Dear Creamy,

Have you tried telling them that part of the problem with the world it that they treat their children like incompetent mental patients and that will in no way prepare them for the real world where naked lady tattoos, and naked ladies, will be a big part of their existence?

I would also explain that she to is in fact naked under those clothes, barring some sort of never nude issue, and that if she if uncomfortable with that fact it is more of a statement on her inability to process her real world issues and not that of her children.

Or you could just make fart noises with your mouth and drool.

That usually works for me when I use public transportation.

Lol.

and actually........The BEST advice I have gotten as a parent is, in fact, that kids are more akin to wild animals and the mentally insane than they are to small adults.

You cannot reason with even a 9 year old because their brain hasn't fully formed, they are just becoming aware of their own mortality, etc.

Some HEAVY sh!t.

1,2,3 that is all I say if my kids misbehave. If I get to 3, PUNISHMENT!

I seldom get to 2.









GOD DAMMIT CREAMY!!!!!!! WHY T F DO YOU QUOTE AND THEN POST BEFORE THE QUOTE??????????

+1000 this. Also, I know I dont have kids and thus yada yada but do you remember people being so terrified of kids and germs?? I grew up in the 80s, we KNEW about germs then, and I dont ever remember someone freaking the freak out because a puppy licked the baby's foot. Some of these kids are going to go outside and step out of their plastic bubbles and their heart is going to pop like a whitehead because they have 0 built up immunity to germs.

I only mention this because every time I have a bad day and watch a cute kid with dog video on youtube some helpy helperton has a fit that the dog's mouth has germs in it. Every time I read these I become a little more sure we will end up like the Romans.

Also, Tx, thank you for creating a site with both "Add Buddy" and "Block User" buttons. Both are so useful!


Normally I block idiots who use the reverse apache quote.....but I'll make exception.

And I have never known a parent that didn't think their first child was the most fragile, breakable thing on the planet, but that same parent will tell their 3rd child (at the age of 2) to go outside (unsupervised for lords sake) and play in the mud with the dog.
 
Cheezy I seriously do it because I love watching you freak out about it. :-D Hopefully if/when I have kids I will actually take advice from some of the parents I respect. No need reinventing the wheel. You know the little bugger is going to be a holy terror though, as karmic retribution for being such a terrible little kid.

Not to get myself in further trouble, but I bet $1 that the anti-homebrew folks in the Alabama state senate have or will at least once invoke "our children." I am not watching the proceedings because I know I will birth a rage baby.
 
Another example of what I mean is the guy who tries to cut in line and says "I have my kids in the car."

Thats fine if I have a cart full of stuff and you are looking to buy diapers and milk, but if you're trying to cut a whole line of people with a full cart I think using your kids as a crowbar is pretty douchey behavior.

Or the guy that cuts you on the taxi line and thinks its cool because his kids are there. One time I spoke up about it (I tend to grin and bear the small stuff because you never know when you are dealing with a psycho) and this ******** looked at me and literally pointed to his kids.

Again, I'm not trying to tell anyone how to raise their kids, I'm just saying that certain techniques parents use on their kids make my life less pleasant at times.

Quick answer to that is to call the cops. Abandoning children in a vehicle is probably a crime in most areas. Use your cell phone and do it right in front of him.
 
I have one thing to add......Baby on board signs.

Yeah I was totally going to ram you, you moron. Now that I see you have a sticker, I'll definitely think twice about it.

OK, I've thought twice about it, I am now going to ram you harder. Buckle up and prepare to meet thy doom, you pillock! ;)

Of course, there is always something worse. "Caution show dogs in transit" WTF!? Seriously?
 
As a parent of three (8,9,10) I encourage my kids to get dirty and play outside. The best quote is from dory in finding nemo " if you don't let anything happen to him how is anything ever gonna happen to him" . They are kids not veal , and need to learn from their accomplishments and mistakes.
 
Cheezy I seriously do it because I love watching you freak out about it. :-D

Lol. It just makes for odd reading, I read your response, and then what you responded to.

Not to get myself in further trouble, but I bet $1 that the anti-homebrew folks in the Alabama state senate have or will at least once invoke "our children." I am not watching the proceedings because I know I will birth a rage baby.

If you do, make sure to shelter it from puppy kisses since they has germses.
