I'm not perfect, but no...couldn't talk that way to my kids.<br /><br />And I dare not say who I would give anon advice to...that's how paranoid I am, that they would somehow see my comment. Yup.

Those girls are so overscheduled it's not even human.

And it's because they are lazy. They sit on the couch and yell threats to the kids, but they never once follow through. And the kids know it. They take the yelling and do what they want because they know mom and dad aren't going to do a darn thing about it. It's so frustrating to me! I want to shake them and say, if you said you were going to _____ if they did _________, you'd better do it, or they are going to think they can keep doing these things. They also run wild through the neighborhood, and I'm sure they drive the neighbors nuts.Lara Neveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351324888724799014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83995894561612427.post-57215081815843553682010-04-21T07:47:42.245-04:002010-04-21T07:47:42.245-04:00My youngest sister.

Instead of letting BET be her guide. Her daughter is only 3, and talks and dances like a video vixen:(<br /><br />Hugs and Mocha,<br />SteshaSteshahttp://www.hotchocolatecaramelmocha.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83995894561612427.post-39805038654775455882010-04-20T21:05:22.740-04:002010-04-20T21:05:22.740-04:00Our neighbors...who have a 4YO who is never watche...Our neighbors...who have a 4YO who is never watched.

I'd also tell her all that makeup makes her look like a dragqueen and we all know the real reason why she left her husband. Oh, my bad, you did say advice about parenting :-).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83995894561612427.post-59920851322300820292010-04-20T10:36:38.364-04:002010-04-20T10:36:38.364-04:00Ok, a "friend" of mine.

They do nothing for themselves and expect others to do everything for them and give them whatever they want.<br />I want to tell him that he is NOT doing them a favor. People are NOT going to be able to stand these girls and no one will ever be able to make them happy. <br />Sigh. I would like to tell him that, but won't. :)shttp://www.simplysneaky.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83995894561612427.post-42350366227521449222010-04-20T09:43:31.618-04:002010-04-20T09:43:31.618-04:00A friend is getting ready to marry a man that alre...A friend is getting ready to marry a man that already has 2 kids. Like my situation, their Bio-Mom is a criminal and he is just starting the custody fight for them. My friend is scared.<br /><br />I would (and have) told her to not give up on the kids. It's not easy and there will be times that you can't stand what "they" did to your life but you can't give up on them.<br /><br />They deserve more in life...they just don't know it yet.Lindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01001887689493380499noreply@blogger.com
