I know someone who has children with different fathers. She is a good mum, no different to any other mums I know, she works, she's not on benefits, she's not tarty, in a relationship or looking for one
She doesnt tell anyone xcept close friends and family that the children have different dads, if asked directly she'll lie and say no they all have the same father. i think she shouldnt have to, but she thinks because of stigma to her and her kids she does have to. Sooooooo i thought Id ask what people thought. Are mothers with different fathers for their kids usually judged harshly, even if theyre good mothers? do you think that say, two different fathers is understandable, but three or more indicates some character flaw of the woman? (obviously I don't think this,, myself) #2Posted 31 October 2010 - 07:53 PM
Each to their own I guess.
Who am I to judge a perfectly capable mum if she has several children to different men, it doesn't worry me I know a few women in this situation and I treat them the same as my friends with 3 children to the same father. #3Posted 31 October 2010 - 07:54 PM
Some people THINK it reflects poorly on the mother and the children, but the reality is it is no real indication of who or what that person is. Pre-conceived ideas and stereotypes are more often than not way off the mark.
Unfortunately doesn't stop it from happening. Some people choose to believe what they want, even if it has no connection to reality whatsoever. #4Posted 31 October 2010 - 07:54 PM QUOTE (Rapunkkzel @ 31/10/2010, 08:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know someone who has children with different fathers.

My brother & I have different dads. It makes no difference, we are still 100% family. Are they 'usually' judged? I don't know, I guess the only people that would know are mums in this situation *toddles off to ask mine* #5Posted 31 October 2010 - 07:55 PM
My DS has a different bio dad. It is a non issue for us. People don't know unless it comes up, I am not ashamed of it at all. All my kids look totally different from each other so no one picks up on it.
My Dad's ex on the other hand has 5 kids, the 1 and 3 have the same dad. 2 has a different dad but thinks that 1 and 3's dad is her dad. 3 thinks that my dad is her dad. 4 and 5 are my dad's kids, they live with him. She is now pregnant to a 4th man with #6. She is the stereotype, on welfare and her parenting borders on neglect the majority of the time To quote another eb'er this week, call me judgy mcjudgy.

What about fathers with children to different women?
If you really don't care - then why do you care enough to ask? #7Posted 31 October 2010 - 07:59 PM QUOTE If you really don't care - then why do you care enough to ask? That is what I thought. What if there are two different fathers due to the death of the first partner? Does that make a difference? #8Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:01 PM
Despite your carefully crafted question, what you seem to be asking is 'are they sl*ts? How many different fathers before they are or are not?'
Presumably your objective is to stir up a fight, over a meaningless 'issue'. #9Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:03 PM
Huh, well if they are judged, one day I guess I will be too. I have no intention of ever letting my ex near me with a 50ft pole, so if I choose to have another child at a later stage, they will have different fathers.
#10Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:03 PM
I can't even imagine where a question like that would be asked in general, if any conversation.
#11Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:04 PM
A sh*t parent is a sh*t parent, no matter what the child to dad ratio is.
#12Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:04 PM
well i know one, and she had her kids taken by DHS because of severe neglect.
another is a great mum to her kids.. i honesty don't think they differ from mums who kids all have the same dad. #13Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:07 PM QUOTE (SomeRandomStranger @ 31/10/2010, 09:03 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I can't even imagine where a question like that would be asked in general, if any conversation. i get asked by strangers all the time. their response "well thats rare" #14Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:10 PM
I think there would be judgement if, for example, the women had 2 or 3 kids with minimal age gaps to 2/3 different fathers. ie one night stands ending in pregnancy.
I think that is very different to someone being in long term relationships having kids with each long term partner. I will admit I would and have judged on women that have multiple kids to multiple partners (using the first example above, not the second). They might be the worlds best parent to the kids but not the smartest. QUOTE What about fathers with children to different women? My opinion is the same for both male and female. I recall the famous quote from the 80's "if it's not on, it's not on". Some people need to be reminded of this I think. #15Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:12 PM
My next door neighbour on the left was gossiping that my next door neighbour on the right has kids to 3 different men. Who cares??? I stared at her blankly. Should I have raised my eyebrows in sock, horror or disgust? She also b**ched that her house was dirty. HAHA! She should see mine. Judgmental fool.

