Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Thank you much friend. I will suggest this to his mother.
That would be a great idea if the Mother wasn't 'dead on her feet' when she got home. Remember, she gets up around 2/ 2:30 AM just like I do and has to be at work by 5 AM. Her job is about 25 mile away and so it's a slight drive in the darkness. By the time she get's off at 3:30 PM she is 'spent.' Then sometimes she has to stop by the grocery as the 2 year old drinks a lot of milk. So she may not get home until 5 Pm. Then she has to cook supper and give the 2 smallest kids their baths. The 3 older boys then have to get theirs and by that time she is 'OUT.' I will suggest this as it sounds like a very good idea. I wish she didn't work so hard and would take more time for the kids, but that's not for me to decide. God bless.
Exactly. But I'm a Mom also and I already know that a mother will defend her babies no matter what. However, I didn't give mine everything just because I could afford it either.
you're welcome:) it's often called a 'token economy' if you want to look up examples
I will and thanks again.
