Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 Zanna... you mentioned Kylie wearing makeup... I'm with you on that one. When my daughter was still young... Number one rule was NO makeup and NO dating until she was 16. We went everywhere together and alot like you and Kylie are right now. My brother and his wife made the mistake of allowing there daughter to date and wear all kinds of makeup, because it was cute on her, at the age of 11. By the time she was 13 she was in deep trouble and her parent didn't know WHY! They put the blame on HER and her bad genes! Oh brother! Kids don't even know what's right or wrong at that age... that's why they have parents.. Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 I think you did it the right way Vicki. Our rule is also no dating until the age of 16 as that is what I grew up with. Shelby is begging to get her ears pierced and we are still on the fence about that. Our kids have music in their rooms, no TV, no phones. Shelby asked me why she can't have a phone in her room and I told her because then I couldn't eavesdrop on her conversations. She gave me her best, " Oh Mother! " look. Shelby has the kids computer in her room but it is not now, or will it ever be hooked up to the internet. They use our computer for homework research and stuff. There is some amazing things on the internet but I believe it must all be adult supervised. I think my mom puts it best, " Freedom within limits " . They can choose to wear whatever they want that is in their closets. It is my job to make sure they only have appropriate clothes to choose from. Still simple at this age. I know it gets much harder as they get older.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 zanna...yeah when i was in junior high and even high school..if they didn't approve of something you wore [even if it was a tank top and your bra strap just happened to slip a little and was exposed] you'd have to change into a PE shirt if your parent couldn't bring something else or if you didnt have a sweater/jacket to wear over it....it was insane....but the more popular kids were got away with so much more..they were allowed to wear tube tops or backless shirts that lace up and not even get in trouble....even if their nipples were showing because the shirts were so tight!! i would think an exposed bra strap is a lot better than that don't you think??...by the way..how old is your daughter? susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 i agree that the clothing that britney spears is stage clothes...but i think she's realizing she likes it so much she's wearing it as everyday stuff...i was watching the diary of her on mtv and it was just a camera following her around the house..and to the recording studio and stuff..and she still wears very revealing clothing....it was pretty funny though when she was wearing a skirt while driving with one of her legs tucked under the other...so driving in the next lane could see her undies. susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 the only time i ever wore the glitter stuff was in high school on the nights of football games...i was in the school marching band so we were there no matter what...but all the girls wore the glitter to show more enthusiasm and school spirit.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 Ann-Marie, Thank you for the compliment. I have wonderful parents and I just try to live up to the roles they set. went to a birthday party today at a Putt-Putt miniature golf course. There were 10 little guests, including the birthday child. Only 3 of us parents stayed with our child. Is that unbelieveable, or what? Can you imagine dropping your 5 or 6 year old off at a public place and leaving them there for the birthday mom to watch? I don't even leave Shelby at birthday parties unless it is at a private home and then I always offer to stay and help the mom. Even then, I have Shelby take a backpack and I leave one of our cell phones with her. She and Karsyn know how to use it and that it is only for an emergency for them or any other child to use. No one is to even know it is there unless it is needed. I have never gotten a phone call, but better safe then sorry. When the girls have a party in a public place, like a roller skating rink, I bring a book and read where I can keep an eye on things or chat with the few other mom's that stay. It truly dumbfounds me that parents think that a birthday party is a few hours of free babysitting. I bet I have attended over 200 birthday parties in almost 10 years. Jeff and I kept a mental track last year and the kids went to over 40 birthday parties between the 3 of them. That was just last year. Good thing I love cake!

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 Zanna, Our house is the hang out house too. Always have a couple of extra sleeping here on the weekends. We have a refrigerator/freezer out in the garage filled with juice and popsicles and all the kids know they are welcome to help themselves as long as all trash is cleaned up. I have friends who ask me how I can stand to have all those kids running around my yard, or to have 7 or 8 extra ones all over the house. We absolutely love it. Jeff and I both grew up in houses where all of our friends hung out. I want to know where my kids are and who their friends are. There is a new 9 year old boy on the street who was calling names, hitting, making fun of who is the youngest on the street. The kids all asked me to talk to him. We had a little chat this afternoon to get to know each other and then I explained the rules to him. He's welcome to play...blah, blah, blah but we treat everyone with respect. I guess people actually have children and expect them not to have friends over to play. I really don't get it.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 Shelby loves to play with my make-up and yes, she does frightening well applying it. She can put on lipstick at night, brush her teeth, sleep all night and still have it on in the morning. Lasts about 5 minutes on me.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 .... She made me go out with him. She dragged me out of my room by the arm and yelled at me in front of him...told me to stop acting like a baby. I was very much embarrassed by the whole scene. He was a very nice looking young man but good grief, I was just 12. She just wanted to pawn me off on anyone.... I don't think we said 4 words to each other. He did try to kiss me and I remember yelling NO at him. Poor guy..... When I got home my mother thought it was sooooo funny.. I didn't! This guy was a friend, of a friend, of a friend... I found out later that she knew he was older than I but didn't know he was 19 and in the Air Force. I'm sure he was just as shocked as I was. I was sooooo shy when I was younger. A true introvert!

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2001 Report Share Posted October 21, 2001 Hi .... We went to the drive in movie. I think the only reason he tried to kiss me was to make me feel good. I was shy, UGLY and as thin as a rail. When I yelled out NO, he sat staight up in his seat and never said another word until he dropped me off in front of my driveway. My mother liked doing mean things, one reason I think she had some serious problems. At least my darling little sweet baby girl (who's now coming up on 36) would never have to go through all of that. Gosh, I can't believe she's almost 36... she can't either...LOL And she would kill me if she heard I was calling her my baby girl. Mothers never get over that.