Im not in that situation so I dont know the reality of what she deals with or even if people in general do judge her. There's nothing whatsover wrong with her as a person or a mother.

I think yes they probably are judged, whether that's harsh or not depends on whether you subscribe to it! 2. I think most people don't know if someone's a good mother or not so that part is hardly relevant. You can spot someone not being obviously a bad mother (running around with different men, having them 3. I think at some point it is indicative of a character flaw. I don't make a blanket call on how many but the fewer the better and if you have kids very close in age to different fathers that looks much worse imho. I know a woman who has 2 kids barely 15 months apart to 2 different men and a3rd child to a 3rd man only 2 years younger.. Basically she slept around a lot. #18Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:13 PM
People have children to more than one father for all sorts of reasons. I don't think it is anything to be ashamed of per se, but the fact that she lies about it speaks volumes about her own comfort with her situation.
I find women who lurch from relationship to relationship a bit sad to be honest. What is wrong with them that they can't function without a man in their lives? One of my closest friends has kids to two fathers. The first guy was just a dipsh*t. Her DH is a great guy. There's no reason to think ill of her for one bad decision. #19Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:14 PM
I have someone close to me who has 3 kids to 3 different fathers. She was married to her first child's father and they divorced. Second child she had a holiday romance and fell pregnant (and he didn't want anything to do with her or the baby - ETA - she had IVF for her first child and took her many attempts to have her, so she didn't think she was fertile - but she was on the pill..). She just remarried and her and her new DH have a baby. So 3 kids / 3 dads - but it isn't like she was selling herself on the street. I have to admit a few people close to her (and me) do make smart a*se comments about it, but I just remind them of males we know who have fathered quite a few different kids to different mothers, but they don't see the kids and whinge about the huge amount of child support they pay .
QUOTE My opinion is the same for both male and female. I recall the famous quote from the 80's "if it's not on, it's not on". Some people need to be reminded of this I think. I agree!!

FWIW, my SIL has 3 children to 3 different fathers. There are reasons for it to which it's none of my business to share. I don't think she has a problem with telling people or that anyone else cares. She hasn't felt judged from what I can tell so perhaps your friend has had a bad experience with someone being rude?
Perhaps it helps that the fathers are active participants in financially and emotionally supporting their child. If she'd been left in the lurch it might be different - meaning I can imagine she would end up being the one who's hard on herself, as opposed to society. #22Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:25 PM QUOTE ETA - My kids superglued several letters on my keyboard together - so apologies for the errors! Welll..My eldest 2 are to my highschool love who i was with from 14-24. My middle 3 are to my ex husband and my last 2 are to my exp. Am I judged? Probably although most people are surprised to find that I am a single parent so very few really think further than that. Do I care if I am judged? Nope. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

#24Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:28 PM
I was asked this question today. Not what I think of women with children to different men but if my eldest is my husbands. I don't think there's anything to be ashamed of in regards to re-partnering and having more children. I do think it's a bit icky the women who go from man to man having kid to kid, whether it be one night stands of short relationships. #25Posted 31 October 2010 - 08:28 PM

PoliticsCourt says Occupy activists can re-enter park New York court order says evicted Occupy Wall Street activists can return to park, after earlier arrest of 200 people. 15 Nov 2011 18:01 GMT | Politics A court in New York City has ordered police to stand down and allow Occupy Wall Street protesters to return to the demonstration site that they were forcefully evicted from by hundreds of police in riot gear earlier on Tuesday. Just hours after Zuccotti Park, which Occupy activists have been camping in for just under two months, was emptied in a pre-dawn police raid, the National Lawyers Guild (NLG) obtained a court order allowing demonstrators to return with their tents to the park. But the city's Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the park would remain closed while officials reviewed the legal situation. Live Box 201111485425466767 The camp, which was set up in September to protest against economic inequality, has inspired similar protests around the world. Notices given to the protesters before the raid said the protest "poses an increasing health and fire safety hazard to those camped in the park, the city's first responders and the surrounding community". The NLG, a coalition of lawyers and legal support workers, said that the official injunction prevents the city from enforcing park rules on protesters. Ray Kelly, the New York Police commisioner, confirmed that 200 protesters were arrested on Tuesday, 142 of them in Zuccotti park and 50 to 60 others in the surrounding area. Bloomberg said the city knew about the court order but had not seen it and would go to court to fight it. He said the city wanted to protect people's rights, but if a choice must be made, it will protect public safety. Following the evictions the park was power-washed clean by sanitation workers, and the make-shift kitchen, library and other materials in the park had been confiscated or destroyed. Police in riot gear ringed the public space, waiting for orders to reopen it. 