Day 7: Has no real theme!

[kitasangel]

Foggy day. Packed more of my Aunt's stuff and cleaned. Made a trip out to work for next weeks schedule. Got all the good gossip and had fun visiting. Can't say I have been over eating on this vacation since if I get one meal a day I feel blessed. Lol. Good to be busy I guess

You present very valid points and I agree that parents are often to fast to blame everyone else before blaming their child. So much of the time the parents are the issue. Case in point my cousins who told all of us we knew nothing about raising a child. So at 7 their little darling is a problem. He picks up nothing he breaks all the fancy toys they buy him and thinks nothing of pitching a fit if he doesn't get his way. They put him in a private school because the school will discipline him cause frankly they are at their wits end. My Gram just shakes her head and won't allow him in her house. So yes we do need something in place that makes it them accountable. We also need as a country to stop putting out the wrong message in ads and entertainment that beautiful,skinny,obnoxious and rich are the most important things. Girls as young as 6 are being told they aren't pretty and need to lose weight. Healthy eating needs to be the message not look pretty/sexual or you don't fit in. Look at the music that is out there women be bitches keep
