That's the big problem with teenagers - yes, they are 'streetwise' (they think) they know that smoking kills people, that if you walk home alone at 2am you might get attacked, that if you drink too much you can end up unconscious, but they also 'know' that "it won't happen to me"

psychomum5 · 25/05/2009 15:48

is it half-term for you this week?? It might tunr up, you never know. and no worries for the hijack. we all need to vent sometimes, and where better than where your friends are

the girls certainly are still lesson learning. well, DD1 and her very best friend are......as I said before the other girl has gone to london so not sure (altho am hopeful).

DD1 really is complaining about her tummy being sore..........she is not liking the feelings she has been left with. and I am not helping with sympathy. I let her off with lying about yesterday, mainly becuase in some ways, lying downstairs with the noise of several boys was kind of a great punishment today, but today, oh no........she is being given lots of chores

rusty, she has certainly found that it does indeed happen like mum and dad say sometimes.

I am still so thankful for the good samariton who ensured it never hit the worst case picture!

Not half term here no. I spoke to dep head of primary this morning to ask her to mention it in a general way at morning assembly but she didn't want to as she said that the person who did it was probably feeling bad and nervous. I said 'good 0 they should be!' She said she will address it next week but that just more gentle mentioning in class might be more productive.

Re your DD - lots and lots of chores I hope!

psychomum5 · 25/05/2009 15:58

well, we did start by sending a bouncy DS2 into her very early this morning with a request for coffee for us both

Oh that brought back not so many flash backs!

When i was 14 i decided it would be uber cool to down half a litre of neat Vodka to impress my bfriend at the time.

I remember up to about 15 mins after doing that, after that its all blank, i have a few lash backs of things that happened during the night but the next thing i know i am waking up in hospital covered in puke.

I have been told that about 15 mins after i drank the Vodka i collapsed, new bfriend panicked and dragged me to the point where i was being picked up and left me on the path.

My dad turned up found me carried me into the car, i have a recolection of my mum crying and my sister taking my clothes off.

Then the ambulance arrived as my mum didn't know what had happened as i had been found by myself and Vodka can be odourless.

They pumped my stomach as i was past the point of charcoal. Declared i had severe Alcohol poisining.

I got a lecture from the DR and i can honestly say i have never been drunk since.

Anyway Psyco i hope your DS had a lovely bday and i hope your DD learsn something from this, i was so tiny when i was that age to.

TrillianAstra · 25/05/2009 18:42

Last sausage?

Not in a bad way, just a 'huh?' face.

Buda · 25/05/2009 19:19

Guess what???? The Match Attax book turned up! Was 'found' by one of DS's friends. Will find out more tomorrow no doubt. I didn't pick DS up today as he was going to another firend's house after school.

Titsalina - I take it you didn't see the boyfriend again?

psychomum5 · 25/05/2009 21:18

oh buda....

titsalina, thankyou for you post. tis nice to have someone come and tell me that they were there, and are ok now. I too did the teenage drinking thing, there was just not the disappearing act added to it and the police involvement, then A&E drama.

trillian......the 'last sausage' comment was because at the party yesterday I cooked burgers, sausages, nuggets and pizza for all the children to give them boxes (like you get from mcdonalds) for their party food.

anyhoo..........me n flame munched all the sausages, and flame got a taste for them, and she was keeping them down, so cooked some more.

only then felt full-up by the time they were cooked.........

so I rolled eyes, and tutted about the waste of sausages.......

and she felt pressured to eat them, only then another friend and I started muttering about the 'last sausage' will break her

seems it did

OP posts:
TrillianAstra · 25/05/2009 21:39

You cooked more sausages because she liked them? You are a good friend

Or was it just in amazement at how many she could eat?

psychomum5 · 25/05/2009 21:50

noooo, she started cooking them, I allowed her

OP posts:
psychomum5 · 25/05/2009 21:51

which clearly makes me a fabulous friend!!!

OP posts:
Flame · 25/05/2009 23:05

I only had 3. Psycho had at least 2.

Still broken

Buda · 26/05/2009 06:06

3 sausages broke you. You are a lightweight!

But I suppose we will excuse you in your delicate condition. Are you feeling any better?

Have you tried glucose sweets? I read somewhere that they can help.

Flame · 26/05/2009 07:49

3 sausages was a big achievement for me

20 soddin weeks tomorrow, and still starting the day being sick. I had a whole 6 day break though

psychomum5 · 26/05/2009 08:01

I had four in the end I think, after you cooked up some more. might even have been five in fact, but two were in the same roll.

when you coming this morning??
