Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

At first I thought you were calling us to attention.

Man, I'm wiped from work. I think I'm going to have nightmares about this for months. (Actually, I'd had nightmares about this scenario before. It just hadn't happened.)

Fear not Burrell, I did cry.

mac is being a pill. refusing to eat what I made for dinner and refusing choice two. screaming mad at me because I called him picky and made fun of him. he wouldn't eat a bite of food with a fork that had been in other food. SERIOUSLY!?! his reaction is so out of proportion to the situation, I think he must be tired, but he is in his room on isolation until he can say he is sorry. I may not get the apology tonight.

one of mac's standard response to getting in trouble is hitting himself (ridiculously common for the kids from ETH) - he started in on that I gave one warning that if it did not stop, he would lose a visit with uncle, tv for a week and maybe swimming. I am upping punishment for that particularly because it is so awful.

Yikes. Any idea why it's so common in kids from ETH?

Oh man. Days like that with kids....

My brother tends to need to use earning-a-priv/thing because D can and will laugh in the face of negative consequence. And then carry a sulk forever. Hmmm, wonder where he got those traits from??

Poison? Skee-Lo? Digital Underground?

Or, you know iTunes has WKRP!
