littleboyblue · 20/12/2009 21:41

Yeah, go on, examples

scottishmummy · 20/12/2009 21:41

dont sweat it they probably hate you too

littleboyblue · 20/12/2009 21:43

In fact, I've got one. My neighbour who has a baby the same age as my ds2 will not leave her house because he has a cold (he's 10 months). She won't even go to the shops on her own incase she gets a cold and makes his worse.........come on. I wanted to tell her to get a grip

MaureenMLove · 20/12/2009 21:43

See, I'm thinking you should get a grip, if you are really worrying about what people on here think or say! It's only a chat room, it's not real enough to bother me!

for example:
friend on facebook joined some campaign to bring back kid sized trollies in waitrose

for example:
the girls sister on another thread who wanted to take up smoking to be cool age 30 something

for example:
someone having a go at my friend for liking the x factor

for example:
same girl who thought ferries should sail in bad weather because they had never capsized or sunk, so it must be safe?????????

We need examples.

I hate when people say certain people, when they clearly mean someone, they are just not naming.

mrsruffallo · 20/12/2009 21:44

If you like the X factor then you do need to get a grip HTH

rofl mrsfuffallo, but why have a row with someone about it.

for example:
friend who is upset cos her 4 week old baby doesn't sleep through the night

same friend who thinks her mum is unreasonable not to take her kids for a week instead of a weekend

woman at pre=school having a go at the teacher cos her son hasn't learnt to read yet (he is 3 by the way)
