Real babies give something back to those who are paying attention. <BR/><BR/>Sam is so lucky to have you as a mom, and Wing Nut Lee Fa Mulan Whatever Ha Lu SO lucky you were his grandma. It sounds like an absolute effin nightmare. I think you should lock the teachers, the principal, and the assistant principal in for a Wing Lee Weekend.<BR/><BR/>Congrats to your son Sam for toughing it out. Remind him that when the day arrives, the real thing is quite different, and actually rewarding, otherwise he wouldn't be here to hear you tell it.Mando Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08086172912612587749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-81548272107931913502007-05-23T08:49:00.000-05:002007-05-23T08:49:00.000-05:00LOL, gene!Maybe if Wing Nut's cry sounded like Ros...LOL, gene!<BR/>Maybe if Wing Nut's cry sounded like Rosie ranting about teen sex...

Now I would fill the bath tub, tie a rock around Wing Nut's neck and dump him in. <BR/><BR/>If you want to deter teens from having sex put them all under hypnosis and give them a suggestion that every time they are near a girl and start to "feel the urge" that the girl immediately looks like Rosie O'Donnel. Even a teen wouldn't hit that. :-OGene Bachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12266471278081134491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-24822377635849396452007-05-21T16:40:00.000-05:002007-05-21T16:40:00.000-05:00I can't believe that Little Wing Li grew such a fo...I can't believe that Little Wing Li grew such a formidable moustache and goatee ins merely a weekend.

My children are now safely into their 40s, but I remember well my 19 year old self with infant and equally young husband who thought everything to do with said infant was "women's work" (why did this marriage fail?). He relented a smidge the night after three weeks of colic, the baby cried and I threw the helpful "Meowwww ... it's awake again" cat at the wall.Durward Discussionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15023629504094283860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-25990003457611294052007-05-20T09:16:00.000-05:002007-05-20T09:16:00.000-05:00WS, That may be true, but I have to say that if th...WS, That may be true, but I have to say that if the damn baby had a more realistic schedule it would have been more of a learning experience. After all, as parents, we "learn" our babies and anticipate their needs. This bolsters our confidence and is rewarding. This random quiz show of crying was about as unrewarding as it gets.

Certainly that was what struck me first—what a great, supportive family all of you are. Otherwise, it did seem a lesson in futility, which I guess is a part of parenting, no? By that I mean sometimes it is never known why a baby cries, just sweet relief when it stops. It all makes a great story, though!<BR/><BR/>WSWayward Sonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16169683029085558375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-84348429203882334112007-05-19T08:41:00.000-05:002007-05-19T08:41:00.000-05:00Wing Nut was lucky he wasn't drop kicked out the b...Wing Nut was lucky he wasn't drop kicked out the back door on several occasions. In fact, the school must know how horrid it is because parents have to sign a contract acknowledging that the piece of crap is $450 if broken. Large fines seem to be a deterrant to shaken baby syndrome in this case!<BR/>LucyWomen on the Vergehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048207912750733316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-31418227049342610982007-05-19T08:19:00.000-05:002007-05-19T08:19:00.000-05:00LOL, if it had been me I'd have probably taken Win...LOL, if it had been me I'd have probably taken Wing Nut and decapitated him!

Try to freak kids out when it comes to having a baby of their own. If it worked better, it might actually accomplish that, but anybody with half a brain, or have ever dealt with a baby brother or sister (or a friends baby brother or sister) knows it's an arbitrary piece o' crap.Barthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06715107202766657600noreply@blogger.com
