I was always a hardass on the kids coming to my bed.
After they stopped nursing, no more bed..
Just my opinion, but they can't ever come into our bed.. Once that starts, it's almost impossible to stop. And they won't outgrow it either.. I knew someone who's 13 year old still did it..

You just got to make up your mind that it won't happen anymore, and tell the kids.
The first month or so will be hell, but every time they come in, you have to put them back in their own bed, no matter how much crying or whatever happens.. It's hard to do when you're really tired, but you got to do it..

That's what I'd do. Phrozt has DS really well trained. For a while he wouldn't get outta bed in the morning until Phrozt got him out and he'd call to us if he had to go to the bathroom early in the morning. Now on weekends we told him he can get outta bed when he wakes up if he wants and go play downstairs or just in his bedroom...but he doesn't get outta bed once we put him down at night.

But I've always been a hardass on bedtime. I had a lot of kids that I babysat whose parents would let them sleep anywhere and everywhere and I always said that you sleep in your own bed, no one else's!

I gotta take my game up a notch, this year. I'm in both SS's, and buying for two distinctly different personalities.

I got 2 bites on my car. Someone just test drove it and is going to give me a call back after he talks to his insurance agency. It's for his daughter.
Did you figure out what was causing the code in regards to the EVAP?

No, and I'm not going to wait around with it to find out. I was going to, but all of the cars like mine are listed well below KBB and NADA. it's not worth it to spend the money and fix it.

Aside for checking for obvious vacuum leaks, that would have been my ideology also. There are just to many possible causes and it is far from a mission critical system...

Hope one of the buyers comes through for ya.

Wow...I don't let kids sleep with me...you always hafta knock first before you come in and if you get in bed for a bit...as soon as you're asleep...you're back in your own bed. That's how I grew up and that's how my kids will.
It's a little different when it's your own kids as opposed to someone else's.

Quote from nessykins :
This is the same problem I have. Also, if I put her back in her bed she starts crying and wakes up the baby.

:sigh:
Yeah, that really sucks. We had that problem with our kiddo for a while. How old is she now, nessy? She's like 5 or 6, right?


On the plus side, remember she will grow out of it! What teenager wants to sleep with their parents? Stick Out Tongue

DS is ours and he is hardly ever allowed in our room...and it'll be the same way with the others...when they come along.

Quote from ILove.Asian.Girls888 :
If you have good enough aim, use a 30-30 or similar variation rifle and you can really test your accuracy skills.
As opposed to what? Are you inferring you have to be a better shot to use a rifle over a shotgun with slug?

Hunting with a rpg, would be easier than a rifle no doubt (plus you cook it all in one shot Big Grin), but I don't know many places that allow that.
