[quote=Anonymous]I actually structured my whole adult life so I would always have time for stuff like this. My parents both worked high powered jobs and I was always acutely aware that there wasn’t time for anything. Like if I broke a glass, it wasn’t that they were mad at me for breaking the glass, but now we were going to be late and I could feel the stress. Here are some options: 1) don’t wear green. Teach your kid to say “I didn’t have any green clothes but I have green snot today” or something, whatever. You don’t have to do this. 2) find something green like a hat or a Christmas stocking and make that work. 3) pick a flower from your yard 4) pick a flower from your neighbors’ yard. I mean for goodness sake it’s daffodil season. It sounds like you are time-poor. It’s easy to get that way but it’s not terrific for kids. [/quote]