'No camping allowed' City officials told protesters that they could come back after the cleaning, but under new tougher rules. They would be allowed to protest, but without tents, sleeping bags or tarpaulins, which would effectively put an end to the encampment if enforced. "History is on the side of the Occupy movement, not those who try to suppress it." - Dan Siegel, former legal advisor to Oakland's mayor "The law that created Zuccotti Park required that it be open for the public to enjoy for passive recreation 24 hours a day," Bloomberg said. "Ever since the occupation began, that law has not been complied with, as the park has been taken over by protesters, making it unavailable to anyone else." Following the evictions, hundreds of former Zuccotti Park residents and their supporters marched along Lower Manhattan. Some paused and locked arms outside the gates of City Hall but left when police in riot gear appeared. About 300 to 400 kept moving along the pavements. "We are back at Zuccotti Park and the roles have been reversed," Al Jazeera's Cath Turner reported from near Zuccotti Park. "There are about 50 police in the middle of the park and about 100 or so around the perimeter. "The protesters have surrounded the park, some are slowly marching around the edge." Some were chanting: "This is what democracy looks like". Others chanted "hey, hey, ho, ho, our billionaire mayor has got to go," referencing Bloomberg, whose wealth is reportedly valued at nearly $20bn.In a press release, the NLG said that in the process of the raid, "[police] destroyed property and arrested dozens of occupiers and protestors including NYC council member Ydanis Rodriguez and District Leader Paul Newell". Health and safety Health and safety issues has been used as reasoning for cracking down on or evicting Occupy camps around the US, with protesters ordered to take down their shelters, adhere to curfews and relocate so that parks can be cleaned. The argument was used in Oakland, California, on Monday morning when police cleared out the Occupy Oakland encampment for the third time. Live Box 201110415333680466 More than 1,000 protesters in the California city returned on Monday evening to decide what to do next. In the wake of Oakland's police crackdown, the mayor's top legal advisor on police, Dan Siegel, resigned, sending his resignation letter in at 2am on Monday morning, just before police raided the city's protest camp. "I regret taking this action, but I cannot be part of an administration that sanctions police attacks on peaceful protesters attempting to reverse this society's cruel and undemocratic policies," Siegel's letter read. "It is almost beyond belief that our city has become the most hostile in the nation towards this new and positive movement for change. "History is on the side of the Occupy movement, not those who try to suppress it." Among more than 30 demonstrators arrested by Oakland police early on Monday was a man whose immigration documentation was reportedly incomplete. A lawyer in Oakland told Al Jazeera that although most of those arrested had been released by mid-afternoon, the man continued to be held in jail awaiting turnover to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.Source: Al Jazeera and agencies

Comments about 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw:
Great saw,lots of features,very precise cutting. Digital Guage very easy to read and to duplicate cuts.Great for custom trim work and building decks. Highly recommended .

Comments about 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw:
Product arrived quickly and had no damage out of the box. The 2nd day using the saw, the rotating knob that tightens the deck at areas outside of detent, stripped. I take care of my tools, and use them kindly. I hope warranty covers the repair, that's all.

Comments about 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw:
I use the saw for trim, cabinetry, furniture, mostly in a shop environment. It is ironic that some commenters object to a few plastic parts AND object to the weight. If it were all metal, it would add another hundred dollars or so, more shipping cost and so many more pounds as not to be transportable at all.
I built a table for it (2'-2" X 3'-2" removable top, such that saw's turntable surface is 3'-0" off the floor) with 8" diameter heavy duty casters to roll it outside or to put it out of the way. The large casters mean it can roll across turf or uneven ground.
The fence-to-blade alignment was off about one degree out of the box. Fine Woodworking has a detailed description on how best to correct the horizontal and vertical alignment, the owner's manual is skimpy.

Comments about Milwaukee 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw:
I own a building material store and I build custom furniture as a hobby business. We have sold several miter saws over the years, and this is the only saw that customers come back in to tell us how much they love it! I have owned several dewalt models and they simply don't compare to the Milwaukee.
