georgeb Posted February 23, 2006 #226 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Oh, btw, I loved the comment on poster made (post #37, i believe)...something along the lines of: "People worry endlessly about how to guard the card that serves as a key to their safe, but, will leave their children unattended..." great point! Come on. I have my kids locked up in a little box and I take it everywhere I go. I would never let them out of my site. It's unthinkable. When they turn 18 they can have a 800pm curfew, until then, back into the box.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeb Posted February 23, 2006 #227 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Oh you hit a nerve alright, I was so going to stay out of this but I just couldn't after this one! You said your a mother to how many children? You expect them to behave like adults, that's the most absurd thing I have ever heard. As far as training , it is children you have not animals :eek: !!!

PaigeM Posted February 23, 2006 #228 Share Posted February 23, 2006 We let our 12 year old stay with my 7 year old, so we could go out after 10 pm. no problems (other then by 12 year old complaining that he wanted to go to the midnight buffet - so sometimes I would come in at midnight so he and dh could eat) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaigeM Posted February 23, 2006 #229 Share Posted February 23, 2006 we just had a mother in my town leave her 3 children in the car while she went shopping at a kmart. ( the considerate inbesele ). Don't you think you should know how to spell imbecile before you actually call someone an imbecile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psycoma Posted February 23, 2006 #231 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Don't you think you should know how to spell imbecile before you actually call someone an imbecile. While I appreciate what the poster was trying to accomplish by sharing this story with us, I'm pleased to know I was not the only one experiencing mental 'nails on chalkboard' while I was reading it...I wanted to reach through the screen and start error correcting things.

N.FL Cruisers Posted February 23, 2006 #232 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Don't you think you should know how to spell imbecile before you actually call someone an imbecile. Community guidelines give anyone the right to misspell without getting harassed. "Spelling and Grammar Errors It is important to remember that everyone makes mistakes at one time or another, and that there are many users who use English as a second language, especially on our Cruise Boards. There are also a number of people who suffer from learning disabilities and who have difficulty noticing their spelling mistakes. Do not make comments on the spelling and grammar of other users. It is simply not a productive expenditure of energies." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*CruiseFan* Posted February 23, 2006 #234 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I have a question! Are the OP and her friend she posted this about who has been replying friends anymore? I can't believe this thread turned into a debate of fat vs. thin. To the poster who discussed her daughter who is overweight (the one who took offense initially) yet healthy - my sister is overweight with a slow metabolism yet had major thyroid problems. I'm sure you've had that checked, but once she started eating really healthy and exercising it went away. It sounds like your daughter has the exercising thing down pat! I'm sure she eats healthy as well but thyroid is always something to think about. To further prove your point - I am 5'3 1/2 and anywhere from 110-115, my sister is 5'2and significantly more (yet she's lost 107!). We have the same mother and her father never had a thyroid problem - OUR MOTHER has one, but I didn't inherit that. I also inherited a fast metabolism whereas my sister, did not. Soooo, it's not necessarily what people are feeding their kids (though most people let their kids get fat), it's genetics, the way the body works, etc. :) Swimming 1 1/2 5 days a week. Damn. That's a workout (and I am being 100% serious, I get tired after 10 laps and I work out 5 or 6 days a week!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
