"I really hate MD, D.C. and any of you ppl that like it have poor taste or are very simple."
Obviously this all really has nothing to do with Maryland and everything to do with living. Stop complaining about Maryland. You can leave you know. Don't tell me you're staying for Elijah, as the idea of 'you being around for him as he grows up' obviously isn't one you cling to, or are willing to make sacrifices for. If it is, however, then make up your mind, be a proverbial man about it, and stop whining.

>You can leave you know

may I, for a moment, be a parrot-teacher? "I wish I could just go back to South Africe and get out of here"

>as the idea of 'you being around for him as he grows up' >obviously isn't one you cling to

although I may not "cling" to this ideal, I have, by and large, made much reforms to myself and my lifestyle to practice this ideal. please be informed and educated about a system (in this case, the system being me) before commenting about it.

also, I think it may take much translation of personality before you would have any concept of what it is like to be a "man" proverbial or not, and furthermore a parent.

think about it.

i wouldn't post any such comments (or say them either) about what sacrifices a person is willing to make for their son. that is, until you have a child and are qualified to make any such assumption.
