    Yeah, I knew what you meant, but thanks for spelling it out. I stand by what I said.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      Just wanting to make sure we know your idea of a semi-worthy cause.

            . I cannot express how much your time and money means to me. I can assure you that I am doing everything in my power to create a future for myself, but it has come to the point where I must ask for help.
            But she admits that she hasn't gotten a job yet. That's her dad's fault too. Now, if the falling out with her parents happened exactly how and for the reason she says then that is pretty traumatic (although I don't know if everyone should suddenly pay for her college considering how many people have to put themselves through school who never had daddy paying in the first place). I have a hard time buying her exact version of the story though because teenagers are kind of like kickers.

              I wonder how much of it is BS and what her parents will say/do when they find out what their daughter is saying about them in public.

                For Go Fund Me, is it the case that you don't have to pay what you promise if the entire goal is not met? Cause I want to donate $1M to Catherine Clennan's cause.

                    Is that clear from the description? I thought she was talking about victims of physical abuse or other trauma, but I guess she never spells it out.

                      I'm not saying its that clear, but I was clear on what DH meant.

                        They'll probably start planning how to spend the money they are saving.

                          Her father, Bill Dowdle, who owns a sporting goods store, told the Daily News that his daughter dating a black man may not be his “preference” because of “issues” involved with biracial dating in the South, but that it is not his place to pick who she dates now that she is 18.

                          The elder Dowdle said "it was never about race," that he is not a racist and that his daughter’s statements about race are “a justification and gave her the moral high ground.”

                          He said that he and his wife would accept whomever their daughter wanted to date, but that he disapproved of both Michael and a previous boyfriend in part because Allie had started seeing them in secret.

                          The father said that he decided to cut off her college money because she has been spoiled and “it became obvious that she needed to go out in the world and grow up.”

                          Who knows what really happened, but this comment on the Gofundme page quoted in the article rings truer to me than either story:

                          Sending a white girl from a middle-class family to college is not fighting racism. In fact, expecting to avoid work, student loans, etc. and be treated like a hero for dating a black guy seems pretty racist to me.
