1. Will you be shopping on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
2. "5 months of bills...." as the song says. Do you have a budget for the holidays or do you have "5 months of bills..."?
3. What is one food that most people make for Thanksgiving that you do not like?
4. Do you dress up for Thanksgiving?

And I'm glad my grammar is sufficiently advanced that you couldn't possibly criticize it.

because they want to make cookies? And because that way if they want home-made cookies and mom is busy (doing all the laundry, since the kids aren't allowed to help with that), they can just do it themselves.

No. It's not like their is a syllabus of required skills and cookie making is on it.
<< do you think that your children couldn't figure out how to read a recipe if they didn't know how to make a basic cookie recipe at 12/13?>>
Possibly. If a person hasn't ever made cookies, and at 24 decides to make a batch for her fiancee's mother, and it's the first time she's ever done it, and fails .... i bet that 24yo wishes that her mother had allowed her to do it when she was a kid.

No wonder you want to be a child again and think adulthood is crappy.

Organization is one possibility. Slavery is another. Martyrdom is another.

Interesting. I don't *think* I'm my children's mother, I *know* it. And I will take care of my family until death.

I never said only I do the laundry. My dh does it too. Again, not sure why laundry is so difficult to some than others. lol!!

I exercise before work (GASP! The horrors! ) and do volunteer for different organizations. But it's hardly the "majority" of my non-work time, nor is it at the expense of my children. (really, instead of being at the gym/lake from 5:30-6:30 every morning, I guess I should be having quality interaction with my children ... while they're asleep)

they do spend a lot of time with their father. Guess you view that as a bad thing too? Still irrelevant.

Bawwahhaa...a FAILURE???
Why do they need to be prepared in the sense they have to do all those things BEFORE adulthood? Did you not have confidence in your child to know that he could take care of himself after he left home?
So am I, wash your dish off before you put it in the dishwasher.
