Not my original but this was "begging" to be posted...
1. You spend the first two years of your children's lives teaching them to walk and talk. Then you spend the next sixteen telling them to sit down and shut up.
2. Grandchildren are God's reward for not killing your own children.
3. Mothers of teens now know why some animals eat their young.
4. Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said. (This is so true with my kindergarteners who tell me about their home lives.)
5. The main purpose of holding children's parties is to remind yourself that there are children
more awful than your own.
6. We childproof our homes, but they are still getting in.
ADVICE FOR THE DAY: Be nice to your kids. They will choose your nursing home one day. (I, personally take this to heart... LOL)
AND FINALLY: IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF TENSION AND YOU GET A HEADACHE,
DO WHAT IT SAYS ON THE ASPIRIN BOTTLE: "TAKE TWO ASPIRIN" AND "KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN"!!!!!

Excellent advice! These are hilarious, especially #3. A friend recently said that if she believed in hell, it would be like being stuck forever as the parent of a teen in junior high school!

Hmmm, Anne, that may be a belief of hell for some junior high school teachers too. Funny.
