Busy with my daughter's cheerlearding and work.
How have you been?![]()
Same here angie, minus the cheerleadingMy girls don't get involved in activities like that. The closest they do in high schools here are "majorettes" in marching bands, but non of them are interested in those. The eldest is an "official emo" or young Goth and the middle one is preparing to leave primary education before entering high school next year
The youngest is still in prep school

I couldn't handle having more the one kid I can barely find the energy now always on the go never stops.
Yes having a career and not just a job is hard with young children.
The nanny service we rely on is well organised and treats our family as "real" customers with needs and expectations (sorry for being technical) which ARE important regarding children's well being and safety. Atleast, they can be trusted as well as expensive, but well worth it![]()
When it comes to kids if you love and care for them I don't think you can put a monetary value on it I know if I thought my daughter needed something I would find away pay for it. It's so sad there's many people who don't care.
Exactly angieBut one must take care not to "spoil" a child, that is give in too much. TRT and I did this with his daughter, my adopted and eldest I mentioned.
Because she was brought into the UK from the Netherlands, out of the care of her mother, who is Dutch and TRT's ex-wife, we tended to give-in to her demands a great deal to make her feel comfortable. She is intelligent and realised that she could use these demands to her advantage (still does a little today) and created herself a level of self-importance and disrespect, until we both realised and had to face the problem head on.
We made it clear after I had my youngest she had sisters to share things with. When you just have one child, you can focus your full attention on that one child...
Hey now I spoil my daughterlol
My daughter knows no means no and how to work for something she wants also knows her mommy got her back always!
Sorry angieDid not mean to offend
There are so many different behaviours children develop
Ours just learned to take advantage

They all take advantage of it.
No problem angie![]()
Let's change the subject
Have you been sexed lately g/f and... was it good?![]()
Hey y'all!
Ohhh... are we discussing parenting styles tonight?
I will be the first one to admit I am a crap mom. I tell my kids that I cover the bare necessities and it is up to them to come up with the money for other things that they want. [laughs] This normally entails going over to grandparents for some 'work'.
That being said, my kids are freaking me out a little tonight. My youngest cleared and set the table before dinner. And then cleared all our plates afterwards. My oldest is sitting down to finish up some homework.. and here is the worrying part... without fussing. Hmm... I think they are getting ready to ask for something.![]()

Today, we have been touring all around the local "flea markets" or "car boot sales" in the area. We were looking for something old and/or unique that someone might have cast off, yet retains a value at an auction. An idea TRT and our eldest. Dreams of making lots of money it seemsPersonally, it was interesting, but it was so cold today.
