The
things I hear from people I’m around continue to surprise me.
Family members in jail/prison/probation.
People with ignition interlocks (DUI).
Family members dead from drug overdoses.
Family members having babies with no wedded
father.
Households with a mix of boyfriends, nieces,
nephews, grandparents.
Children growing up with a revolving door of
adults in their lives.
Children moving from household to household.
Damn, I
lead a boring personal life, and I am
thankful I do.

I see a lot of kids with interesting home lives. All of my current crop are well cared for, though, despite the upheaval they have at home. They're loved and valued. But my GOD the drama of the parents! The stories I sometimes hear from kids and from their parents (evidently I'm the day care equivalent of a bartender, because people tell me everything) are amazing. I don't repeat what I've been told, so I guess their confidence is justified. But I second the whole 'yay for boring' thing. :)
Amen to that... I'm glad I'm not a kid today...
They are fortunate to have you to talk to.
But then.....Jerry Springer would be outta work!
Springer - Another reason to not have a television in my house.
Yes, indeed. If their lives are full of action, no thanks. LOL
