Oh my heck. I just had to post this. Ken's little cousin came over to spend the night last night and told me the funniest thing. I laughed so hard and wish I could of witnessed the whole event. Hearing about it was funny enough for now. I hope they took pictures!
So I guess last week some of Ken's Cousins kids skipped school and went to get there ears pierced. That would be ok if they were girls. You guessed it 3 teenage boys decided to get pierced ears. All cousins. Love it. My boys would of had the earrings ripped out before they were even fully through the front door.
One parent told his boy to get the earring's out in the next 2 seconds or he would rip it out and grounded him for 5 weeks. That is good parenting! Ken would have done something in the same area.
But......What the other Parent did is the best. He lets them wears there big studded earring's they picked out to get there ears pierced in . And the best part yet...... Made them put on dresses!!!!!!! and it even gets better. Took them down to the local Walmart and they had to walk around in the store. and it even gets better yet. Took them to the teenage girl sections and made them pick out a top and skirt and go to the dressing rooms and try them on. Mind you they had to go to the men's dressing rooms. Then took them to the bra and under section. During their time in the store he is walking behind them making comments drawing attention to the boys. I love it. The boys about died and took the earrings out.
This reminded me when Chrissy lied to me and I was so mad. I wrote BIG FAT LIAR on her forehead with a marker and made her wear it all day. She learned not to lie. She is a terrible liar to this day. I received a free smoothie from a guy up town and had lots of parents tell me that it was a good idea. I am sure all you parents that do things by the book think I am terrible but it worked and we laugh about it now!
WOW! What an awesome story! Teenagers can be such a TRIAL! I'd love to know who did what to whom . . . but I know you can't get as detailed as that! I also love the "big fat liar" story too!
ReplyDeleteThat is sooo funny...I like that kind a parenting, I bet the boys were about in tears.
ReplyDeleteI am writing that in my "ideas for the future" book of parenting. That is just great. I'm so going to do that to Jake if he comes home with an earring. Oh, and the liar thing- BRILLIANT. Stealing that idea, too.
