Here comes BO/CCO Junior!

I am literally on pins and needles, it's Friday May 20th 12:33 PM EST, and I am awaiting the final text on the soon to be arrival of Baby Overzat! I know this is going to make me want another one, MORE than I already do! I feel like I am kinda having a 3rd living through it all right now...it's more excitement than this hung-over girl can take!!!!

Is it a Girl? Is it a Boy? AAARRRRHHH...

IF YOU DON'T PARENT ALIKE WHO IS "THE BETTER" PARENT?1

AND Don't for one moment say there is no such thing! There has to be!
When do you decide that you can't have your kid hang with the one that does not parent like you;? And when I say not like me, I mean like not even remotely close to me! Amazing to think that you can find yourself in that situation, when you never thought they would ever be like that...and then it makes you look like the bad guy, or rather them the bad guy and you insane! UGH...

So, really what do you do? I think you have to take everything with a grain of salt. You have to be able to let things roll off your shoulders, and realize that they are nothing like you, so their parenting styles will differ too. When do you bring the issue up if at all is my question? If you don't parent alike are you supposed to draw attention to that? OR are you supposed to just "let it be?"

I do feel so much more comfortable with those around me that parent like me, and those that do not...well I guess it just depends on the friend or family member how much it bothers me. Even if it does bother my tremendously, I keep that to myself until I am away from them.

UGH Sorry people, can't we all just get along???
Until next time!
