Slow the evening down... the stars are coming out

"It is better to believe when all hope is lost than to not believe and lose all hope."
"It's a song about never giving up, about following your dreams at all costs, and never losing hope."

I think that someone should kidnap Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn, and take her away to a small country town and raise her as their own daughter, away from this ridiculous custody battle and who her father is. The poor child's life is going to be so screwed up just because of who her parents are, or claim to be, or who claims to be her parents. It makes me sad that she, like so many other children of celebrities, will be analyzed and watched and in the public eye her whole life, for no other reason than to satisfy our sick desire to watch other people's lives close enough to point out all their faults. This little girl never asked to be famous, she never asked to have 5 different men claim to be her father, she would never want this. Would you?
So someone, please, take her and never let anyone find her, raise her as your own. Keep her away from this disgusting world of famousness. Take her to Sunday School, make her read the classic books, take her to visit her grandparents every Sunday for lunch. Buy her wooden blocks to play with instead of the newest Playstation. Teach her to ride horses and rope cows. Teach her to sew and buy her rag dolls. Any girl would rather have a rag doll than a Barbie. Teach her to speak two languages, to play the piano and sing. Have family nights and play games with her. Make her share a room with her sisters and let her wrestle with her brothers. Teach her to shoot but get her a pet. Let her climb trees and ride bikes, and go out with friends without supervision when she is old enough. And when she falls and scrapes her knees, kiss it better and shoo her outside to play some more. When she's old enough to date, ask that her boyfriend come get permission from her father before he takes her out. Let her get a job and make money, don't just buy her things that she wants. Let her live a simple life, a normal life, without photographers behind every bush or tree. Show her that the beauty is in the simplicity of life and family. Love her.

i'm suprised with you, teri! you know someone really famous!?

it's sad, but they don't care about her future as much as they care about their own.
