little bastards are over indulged today,,,
If I would've interrogated my uncle about anything, I would've got it from my dad....
Children should be seen and not heard...
but they all get trophies for losing,,,

That drives me nuts! EVERYONE GETS A TROPHY!! Why can't the losers be losers. Let the ache of failure burn inside so they have some incentive to win. Who needs to try when you get a trophy for last place?
I'm reminded of an occurence at my son's wedding which was funny as he11 at the time, but maybe a little frightening for the future, also.....During latter half of reception of my eldest son's wedding, there were about a half-dozen of us enjoying cigars in the 'designated', 'segregated' area. A toddler waddled in amongst us - a boy of perhaps 3 years. After he'd been wandering through our legs and having a good 'ol time for 3 or 4 minutes his mother comes by - sees him and runs towards us. She scooped him up and has she was hustling him away, she said loudly to him, but partly back over her shoulder "THAT'S WHAT CANCER SMELLS LIKE!".

I buy Tank cigars all of the time. I plan herfs, and contact botl when he wants to get together with people...
I even have his shipments sent to my work so they don't sit outside in the weather for hours on end.
"THAT'S WHAT CANCER SMELLS LIKE!".
and the response back should have been, "no, that's what ignorance looks like"
the kid is more likely to get sick sitting on the fire retardant treated chair at home, or playing on the stain-resistant carpet floor. Mom goes nuts about 5 minutes of second hand smoke exposure, but likely doesn't even think about all the chemically treated furniture, clothing, bedding, flooring etc. that she exposes her son to every day.

Probably has no qualms stuffing him full of HFCS or dousing him with Oxybenzone & Triclosan, either.
and benadryl, to make them sleep at night, how 'bout those!

Benadryl is too expensive -- some cheap ass rum works well.

Why can't we go back to the good ol' lead based paint?
