OK, two quick things--First things first. Today it happened. The thing I hoped would never happen and the thing that has happened before but not to this level.....drum roll please: One of my kids turned into a class A brat in a store whining and crying and begging and stomping feet making ridiculous pleas for ridiculous toys and other miscellaneous crap. It was hard for me to remain patient, but I did....until I didn't. And when I could no longer be patient, I became that mom, the crazy mom, getting down to her child's level, talking between clenched teeth and telling her (yes, now you know it was not John) to cut the sh*t. So, all you 20 somethings young and in love and you newlyweds with no children or little babies in tow and making your judgements, JUST LIKE I DID, let this be your warning. IT.WILL.HAPPEN.TO.YOU. Sure, you will be a better mom, you will never let your kids act that way, you will have it all together, blah blah blah. I repeat. IT.WILL.HAPPEN.TO.YOU.
OK, second agenda item---girls clothing. All I really have to say is WOW. Is it really necessary to dress little girls like complete whores. I mean, geez, while we are at it, why not get them all breast implants and botox at age 5. Good god. It is getting more and more challenging to dress my kids like the little girls they are as opposed to the little hookers you clothing manufacturers would like them to be. Please, BACK OFF and let them have an innocent childhood, let them enjoy brief underwear and allow them to wear a one piece bathing suit with pride. And no, a monokini does not count as a one piece here. Good lord. really??? Perhaps I should go into clothing design. I know nothing about it, but what I do know is that no little girl needs hip huggers, low riders, skinny jeans, trashy undies or midriff baring shirts to name but a few.
OK, rant over. Enjoy the Oscars!
