[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 77100, member: 1991"] OK, I have to share TWO things - First, my best friend has an accident-prone difficult child-ish son. He's doing well now but still irresponsible. I remember when difficult child 3 was born, she visited with her two kids (her son was 12 at the time) and, like a lot of boys surrounded by an overly female adult atmosphere, he got bored and wandered off. We were just wondering where he might be and I recalled him looking over my balcony with interest at the roof of the floor two levels below, and I looked - and there he was! He had decided to explore - and I knew this hospital well enough to shudder, he HAD to have walked through the delivery floor lounge room for mothers in early labour, gone out to their balcony, climbed over the railing and gone for his walk on the roof. As we watched, security came heading towards him and a few minutes later he was delivered back to us and my friend decided in a hurry to leave, gripping him by his ear lobe. Over the years he fractured his skull swinging on a rope over the river (lucky he wasn't killed), gashed his leg, broke his arm, bought himself a motorbike and smashed it and himself badly, requiring several bones to be pinned, and more. For his 21st birthday party, where most parents hang up photos of their son at various ages, my friend hung up his X-rays from over the years. Sweet revenge! And the second thing - I mentioned the fun and games with APEC two weeks ago. The TV comedy team responsible for the stunt put another comedy sketch on their show - it was a faked ad, for laundry detergent called "Emo - deal with stains by dying it all black." The character in the ad was saying, "Wow - my clothes have shrunk, they don't fit, they look drab - just like my life! Thank you, Emo!" or similar. I wish I could remember the whole sketch, but by now it will be somewhere on Youtube, along with their Osama bin Laden stunt. So, talking about difficult teen boys (especially with injuries), plus the references to Calgon - had to share! Just remember, the 21st birthday party is when every parent has the opportunity to be avenged - the last opportunity before grandkids come along. So begin your preparations now. Marg [/QUOTE]
