Too true Star.
BBK, I just have not paid much attention to the whole horrible boyfriend thing. Beside, I CAPITALIZED boyfriend, that means it is MORE IMPORTANT than mere relationships with others, it clearly means a SHOPPERTUNITY!!
We are attempting to put off the girlfriend/boyfriend thing indefinitely, like until the youngest is 40 or so. That will give us time to prepare.
difficult child may or may not have one, I really would not know or want to. he will be 16 soon. I shudder to remember what my friends were like.
I was the boring one who rarely caused trouble and had parents who had good reason to trust her. ALL my friends parents would say something was OK if I was allowed to go, because I was so terribly boring and responsible. Even drives 75 miles away to go to the mall were OK at 16. If I (of hte blemishless record) was driving.
So, of course boyfriend means Black Friday. In my neat little world, where we have no MonkeyBoy's coming to dinner, and no Wingnuts with babies and no parenting skills. Well, we might, I just haven't noticed yet. Lucky me!!!
Hugs,
Susie
