Is there a particularly strong opinion you once held, but now feel the exact opposite about? If so, what?

Oh yeah, when I was 14, 15, I was very...I probably would've belonged well in the 60s because at the tie I was pretty much anti-authority, hated the military, hated the army, called it legalized killing, and it's funny because I have never done drugs in my life, but looking back at the views I had then I wonder 'what the hell was I thinking?' whereas today, the military the men and women who serve our country have my utmost respect for what they do.

Santa Claus and the divinity of Jesus Christ. Lost faith in the first around age 7 and the latter around 10-11.

Before becoming a mom, I always "knew" that career would always come before family. How stupid was I?

Infidelity. Over the past two years, I've learned a lot about setting the standards for each and every relationship specifically.

I don't know if I call it a "180" change, but I've become less in favor of abortion over time. I wouldn't wanna see RvW repealed and still believe it's a woman's "choice" and all that shit, I just don't agree with the choice.

Oh, forgot this one. I'm slowly becoming less and less tolerant of people who make absolutely no effort to speak English when living here. And while the USA does not have a specific official language, Massachusetts certainly does. I think my opinions changed when I went to Germany. It's difficult to learn a second language, yes, but there has to be an effort made to respect the national heritage. Language is a big part of that.
And although most Germans speak fluent English, I never expected them to. Of course with American or British friends I spoke English, but with the Germans, I spoke German. Knowing how badly I worked my ass off, it annoys me when there are people who can't speak English but still have customer service jobs.