It came out of the box 100% accurate.
Adjusting the bevel with the large paddle handle is easier on this saw than any other.
It slides smoother than any other saw on the market.
The soft start motor makes it easier to handle and reduces fatigue. It also lets you concentrate on holding the workpiece instead of ensuring the saw doesn't jump up out of your hand.
The dust collector seems to pick up a larger percentage of the dust than other saws.
Bad things:
1 - The right side fence does not slide. Not the end of the world, but seriously...what were you thinking?
2 - The blade guard is clear, but you really can't see through it to make accurate cuts. It's good enough when cutting framing, but skews your vision too much to cut trim. I have to pull the guard up, set my piece, drop the guard, then cut. It takes some getting used to but the positives far outweight the negatives.
3 - If you turn the miter table too quickly, the digital read out gives you a number that is way out of whack. Returning it to 0 degrees or a preset stop seems to reset it.

Why Do Parties Use It?
Set the scene: two companies from two different countries and two different legal backgrounds negotiate a contract to build a chemical processing plant. Neither company wants to litigate a potential dispute in a foreign court or have the contract interpreted by a judge or jury that is unfamiliar with the chemical processing industry. Further, neither party wants to risk obtaining a favorable judgment that is unenforceable in a foreign court where the opposing party's assets are located, or to have a third party competitor or members of the public able to follow each step of their litigation dispute in court. For many parties in similar situations, unfamiliar with the language, rules and customs of foreign courts and often unsure of the basic independence of those courts from outside pressure and influence, the solution to these problems is international arbitration.
What Is It?
International arbitration is a non-judicial, binding form of dispute resolution. It provides a forum that gives parties the autonomy to resolve their disputes based on the guidelines of their choice. This flexibility is coupled with the ability to have a neutral third party or parties, known as an arbitrator(s), decide the outcome of their dispute and render an award that is enforceable in multiple international venues. For these reasons, among others, international arbitration is appealing to many parties dealing in international commerce. Within the realm of international arbitration, parties from different cultures, who speak different languages and come from various legal systems - such as a common law versus a civil law system - can find a common platform from which to communicate.
The Procedural Rules
Arbitral tribunals are usually either ad hoc or institutional. In other words, parties may decide to utilize fully the ability to dictate every aspect of an arbitral proceeding for themselves, or they may submit their dispute to one of the many arbitral institutions that offer a framework of rules to govern an arbitral proceeding. In an ad hoc arbitration, the parties decide for themselves how arbitrators are to be selected, what procedural rules are to govern the arbitration process, what the applicable substantive law will be, and how administrative support arrangements are to be made. Some parties choose ad hoc arbitration because they want rules specially tailored to their business relationship, they assume it will be less expensive than being required to pay administrative fees, or they are simply unable to agree on which arbitration institution should handle the dispute. Generally, ad hoc arbitrations afford parties the greatest autonomy on how their dispute will be resolved, and work out cheaper than institutional arbitration if the parties are able to limit the case they put forward and work well with each other within very narrow dispute resolution confines. If not, costs increase simply because the parties end up in dispute over how the arbitration will be conducted, in addition to the substance of the dispute itself.
An arbitration institution, on the other hand, has pre-set procedural rules which the parties can typically modify subject to some exceptions. Institutional arbitrations are popular with parties that do not wish to negotiate every aspect of an arbitration on a case-by-case basis. For example, negotiations over clauses involving ad hoc arbitration can become lengthy as the parties dispute different aspects of the case, such as the permissible length of written submissions, whether oral argument will be permitted, whether cross-examination is allowed in questioning witnesses, and the number of witnesses each side will be allowed to present. Further, an institution's pre-set infrastructure provides the parties with benefits such as access to lists of approved and qualified arbitrators, the ability to work with a trained staff that is experienced in efficient administration of the dispute resolution process, and the availability of independent procedural rules that provide a more predictable structure for the arbitration. Although parties can usually modify an institution's procedural rules, it may not be advisable to do so because national courts generally give greater weight to arbitral awards that are the product of an institutional arbitration conducted according to standard rules than to awards resulting from ad hoc arbitration proceedings. On the whole, and subject to certain exceptions, institutional arbitration is to be preferred.
