[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 727927, member: 1550"] Hi, Old Hand ;). I'm past the little kid age and I don't see dirty diapers lying around either. But I sort of space out when anyone brags about a family member or spouse. I like my own kid's and spouse, thank you, and am hard to impress since I don't see that college or degrees make you a better person or even better employed than people with two year relavant degrees. And it doesn't make you a caring person, which I value above all else. Old hand, I rarely tell this to anyone because I don't expect people to believe it and Jumper was only advanced in some ways, not academically. But I swear she walked in the middle of her seventh month lol. Princess was babysitting so we missed the first steps. We came home, she was running. She also taught herself to potty on her little toilet by 18 months. I never bothered to sit and coach my kid's pottying. They did it when they did it. Jumper copied big people always. Now Jumper had learning disabilities and did not read until eight and was in special education for a while but she walked at seven months. As God is my witness. I am so bored by those, especially people I barely know, who brag....about their kids, their spouses jobs or their degrees. So this would be a pet peeve too. It's one reason I don't like FB. FB to me is like one big Christmas Brag letter. Remember those? ;) in their day, they were a pet peeve too. [/QUOTE]
