I told my kids that if they eat ungrilled weiners they would get worms. Weeelllll....this year at school they started serving hot dogs and my son asked if they were grilled. When the "lunch lady" told him they were boiled weiners, my son said to her, "what? Did you know you will give us worms?" I then had to confess to my son...

I HAVE 3 KIDS. My 8 year old has to be in school at 8;30 am. The school is at my corner so I can basically sleep walk there. Go home and lay down til 10 am. I work late at night and mornings are a little tough on me. My 5 year old sleeps late and the baby13 months is content with a bottle,clean diaper and cartoons. I can usually get an extra hour an half of sleep on the couch. The other morning I lay on the couch fell back asleep. I am a very light sleeper. The baby's laughter woke me. The smell I smelled sat me upright. The baby (who i forgot to change) had pooped and his already wet overnight diaper, was next to him. His entire face was covered in poop and he was squishing it in his hands playing with it. laughing hysterically. happy as a baby in shit lol. I did not know whether to laugh or cry. needless to say I am looking into day work.

My four and a half year old son came into the kitchen the other day as I was busily cooking dinner for a friend who just had a baby. He sat down on the floor and put his shoes on. He then stood up, turned to me and said, "Hey Mom, get your big fat ass in the car and drive me to my friend's house!"

I seriously need to watch what I say in front of them!

I didnt go to see him when he was in the detention home. I took his social security money and spent it on the rent.i didnt go trick or treating with him went to a bar instead to meet my husband, instead of giving up my husband i stayed with him. had a nervous breakdown when i lost my son to the courts who sent him to a correction place.he didnt go to school and i left him homeless at 16 he stayed at a relative until she didnt want him there i took him back home and he stole all my furniture and refrigerator

when my grandson was beginning to walk and climb he could climb

over the baby gate on the stairs. to keep him from going up the stairs and falling, every time he would get near them we would blow a dear grunt and tell the kids it was big mean duck.

They are 7, 4, and 3 and will still not go upstairs.

The childrens father and i had separated and were not liking each other in the least. He was taking the three children for a visit with him for a week. As he only has them 4 times during the year he does not appreciate the demands of rearing young children. I thought it my duty to give him an awareness. The trip to his home would take a four hour drive. So the morning he was due to collect the children I thought I would be their favourite parent........I spoilt them with chocolate, cake, fizzy drinks and lollies. Lets just say after four hours in the car, the remaining three hairs on his head were well and truly gone!!!!!!

Today, I took my kids over to my friend's house for her daughter's birthday party. It was a very warm and sunny day so it was a "sprinkler party". All the kids had swim suits and my 4 year old was in swim trunks and a tank top. I put sunscreen on both of my children on every inch of skin that was exposed. About an hour into the party, I noticed that my son's back was burning. So I put sunscreen all over his back again. Then I looked closer at his burn and realized that it was in the perfect shape of his tank top. I am such a bad mom, because I forgot to put sunscreen on him AFTER he took his tank top off. Now, he looks like he is wearing a tank top even when he is wearing nothing.

As my daughter got older, I kept telling my hubby to "watch what you say" around her and he keeps telling me she doesn't pay attention. As all Mom's know (guess not Dads tho) kids will repeat anything and mostly at the worst time. My hubby is not the most kind driver, so if someone is in front of him, not moving to his fast pace, he usually yells at them "Come on ya friggin bone head MOVE" (thank goodness he has made his language more PG rated)

So one day as I am sitting at a stop light behind another car with all the windows down in the car and my 3 yo in the backseat, the light turns green and the car in front doesn't move as soon as the light turns green. So in a loud voice I hear from the back seat "Come on ya friggin bonehead MOVE"

Gotta love what Dads teach their kids!

My 4 yr old who never sleeps past 7:AM if I'm lucky told me the other day when she grows up she's gonna start sleeping in...Hummm...where was she going with this..."When I get to be a mommy I'm gonna sleep in when my little girl wants to wake up in the morning" I didn't know whether to tell her to jump and bed with me and we could go back to sleep and practice sleeping in for when she grows up, or if that was God's way of telling me I needed to get my over worked (a mom;s work is never done, should've been out of bed a hour ago to even atepmt to catch up with everything that needs to be done) butt out of bed...What do you think?

