs to end. |
| I'm glad her daughter is ok. |
