My Life in a Nutshell..

Postby copkid » Fri Nov 14, 2008 2:51 pm

My son just emailed this pic of a t-shirt from a BOA contest he is at. (Bands Over America). Too bad I didn't send him with enough money to buy it! :lol:

Agreed. They don't care....I sent each child $10. I'll bet they weren't able to get barely a pretzel and drink with that...

It ain't the kids they are taking advantage of - it's the parents they are taking advantage of. They know where those kids are getting their money.

I love the shirt! My oldest wasn't interested in band but would like to learn to play guitar. My youngest is showing some interest but is too young yet. Regardless, they still cost a bunch of money!

Laura, if you find a way to get them to keep their rooms cleaned, please pass the secret on to me. We're fighting a losing battle on that front!
