Thanks to Nathan's super-mom who sacrificed and loved her children so much. With five children to raise, money was an issue; however, Nathan's mom never lost hope and drove from Utah to California and back to Utah without hesitation so that Nathan could get the best coaching possible. How many mothers would be willing to make this supreme sacrifice? His Gold Medal was truly earned and he deserved it. I am sure that he will continue to figure skate and hope that he will be in the next Olympics to defend his Gold.

I wish I had a mother who took my career seriously without insulting me on what other people do for a living. The parent’s job is to encourage, motivate and provide emotional support, to be excited for when they are making an effort on their craft. Not belittle them based on their career choices.

No country or political system is perfect. No human is perfect. We all have our own opinion and interpretation of moral standard and values. To many Americans, there is even higher standards and values, as summarized by Jesus in these Bible verses on Matthew 22:36-40, that we try to follow : “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."

I think you do not have the total picture. ( 1 ) there is only some special groups that really harbors racial hatred ( 2 ) even minority groups have ( a) discrimination against members of their own racial group - yes - that is possible.... example... in a company panic many years ago, some of those mainland China speaking mandarin tended to interact less with those Chinese immigrant colleagues from Hong Kong ( b ) those hip hop songs full of racial slurs against people of their own African American group ( 3 ) even minority groups have discrimination against other minority groups - as the crime rate in California seems to suggest. So, you cannot say the "US" is doing that to asians and africans, unjustifiably implying white Americans are targeting minority groups. You have to qualify and quantify who is doing what to whom, based on facts and statistics. I am a minority myself and I feel safe in my community - it is a matter of what policy adopted by what local government to address crimes in general and racial crimes in specific so do not make blanket statement that will only divide the country - not sure what your motive is