Regardless of whether an arbitration is ad hoc or institutional, however, the tribunal must have the participating parties' written consent to decide the dispute in question. Because a tribunal's authority comes from the parties' consent, international arbitration avoids some issues common to litigation such as whether the decision-making body has personal jurisdiction over a party. The most common way that parties give consent is by including an arbitration clause in their contractual agreement. Less often, parties agree to submit to arbitration after a dispute has arisen. In either case, the agreement to submit disputes to arbitration may be drafted to indicate what procedural rules will govern a future dispute including the number of arbitrators, how arbitrators are to be appointed, the location of the arbitration, and the language in which the proceedings will be conducted.
A major provision that contracting parties usually include in an arbitration clause is the number of arbitrators that will be required to sit on a tribunal panel. Although parties have the freedom to select a single arbitrator or any number of arbitrators, typically, the parties select as sole arbitrator for smaller disputes, and a panel of three arbitrators to decide larger disputes. Parties have the flexibility to select arbitrators from a number of different legal as well as non-legal backgrounds. For example, in a dispute involving highly technical topics, the parties may appoint an arbitrator with a technical background in the field relevant to the controversy, such as an engineer or a chemist in our chemical processing example above. Additionally, if the dispute involves a number of different languages, the parties may require that a potential arbitrator be fluent in the languages relevant to the dispute, thus allowing the parties to plead in the language of their choice, and reducing translation expenses during the course of the arbitration.
Enforcement Of Arbitral Awards
Arbitrators have no independent power of enforcement, and if national courts were able to construe arbitral awards based on their own discretion, there would be a risk of inconsistent enforcement. To promote uniform enforcement of arbitral awards, awards are typically enforced through treaties and conventions. The Convention on the Recognition and Execution of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958, also known as the New York Convention, is the major means for parties to seek consistent judicial enforcement of arbitral awards. Well over 130 countries have agreed to abide by the New York Convention, including the United States. The presence of such international conventions and treaties promotes parties' confidence in the enforcement of arbitral awards - it is widely regarded as easier to enforce an international arbitral award than a foreign court award - and thus increases their willingness to consent to arbitration as a means of resolving their disputes.
Types Of International Institutions
Because the New York Convention requires that certain procedures be followed during an arbitration proceeding for an award to be enforceable, disputing parties may prefer to arbitrate in an institution rather than to arbitrate on an ad hoc basis. Some institutional arbitration organizations generally handle all types of disputes while others specialize in particular areas of law.
The American Arbitration Association's International Centre for Dispute Resolution ("ICDR"), the International Chamber of Commerce's Court of Arbitration ("ICC"), and the London Court of International Arbitration ("LCIA") are amongst the most well-known and well-established arbitration institutions that tailor to international business disputes. Other rising commercial dispute institutions include the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce ("SCC"), the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission ("CIETAC") and the Cairo Regional Centre for International Commercial Arbitration ("CRCICA"). In addition, the Permanent Court of Arbitration in the Hague facilitates the administration of arbitrations involving various combinations of private parties, states, and intergovernmental organizations, while major specialty organizations include the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes ("ICSID"), and the World Intellectual Property Organization Arbitration and Mediation Center ("WIPO").
Advantages And Disadvantages Of International Arbitration
Whether ad hoc or institutional, there are a number of advantages and disadvantages to the use of international arbitration as a mechanism for efficient and final dispute resolution. One advantage of international arbitration is that an arbitral award is usually easier to enforce internationally than a court judgment. Typically, a national court will decline to enforce a foreign court's judgment unless it meets very narrowly tailored requirements. To remedy this problem, many countries have entered into treaties and conventions wherein they agree to honor other signatory countries' arbitral awards, such as the New York Convention as highlighted above. Another advantage to international arbitration is that parties are able to keep the facts surrounding their dispute (including the fact of their dispute) and the terms of the arbitral award confidential. There are some potential negative consequences to this confidentiality. Because arbitral awards are usually kept private, there is a lack of precedent for subsequent parties and arbitrators to consider when they are involved in similar disputes.
