I had dinner with my family this week TWICE! This is a good thing, .5 is about the average. Asked Cal about his GF Wednesday night and he looked down at his plate, grinning ear-to-ear, blushing, and says "she's fine". Have to admit, I was a bit jealous that he's going into sexual fun time while I'm thumbing a ride for the next good time.
This morning, getting up at 6am sucks, before school I asked if he had any buddies he hung around with at school. He sheepishly replied, "not really, I guess, I don't know". Didn't break my heart because he was really popular in elementary school but just didn't realize it. Figure I would tackle it later.
Then I get an e-mail he has all A's through the semester. Pretty proud.
Late this afternoon, I get an e-mail from his IEP that he mouthed off to a couple of admins. He can be a GIANT #######, like his mother, so don't doubt this for a minute. E-mail back I would talk to him and I did.
:takesdrink:
He owns up to what he did but explained it is because this kid keeps picking on him and they won't do anything about it. Actually happy about this, they shouldn't do anything about it. Cal is a strong kid put a pacifist. As long as you're not his little brother, you're more than safe. Of course his little brother can take him now.
Training has already begun for Cal to kick this kid's ###.

I've decided to steal Norm from Cheers shtick. Whenever somebody asks me how I'm doing, I'll have some sort of witty reply. I just started using "just trying to figure out why life has a beef with me".

My 14yr old daughter was in tears after school today because one of her friends got a surprise bday party and her locker decorated. My daughter got neither on her early January bday, so she felt like her friends didn't like her. Was having trouble with what to say, felt like a ####ty dad.

that would have been good, i kind of froze. i talked about next year... no one did anything special on my birthday either...sometimes people do things special for other people doesn't mean they don't like you etc...but none of that seemed to help her much. I ended up just giving her a long hug and telling her "I love you" and "you'll always be my #1 kid" (she was the first). That seemed to do more good than anything.

Well, plus more than one has married GM.
Sounds like you handled it great, Tommy. 4yo floppinha is going to be all kinds of emotional mess as a teen given what we're already seeing. My knee jerk (emphasis on the second word) reaction of laughing probably won't work quite as well in a few years.

I think I've told this story before but maybe not
A few summers ago we took a family vacation to Rehoboth beach Delaware
One night we went for crabs (I'm the only one who likes them but they have other stuff too)
So being a fatty I order a dozen medium sized crabs which based on them being the size of salad plates I think may have been for sharing but the waitress didn't tell me that so I get a mountain of crabs covered in old bay...it's cool I'm a fat ####
So my oldest (I think 4 or 5 at the time) starts saying I Don't Like The Smell I DONT LIKE THE SMELL!! and starts gagging and finally barfs a tiny bit in the bucket intended for crab remains
I've eaten like maybe one crab in this time and it's still getting to him so my wife takes him down to the sidewalk for a minute (we're on an outdoor deck)
My youngest soon follows and now I'm just sitting there with about 10 giant crabs left. No way I can sit and eat these by myself while they just hang out (already yelling they want to go to Funland) so I get a to go bag, only our hotel is a few miles away do I just leave them in the car on a hot July night and hope for the best
Get back to hotel a few hours later and ate the rest of them out of the hotel sink so The Smell wouldn't bother anyone.

Friendship means being nice to people not getting mad or being jealous. It's OK to feel jealous but it's not nice to make other people feel bad when they try to do something nice for each other.
If you friend does something nice for your other friend and you get mad, you're not being a good friend.
If you want something and you don't tell your friends that you want it, then you get mad at your friends for not giving it to you, you're not being a good friend.
Your daughter was right - having someone make a big deal about your birthday feels really nice. Doing something nice for people feels really nice. Having another friend act upset about it doesn't feel nice.
The takeaways here are to try to be happy for your friends. And remember how this felt and to try not to make other people feel that way. Be nice to the person who hasn't had their turn in the sun for a while. And when you have a friend who gets jealous or sad in a similar spot, remember how you felt and be nice to them because you understand where they're coming from.

Rules!
My brother & I went to the MLB All Star game when it was at Camden Yards in Baltimore. We had a room in a hotel like two blocks from the ball park (I think it was the Holiday Inn). We ordered crabs the day of the game from Obreckis and had a cab deliver them. They got there right before we were leaving for the game, so we came back drunk as #### around midnight and had a crab feast in the room. We left the next morning without cleaning up. Left $40 for the poor soul that had to clean that room.
