I am sick of irl people. Most of you know about my #1 being on the ban list of the very chrisitan conservative family here because their son liked her (I guess they never read Romeo and Juliet). Now #2 is being told her friend will no longer be allowed to talk to her after June ten. And if the infraction is so bad, why allow any communication at all? Why wait til June ten? I need to call the mother and ask *** but I am not sure I can keep my cool. I may see her tomorrow, so I will ask her then. If not, I will see her on Thursday when her daughter is throwing my daughter a surprise party. Why are grown ups so childish. And what could my sheltered, wholesome, Christian, homeschooled, funny, sweet, girl have done to make this mom want to ban all communication between the girls? And if it was so bad, and she is my friend, why wouldn't she mention it to me?
And furthermore, why does it bother me so much that people I don't like have a beef with my kids who I think are innocent of whatever these things are these people have against them?
maybe buy a motorcycle and start cussing, they're think you're "normal" and less of a threat?

I agree, pretty nutty. I wonder what exactly they're afraid of. And an end date? After a surprise party? what?
I am up "early" so I can prepare for sunday school, then we're off to church and then to a bbq with all the people I went on my mission trip with, really looking forward to seeing everyone.
Oh fw that is so odd to have an end of friendship date. I hope it works out for your dd, how is she taking it?
It was supposed to be rainy here today but it actually looks pretty nice out, doing some quick cleaning and then out to enjoy it

Her feelings are hurt, but she doesn't like the mom so she isn't that upset. She told the other girl, well, see you when we're 18. From what I gather, my daughter would ask to talk to her daughter on fb chat. Her daughter doesn't have a fb page, so the mom would let her chat and see news, etc from the moms account. My daughter, it seems, doesn't engage the mom before asking to talk to the daughter. It seems it goes like this:
My daughter: can damaris come to the computer?
Other mom: you are so rude, you should speak to me first and be polite and say hello.
My daughter: sorry mrs other mom. Hello. Can damaris come to the computer.
Other mom: sure.
So,I guess after a few of these exchanges, the other mom is done with my daughter. The girls talked and the other daughter said her mom is trying to teach my daughter some manners.
LOL show her a manner. I can't say when I'll let my kids have their own facebook, if ever, but that's just insane. Reminds me of Noah's friend Tony. Noah has to call Tony's parents, "miss Barb, and Mr. Scott".. lol ***.
Going to shampoo the dining room carpet today, and the hallway rugs probably because I"m a genius and thought that white rugs would be a good idea in my entry hallway.

Im sorry, but that is ridiculous. Theyre not allowed to be friends anymore because your daughter dosent engage the mother before asking to speak to her friend?
Was she never a teenage girl herself? I never wanted to chit chat with my friend's parents, my kids friends are the same. They talk to me when need be, but if you phone rings its always "Hi its ___ is ____ there?" or sometimes not even that, one of Sunny's friends its always "Hello" "Sunny, yeah?" "Okay i'll get her"

adding this here because i posted on f/b but don't have all of you. this is my twin grandsons garret and cody, age 2 1/2. be sure to have your sound on -- it is precious..
Yep. Called the other mom. Hats what it is all about. She wants to be addressed and spoken to. I suppose it would be the same if it were the phone. She went on about how rude and disrespectful it was and how she wants to be shown respect. Personally, I think it is a preference because my kids respect for her doesn't change. She can be Eddie Haskell fake or be who she is, which I didn't tink was that bad, but the real level of respect doesn't changed.
Now,to be petty, I will say that I find this woman rude. I like her kids just fine. But she does this thing with parties. She will have birthday parties for her kids or Christmas parties or like this surprise party for my kid. That's all nice, but she will often have them pot lucks. I love pot lucks,I think it is a great way to get people together, but then she also has a gift list guide. I think it is either one or the other. Bring food or a gift, but not both. I tink that is rude. So there.
wow that mom sounds rather controlling, what was up with the date thing though? How odd was that after the party?
Right now we are on the bus to NYC the bus has wifi

4 days of school left. Sebastian's diaper rash is better, but now he's got a rash on his legs and bottom of his belly. Jayde has it on her hands and butt too. The doctor didn't want to see him for his diaper rash because it didn't seem to be yeast related (and like I said it IS getting better). The rash has to be something viral. Jayde was the only one who was visibly sick though, other than not having much of an appetite. She came home from school and asked to go lay down a few days ago, then the next day she said her throat hurt a little, but she wanted to go to school because she had chocolate centers. Anything with chocolate can't be missed ya know lol.