Of usually greatest concern to companies, pursuing international arbitration may be significantly less expensive than litigating a dispute in a judicial system. For example, in a highly technical engineering matter, it may save time to have an engineer analyze and decide the dispute rather than to have a judge who does not have a technical background take the time to understand and decide the dispute. Usually, arbitrating a dispute is also faster than litigating a dispute because parties are not facing a crowded court docket and there is less chance for appeal of an arbitral award. The less time it takes to resolve a dispute, the less expensive it will usually be for the disputing parties. In addition, because the parties in an arbitration may select the language of their choice to be used in a proceeding instead of being forced to use the language of a court venue, parties can save costs on translating documents. Finally, there is usually a limited role for discovery, which tends to eat up so much time and expense in litigation. However, the costs for conducting an arbitration can, at times, also exceed the costs of a litigation. There is limited, if any, ability for a party to submit a "motion to dismiss" or "motion for summary judgment." As a result, as long as the arbitral tribunal has jurisdiction to hear a dispute (a question which the tribunal will decide for itself), a case will usually proceed to the merits phase almost regardless of the strength of the claims. Further, as the number of experts in an arbitration rises, so do the costs of the arbitration. Parties that decide to submit their arbitration to an institution must also pay the institution's fees, often in advance, and there could be increased travel costs when the parties are required travel to a distant location to conduct the arbitration. Travel costs can be reduced, however, using mediums such as video conferencing and electronic mail that help to decrease the need for face-to-face meetings.
Another advantage to arbitration is that parties have the flexibility to use it as an optional, mandatory, or cumulative dispute resolution process. Parties are increasingly using international arbitration as part of a multi-step dispute resolution process. In such agreements, parties must pursue non-binding dispute resolution processes (often called "ADR," a term with which international arbitration is sometimes mistakenly confused) such as negotiation, conciliation or mediation as a pre-condition to arbitration. Further, some parties prefer the informal advocacy style of arbitration to litigation. Unlike litigation, in international arbitration parties are not forced to abide by formal rules of evidence or to address a tribunal with formal language. This lack of formality often facilitates a more efficient, productive business-like proceeding when parties have different legal training and there is a potential that one party will be disadvantaged based on their legal background. On the other hand, some parties may prefer the formalized rules and procedures available in a litigation setting. An arbitration a party may be prohibited from seeking remedies such as equitable relief or punitive damages, and have limited right to appeal the tribunal's final decision. In addition, arbitration is litigation's poorer cousin when it comes to a dispute involving multiple parties. Unlike arbitral tribunals who can only resolve a dispute to which a party has consented, national courts usually have rules that allow - and often compel - joinder of parties and the consolidation of similar disputes. Therefore, national courts may remain better equipped to handle multi-party disputes in complex commercial matters where the court has personal jurisdiction over each party.
International arbitration allows parties of different nations to transact business in confidence that they will be able to obtain a satisfactory result in the event that a dispute arises. It gives parties a better perception of fairness regarding the proceedings than litigation. In a dispute involving parties of different nationalities, each side usually feels that it would face bias or prejudice in the opposing party's national court. By taking the dispute to an "a-national" plane, international arbitration allows parties the autonomy to resolve their dispute in a neutral, customized manner with the rules, guidelines, and arbitrators of their choice. Such autonomy helps to foster confidence in the fairness of an arbitration proceeding. When parties are satisfied in the fairness of a dispute resolution procedure, they are more likely to comply voluntarily with the results of the process. Even when parties do not voluntarily comply with an arbitral award, there are conventions and treaties in place which give parties confidence that their private agreement will be recognized and enforced in public venues. When parties seek to resolve a dispute that spans multiple nations in an effective, efficient, and confidential manner, international arbitration is the venue that most likely fills the void traditional litigation can leave behind.

Relies on defense rather than strength
Prone to over-heating in hot climates
Can't climb rocks
Fur is un-blendable with the snow
She was originally going to be in Fireclan (which is why her fur's been looking really sleek for a long time)
Originally, she was going to be mates with Rhinne's Wolfsong, even after she met Sunstorm.
In the beginning, before Sunstorm and Wolfsong, I was planning to make Rookfeather and Sablefur mates, but the rules wouldn't allow for it, so now they're siblings.
In the beginning (around the time I first joined the guild) waay before Sablesun, and the gathering in which they met, I always thought that she and Sunstorm ('paws at the time) would make a cute couple.
I had no idea that she and Suntorm were even going to speak to eachother.
She loves Fireclan and their fish, even though she is capable of being easily worn out and prone to overheating.
She had like, 4-5 design changes until this final one. Later on, I was going to color her pelt as a dark red to match with her name. I dropped it though.
