Is It the Same?

Here in quebec the government is really
picky with naming your kid. My sil was
told she could not spell her son's name
deecon (usually deacon) and another friend
of mine wanted to put ~ over the a in
thomas but they did not want to let her
either. My sil finally got them to agree
by signing a paper saying she wouldn't
ever change his name.
With trey I wanted his name to be
michael-trey and they did not allow the -
. I find it very weird that my
government wants to tell us how to name
our kids. Is it like that anywhere
else??

I know in ontario a guy I know wanted to
give his son only one letter for a middle
name and they did not want to let him.
But there was a big sad story behind it
apparently and he went and told them the
story and they let him. I don't know the
story though.
It is weird that the government cares what
babies are named.

 .I think that's
ridiculous. You can name your kid
anything you want here in the states.
Hence why our celebs are naming their kids
words that they probably made up or
something.... Lol, but .I think the
parents (no matter what the name is or how
its spelled) should have complete
say over what they name their own child.
If someone tried to tell me that .I could
name my child what .I wanted to, .I'd
clock them right in the face &tell
them to shove off. Haha.

Canada can never control how you state
your name or what not.. I mean I dont
know canada law or anything like that but
you can sue them for being in wayyy too
far in control for parent who have their
babies and they cant name them..
My son have 2 different middle name.. Its
john-william and if I was living up in
quebec.. I would seriously ignored what
they were saying and if they got a
problem.. Take them to a bigger state
where they dont really want a fight lol..
Im sure theres alot of parent that doesnt
like the law .. And really want to fight
their freedom of how they want to name
their child and what not.
I totally agree.. It is unfair.. But
when you go to new york or something..
medical question them.. Write your sons
name how you want it to be lol .. Who
cares.. Or teach your son how to write
his name ... The way you want it to be.
Lol .. I wouldnt give a crap about
them.
Ppl are intimidated by the gov't..
Actually I think the gov't should be
intimidated by thousands of parent who
really are angry with them.

That isn't right in my opinion. What if
you wanted to use both last names, say
your and yours and the father of the baby
with a slash in between, I use that with
my maiden and my married name with a slash
between both. Your country might really
sh*t with my dr as one of his son's
middle name is the same as his wives
maiden name which is black which is
different but it is their choice. My
.Mom's middle name was .Florence but she
did not like it and she had it changed
legally to .K beings it was the 1st letter
of her maiden name.I think you should have
a right to name and spell your baby's name
whatever you want as long as it is not
cruel.

I never knew that happens in quebec!
Interesting, yet I would find it extremely
irritating. I am a bit oppositional
defiant, so although I am normally boring
with names, I would probably push the
envelope with the government just to see
how much I could get away with. I would
pick a very "out there" name and try to
convince them why my child "needed" to
have it. If it didn't work, I would try
something else until I got my way. This
is probably the reason why I sucked at
public school.- hated being told what to
do and is probably the reason why teachers
couldn't stand me (now I work in a
school with kids who were just like me -
go figure).

Wow, to me public school was a lot better
than private. I started out at private
and went 8 years of my life. Then I
changed to public and they were so much
more lenient (sp)
then I switched back to private (my family
moved around a lot)
u had to wear a belt with your pants or
else you got detention, couldn't wear more
than one ear ring in each ear, couldn't
wear make up, couldn't have your skirt up
to a certain length (had to be past your
finger tips) and the list goes on! I was
so thankful to switch back to public lol

I said public school because I wanted to
avoid saying college. It can sound so
snubbery online ... If snubbery is even
a word? I did do much better in college
because I was paying for it; I had to
force myself to conform to what the
teachers wanted in order to make the grade
- it was so irritating.
Concerning school, it's interesting that
in some districts in phoenix az the kids
do have to wear uniforms with belts.
Probably because the kids were wearing the
pants a little long. This rule just made
the kids rebel. The teachers had to be
very strict with the kids....I ignored
because it had nothing to do with
education (unless the boys were wooing the
girls who were in short skirts). Also my
role was not a discipinarian - I was not,
am not a teacher. They were pretty
strict with short and skirt length as
well. A few girls were sent home for
having shorts a little too short. We are
not talking daisy dukes just shorts two
inches above your knees.
I went to private school for the first
three years in life. During my first five
minutes in public school - 4th grade - a
boy came up to me and said you are a
f***ing b****, out of the blue! Wow that
was a shock! Welcome to the real world!
The boy ended up being in my class and
was thrown in a trash bin by a teacher the
next school year for swearing up a storm
to him. I wonder what ever happened to
willie. He was a nice kid, really. You
just had to learn a whole other vocabulary
to comprehend him.
Sorry, complete off topic tangent!! It
is late and I am tired and hungry again.
This will be my 3rd dinner tonight. How
much can an only 8 week pregnant person
eat? At this rate I will gain 100 pounds
before baby. Perhaps it's psychological
right now.