By the way she wouldn't go back to sleep I tried the first scenario and we wound up getting up and making pancakes(that was another bma story I'll write on later) The things we do and give up for our children.

A couple weeks ago, dh, ds-11 & I went to the in-laws for the day. They have a pool & while dh & I just wanted to visit, ds wanted to go swimming. So he did for several hours. Not once, did it occur to me (or anyone else) that he might be getting a sun burn. After we left about 4 hours later, he is really getting uncomfortable so we stopped at a pharmacy & got some lotion to sooth him until we got home (2 hours away). The poor child was so sunburned he had blisters on his shoulders a few days later. I felt so bad.

For my 10th birthday a family friend had given me a great big red ball that was at least 3 ft in circumference. I was playing with it and rolled over the top of it and landed on my shoulder. I ran home crying and my mom was making me move it around in large circles. I was screaming and crying! My cousin who was all of about 14 at the time was the football trainer at her local high school team. She diagnosed my shoulder as "jammed" so my mom was making me "work it out". When I wouldn't quit crying my mom made me change my grass stained shirt into a red and white striped shirt that did not button. It killed me to lift my arm and put that shirt on, but then she drove me to the local ER, where I was diagnosed with a broken left clavicle! BROKEN!!! They had to cut my new clean shirt off me and I had to wear a brace for the rest of the summer and the first part of 5th grade. Thanks Mom!

cannot stand my mother in law because she is a nosey witch who

wants me to do everything for her. Anyway she has a habit of not

even wanting to pick things up for herself so she yells for my 4

year old to come do it for her. Well I said one day under my

breath (I thought he could not hear, he was in a different

room!) "lazy bit** needs to bend her fat a** over and then she

wouldn't be a lard a." Well about 2 days later I hear my

wonderful son say "Granny you wouldn't be such a fat a if you

would stop being a lazy bitch."

Yep that was a proud (notice the sarcasm) moment. My husband was

getting ready to punish him and I played with the notion of not

telling him and letting him punish our son.

I was body boarding with my son when we was 7, just off the north cornish coast in the UK. He was getting a bit whingey and I'd been getting a bit snappy. Suddenly he started proper crying and saying he'd hurt his toe. I looked and there was the tiniest scratch - teeny weeny. He got progressively more upset and I got progresively more angry, convinced he was over reacting. I made him walk all the way up the beach. I eventually realised something was wrong (he was hysterical) and had to drive fast to the drs. It turned out he had stood on a weaver fish and been stung badly - incredibly painful.

I have never felt so awful in my life. It really taught me to stop, step back and listen properly. I nearly didn't post this cos half way thru writing it I had all those feelings come flooding back.

I called the doctor. We all got wormed. Her doctor wanted to see her on Monday and bring the worm with us. I walked in, (my MIL had already taken her and I met them from work)they both started laughing at me...My MIL had forgotten to tell me that they ate chinese and Mandy LOVES SPROUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When my kids were toddlers and refused to sleep, I would sometimes give them "sleepy medicine" which was children's Benadryl to make them fall asleep.

Also, in the summer when the kids are in the pool every day, I sometimes skip a bath for the whole week. Chlorine has some cleaning effects, right?

My daughter was 2 and a half and I had just picked her up from daycare after a rough day at work. I had her lunchbox on the front seat next to me and she kep asking for her sandwich. I said there is no sandwich, that she ate it all. She kept asking, then yelling for the sandwich. After about a minute, I slammed on the brakes, grabbed the lunch box and whipped at her and said "There's no fu$%ing sandwich in there!" My daughter got quiet immediately and as I turned around to put the car in drive, I felt like the worst mom in the world and wanted to die.

There is a saying that God has created all children even the "illegitimate ones" however it was women who were stupid enough to get themselves pregnant and call themselves mothers.....not God. So...all of us who were whoring our bodies should just come clean and fess up to God that we were wrong and in fact do not have a clue what we are doing. Then things get better.Really.

My mom means well but is so selfish and emotionally f'd up that she has no idea how bad of a mother she is. Every time I need her she is never there. I had emergency surgery and she was so busy telling me on the phone how bad my illness was that she didn't even notice how scared and upset I already was without someone telling me I was practically dead, much less my mother. I needed her to tell me I would be o.k. and that she'd help me, not "OMG you are so sick. people die from what you have." I told her not to visit me while I was sick. She got me so upset that my husband told me she should stay away until I was recovering. Then, when she visited 2 weeks later, her idea of being a good mother was to write me a check---with MY GRANDMOTHER's checkbook! It wasn't even her money!

Today, I called her very upset because a huge snake got into my koi pond and was eating my beautiful fish! HEr response was "Well how was your weekend? I convinced your father to visit the mountains instead of visiting you in a couple of weeks." Well GOOD! If she can't be remotely supportive or consoling when I need her, I guess I don't need her!

I'm a bad mom. I admit it. I'm sure my neighbours have heard me screaming at them. I've resorted to "playing dead" when I just couldn't stand it anymore. Or letting them watch TV all day or eat lots of junk food. My husband wanted kids. I didn't. I had them for him, and somehow that means that I stay at home with them, have no life, do all the meal planning, clothing shopping, read all the "baby stuff" manuals because he can't be bothered, read all the books and magazines because he can't be bothered, and move them along in their development, because he can't seem to handle change (as in he has to sit with a 7 year old having a bath - he can't accept that a 7 year old isn't going to drown.), and so on. I often have a sore throat from yelling because I get so mad. Alberta, Canada

It was the night before Easter. I hadn't done the shopping. We hadn't colored eggs, but the kids were ok with that. I figured I'd hit the stores after the kids fell asleep.

Well, I failed to account for the fact that the next day was Sunday, and NOTHING would be open! I drove around hopelessly that night, visiting one store after another.. even WAL-MART was closed for goodness sake! So I headed home, feeling like the worst parent on the planet. I made a card and wrote that it was from the Easter Bunny, and he was upset that they didn't color eggs, but he'd be back the next night, so get 'em done!

I went BACK to the store, bought all the stuff for baskets, all the stuff for the eggs.. We colored eggs, the Easter Bunny came, and all was well.

But I still feel horrible. The kids loved it that the Easter Bunny made a special trip back just for them!

And I've also.. forgotten to brush teeth.. not served a veggie.. or absolutely refused to get up time#10234 to get something for them that they can get for themselves.. ah well. When the kids are in therapy talking about me, I promise I'll go in too and confess.

Sometimes when I start reading this junk I want to comment that they are so full of crap.I also feel like I'm the only person in the bloggosphere that has problems. Everybody's life, kids, and house is PERFECT.

I have raised alot of kids and for the most part I have been selfish. I am on the computer NOW and my 2year old is sitting in front of the TV. Thats bad. I also yell alot and spank his little butt off. When I put him to bed if he gets up I spank him.

I kept telling them to either stay out or stay in. I was mopping the kitchen when my son came to the (locked) back door and knocked on it. I yelled "What did I tell you???? Go to the front door." No sooner than I said it, my next door neighbor's voice came through the door to tell me my son had broken his arm playing football with the other kids. I felt like a heel.

I have a 19 year old that has been a struggle for the last 6 or 7 years. I love this child but am bankrupt emotionally. She has angry issues, she is bi-polar which she refuse to stay on medication. NOW she is pregant. I told her I wouldn't raise her child. I told her to put it up for adoption because she isn't ready to be a mom. I took her to an agency and the volunteer tells us the story that 'her 19 year old got pregant and she and her husband decided to raise it'. THANKS for the support lady. I don't feel bad enough about this situation. Any ways I want her to go to an unwed mothers home but she doesn't want to go. If she stays here then I may have to move, and I feel guilty about that too.

