6. I don't think we should judge people on how well behaied their kids are

sorry, maybe its just me and of course I wasn't there so don't know but I know mothers who live and die for people to think her children are well behaved. For me, I want people to think my kids are happy.

I don't want them to annoy others but sometimes I see a prim little kid acting like an adult and I wonder if the parents are too strict or its just the kid. My son was naturally shy and not so energetic so he didn't misbehave much. My grandson, on the other hand, is a ball of fire. My lessons to him are not to be loud, stay out of people's way, clean up after yourself but if its okay to do so, running around is not always the worst thing in the world.

(Sorry, pet peeve based on d-i-l)
