dyk LOL as a teen we always got the throw down car and we LOVED it. BUt we (my sister, me and my brother) all had jobs well before we had cars. There wasn't a summer we weren't banking so we would have spending money though the year.
dyk I babysat two girls from 6am to 4pm M-Th my soph and junior summers (after those grades)
dyk one of them is getting married now!!! one time the younger booger LOCKED us out of the house
dyk so I locked her in the bathroom - hahaha - it was hysterical, her mom STILL tells that story.

dyk everyone in my house is asleep
dyk I cherish these moments - it's peaceful
dyk even if they are quiet, like during "rest" I don't get the "peace" until they are asleep

DYK Sounds like you were at my house this evening, Nancy?
DYK I asked her if she thought her boss would like for her to daydream all day and expect to get paid?
DYK And we told her that chances are, she will not always have a job that she really loves...and gets paid for?
DYK It is all about her choices ..the ones she is making now?
DYK But apparently, she doesn't see that?
DYK And about the blinders...that describes my Mother perfectly?
DYK She does love Maegan to death...and she would try to tell her it was all ok and be all sympathetic..and to me, she would have it be all my fault?
DYK That I cannot deal with anymore...it's already happened too many times?

dyk the older sister slide a paper plate with some bologna on it under the door - and I nearly peed my pants laughing
dyk which would have bene bad b/c I had her locked in the only bathroom - hahahaha
dyk we used to do projects, play card games, do the movies, the mall and the neighborhood pool - and EVERY DAY we vegged from 1-2 watching Days of Our Lives!!! haha
dyk that was back in the day when Marlena was possessed!!!! (the first time)

dyk if you locked a child in a bathroom nowadays, you'd have social services at your door because of the child's rights
dyk discipline isn't supposed to feel good
For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone.
dyk My MIL has blinders on about the childhood she provided for my DH and his older brother
dyk and the blinders - are SO FRUSTRATING - so much so that I have just stepped away.... but ack, you just can't do that.
dyk that's an area I know not what to say!!!
My Chart
DYK I have told her that I cannot sit there and do her work for her..or that I cannot sit there and make her do her own work?
DYK And that I don't care if she wants to do it or not, that she doesn't have an option?
DYK I think she took that to heart..I really can't make her do it, and she is proving that she can get away without doing it if she doesn't want to?
DYK The thing is this...we've been here and done this at least a dozen times..she will straighten up her act for I don't know, maybe a solid week, then she'll go right back to the way she was?
DYK Just long enough for us to feel like she's doing better?
DYK This time tho, there is no letting up until we get good grades...she knows she has already screwed up her summer?
DYK But I told her that if she doesn't at least try to bring up her grades, it can always get worse than it is now?

dyk lol I know!!
dyk however, my 4 summers of CPS volunteering has taught me a thing or two and I've seen some situations where children were NOT legally able to be removed....
dyk seeing the poverty, the abuse, just the situations these people were in... it really impacted my life.
dyk and so when people are like no don't spank your child in the parking lot for darting into traffic b/c someone might call CPS - I want to slap them.
dyk which WOULD get me arrested for assault and I prob couldn't make an arguement for my disciplining of the idiot there.... hahahah

dyk yep it would suck to be stuck in the hotel room on vacation with a babysitter... doing your HOMESCHOOL work for the summer...
dyk see how mean I am?
My Chart
DYK Oh she won't be doing anything fun while she's at work with me, that's for sure?
DYK We've told her many times that she can always take over the family business one day, that is if we still have it at that time?
DYK Who knows what will happen, but I wouldn't be upset if she did take over when she grows up?
