For example, my four year old is always trying to escape-except of course when I tell him to go outside and play. Do other people&#8217;s children escape or is it only mine? I have no memory of my brothers trying to escape, and my mother assured me they did. As a matter of fact, I recall a time when my middle brother was 8 (he is now an 18 year old freshman at Cornell), he and my mother got into some fight and she told him to take a walk until he calmed down. He took her advice, walked to Sam Goody to purchase himself a Michael Jackson tape. My parents called the police on him and they found him right away. So other people&#8217;s kids do escape and actually go further than the backyard.<br \/>\nI was feeling a little better about not having <b>the<\/b> world&#8217;s worst kids until I received a phone call from an old acquaintance. I was dozing off due to Posco&#8217;s reading lesson when my friend called. Everyone who was sitting calmly and sedated started running around, tossing things, grabbing cookies and undressed the baby from the waist down who proceeded to leave a present for me on the floor that was intended to stay in the diaper. All it takes is a 15 minute attempt at an adult phone call and now I feel &#8220;done&#8221; for the day. Dh will not be home until 9.30, seven hours and counting, Ugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was wondering this morning if all parents think their children do the most horrible things that other people&#8217;s children do not do.
