• Child care cost hikes derailing women's careers

  Wed May 16, 2012
  • I know I and every other working mom in Mississippi would love to know where they get that the average full-time child care for a 4 year old in our state is under $4000.

• License plate proposed to honor KKK leader

  Thu Feb 10, 2011
  • I live in Mississippi and can assure you that this narrow mindedness is not reflective of all Mississippians. I am appalled that they would even have the gall to suggest honoring him on a license plate.

• Should parents be required to buy separate airplane seats for children 2 and under?

  Wed Sep 22, 2010
  • Airlines don't allow families with children under 2 enough time to board and install the seats! So I didn't bother on my second trip.

  • Eyesopen! - you are judging this woman with not enough information. This woman is not from the US.

  • Get your oil changed at a dealership?! Seriously? When was the last time anyone attempted to do this? I have a very reliable oil change place who keeps my history and gets me in and out quickly. If I go to the dealership, I have to be there at 7 a.m.

  • Have to completely disagree with you. I bought my Toyota 4Runner Limited SUV used for under $25K. I have friends who have brand new BMWs and Mercedes they paid $50K+ for. Guess whose is always broken down? I've only had to replace my battery after almost 5 years.

  • This is why I'll never own a Ford again. No car should have to have a new transmission nowadays at 100K miles (as my Mustang did). The last three vehicles we've owned (2 Toyotas and one Honda) have all been driven over 225K miles. Not ONE of them had any major repair issues.

• Tattoo Barbie, My Cleaning Trolley and more of the worst ever toys for girls

  Thu Sep 2, 2010
  • Lindy - actually Realistic is somewhat right. One in four Americans are now tattooed - 40% of those between the ages of 26-40 have a tattoo. I don't personally have one. But while these other toys are way out there, I don't see anything wrong with the Tattoo Barbie.

• Miss. school drops race-based rules for student elections

  Fri Aug 27, 2010
  • Javadanny - see you obviously live in Mississippi too, then what are YOU doing to work for positive change yourself? I don't sit back and watch the issues pass me by. And I'm not defending the fact that we're an obese state or have the highest poverty rate.

  • You must live in a different Jackson, MS than I do. That comment is completely dramatic and not an accurate representation of the Jackson Metro area. I can drive around Jackson at any time of night and not have to fear for my life.
