questions

1. Is there any point in telling a boy to stop playing with his penis? ("PeeeEEEnith!")

2. Is it appropriate to use the handicap placard to park close to the store if there are no carts in any of the cart corrals so I don't have to haul my 30 pounds of beefy man child across the whole parking lot? Even if I don't use his walker?

3. Am I too old, at 27, to get my lip pierced? The more I think about it, the more I really want it done. My mom would not be happy.

1. No. Unless he's like 12.

2. You could make the argument that the vast majority of children who reach 30 pounds are walking themselves into the store, and since he's handicapped, you have to carry him, which is an undue burden.... etc.

3a. To actually answer the question, yes. You're too old to rebel against your parents and too young to have a midlife crisis. Mothers shouldn't get things pierced. It's against the natural order of things.

3b. I fail to see how a lip piercing is attractive on a 16-year-old, a 27-(almost 28-)year-old, or a 50-year-old, or why you would want one. Of course, that's irrelevant, but I feel the need to throw it out there.

3c. What is relevant is that your husband, to whom you are joined in the bonds of Christian marriage, has spoken on the issue.

2. Yes.

3. Ask your hubby not your mom.

#1 there is no point. i think it makes it even worse.

oh, and if you pierce your lip, and you take the stud out, will food fall out of your mouth thru the hole? just wondering.
and no, you are not too old to get one because I'm not too old (34) to get a tattoo.

1. I'm going to ignore the penis thing because I havent' gotten there yet.

2. I think having to haul a child who SHOULD be walking qualifies as a handicap. It's hard for me to get Charlie's chunky twenty-three pound body into stores--I'm not sure i could do it at thirty pounds and you have a bad back.

3. You could pierce your lip, but that's supposed to be one of the prime infection places due to all the food and stuff that gets so close. Of course, they say that about belly button rings and mine was never infected the seven years I had it.

1. The best you can aim for is getting him to do it privately once he understands private. Just never, EVER make him feel bad about his little experiments unless he's still doing it publically when he's 12. It's completely natural and we don't wanna give him little hangups.

2. Please. I don't think there is any handicapped person who would have a problem with that. Now, if you use the placard when you're NOT with Ace, they'd want to rip your legs off.

3. The lip piercing could look cool ONLY if you go for the whole look. Lip piercing on someone who is otherwise an average suburban Mom--Dumb! It's not a matter of too old, just whether it's actually you. It's not. That'd be like me putting a big ol' bow in my hair.
