When they come home from school they just throw their backpack and coat on their floor and their MOM picks it up and puts it away. And they get to play on the computer on non-educational sites and play video games whenever they want and not just on Saturdays!!!The Texas Bakershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02831737905620171326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25335708.post-70559424620016139462010-05-19T08:33:10.838-07:002010-05-19T08:33:10.838-07:00Maybe you should have the older ones read The Glas...Maybe you should have the older ones read The Glass Castle and then rethink their stance.

Must be a child complaint. <br />That spring when she came home they ask her to speak again and she told them she had changed her mind about her mother. She was one of a few girls that knew how to do things. :)The two old crowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18270301814861089432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25335708.post-55629079272855253832010-05-17T07:32:52.864-07:002010-05-17T07:32:52.864-07:00Can I join the Mean Mommy clan?

I may be a relatively new mommy, but here are a list of my qualifications:<br /><br />- My 3-year-old already has chores<br />- I enforce a strict bed time and will extend that into curfews when my kids are older<br />- Davy is restricted to TV on Saturday mornings, and only one show in the evening during the week. There is absolutely no TV allowed on Sunday<br />- I do time outs, hand-me-down clothes, and regularly weed through toys and get rid of them so as not to spoil my kids<br />- I limit treats to special occasions which may or may not include holidays<br />- Daily baths are mandatory, and intermittent wiping of the face and hands is conducted throughout the day<br />- "Please", "Thank you", and "Yes ma'am" are not options, they're required in regular conversation<br /><br />Does that make me a mean mommy, as I aspire to be? Please let me join!!<br /><br />Caroine :)Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10163766807852531860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25335708.post-14818954779620843612010-05-17T04:44:41.205-07:002010-05-17T04:44:41.205-07:00Your poor, poor children.

AND they're OLD! and UGLY!<br /><br />AND I don't buy sugar coated cereals! And I have curfew hours! And there is some music and movies and CLOTHES that simply are beyond the pale. <br /><br />And they have to WORK for their money!!!!!!

I make my kids eat vegetables, clean their rooms, and go to their dad's. I also make them wear seatbelts, not hit each other, and not use the Internet if I am not home. Oh, and I forgot...there are NO OTHER MOMS that ask their kids to do chores. Nope. Not one. I am the only one.<br /><br />See... we are two of a kind! The meanest mommy clan!<br /><br />Love ya.I have a good lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14987473253443228853noreply@blogger.com
