You Know You're a Grouch When.....

GC~ that probably is what I should have done.

As kids {about 10 and up maybe} we were also allowed to roam in a small group. But, yessir, we did behave ourselves!!

At work, I will tell the parents whose children are well behaved that they have wonderful children. I do think, though, that the crying miserable children are the faults of the parents. Either they've pushed them too far and they are exhausted and crying is what they are going to do or else they've spoiled them by never saying no so they cry until they get what they want.

It does hurt my heart, though, to see the quiet repressed kids whose parents give them a look or spew mean words at them. You wonder how things are at home.

GC, I totally believe you were a good kid.
