I received this email today and thought I would pass it along to all the other parents of school aged kids...

Here is one to ponder on.

A mother passing by her daughter's bedroom was astonished to see the
bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then she saw an
envelope propped up prominently on the center of the bed. It was
addressed, "Mom." With the worst premonition, she opened the envelope
and read the letter with trembling hands: Dear Mom, It is with
great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I had to elope with
my new boyfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with Dad and you.
I've been finding real passion with John and he is so nice - even with
all his piercings, tattoos, beard, and his motorcycle clothes. But it's
not only the passion mom, I'm pregnant and John said that we will be
very happy. He already owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of
firewood for the whole winter. He wants to have many more children
with me and that's now one of my dreams too. John taught me that
marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone and we'll be growing, it for us
and trading it with his friends for all the cocaine and ecstasy we
want. In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a cure for
AIDS so John can get better; he sure deserves it!! Don't worry Mom, I'm
15 years old now and I know how to take care of myself. Some day I'm
sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your grandchildren.
Your daughter,
Judith
PS : Mom, none of the above is true. I'm over at the neighbor's house. I
just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than my
report card that's in my desk drawer.
I love you!
Call when it is safe for me to come home.
 
:hyper: That was great. As a mother of 4 girls, I was worried at the beginning, but now that I have read it, it sounds like something my 9 yo would come up with.:rolleyes:
 
This was a GREAT wake up call to some of us parents out here who choose to forget that there are things in life far worse than the "little" things that we get upset by day after day.
 

I liked that while at the same time seeing images of my DD12 racing though my head! :crazy2:
