So what is a reasonable penalty for waking Mom up early on the weekend?
Am I asking too much to think he can watch cartoons while I sleep for another hour or so? Or at least get me some f'n toaster waffles as an apology for waking me up?
Five years and the kid still hasn't realized I'm an utter bitch in the mornings. I shelter him.
7. We weren't allowed out of bedroom unless an adult was up
My parents were too afraid of the wave of destruction we'd cause with no supervision. We could read or play with toys in our own rooms as long as we were quiet.
Of course, there were a brazillion of us, not one little Lefty.
I have three older sisters and my mom worked nights as a nurse. Whenever we get together, she still points out to my sisters that I was the only one who let her sleep and knew how to field what was and was not an emergency. Yes, she holds grudges.And not a morning person.
I got pressed into service as the answerer of phones and daytime business agent as soon as I was old enough to handle a phone call- 7 or so. Waking him up for anything shy of the house catching fire? I'd still be grounded. :scared:
