They already are emotionally.

Try hanging out at the orphanage.

Take a cue from the cat. Not bothering anyone.

A kinder way: “You two need to go outside to play for awhile.”

Come back at Five.

The bus for Duluth leaves at 3:00

i’d like to try that approach with the shrieking little monsters next door…

There were times when I would have liked being away from the ruckus of noisy children. Now I am old and enjoy it more. The little kids in my neighborhood play on their bicycles and scooters back and forth up and down the street. No fighting just happy play. But I would not want to live with them in the same house.

The cat, however, may stay!

There are times when honesty may not be the best policy.

This is why we had our basement finished and put all the toys down there.

Like Four or Five States Away?

“Go see what your father is doing.”

HEY! You wanted those rugrats! Now deal with it!

Why don’t you want to run away from home like normal kids?

Is Cincinnati far enough Mommy?…..

Ok, where’s the funny part here? It totally missed me.

And in 50 years she will be whining about the fact they never visit. Enjoy them while you can.

That wasn’t a nice way to ask the kids :-(

“I don’t care what you do, just go do it somewhere else.”
