DUH! it sure as heck IS! my kids are told "no" several times, if they continue, they are then told "you mention that one more time and you will not only not get THAT, but you will not get ANYTHING else, for some time to come...."

Heh, heh, heh. I have my children trained so that all I have to do is give them that look and they go scurrying.

... Yet! :o)

Even if you are right, you are in trouble.

As Abe Simpson said: "I was only in it for the spankins"

[parsifal]

I think I was able to slip it by....parsy the clever.

WI Mom's nagging worked! (Successful Nagging by WIMom and her Merry Band of Naggers)

[Grampa Dave]

Clever ones never brag about slipping it by!

WI Mom's nagging worked!

And so we can post for another quarter to our heart's delight.

Alex Negelein admits that when there's something he really, really wants, he's willing to ask his dad for it "150 times."

He only askes for it 150 times. Show how puny today's kids are. Mine would have done that in the first frontal attack.

However, the Mean Moms group that emerged from this Freepathon will be working on new and more hideous bomb threads of the next thon.

That damn hairless cat was about enough to make me go carpet bomb some threads. The Ostrich was great!

So enjoy the relative peace and quiet until the next thon.

WImom who spammed every single post during the FR fundraiser? Nagging? Geeze, WImom has retired the trophy!

Gee.. glad you got a place to grip huh.. Me too..

Thank you for your tireless work for this forum WImom. You have my vote girl... (and a couple of bucks for FR).

[WIMom]

Big mistake, stating how you slipped it by. Not only will those who missed it first time have a chance to see your second comment, now, they'll wonder what I'm talking about. LOL!

Some excellent words and wisdom here, Ljr:Gee.. glad you got a place to gripe huh.. Me too..

Thank you for your tireless work for this forum WImom. You have my vote girl... (and a couple of bucks for FR).

[WIMom]

LOL!

[WIMom]

See my post, GMTA!

[WIMom]

Yes! Isn't that fantastic!

[Grampa Dave]

parsifal , you were warned!

I agree. I just wish my wife would see things that way. The reason why my kid has a problem with NO is because my wife constantly undermines my NOs with YESes (behind my back often). She thinks she is being nice. No matter how many times I tell her that if she doesn't want our kid to be spoiled she shouldn't do this, she just keeps on doing this. She too won't take NO for an answer when it comes to her shopping. She often buys things without even asking. Just the other day she spent $4000 dollars on a two year supply of Agaricus Blazei Murill (ABM). She might not of even told me if I hadn't asked how much they cost. She didn't think it was a big deal or anything. I suppose it wouldn't be if she acutally made money, but she doesn't have any income or inheritance.

Thanks Oil, we missed you near the end.

xsteen is told she is welcome to purchase it with her own money, and she then becomes immediately frugal...
