Women's achievements are so underreported .... in just about anything!


Remember this awesome young girl?

After her death, so many folks slamming the mom, what a bad mother she was for letting her daughter fly. They even slammed the mom because she home schooled, it went on and on. Made me sick. Time magazine had a cover of Jessica with the title "Who killed Jessica?" Efff that foolishness.
