For once I actually believe a parents review of their kids show! The two posts in this thread thus far give me hope for my own soul considering how many times I have said things much like this. Not only am I terrified of the idea of being pregnant and giving birth, but I'm terrified for any child who has to be a child of mine. If it ever happens, it will likely either be a huge learning curve or just a simply unfortunate event.

That doesn't mean you should be. I woke up one Saturday morning after a night of drinking, walked into the living room where Kristen was watching television. Some commercial was on with kids parading around with vigor. I remarked; "Ugh. The last thing I want to hear in the morning is children singing." CANT WAIT FOR KIDS OF MY OWN.

Nothing like 100 1st and 2nd graders singing about their home state with almost religious fervor. At least they weren't singing Justin Beiber. Kiddie performances and talent shows make me cringe. Big time. Like I told JD last night, as 1st graders skipped down the aisles of the school gymnasium while their music teacher told the crowd how proud he was of teaching the kids to skip... "This is almost as creepy as clowns" I am pretty sure this makes me a bad parent. katidid@idkfa.com (katidid) Mercy General Fri, 06 May 2011 12:53:38 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=2772&msg_id=2772
