Awesome. I wish Shuke were my Dad. But then again, he won't accept FB friend requests if hasn't met you, so chances are slim that he'd adopt me.'boilerdave said:

Marvin and other teachers in the GMTAN, does your school have a rule about handing out invitations to parties? My kid's school does, if you invite 1 kid in class, you have to invite them all, and I have to say it is the suck.
-fish-
Footballguy
my kid's school has that rule, but only if you pass out invitations in class. put them in the mail and you can exclude the booger eaters and finger sniffers all you want.

If you invite them through/during class. If you happen to collect emails/addresses of the ones you want to invite individually, no such rule.WTF????

Nah. That's not much of a problem in middle school. I'm trying to remember if there was a rule at my kids' elementary school.

That would be fine but it's these people you speak of that are handing them out in class. My wife got burned once already, I think I posted about it here, where Cal got invited to a birthday party, the kid with the mohawk? At least she knew who the kid was because he is in the same Scout troop but it turned out to be a family party and like 3 classmates plus Cal. So my wife got to hang out with this kids Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents for 2.5 hours which is pretty awesome really.
Anyhow, he got invited to another party last weekend where we didn't have ANY idea who the kid even was. So Cal is all upset about not going while I had to explain to him stupid rules adults make to try and spare the feelings of kids. Surprisingly enough he understood and thinks it is stupid too.

So we go anyway, but usually you hand out these invites and it's to some organized party (pump it up, roller skating, ice skating etc). It actually helps us because my daughter is in school for only 3 weeks before her birthday.That said, still a stupid rule....

It's another one of those stupid things people do these days to keep kids from having to deal with ANY sort of disappointment in their lives. Absolutely ridiculous.We had a female PE teacher here a couple of years ago that didn't believe in having the kids do anything competitive. No football, kickball, dodgeball, capture the flag etc. I'm not kidding.WTF????
He class consisted of dancing, aerobics, par-courses etc. The only time you kept score was to measure your personal bests against yourselves. No teams, no winners, no losers.
I spent most of the school year restraining myself from kicking her in the clam.

I mean, I'm not going to some kid's party but "come over and hang out with my dopey family at my house and I don't know you" is freaking ridiculous.

It's like with youth soccer. For the first couple of years they don't keep score or have "winners". Now I agree, to a certain extent, that there are some people that go overboard with kids' sports. 5 and 6 year olds should learn to play the game, have fun, develop skills etc. But every single kid on that field new what the score was and who had more goals at the end...and they lived if they didn't win.I remember my older son's first T-ball game. He grounded out to 1st. Like a normal human being he headed towards the dugout. Of course the rules stated that you got to stay on base no matter what. My kid refused to go to first base. I finally convinced him to just do it. After the inning was over he comes over to me and says "that's a really stupid rule".

Oh, it also creeps into the classroom. About 8 years ago there was a movement to get teachers to stop using red pens or pencils to grade student work. Seems the color red hurt their self-esteem. You were supposed to use purple ink instead.In many places teachers are told to not let kids grade other kid's work (spelling tests, quizzes etc). You wouldn't want anybody knowing that little Timmy failed his latest test. That might make him feel bad.It's another one of those stupid things people do these days to keep kids from having to deal with ANY sort of disappointment in their lives.

This reminds me of a girl I went out with a long time ago. She and I dated for a year or so on and off before she moved to San Francisco. We tried the long-distance thing for a short time since I was going up there fairly frequently. I found out she was sleeping around and I broke it off over the phone.She sent me a long, sappy, handwritten letter about how much she cared about me and wanted to work things out. I corrected her spelling and grammar with a red pen and sent it back. I ran into her a few years later and she told me that was the most cold and insulting thing that anyone had ever done to her. Red pens work.

If I actually was forced to use purple ink I would simply changed the way I graded things:"Indent here, stupid" "Tennessee was not one of the 13 Colonies, Copernicus" "This just sucks".

I finally cracked open the laptop last night, downloaded the VBD excel thing, and... watched the Ranger game and drank whiskey. I'm hoping to magically acquire some knowledge before the auction, which is about 3 hours away. Doesn't help that today has been my busiest work day in months. Just becoming more and more disinterested in magic football every year. I am looking forward to the $2 pints and free food though. Here's to another 4-8 season...

He is only 5 so it isn't like he's 12. He went into kindergarten this year at 3'11" and uses it to enforce his will on the field. Little dhead.

Sadly I was sober, it would make explaining it so much better. It was four weeks ago yesterday. My ability to take a punch was put to the test when I jumped into a pool, smashed my head open and broke my neck. Still some mild suffering from the concussion and back pain. It is next to impossible to sleep and given that I already have insomnia and a mind that won't quit, is my biggest issue. Otherwise I'm fine. I'm hoping to be able to start getting hammered again in the next couple of days. I really need it. And to be clear, I don't WANT booze, I NEED booze. I hate to admit it but I have some severe depression going on too. This is my second major concussion in 3 years and I had at least 6-12 of them between fights/brawls & football when I was a yute. I understand it is par for the course.My link
