When you learn, pass it on please! Mine turned 14 last week and I almost bought my wife one of those coY white sweaters that puts you in a perpetual hug and I was going to redecorate the house with this nifty rubberized wallpaper I found (also white).

Not admitting anything, but a lil sponge bob nano would be fun

I'm pretty sure that there's a federal law somewhere that says if you find someone setting up a SpongeBob Tank, legally you are required to report them for reefplace violence or something.

Raw row - saw this after I posted I might like one.,,

I’ll clean your tank for a month, don’t report me

Give up on the room - door stays closed

Freezer full of huge boxes of crap food - pizza rolls/chicken nuggets/chicken wings/burritos

Phone is put in locked cabinet during bedtime (10pm - 6am)

Any talk back, no chores done / phone is taken away - no excuses

Homemade margaritas- lots of them

Very difficult to learn how to handle non compliance without at least pepper spray.

When your pediatrician looked at you and said you made a leader, it is good for her as a girl/woman but for you... She was 12 months old. Every single day I remind myself I won't have another kid.
