LOL my husband said no... I just asked him because we were talking about what she might be like when she is a teenager and I realized... I dont like teenagers... hopefully I will like my own haha

besides I couldnt send her away for reals.

I told my husband that I am not apposed to sending our daughter to boarding school when she turns 13

My husband went to boarding school and loved it! We are surrounded by boarding school's where I live but I can't do it. I want all my children to be children as long as possible and I worry that they grow up too fast when they board.

I agree. That is one reason why my son doesn't have too much asked of him to do around my house. Being a kid is way to short. His day will come when he has to do the grown up stuff. For now, I do want him to just be a kid and enjoy.

I think the problem is the opposite. Childhood is being extended too long.

I am 39 but trying not to be...........

We are the same age, and I never feel I'm on that age

Like I already said. I am 51, but I don't act it. Been told by many and working hard on never growing up

And you still have a teenager kid? That's nice

I only have children so I don't know if that is true. I will agree that I do not want to be paying for my children's healthcare until they are 27 because they should be on their own feet hopefully raising families of their own by then!

For such nice forum, the only thing missing is live chat. Need to keep F5 F5 F5 F5 for this

I am on my phone. So it is worse! I was on my IPad but it keeps putting double I's in everything I type. It was taking too long to correct it all.

Are you saying the baby will take after my husband? or are you talking about my husband

Most time I use my android phone to read and reply. So it's the same situation here. Getting hungry now, time to roam the fridge

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

I never use my computer for the forum. Occasionally I'll use my iPad normally I use my iPhone. My regret with the iPhone is I don't get to see people's tag lines in their signature. No links in signatures either.

Has anyone received updated information from the tort owner whose dog chewed a hole in the carapace? I'm just curious if the baby survived.

 

[wellington]

I am 39 but trying not to be...........

We are the same age, and I never feel I'm on that age

---

Like I already said. I am 51, but I don't act it. Been told by many and working hard on never growing up

And you still have a teenager kid? That's nice

---

Had him when I was 35. He just made it. We were going to stop trying when I turned 35. Well I turned 35 not knowing I was pregnant.

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

At Christmas my daughter gave me a fridge magnet that says, “Just because you're old doesn't mean you have to be mature" I'm not sure if she was saying I'm old or I'm immature.

That is awesome. I waited until later so my husband could finish school. I only want one. We have talked down the road of adopting another maybe, but we want to try one first and see if we go insane.

You are lucky, he must be a blessing to have at that age.

Yes I think children will make you insane, insane with love

I only have the one also. I must say. If I had to do it over again, and was younger, I would have had two right away. However, if you have a big kid for a hubby, it might not be as hard for you. My hubby is an old 57 and was an old 40 something. It was hard sometimes, playing those mind numbing games etc, constantly entertaining a little toddler. But, also worth it too

I'm confused it was hard sometimes playing those mind numbing games, are you talking about hanging out with your husband?

Yes, I don't really understand people who get married and don't want any children. They are certainly the greatest gift of all.

LMAO, ya, that too
The kiddy games, Pokemon, transformers, yugio? I had to play most of that stuff with my son. At least he enjoyed it. That's what counts.

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

We would and still do, play Pente. We played our own variations of it like speed Pente where you had to place your piece fast. That would get crazy.
