Just a thought on raising responsible teens...

[fonda5150]

I know this statement will probably have the Super Nanny pounding down my door within the hour, but nevertheless it must be said…I simply refuse to coddle my kids.

Now before I receive 57 posts about how I’m such a bad parent, let me explain.

First of all let me remind everyone that my kids are 14 and 15-years-old, far from toddler stage. And

Hi Fonda, I've found your posts and comments very insightful, and added you as a friend so I could keep up with your posts. Hope that's OK!

Hi. I've added you as a friend, too. It will be nice to communicate with someone who respects other people's opinions.

I could have gotten really nasty with "withtraffic" but I chose to take the high road. I agreed with everything you said. I guess she married the one out of a hundred men who don't require sex 24/7! And God and biology definitely belong in the same sentance! Anyway, I'm still getting attacked by her (my email is so overloaded right now), but I refuse to let the vicious little girl drag me down to her level. I'm a little old for school-girl fights.

Talk to ya soon....

Yeah, I was still getting some nasty stuff from her this morning, too.
I just hit "delete" and didn't even go there. I'm going to stay far away from THAT thread. ;)

I perhaps did overgeneralize, but I do feel sorry for her husband! LOL!

Don't you love it on how she uses her legal knowledge (as a law student) to attack people too?

I wonder if she's just as disagreeable in real life. *hugs*

Well I can't decide personally if she is just the bitchy Internet type for shits and giggles or if its the pregnancy. However, I have to agree that the comments of "OMG men and sex, WTF!" are sexist. ;)

[fonda5150]

Probably...but it doesn't mean it isn't true...at least in the case of all the men I've known.

However, that could solely be due to the fact that I'm so gorgeously irrisitble that they just couldn't help themselves.

Take that, withtraffic, I'm not ugly...really, no matter what you think.
Hah!

I'm just thinking she must be one sad little person to be so angry and hateful online, but that's her damage, not mine.

I'm happy today! And I don't care if anyone thinks I am (or even if I really am) sexist, stupid, fat or whatever... I'm going to STAY happy. LOL

[fonda5150]

I followed your lead and deleted everything from withtraffic in my email without...reading them. It's just too much, I mean I do actually have a life, you know. This whole ordeal has consumed way too much of my time already.

[of_salfarro]

what, you're on for such a short time and already there is drama!

[fonda5150]

Like you, love, I apparently have the ability to incite riots without effort. Muhahahah.

Oops, sorry, was it sexist of me to call you love. My bad.
