Even the idea of a newbie parent or a baby in a bar just rubs me the wrong way.

No calls, no texts, no gps. I pulled over, restarted the app, put my phone in airplane mode and turned it off, etc… Nothing was working. With the worry that I was lost and had no way of contacting anyone to find my way and with a child in my car, I blurted "WHAT THE HECK?!?" The 4 year old, of course, responded "my daddy doesn't like it when people say that." Of course he doesn't kid. Of course he doesn't. *sigh* (Restarted my phone and got service back. YAY!)<br /><br />2. Would it have offended you if it was a dad-to-be cussing instead of a mommy-to-be? I probably would have been irritated since I wouldn't have wanted to attend a lecture where someone constantly cusses, but I also think we hold women to higher standards than men. It's "unladylike" to cuss. But why? :(<br /><br />3. I don't really think it's appropriate for the school teachers to be talking about "twin sisters". Maybe if they split the class up into boys and girls, sure. I guess? But there has to be some better wording that works for both genders. The fact that Mica would come home and tell you not to expose yourself is exactly why I think that. It may be the liberal ideals coming out in me, but it shouldn't be ingrained in boys and girls that seeing or exposing cleavage is wrong, because it's not, in all circumstances. Breasts are completely normal. The idea is moreso that school is not the place for that kind of exposure from either gender. It's my opinion, but they don't need boys running around topless (or exposing their chests) any more than girls.

I don't call them names. At work, well that's a different story. My kids could be around you. Ha!<br /><br />I thought the bumper sticker was pretty funny too.

Get me and my bestie together, you probably don't want your kids around us lol. We're loud, obnoxious and crude. When we go somewhere we make it a point to sit far away from everyone just in case we offend someone, but the people that sit by us always join in our conversations and I sometimes think they are going to ask for our phone number or try to friend us on Facebook because we are quite hilarious. <br /><br />That Hello Titty bumper sticker is so funny. I wouldn't put it on my car, but I'd certainly burst out laughing if I saw it on someone elses.

I don't remember what it said, something about supporting single mothers. Boys def notice things like that though. ;)<br /><br />I don't curse often. I've said maybe five curse words at all since my youngest has been born (he's 10) and he was just telling my daughter and her friend that I cuss all of the time. My daughter laughed because she knows better, but her friend didn't, LOL. geez.<br /><br />I believe you about the older kids being on the phone. I'm tempted to take mine out sometimes when I know I shouldn't ;)mail4roseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17850985344834209198noreply@blogger.com
