Raising your quarter-million dollar baby!

[Chasey_Lane]

That's a lot of $!

I am ahead of schedule and Boy is only 8. I think they should have a sub catagory for Yu Gi Oh cards

I am eating crow big time because a few years ago I told my parents that my nephew wasting money on those things was stupid and I was not going to buy those stupid things for Boy.

A couple hunders bucks later he has yu gi Oh cards coming out his ass and he has lost interest and NOW wants Magic cards

I have boxes of those collections gathering dust. Since my boys are a little ahead of yours in age, just let me know what addiction he has and I'll pass on the right box. Mine didn't get into Magic though.

Kyrsten has gone from Blue, to Barbie, to Hello Kitty and now she's interested in Bratz dolls. I've spent way too much money on junk!

Oh, and she informed me yesterday that when we go to the beach this weekend, she wants to parasail. How's that for expensive?

Could you re-word that so I know if it is sarcasm or if it is funny?

 

[nawty1]

Go for funny with just a smidge of sarcasm.

One thing that worked for me: JUST SAY "NO."

 

[Kizzy]

One thing that worked for me: JUST SAY "NO."

Yep. And, we've started doing just that when we saw the kids had no appreciation for anything. If they did, they wouldn't leave their crap all over the house.

Expensive PS II games out of the cases and on the floor.

 

[BadGirl]

My kids are gonna get a cardboard box and nothing else. Well, maybe a wooden spoon, too. But after that, absolutely nothing else.

 

[DoWhat]

My kids

Don't you have to get some, for that to happen?

 

[BadGirl]

Don't you have to get some, for that to happen?

Yep. I'm waiting to pick one or two up during one of K-Marts Blue Light Specials. I can pick up one or two cardboard boxes while I'm there, I reckon.

And they will be happy with that too, for awhile.
