proposition 4.

Prop 4 wants Minor’s to have a parents consent about getting an abortion in other words you can have an abortion unless you have your mom/dad/guardians permission and if the doctor does an abortion to a minor with out the parent knowing they will take there doctors license's away. I think this is a bad proposition because a person has the right over making a choice and if they want to have an abortion it will not had to have her mothers consent. If i was the mother of a girl i wouldn't like to know that my daughter had an abortion i would just want her to do it and me not know.

Relationship Bill of Rights

*I have the right to express all of my feelings, positive or negative.
*I have the right to be uniquely myself .
*I have the right to be happy.

*I have the right to be happy because I don't want to be all the time mad at people around me just because I'm having problems with my partner. I don't want to look at people around me and see them happier than me and be jealous. I want to be happy and when my friends say "Oh I went to the movies with my boyfriend to see the new movie that came out." I want be able to say "Oh my god I went with my boyfriend to see that movie too."

*I have the right to be uniquely myself because I have to be love for who I am not be changed. If I like watching my novelas then there's nothing my partner can do about it. He can't change who I am If he loves me then he has to love watching those novelas with me.

*I have the right to express all of my feelings, positive or negative because if I'm sad about something then I'm going to cry and my partner can't tell me to be quiet he will be there next to me and if I'm happy and I want to be jumping around and singing he won't tell me that I'm making a fool out of myself, he will jump of joy with me too.

On the day you were born

On the day you were born
the moon shine up in the sky...
...while the stars twinkel up in the sky.

On the day you were born
the sun was ready to break into the sky
pushing the moon out of the way.

On the day you were born
I was in pain but I knew it was worth it
the only thing in my mind was seen you and holding you for the first time.

On the day you were born
I saw the doctors rushing into the room
saying "it's time, it's time"
I was ready to push you
I was ready to hold you
I was gonna be a mom.

On the day you were born
I held you in my hands and didnt want to let go,
I kissed you like if you were the glow to my lips,
and I showed you I loved you,

On the day you were born
I nkew I had to change i was a mom
I had to act like a grown lady not a childesh kid.

On the day you were born
I realize that my whole world was surrounded around you
and losing you will be like not breathing no more
you are an angel send from heaven.

On the day you were born
I remember wispering into your ear and saying
"I love you"