I never gave much thought to her personality or her history - I just found a base, designed her, wrote that she was very curious and then that was it. |D
- Love
- Mate
-Close Friend
[X] [strike] -Deseased/dead
There's a lot of things I can say about this perplexed clan. Fallenstar is their leader, and according to everything he has done in the past, he wasn't really a great one. He lied to us, and he tricked Echostar into believing that Moonclan was worthy enough of our help. He didn't tell us about what his clan had done to Pebbleclan and Dawnclan, or to Fireclan. And worst of all, he got even Starclan incapacitated from his crimes. However, after everything that happened, and the resolvings that took place, Starclan was gracious enough to let Fallenstar keep his occupation and his life, but he has to prove to them that he is liable enough to withhold having the 'star' behind the prefix of his name. I'm still wary of him, but I feel that he can do it."
Crystalstar[X] - Crystalstar was the leader for Snowclan before Echoctar's and Pearlstar's reign. Sablefur hadn't communicated much with her before she passed away, but she acknowledged her as a fit and fair leader, with determination of keeping her clan well, and Sablefur was very upset to see her go.
Rookfeather "Rookfeather is the only brother I have, and I definitely love him more than a lot of things. Yeah, he can be a big pain in the butt, reckless, and so embarrassing that at times, I really want to disclaim him as blood, but he's also a big goofball, and cunning, and has a good heart that portrays him as a good tom, and a pleasure to me as a brother; I wouldn't trade Rookfeather for anything. That idiot means a lot to me even though he's reckless, and has numerous mouse-brain times, but It still doesn't take away how much I love him--he's still the only blood family I got, and my best friend. He and Sundancer are now mates, and she is finally pregnant - he's going to be a father, and I'll have me some nieces and nephews!"Crookedflame- "I talked to him only once during my first gathering as an apprentice. He really didn't think the whole thing was eventful, so he claimed, and so, didn't want to mingle with other cats--saying that there was no point in it and such. Although he did have a good reason for it: I wouldn't want to get too close to another cat from a differen't clan only to fight them in potential battles and skirmishes. Over-all, Crookedflame was always the biggest grump in Snowclan; always having arguments with Saplingtail, and being really hard to talk to without him verbally shoving you away, or giving you one of those agitated facial gestures. I think he's even gotten kits afraid of him when he was still around. But...I'm sure even they still looked up to him and respected him not only as a good medicine cat, but as a good cat in general - and I'll always miss that in him. Crookedflame's gone to Starclan a little while ago now, and it was very tough on all of us when we heard of it - and even now, it still feels kind of empty without him walking to and fro, out and in of camp with a jaw full of medicinal herbs. I'll miss him. I still do."
Sundancer- " I really don't know what she sees in that goofy, dork-ish looking brother of mine, but I really am glad that those two are finally together; and that just means that Rookfeather will be coming back to me twice as much as he did talking about her when he was an apprentice - It's so cute of him, now that he's got his very own priority to look after now. I'm so excited - she's pregnant!"
"I don't believe that Snowclan has any type of major quarrel with them, I personally don't but I...I guess I can't say that they're down to Dawnclan's level. Right now."
- They also fought against us in the great war. But after everything was resolved.. Well, I guess my opinion of them has been untitled.
- " I personally I don't like them at all; they're one awful clan, and that's all I can see when I'm pained to depict them."
They fought against us in the great war, but after things started to unravel and a light was shed upon what was really taking place, Dawnclan did not fight as rogues anymore, but as warriors. Regardless, I still can't say that I appreciate them.
Fireclan is a swift group of warriors that live in an intense heat. I've been there before when I went to go see Sunstorm. I don't think Snowclan has any quarrels with them.. as far as I know, and I hope that it is the same for them. In the great war, they fought against us, but after everything was resolved...well, I guess things have gone back to normal? Save the suspicions of Moonclan.
Sunstorm Sunpaw is my best friend! I met him at my last gathering when I tripped and fell! He's so nice and cool too, I hope that next time there's a gathering he and I get to go and talk to eachother again!
