Why this long list of nasty little sayings, you ask? It's simple. These are all euphemisms for the way the Sprouts are behaving today. How else can you justify them COMPLETELY IGNORING being asked to either be quiet or watch TV and play in another room because Mommy is tired and has a headache? How else can you explain a 9 year old who is completely unable to MOVE AWAY from her 2 year old sister starts hitting her hard enough for it to actually hurt and instead chooses to WHINE AND CRY like a little baby? How else do you describe someone who ABSOLUTELY REFUSES to behave themselves, even when threatened with BODILY HARM and a lifetime of being GROUNDED?
They just don't make drugs strong enough to deal with this crud. At least not legally.
Have you ever seen/heard Bill Cosby: Himself? You know the part when he starts talking about how his wife grabs the yardstick and screeches "The beatings will now begin!"? Yeah, that is me right now.
I will leave you with a short clip about how children are brain damaged. Funny!

Barefoot, my sons are grown and one has kids, funny how today he rembembered and expression I use to say. "We were nice people before we had teen-agers!" Now those very same words rings true for him. Trust me on this...enjoy them now bc it does and can get worse and we had good kids.
Sorry the Sprouts are acting "dumb as a box of rocks." It happens. Just ask Bill Cosby.
This too shall pass. Like kidney stones. Long, drawn out, and pain. then you can move on to heart failure!
isn't Bill Cosby just the best? Thanks for the giggles.
