I'd rather NOT have family meals.
MOM,just gimme my burger before dad comes home drunk and pukes on my food,kay?
I watched you during the most recent election being divisive and anti Mitt Romney. Because of people like you who share unqualified opinions, we have four more years of Obama.
And now you are attempting to spew parenting advice? Are you serious?? You only have two children, both girls and both young. You have never parented boys, you have never raised a child to adulthood, you have never delt with teenagers, you hVe never gotten a daughter thru puberty, you have never dealt with dating, Internet porn, and all of the other issues facing parents and families today. You could not be any less qualified unless you were single with no kids.
Are you that desperate for income or do you actually believe that you are an expert on all things that stumble out of your mouth?
Sheesh. Posing as a false expert is NOT why God placed you on this earth. Stop being selfish and greedy and get back on the path.
My family used to make it a point when we were younger to have dinner together at least on the weekends. I always looked forward to that. I love my family and my father is the best chef that I know! :)
I just got paid $6784 working off my laptop this month. And if you think that's cool, my divorced friend has twin toddlers and made over $9k her first month. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less. This is what I do, Big44.ℂℴℳ
