TV ClubHouse: Archives: Danis age 30???? For real???
Itekks | Monday, September 16, 2002 - 09:21 pm     Just wanted to know if anyone else thinks that Danielle is older than 30?? She just looks and acts older - I was thinking 36-38. Does anyone know for sure or think the samething? Just a thought. Thanks |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 09:28 am     She's really 30. She has stated that she got pregnant at 16 and her oldest daughter will be turning 14 soon. She finished highschool, married her daughter's father at 20 and immediately got pregnant with her second daughter. She's had a lot of responsibility in her life and is therefore very mature and grounded with a fierce focus on her goals. |
Rozmatoz | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 09:44 am     I am sorry Wcv, I think having the responsibility of raising two children at a young age does not necessarily make someone more grounded or mature. All it means that while she should have been experiencing being a normal teenager (the best years of my life!), concentrating on school, and then a career, she was raising children. I feel it is more responsible for a person to take normal steps in life e.g., school, career, marriage, children instead of jumping past stages. Children are a huge responsiblity and I can only imagine how frustrated I would be if I was 30 years old and had already spent half my life dealing with being a parent, provider and wife. I can tell by some of her conversations that her life as been very stressful and most of the stress derives from making the choices she made at a young age. You can't replace time. 16 is too young for anyone to parent another person and 20 was way too young for me to make a choice about a life-mate. When I think about the guys I dated in highschool and college I am glad that is all I did was date them! To sum it all up, I think Danielle is unhappy, insecure and frustrated. She thinks winning $500 g's will place a value on her life and give her some kind of validation. |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 09:56 am     Roz, while all that is true for many, once Dani got pregnant it seems that she made her choices, she was fortunate to have help from her parents and the whole family must have valued her life enough to stress completing high school and even participating in sport. She's also done college classes at night. I give her credit for also maintaining relationship with her child's father and that they are now together with daughter #2 and obviously trying to make it all work.. I don't think 500gs or 50 will solve any problems for her, but hopefully, from the little glimpses we've had from Javier and Dani, they may value their family even more now. I don't like many of Dani's tactics and machinations.. I think her younger years affected her, gave her the tough intimidating exterior and the survival mode, take no prisoners approach to life (nicole last year was much the same in this way.. I happened to identify more with nicole) BUT.. I wouldn't want to negate what she HAS accomplished. |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 10:42 am     All very true Roz. But once that mistake is made one can not "unmake" it. As Seamonkey has stated so articulately in her above post, the choices she made following that mistake shows that she continued striving toward her own goals and those goals now include family. I think she sees the money, not as a path to happiness, but as a way to provide her family with the security of their own home. How many of us haven't had that dream? The initial post begs the answer, "Is Dani older than her stated age?" I simply tried to provide reasons why she seemed older than her 30 years. |
Buxombabe | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 06:34 pm     simply put...she looks older than 30 because its in her genes...thats all! |
