Insanity is genetic,: January 2013
http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Sunday, January 13, 2013. Give your kids a bullshit detector. This is how I convinced my 19 year old brother that eating neon birthday candles would give him brightly colored poop, like an Easter egg. So bringing this back to parenting, because this is a parenting blog, we do the same to our children. We tell them the way the world works. A millions whys follow and we try to answer them all. Usually arriving at the destined conclusion of :i...Instead t...

Insanity is genetic,: March 2013
http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Friday, March 22, 2013. So I ran across this on Facebook, about 20 mins after I gave one of my dogs away. I 98% agree with this. Pets are a great way to teach kids responsibility and compassion. Sometimes however it is more responsible to give a pet up than to keep trying to fix them. I felt really bad sending him away. I try to teach my kids that your responsibility to others does not end when it becomes hard or inconvenient and here I am sending ...

http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2012/12/letter-to-santa-2012.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Tuesday, December 4, 2012. Letter to Santa 2012. I have been a pretty good girl this year. I only drank till I puked once. That is one day out of 365 or 0.0027% of the time. That is pretty impressive considering 100% of the time I am have a hankering to get puke your guts up and black out drunk. Ok that last bit was a bit of an exaggeration. That urge goes away when all the kids and sleeping and I am watching Big Bang Theory. Because I said so. TOP Rev...

Insanity is genetic,: September 2012
http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Wednesday, September 19, 2012. Be the person you want your kids to be. So gram has been here almost 2 weeks now. My house is a write off, I hurt in places I didn't know I had muscles and I think I need a good stiff drink. Sometimes it is necessary to institutionalize the elderly. Sometimes they need more than we can offer or need 24 hr a day medical care. I don't want to raise kids who view that as a first resort. I want my kids to value th...The monst...

Insanity is genetic,: May 2012
http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Monday, May 7, 2012. Holy crap, it really is over. Galactus slept in his big boy bed for the first time last night. I just realized that by this time next week I could be returning the crib Dad made, for the last time. It is the same crib I used for my eldest almost 10 years ago. Galactus is also showing some interest in potty training. That means after this summer I will never have to change a diaper again unless I choose. To care for a kid in diapers.

Insanity is genetic,: This shit is not ok
http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2012/07/this-shit-is-not-ok.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Tuesday, July 3, 2012. This shit is not ok. Here is the video that sparked this post. This is the reality that many women live with. I have watched women cover the busies and stop smiling so no one would see their broken teeth. Sometimes the men who did this to them come from violent homes. Others have mothers who would be shocked. And yes it is wrong but I was actually GLAD peoepl were bitching about the song because it meant they were talking about a...

Insanity is genetic,: Call me slacker mom
http://parentingiscrazy.blogspot.com/2012/06/call-me-slacker-mom.html
Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Wednesday, June 13, 2012. Call me slacker mom. I have never claimed to be super mom. My kids don't eat an organic diet, they watch TV and play video games, they have dirty faces and I wouldn't change it for anything in the world. It never occurred to me that I would be judged on my toddlers table manners. That having spaghetti in your eyebrows at two was socially unacceptable. Judge away I say. Let your inner asshattery show. Before a wedding yes, befo...

Advice you didn't ask for: October 2014
http://domesticunbliss.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Advice you didn't ask for. Thursday, October 23, 2014. We are better than this Canada. Yesterday something horrible happened in Ottawa. A solider was shot and killed. It is always a tragedy when someones life is taken by violence. In this case it was also shocking because the solider was not embroiled in combat but standing guard beside our war memorial. This is the second solider who was attacked in Canada by Terrorist. You think that sounds crazy? I saw THREE separate people share this. Most people (my...

Advice you didn't ask for: Christmas with no commercials
http://domesticunbliss.blogspot.com/2013/12/christmas-with-no-commercials.html
Advice you didn't ask for. Thursday, December 26, 2013. Christmas with no commercials. I have seen a lot of post on social media from friends who live away complaining about the commercialization of Christmas. About kids who were not grateful, about burnt turkeys. Locally I have seen ZERO complaints. And we are heading into day four of a power outage for many people. Some will not get their power back until after the new year. Christmas happened in our town. It happened in many others. It happene...I bou...

Insanity is genetic,: June 2012

Insanity is genetic,. You get it from your children. Wednesday, June 27, 2012. The language of hate. Babies are not born hating people. Kids do not naturally discriminate. In some cases the teaching is obvious and overt. Let's face it no one is going to be surprised if this guys kid is a racist homophobic. Most of us however a bit more evolved than him and teach our children tolerance and acceptance. Have you or people you invite into your home ever used the phrase "nigger rigged"? The fact that this is ...
