Why ?

      At times people come to me, or come at me with the improvements or to complain about my parenting skills.  Why is that?  Now these are the people that: (1) have no kids (2) has paid help around the house (3) my son's father.  I am always lost and hurt by this when it does happen.  I am their PARENT not their friend.  I am teaching, instilling good values, helping learn some life lesson and a ton of day to day things I do. I am a realist when it comes to parenting. Example: I let everyone know I am washing clothes so put all dirty clothes in the bags to be washed.  I say this oh 10x and after that your lose.  You will go to school in a dirty uniform.  One more example: If you are to sick to go to school then you are to sick up to get out of bed. In life if you make no movement you get no action. I don't do it  w/ everything they don't get right or chose not to do or are just being a kid on. I don't want my children to grow up w/out knowing how to care for them selves, each other and others. My children are smart, kind, funny, sociable, understanding, talented and I can go on and on about who they are now.  And I can't wait to see the them they will become.  I will know some of that came from me.  :)
    Do you want to hear some F-ed up stuff?  Ok my neurologist has canceled my appointment that took my 2 1/2 months to get, and top of that told I can't reschedule until the end of the month.  My right arm is killing me, :) it's hurting now.  I would just like to know what the ? is going on. I hoping my doc. can get me in there a bit sooner.  Oh I am starting to notice that my meds. works best if I take it easy. Kinda like not walking, up and down stairs oh and no stress. ( just smile). Oh I can remember when I was younger, no pain. :)
