I know, right?!  They turn into bratty creatures. You can't beat 'em so I've resorted to brainwashing. Me: You want a new game you say? Youngest: Yeah, Mom! I even saved up $2! Me: Video games will make you fat and they secretly tell you to do bad things to your parents. You wouldn't want to hurt me, would you? You know how much I love you  Youngest: No way, Mommy! I love you bunches! darn those video games! I would never allow you to spend daddy's hard-earned money on something so hideous! I'll just go clean my room so I can find my little skateboard dudes and play with them. You're the best mommy!(commence the hugs) Or so I'd like to think When you learn how to do this make sure to send me the handbook!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ashelyn went down to my Dad's with me the other day and Wanda had fixed a pie. She asked Ashelyn if she wanted a piece...Ashelyn responded by telling her that she didn't want the pie with all the pelicans (pecans) on it |

I'm actually @ at a cross between steamin' mad and hysterical laughter.
My oldest who is 12 and his best friend from across the street(who's 12 also)and best friend's brother(who's 8) just talked my 6 year old into getting butt naked, with nothing but a jock strap on(oldest's old one)and running across the backyard while being filmed for a potential youtube vid.
I'm trying to yell at the older boys while attempting to NOT LMAO as my oldest laughs his off. I asked my youngest why he let his brother do that to him. He says, "Because he paid me $10."
And the kicker is...that's not even our digi cam. It's the best friend's parent's. And we are still trying to figure out how to erase it!!!

We have a couple we haven't seen in a while coming up to bar-b-q tomorrow. They will be spending the night so I decided to put them up in oldest son's room. I washed his linens and was making his bed and he told me he loved the smell of fresh sheets and thanked me. When I told him about the couple coming to stay he says, Why do they have to stay in my room? They better not leave any love stains on my sheets!" My little one asks, "What the heck is love stains?"
I just left the room.

I knew someone would blame me I was just as shocked as the next mom, but not entirely. He got off the school bus at age 7 or 8, came in and asked me "Mom, what's a dirty sanchez?" He's 12 and goes to school. He also has numerous friends that are 13 and 14 that go to school with him and play on the same sports teams. He likes movies, plays video games, and sports. Any number of places he could have picked up on stuff. I guess I could try putting him in a bubble but he'd just pop it |

I understand...Ashelyn is the exception to the rule on the 11 year olds...I had to sit her down and make her listen about starting her period! She kept on saying 'I don't wanna hear that!' ~ I told her she might not wanna hear it, but that isn't gonna stop it Plus the fact that she passes out when she sees blood might give us some problems...SO I sorta wanted her to have a heads up there  I hope it is a LONG LONG time before that happens. We had to go and get her 6th grade shots the other day and she ended up getting 3 of the 4 ~ she got the DTP booster, the chickenpox booster (grrrrrr I thought this one was over),and the meningitis one. The only one I didn't get was the Gardislyl (spelling?) for HPV. She came out thanking me over and over, and then looked at me and asked me why I didn't get that one ~ I told her that it was for a virus that you can get when you become sexually active...she looked at me and said "you don't ever have to worry about that!" |

On a more serious note, I'm happy to hear you didn't make her get the guardasil. I don't know the statistics or have links to statistics but I have read on various medical websites about girls getting very, very sick from getting that shot. No way should it be government mandated!

There is NO way either of my girls was getting that shot...the nurses sort of try to push it, but I told them no both times. I told them that if circumstances change that I may think about it, but right now neither of them need it...

Right there with ya. When my daughter is old enough she can make the decision to get it. Im not going to force something on her that could kill her. I dont care how small the odds are. |

My daughter and I go through Indian Health Services and they keep sending me letters that my daughter needs to get the gardasil shot and I keep telling them HELL NO....I want it to be out for awhile before I even think of getting it for her. There are 100s of HPV viruses and the shot only covers 4 of them...and I have heard of girls getting very sick from it and some have died...I am not going to risk my daughter because of something she might get when she is older!

Not to sound inconsiderate but I am SO very thankful I do not have daughters. You moms with daughters have to be so worried you're borderline paranoid. I worry with having sons. I'd be totally insane if I had daughters. There's so much to consider with girls. Periods, boobies, sex, boys, b!tchy attitudes, mood swings, pregnancy, b!tchy little friends, and the list goes on! I don't have the patience for it. I'd stink at it bigtime! My oldest has this snotty, b!tchy-acting girl who's been all over him like white on rice for a couple years now. I can't stand her. I wish she'd move to another school district. Yeah, it's that bad. We were at the fair last night, sitting and talking with Mother. Up walks this girl I didn't recognize at first. She looked at me like, "What? you lookin' at?" and walked past me to sit with my niece. I realized who it was right away. The little brat was pumping my niece for info on oldest son, all the while promising to ride rides with her. I turned around and told my niece to tell my son and "Allison" they should get their portrait drawn together and winked. I walked off to get a lemonade and I heard catgirl say, "Who the hell is Allison?" |

Girls are so mean ~ I tore into Caitlyn a couple of weeks ago because I thought she was being mean to one of her other friends. The other friend is overweight and Caitlyn and her have been best friends since 1st grade. Anyway, since Caitlyn has gotten older she has slimmed down, started working with the football team (as a manager, my niece is the coach's wife), and has a boyfriend and she has sort of outgrown her friend. She told me that "Carol" was telling lies about her, that "Samatha" told her so. I told her that I knew better than that "Carol" was to sweet of a girl to do that ~ anyway I sorta let it slide for a couple of weeks. Ashelyn and "Carol's" little sister are best friends also so I went to drop Ashelyn off at her house to let her play and "Carol" came out to talk to me and told me that Caitlyn wouldn't even talk to her on the phone...that did it!
I came home sat Caitlyn down and had a good long talk with that girl! I told her that no matter how many friends she had, she always had room for 'Carol'! I told her that her world may have changed and that she may have more friends and be more popular now, but that Carol's world was still the same. I asked her to think about how she would feel if 'Carol' committed sucide, or if something else happened to her. I think she thinks of Caitlyn as her only friend...
Needless to say, she called Carol that night and told her how sorry she was for acting like a jerk! They are doing just fine now...
I remember this age, and I can tell you ~ boys are SO much easier than this!!!

I have that problem with keely. 99% of her friends are boys but there is one boy in the group she is mean too. Really mean, I can tell when she is talking to him on the headseat while playing the 360. She has a different tone than with the others. I get on to her and she says... there is always one person that a group of friends will pick on and he is it...  Im actually kinda glad she hangs out with boys though. A group of girls would be much worse. |

There are alot of bushes and trees in the lot next door to the house and the boys like to play in them because it has little tunnels in that mess. Anyway, my youngest was playing in there yesterday and came running out of this mess of bushes and says.. I found a crime scene! what? He says he found broken glass and a belt buried in the dirt so it must be a crime scene. guess thats what I get for letting him watch the news. |

I will start worrying when he wants to start interrogating suspects.. I'm sure his sister is at the top of his list. |