"Who? 'Sungloom'? Sunstorm is my best friend. He's the only non-Snowclan friend I know, and I think that he's the closest friend I have at this point. He's really nice and sweet, and he can be real big goof ball at times, but that's what I like about him. I met him at my first gathering when I...kind of tripped past him and he walked up to me afterwards. It was embarrassing, and even though I'd rather not remember it, it is pretty memorable and something I'm positive that I am never going to forget. But in the end, we became very close friends--always having high hopes to see eachother at every chance we got. He told me that he wanted to see Snowclan one day and for some reason I'm not very vague to say that I hope he can come over one day and actually see it--I mean, it's not like he's got to cross over the border and roll and play in it...if he doesn't want to."
It's like it took forever, but once my second gathering came around, it was like I was surrounded by a crowd of cats this time, and I can even go as far as to say that there could've easily been over a million differen't cats at that Gathering, it was so booked; and just that made it look like Sunstorm hadn'tve came this time, but eventually I finally found him. I remember I was so excited to tell him that I was a warrior now, I'm even excited saying it now! And I really like Sunstorm--he's a great friend and all, and it's like he's in Snowclan, but reality knows he's not, and it came across as very disappointing--I'd trust him with almost anything. I wish our clans weren't so far apart though.
Along the lines, I was in a debate in whether this Gathering was either short or very time-consuming, but more than anything--I still wanted to stay with Sunstorm, and I mean, of course I'm loyal to Starclan and Snowclan--and if anything, I'd like to put them first for anything and everything but, I kind of followed him into Fireclan. Maybe I should've listened to Crookedflame and distanced myself from any non-Snowclan cats in the gathering, cause' now I know that I'd have a hard time bringing myself to potentially fighting Sunstorm in the future, and what would that say about me? What would everyone think? My own clan would think that I betrayed them for another clan cat that I deemed very important to me.
- "He just...he told me he what? That he loved me? I... don't about this, I didn't think he did--I wasn't anyone special...was I? ...I really didn't know what to say...It felt like I was stuck in-between a gap or something. I...really like Sunstorm too and so I was happy to hear what he had said of course but... how exactly does something like that work? We, being in different clans and the fact that it's completely forbidden and all. I won't deny it, I love him too, and I thought before all this that I was a loyal Snowclan cat, but I always thought this thing was only one-sided, so...you know, there wouldn't be a problem if I didn't spill my heart out about him and instead found a way to get over it and all but...I guess that plan back-fired and now I don't know. Sunstorm's a wonderful friend of mine, and I know that he's good, and trustful--he wouldn't do anything to hurt me because we're best friends, and I wouldn't want any other friend than him - I wouldn't trade him for anything but...this is something that even I don't think we can cover for so long, and if it comes down to it--that any other cat finds out, what would Crystalstar and Kindlestar think? Or all of both Fireclan and Snowclan? Or worse... what would Starclan think of all of this? They'll look down upon two cats that just disobeyed not only the warrior code, but their law. I'm afraid that I'll have to...do what could potentially protect us both and say no..."
" Sunstorm came to Snowclan! I can't say that I had my doubts that he was going to come, and I'm glad I didn't begin to start. Sunstorm...I missed him so much, I'm so happy he came. I wonder how he likes the snow, now that he's finally seen a bunch of it in one place. I can probably guess that it was pretty cold since he was surrounded by all of it, *purr* you Fireclanners wouldn't stand even a brief chance if you were here.
"I said it. I...I told Sunstorm that I loved him. And I feel foolish - because after I said that we should stay friends to protect us both, here I am saying 'nevermind'. But even after all of that, I never would've guessed that he'd still feel the same way after I declined him earlier... or at least pretended that I didn't. I was in love with him, even after the complications, and I always was. But even in the days following after that night, not one has passed when I never felt any remorse for what I said. When Sunstorm came, I had enough of the discretion - I couldn't keep it in anymore without that guilt and dissent flooding in my chest. Starclan knew that. It's one of those feelings that can only be concealed for so long until you couldn't bare it. And by it meant that I spat in Starclan's face and declared their laws irrelevant. It sounds terrible. But regardless, I love Sunstorm - he's my best friend, and the very essence of joy and silliness. Despite our difference in clans, I feel as though I can tell almost anything. I trust him with just about everything. I love him, more than any code, or any star - I don't want to live in regret and denial anymore."
Beetleflight- "Sunstorm said that a cat named Beetleflight caught him when he was on his way to Snowclan. She's the only cat that knows our secret now, but according to what Sunstorm had said about her, I can trust her. I'll have to thank her once I see her."