My 7 year old son lost yet another tooth. The time before he actually lost the tooth and the Tooth Ferry didn't come. So this time he put the tooth in a sandwich bag and we hung it on the fridge with a magnet. That evening I reminded myself not to forget about the tooth and low and behold I did. The next morning my son ran to the fridge and saw that the tooth was still there. I thought, "Oh Lord!" what am I going to say." To my dismay my son informed me he whispered a little secret to the Tooth Ferry that he would like her to not come until my husband returned from hunting. WOOOH! Did I get lucky on that one. So of course the Tooth Ferry could do nothing but grant the request.

Im a bad mom because I cuss like a sailor in front of my kids. I cant help it, its a terrible habit. I knew I didnt want my kids to be cussing, so i told them that the reason Santa doesnt bring presents to grownups is because grownups cuss. And that once they started cussing that Santa would not come to see them anymore either. My kids are 11 and 12 now and ive never heard of or heard one of them cuss. Sounds mean and is a little bit of a lie but it worked. They know Santa's always watching.

okay. You know those concrete poles they place up around store doors so that cars can't drive through them (honestly, I dont know why they are there!)? Well my boys like to hop them. They cannot pass by one without taking a running leap up onto it and sailing over like its a pummel horse.

WELL .. one very wet day as we were approaching the store, I warned him (I could see him hiking up his pants to give him more room to leap): DONT DO IT!

he didn't listen

As he began to sail over, his hands slipped on the top of the wet slippery concrete and down he went, face first into the cement ground. Classic slow motion move. As his mother, I was concerned BUT immediately began to laugh my bad mother heart out, nearly peeing my pants from the exertion of trying not to laugh SO hard. People are walking into the store and out of the store just staring at me, one woman stopping to put in her .02 with a: What do you have to say for yourself?

and all that I could say between gasps for air : TOLD .... YOU ..... SO

My husband says he should have called child protective services for my not even helping my son, and just laughing hysterically at him :shrug: I did help him. He hasn't ever done it again. :P

I wrote "take trash to curb" on the chore list, but didn't assign it to anyone in particular (error #1). I didn't notice until 11PM that the cans weren't at the curb (error #2). I was too pooped to do it then, but set my alarm for 6:30AM to get them down before the trash guys arrived. I got up at 6:30AM to a swollen foot I could barely walk on. I asked 16yo son if he could please take the cans down on his way to the bus (error #3). "Not likely" was his response. I donned my coat and took them down myself, hobbling in the rain like Igor and getting angrier by the minute (error #4). When I came back in, son tried to apologize, explaining he'd been up all night working on homework and slept in, and was about to miss the bus as it was. I got all snippy and told him, "That's okay. I love walking in the rain with a swollen foot at 6:30AM" (error #5).

I've written a note of apology, asking him to forgive me for being such a jerk. Seems like every time I speak to this particular child it doesn't end well.

My job is working with children with behavioral problems in an resident setting. Sometimes if one of the kids is having an aggression problem or needs to be restrained (due to trying to hurt someone else in the house) I can get off of work a little late (you can't just say, OH, my shift is over, you can get up and stab someone with your fork now). More than a few times my 6 and 9 year old have gotten home from school and I'm not there. Its never more than 20 minutes or so but when I walk in the door the youngest is always in tears and my older one acts like it is no big deal.

This is a "Bad Aunt" story, but close enough.

I was watching my sister's 3 kids one afternoon, and the oldest (9) went rollerblading. I was on the computer in the back of the house, the littlest (3) was in his crib, and the middle one (6) was watching TV in the front of the house. All of a sudden, the doorbell rings, and the 6-year-old goes to answer the door.

"YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO OPEN THE DOOR!" I bellowed as I ran through the house, ready to beat his butt for not listening. "But it's [my brother]!" "I DON'T CARE! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO OPEN THE FRONT DOOR!"

Come to find out, his brother had broken his arm and had CRAWLED HOME from the cul-de-sac. The poor boy was in tears, and his arm was shaped like a 2-step staircase.

I felt so horrible for yelling so belligerently to the 6-year-old when he was actually trying to do a good thing and for not hearing the 9-year-old shouting from the front yard before he made it to the door.
