No, you may NOT try cutting "just a little piece" of your hair with the

[ScreamingMeemie]

pinking shears! I love my six year old. :crazy:

1. It gets better.

n/t

[ScreamingMeemie]

4. My daughter was never like this. My son? Gotta keep one eye on the

boy all the time. :hi:

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

2. hehe!

My brother is almost 20 and he *still* does that.

:D

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. Somehow, this is strangely comforting.

:) At least I know it's "normal". ;)

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

29. Well

My brother is also a jazz musician... so... "normal" is definitely negotiable.

[Cuban_Liberal]

5. Sounds like he's a live wire.

'All boy', I bet!

:D

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. He is every bit "boy in trouble".

:) But it keeps me young. ;)

[trof]

6. hey, serrated bangs!

Way cool!
Go for it!

[ScreamingMeemie]

11. A new trend. Ya think?

:hi:

[loudestchick]

7. Each and everyone of my kids has cut their own hair at one point.

My son nearly balded himself in front, my oldest has done it so many times(I lose count) my youngest cut her beautiful red hair...so she could look like her "big" brother!

9. My sister and I use to "cut" each other's hair

when we were little. It's normal!

You're still a good mommy!!:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. My daughter did this when she was five. When I wnet to check on her,

I tried to go in her room and she slammed the door...right on my hand. It was a double whammy. :hi:

[loudestchick]

20. That same oldest child was just partially evicerated by one of our cats!

She has a series of scratches that are all oozing a bit of blood (she'd just gotten out of the shower after b-ball practice)...with the cold temps the kitties amuse themselves by chjasing and fighting each other...when they're not trying to "bring down the tree".

[Xithras]

10. Both of my older kids have done it

My son removed half the hair from the front of his head once...two days before school photos.

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. Hats are a nice thing.

And bows for girls. ;) :hi:

[mondo joe]

14. Oh you should totally let the kid give himself a hair do

You'll have great photos for a lifetime.

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. Heheheheh. That would be so worth it to show his future girlfriends.

Right up there with the time he used my lipstick for indian "warpaint". He was only three but he got the marks symmetrical and everything. :hi:

[geniph]

15. Hell, I still cut my own hair

and I'm 45. I still occasionally butcher it too. However, the advantage of having hip-length hair is that it's tolerant of those kinds of errors. Just cut a little more off to even it up.

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. Heh. I cut all of our hair. Used to do it as a living. I pull mine forward

and do the best that I can. :hi:

[dolo amber]

16. My 4 yr old...anytime W is on tv or radio, says...

"George Bush?? He's an asshat!" :o

I can't imagine WHERE she picked up such a thing... O8)

[ScreamingMeemie]

19. I would have NO idea where that came from. Perhaps the media?

:shrug:



;)

[dolo amber]

22. I'm sure it was that damned Librul media

:grr:

For the record, I have tried to curb her enthusiam...for the most part she's stopped but now and then she slips...who could blame her?

;)

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

31. haha

I'd get an audio recording or video of that sometime... priceless! ;)

[arwalden]

21. Keep Him Away From The Hole Puncher, "Safety" Pins...

... thumbtacks, push-pins, hat-pins, and permanent markers, fountain pens and RIT dye.

[ScreamingMeemie]

23. I think I will just get one of Joan Crawford's bed safes. Good idea?

Those are truly frightening pictures. :scared: He just used 8 oz. of glue for a "project". :hi:

[arwalden]

24. You're A Good Mother... STRAP HIM IN!!!

Then torment his sister so that he'll stay in line (or else)! You're sure to win that MOTHER OF THE YEAR award this year!! Good luck!

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. You know anyplace where I can get some good heavy gauge wire hangers?

;)

[HEyHEY]

25. Tell er to use the hedgetrimmers

[HEyHEY]

26. Man you just brought back a terrible memory

It involves my pointer...pruning shears...and a panicked mother.

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. Tell! Tell! That sounds like an awesome bedtime story!!!

:bounce:

[HEyHEY]

30. I was on the front lawn (about five)

My mom was doing garen work and I was just playing with the shears. My parents liked to let us leanr life's lesson by ourselves. Suddenly the handle go loose and shhhhhhpppp the tip of my finger was cut off. My mom ran me to the washroom....my sister was using it...so we went to the otehr one...there was blood everywhere. Then she ran water on it for a bit to clean it. And then let it be. Packed it with gauze and taped it up.

I wen tot the doctor later.

That was my first real experience in learning that I could bleed.

[ScreamingMeemie]

32. Ouch!!!! That would be enough to keep my hedges overgrown for the

rest of my life. Yewoch!
