Agree or Disagree?

[heart of peace]

is that like when people say "I don't mean to, but"?

[COLOR=#00e0]It means what Miriam Webster says it does... whether you agree with that or not. [/COLOR]

I am laughing because I am feeling like a scolded child being told "Because I said so" from her mommy. Dictionary.com is a reliable source regardless if you don't think so.

A/D? People who don't like children, probably didn't feel liked when they were children.

Disagree

It's ok to admit that you don't have all the answers to your children.

It's ok to admit that you don't have all the answers to your children.

agree. Children like to know that parents are fallible.

A/D Please & Thank you are ALWAYS required by your children b4/after giving them anything.

 

[Robinsegg]

Disagree . . . we teach them to be polite, but after a certain age it is not required, just makes it easier to get what they want

A/D Most of the time, it's *wonderful* to have the children at home or with the parents!

[Surrender2Win]

agree, I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to be at home with my children....most of the time.

a/d?
kids pick up on more then we give them credit for.

 

[Robinsegg]

Absolutely Agree!

a/d
You need to savor each stage . . . 'cause the next one might be worse

[marezee]

agree!

A/D sometimes your 5yr old acts like a 2yr old and it absolutely drives you crazy!

 

[dawnsday]

disagree

a/d -there is no right or wrong in parenting.

 

[marezee]

hmmmm...that's a tough one. I guess i would disagree.
somethings are just wrong! IMO! LOL!

A/D your children watch way too much TV!

 

[jennyren]

agree-my 2year old knows the Cat and the Hat and the Grinch by heart and the theme to SuperWhy and Caillou but has yet to learn a bible verse.

A/D Your kids will always do to you what you did to your parents

 

[marezee]

oh i so agree...they are starting to already! LOL!

A/D you spend as much time outside with your children as you can, weather permitting.

 

[JulySheMustFly]

Agree

You dread the out of school summer vacation.

 

[marezee]

dread? I guess i would have to disagree. I know it will be difficult keeping them busy and such, but it will be fun having all three boys at home.
Besides, Stephen will be taking a summer school pre-k class for 4 weeks.

A/D you love to take your boys to a lake on a hot day.

 

[PegasusOnFire]

disagree, since I have all girls, LOL. But they are to small to take to the lake right now anyway. And with all the bacteria and hog feces in the lakes around here it isn't safe anyway, so we swim in the back yard.

rain makes taking walks very hard.

 

[sphsjags]

Agree. But, however, they make a good time to sit on the porch or inside and have long, deep talks! ;-)

A/D Go into work early and leave early to beat traffic both ways (what I do)

 

[PegasusOnFire]

agree, when I worked in the city I would do this, now I work for a rual school district and have to be there at 6:30am so traffic is not a problem. Though I don't have to go back to work until August.


A/D 1 year olds are smarted that one gives them credit for.

 

[sphsjags]

Agree. Some 1 year olds are smart.

 

[heart of peace]

Agree and disagree. Some 1 year olds are smart. But, when your kid is 3 years old, just now learning their alphabet and/or numbers, and you're bragging about how smart your kid is, then get a life. Your kid's an idiot...

*coughs* To quote you "my kid is 3 years old, just now is learning his numbers" and we aren't pushing any alphabet on him. Idiot is not the word I would use to describe him though.

I don't understand your point.

 

[sphsjags]

Sorry...for realz

 

[sphsjags]

* Willie Mays does the Oxyclean, Bam, Kaboom, etc. commercials. I just find him particularly loud and annoying

 

[PegasusOnFire]

um Stephen, do you realize that youa re posting in the parenting section of the board? Do you have children?
