    Tomorrow, the universe willing. : ) Is turning out to be another day to rip away from calendar. : (

    Hope you'll put it back, though I kind of can guess the gist, though didn't read it.

    It ended up becoming too personal.

    Hmm. Rihana why you 'like'-d? Because its a feedback (though irrelevant to the topic) r you thought it was funny in some minor level at least or just because?! :D Even after all the analysis I still don't get! :)

    @Rihana you and your thinking cap or is it your thinking nap, is injurious to many, making them inspect, introspect self yaar..slow down.:coldsweat::sweat::sweatsmile:

    my manual, never got printed both the times and sad to say did not even have those pamphlets handed down by parents..:p... oh this hitler mom or the dragon spitting mom now sports a very sparing and silver locks..compared to your Goldilocks...i want to believe that i am done with serious parenting, with little man turning 18.

    my strength is acceptance (if i am wrong, saying sorry and willing to learn. but saintly virtue as some of my friends say for the last one year..patience :cool:omg i had to pull all the stored resources to be patient with the young man or should i say he taught me patience).OOuch that is too many..

    My weakness too much of a perfectionist that though i never demand from my kids, they feel that they need to try..and silence as a punishment. (and i am learning to undo this for the past few years..)

    I try to cook nutritious food and ensures he eats his fruits and veggies everyday..Offlate i am not concerned abt grades as i know that my son is smart and bright but too lazy to put that stuff in paper and show to the teacher for the sake of marks

    My negatives...I know my son has to improve in writing ..I am not taking any major steps to fill the gap...Right now he is still dependent on me on certain things, i need to make him independent...

    I think (for you) going back to full-time job will reduce incidents of the nasty texts. Maybe I am wrong, but wrote what I felt.

    @thread: I prefer to not analyze aspects of parenting, unless there is some serious aspect, hence refraining.

    LOL. Isn't there some statue of limitations on how long one can continue to ponder on a snippet topic one has written. :) I don't know.. sometimes Likes just happen.. I guess in this case it was 'will not look nice if posts above and below it have Like. ;) and it was funny too. whatever :)
