I know, these kids never eat their meals, yet they get snacks all during the day...

But it's tough.
I guess I'd give in also! Whiny screaming kids...

Such cute smiles though...

Maybe you can try limiting their snacks more to maybe once a day, that is likely the cause of their indifference to you telling them to eat their meals...they aren't hungry! XD

I'm just the Gramma.

I can't limit anything if their parents don't...

I suppose. :/

You can set rules for your own house though. :)

That's true for stuff going on in the house, like what they touch or play with.

It doesn't count for any snacks that their parents bought, or what food they eat.
We have them fix the food for their kids.

Aha I see! I'm not sure how I would be if and when I have kids. I see how my sisters run around (my sister in law even more so) and I don't want to be like that.

My sister in law I think was the worse parent I've ever seen, not abusive or neglectful. But like in terms of being all perfectionist and wiping everything down first before they touch it...always having snacks snack and more snacks and freaking out if they got hurt.

I don't want to be like that. @[email protected]

Now that I re-read it, it sounds rather tame. But just the whole way she goes about those things...shes very neurotic and gets crazy dramatic about stuff that should be simple. AFAIK she isn't so bad anymore now that they are older but holy hell was she crazy when they were little.

lol....the kids are dramatic enough. No need for the parents to be that way too!

My granddaughter is the Drama Queen...

She can make a touch from her brother seem like he belted her with a 2 x 4...

Bahahaha yeah, at certain ages omg...the munchkins are too much.

And now I am off to cut my hair! Considering its down to my butt atm I am more than a little jittery. Never been to this salon before.

Paprika must be halfway across the world, because it's 1:30am here.

That's for sure...I don't know of any salons that are open at this hour!

I am on CST in North America :)

I would also like to state that I really dislike most girls on the internet.

The ones that need to state "I'm a girl" every five seconds (I call guys/girls dude, so I hear it a lot and it ANNOYS me). Who cares if you have boobs? So do I! Does anyone else care? Nope.

They bitch at you for having a differing opinion like you were attacking them for having theirs, and start drama in guild chat (for MMOs).

Sick. of. it.

Whew!

What caused that rant, Paps?

Some random annoying girl in a guild I put one of my alts into just to get guild benefits. She started snarking/bitching at me in PM because she assumed I was being rude to her for no reason.

Pissed me right off.

Usually if somebody seems rude to me, I just ignore them.
I can never understand why some people just like to get in your face.

Generally, I find that rudeness is just a mistake. The person just worded something poorly, or I took it wrong.

Hey, I love my pink dragon!

Its defo a pretty dragon. :)

And yeah, I told her she was misinterpreting my "tone" (as it was text) but she kept snarking at me and throwing stupid insults. So I was pretty mad. XD

I signed up for the guild wars 2 beta, here is hoping I get in at the end of the month! :) It gave me the kick in the butt to start working on my "achievements" to get all the rewards for when the game is out.

Is Guild Wars something from Gaia?

No guild wars is a game on its own. :) absolutely nothing to do with Gaia.

Wow...that was a response to a post over 2 months old!

Yeah, I float around. what can I say. XD

lol...But an event is going on!

This is true. I am trying! :P

Get out there and post, woman! :illgetu:

Goin I'm goin!
