| Any other fluent French speakers with a special interest in grammar and syntax, like me?

We're not talking weighted blankets, we're talking packing: a child wrapped in freezing wet sheets against his wil... |

The way out of this is to change your thoughts to: "they stare like they are stupid and mean and close minded ". Not only does this thought shift the ... |

Because they feel we're the exact same type of people and they should be able to relate to me and I to them, and it's not possible. They judge ... |
