This absolutely infuriates me, Gabz.
How dare these public school apparatchiks interfere with parental authority and destroy trust between a child and his parent?
These socialist, brainwashing, intellectually barren, useful idiot SOB's are cheerfully hacking away at the foundations of the country.
But I guess as long as their pensions are safe - hey, who cares? It's for "the children."
Evil bastards and probably too stupid to realize it.
Head Start is not the public school here.
She's not getting this in school, thankfully.
With that said - I agree wholeheartedly with everything else you are saying!!!!!
You're killing me..............
Your post really raised my hackles up.
When my grandaughter was in kindergarten she left school crying,saying,"Grammy is going to die". When my daughter questioned her she found out they had discussed the dangers of smoking in KINDERGARTEN!
My daughter,a non smoker,called the school and gave them hell for getting into something like that at such a young age.
I understand exactly what you are saying.
I would have done exactly what your daughter did, had it been in school where she got this from. But in this case the school can't be blamed, because the one that said it to her did not get it from school.
As far as I am concerned these anti-smoker-anti-drinker messages being shoved down the throats of children is counter productive.
There are a lot of things that only adults can do and no one questions adults who do them in front of children, do they? Of course not. Guess what? Smoking and drinking should be treated the same way.
this crapola has nothing to do with children and everything about control.
You're too much!!!!!
Here's one for the gals.........
Good Grief woman - now you want me to lose my dinner??????
HEY! Now I owe you both lunch AND DINNER?????
You're too funny!!!!!
sometimes............... :) When I don't get too "serious" about everything.......
LOL!
hehe!

Ahhhh. On the serious side, I'll let you in on a little something. I've been fat and uncomfortable before. It's a killer in the middle of life or later, especially when the feet start getting numb, dizziness occurs, or something like that. Also, it's very difficult to avoid smoking for those who can't get much sleep (military service, late shifts, other problems).
We all have blemishes and the like. I don't really look down on anyone because of physical problems. We laugh as much as we can, try to be healthy, and live as long as we can. IMO, too much sensitivity is a killer, too. It's no more than another vanity trap.
Oh! GROSS!!
You sure have that right!!
