Seasons Change But MagicFriends are Here to Stay!

[nibblesandbits]

Yeah well, how's this for enlightening? I have a friend who is a fourth grade teacher and currently has the class from he!!. She confiscated a note written from a boy to a girl asking if she was wearing underwear. A nine year old! :hurl:
Sometimes schools have to do what they can. Apparently parents can't be bothered teaching self-control. :brick::brick:

wow...I have no idea how I'm going to handle things like that when I've got a 4th grader...

I'm back now. :wave:

 

[nibblesandbits]

If all goes according to plan it should be next December. Then I plan on doing a final CP and move to FL for good.

Yay!!! That's a little over a year! That's not too bad!!!

Well, here's a couple of more from another PTG mom. She works at a boutique that sells formals, and girls have been flocking in to buy dresses for homecoming (which seems insane to me, but that's another story). These girls are size 2, but their moms are squeezing them into 0's and then telling them to lose weight. :dazzle::brick:. Another mom told her that her daughter's dress wasn't low enough in the back - apparently she wanted it all the way down to the great divide. :hurl: So yeah, the schools with these policies may seem extreme, but SOMETHING has to be done to restrain behavior. I really feel badly for school administrators. Talk about a rock and a hard place.

Now that you say it like that, I have a differant point of view now. That is other reason why I like coming here. I get other points of view.:sohappy:

Tired and grumpy and with tons of stuff to do and tired and grumpy!
And sleepy!
:snore::snore:

You covered two of the seven dwarves. . .

You know, I always think that having all these rules is way extreme...then I hear about stories like these...and think, nope...maybe there is a reason for things like this...especially to hear that a mother would do that to their daughter. I really do weep for the next generation of kids...with people like Britney Spears having children (b/c trust me, there are more like her in the world...) things are just going to get worse before they get better.

:ROFLOL::ROFLOL: That made me laugh.

Hey Dot, did you watch Grey's on Thursday? We just watched the DVR...it was really good!

Yeah, but that's too far away.

Joanna, don't look at it that way! There is an end in sight!
And you've got a plan. Be happy!

 

[nibblesandbits]

Yeah, but that's too far away.

Not really. Trust me...this next year will go by so quickly, you won't even realize it!

 

[joanna71985]

Yay! :sohappy::sohappy: I'm excited for you!

:sohappy::sohappy: Sounds like a plan.:sohappy::sohappy:

Thanks.

I know it seems like it, but it'll go by quick. You'll see Will you take summer school next year?

I hope so.

I'm not sure. It looks like there is going to be a real summer alumni program, so I really want to do that.

Yay!!! That's a little over a year! That's not too bad!!!

I guess.

Scary but true

I hope not. I have my children that want children. I would hate for my grandkids and great grandkids to be worse and see worse than this.

I agree...me too. It's kind of nice. We all have this great sounding board and we get to hear so many different sides of things...all well knowing that we love each other and don't fight...usually. :lol:

So very true. A sounding board and no fighting. Just points of view.:sohappy:

I was thinking of you!
I loved it, but I was worried that George was going to have an attitude all season. Then at the very end. . . :sohappy: I know there will be trouble ahead but at least he admitted the truth! I love those two!!!!
And did I miss something. . .on the last show of the season, Meredith was "so over" Derrick and I couldn't understand why. She was the one who kept pulling back, but for reasons I obviously missed she treated him like trash. What did I miss?

Oh, I hope for it too. The only thing we can hope is that somewhere along the lines soon, people will start waking up and realizing that going homecoming dress shopping with your daughter and finding her the sluttiest outfit for the dance isn't the right bonding that you should be doing and various other things like that. Just when you think that you hear something that can't get any more outrageous, I hear something else that just makes me sad for society. The sad thing, I know more than people like Britney Spears about parenting, yet I'm younger and don't even have kids yet.
