New Book![edit]

I added some new information about Matt/the families book! It was Ghostwritten by Tracy Summer just like the first one... for more info... http://mattroloff.com/shop/ and http://www.amazon.com/Little-Family-Big-Values-Understanding/dp/1416549102/ref=pd_bbs_2/103-3819119-1540651?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1177455286&sr=8-2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.232.99 (talk) 03:22, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed Vandilism[edit]

I removed a paragraph that was clearly vandilism on 4-21-07. Dan wright 13:48, 21 April 2007 (UTC)Dan Wright If It happens again I suggest locking these pages.[reply]

Thank you for removing the offending material. It was so biased, it was almost funny.

Some changes[edit]

I just rewrote and restructured a lot of this article. It is better, but it isn't perfect. It still needs work. Please take a look at it and see if there are any changes you can make to it to make it better, because i'm not sure about some of the wording choices I made. Some of it seems cumbersome, but i'm not sure how it could be improved.

Also, I removed the stub tags from the article, as I don't believe you could say it is a stub anymore, but please feel free to re-tag them if i'm wrong. LLBBooks 05:37, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Little People's Association of America Presidency[edit]

This article doesn't talk about matt being president of the LPA at all. I am not good with this wikipedia business, but it really needs to be added. It's one of his major accomplishments.

Conception[edit]

Is/was it physically possible for the two little people to have sex or did they have to do artificial insemination? I'm almost certain she had to have a C-section, given the practicality of a natural birth would most likely kill her. I'm naturally inquisitive, so please don't take this as a troll, as its not meant to be. --Someguy

Yes it's physically possible, and Amy, as an achrondoplasic dwarf has a fairly normal sized torso and head. Meaning her uterus and such are approximately average size. It's mainly her arms and legs that are shorter than normal. Her pelvis could go either way, so it's really a toss up if a C-section is necessary for achrondoplasic dwarfs or not. 67.185.95.220 (talk) 03:51, 7 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That kind of question isn't really relevant here. Try the reference desk. --cholmes75 ^{(chit chat)} 01:03, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Arrests[edit]

Why is it that people keep on removing the section on his arrests? Voyager3 16:35, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also in this section reference three is incorrect. I can not locate a replacement reference for the statement.

The judge suspended Roloff's drivers license for three years due to his refusal to take a blood alcohol test. This fact was removed from the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.252.246.136 (talk) 02:11, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
