[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 118849, member: 84"] Hello and Welcome to the board! :D Well, if you have the Mouth from the South, then I have the Mouth from the North. lmao Nichole has always been known as the child that has no hair growing on her tongue. From the moment she could utter words, she was saying it "Like it is". No tact whatsoever. And let me tell you, I've spent her whole childhood working on this, trying everything, nothing worked. Nothing. Because her mouth always opened before her brain could stop and think it through. At 18 she is only NOW beginning to learn there are times when you keep your mouth shut no matter what the circumstance or to learn tact. We've begun the *kill em with kindness* lessons, but those aren't going very well. lol I think maturity, and being a Mom herself, is making the difference when nothing else would. Now she actually listens when I walk thru senerios with her and attempts to apply it to real life. It's odd though. My sister in law, whom I think is terrific, has the same problem. You never know what's gonna come pouring out of his mouth. Rarely is it meant in a bad way. But he sticks his foot in his mouth so often it's surprising he doesn't have foot and mouth disease. lol BUT the odd part is that Nichole is actually LEARNING to improve her own problem by watching him. I don't think she even "got" what we were talking about until sister in law joined the family. Hugs [/QUOTE]
