A Brief Bit of Parental Venting

AAARRRRRRRRRRRGH. Sweet child, I realize you're a seven-year-old boy, but would you please quit arguing with us every time we tell you not to do something? Especially -- and I want you to pay extra attention to this particular point -- especially when it puts you in the position of explaining to us at length on topics you know almost nothing about??? Just. Stop. It's okay to say, "Oh, I didn't know that," adjust your behavior, and carry on. I promise.

  1. This could also be applied to sweet 14 year old daughter, but I would add a whole lot of eye rolling.

  2. Give me a few more years, I'm sure I'll get the eye-rolling, too.

Feel free to leave comments; it lets me know that people are actually reading my blog. Interesting tangents and topic drift just add flavor. Linking to your own stuff is fine, as long as it's at least loosely relevant. Be civil, and have fun!
