[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread reminded me that my husband asked me to sign him up to be a mystery reader today. But he got called into a meeting and now can’t do it and I didn’t remember because it’s on his calendar, not mine, and now I’m scrambling to get this taken care of because our kid will be super disappointed if his parent is the only one who forgets to show up on his week. [/quote] Perfect example! He was going to *do* it, but you had to schedule it and now schedule his replacement.[/quote] This would be a perfect opportunity for a kid to learn about adult life and that things happen, and sometimes go not as planned. The kid will learn not to sweat over that s..t that most women on this thread are talking about. [/quote] I’m assuming this kid is what, 7 or 8, tops? You think it’s good to let a 7-year-old learn that he can’t depend on his parents?[/quote] Depend in what way? To change his diaper? No. He is highly capable of doing it himself. Depend on me providing him with love, roof, food, and safety? Absolutely yes! [b]Showing up in school -- it is totally optional[/b]. [/quote] My parents were like you. I am pretty independent, but I think they were crappy parents and don't talk to them much.[/quote]
