See, you do comedy!
Phoebe, I feel ya. T...Solve? See, you do comedy!<br /><br />Phoebe, I feel ya. True, I don't own any tykes that age so there are no manuals laying around this house but I did marry a 'Tommy'. In fact, if you'd like I'll send you a picture of his Star Wars shrine. Oh yeah, a 38 year old 'Tommy'.<br /><br />What I can share about my 'Tommy' is this--when I sent him to time out he didn't lament, he plotted. And, ultimately acted out in inappropriate ways much like your little padawans. And what I find strikingly similar is that even to this age his apologies are insincere because, quite honestly, answering to the Jedi counsel is not the same as answering to the Stormtrooper they just struck down. Accountability starts with the offended.<br /><br />However, that being said, if you stare at a dog long enough even they're going to piddle on the floor 'cause they're wondering why you're staring at them all the time. You most certainly have your hands full over there so, girl, please don't think anybody trying to tell you how to do your job, K? But, I'm curious, you seem to have an age range...even between your two and I'm wondering if you're expectations of Tommy are fair considering you probably want him to set the example for the others yet he may feel cheated for the amount of maturity you're asking if he's not treated like the oldest. Thereby taking it out on Yoda...aka you. Maybe a 'deal' where he starts to feel like the big kid with privileges on the DL? O.K. buzzing off now...but I just had to write ya 'cause you seem to be pleading!! [Just remember, just like your dear loving husband, those little shits know you better than anyone else 'cause they're paying attention from day one. They're gonna know exactly what buttons to push as if they were programming the VCR, which most of 'em know how to do as well am I wrong?]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
