I know my chubsters only 5months (and 3 days lol), but after a few months of observing the behaviour of older kids, I just hope that my boy will grow up to be better behaved than alot of kids I see around. Sad Some boys today in the park, well I won't go in to it but, I would of been horrified if my one grew up to be as disrectful as that?
Am I wrong in thinking its time for a change and that all new mummies should take a pledge to bring up polite and caring kids as a kickback to this rude genneration that we have before us at the mo?

T-Rex anyone?

Babylon1 · 26/06/2012 22:53

EverybodysSleepyEyed · 26/06/2012 22:55

well June doesn't so I guess the Jack Russel is off the hook - this time.....

an earworm is a song that sticks in your head no matter what you do

or it's the jack russels torture weapon of choice

(still blames jack russel)

It's not all nurture! You also aren't the only person your dc will be influenced by, they will meet other ppl. Don't judge, you could well
Be in their position in a few years.

Pmsl at "percy pig (and his farmyatd friends)"

Come on op fess up who are you? Chaos again?

Shakey1500 · 26/06/2012 23:32

My first thought was that "Sharon", she of the wine throwing/carpet/wall debacle would be involved.

Forgive moi OP, it's just that there's a slim, outside chance that you may sound very similar (without actually being) to an OP of yesteryear. I am easily confuddled though and I'm absolutely positive this ISN'T the case.

That said, ummm, yes, hope you're right .

carlysreducingtummy · 26/06/2012 23:35

I've been sat here racking my brains and I don't know a Sharon at all. There's a Shaz who works a Newz&Booze down the road.
