    Look at yourself, you are alone doing the work of three people all by yourself. You are doing household work, farm work and schoolwork. From what I could gather you are not just doing all this work as a formality, but you do seem to do it with utmost dedication.

    A lot has happened in a short time..

    Ummm, what misconception? The question was, why were the horns removed, not who decided to do it. My answer was that it's considered a safety issue, for the people handling the goat, for the goat itself, and for other goats. And it is - 4H doesn't just think they are "prettier" that way, they...
