Ok, so I've gotten over the fact that I have a coworker who constantly complains about not getting enough sleep because of her 16 month old son. I just ignore it now. But today she said something that nearly set me off. I had to literally bite my tongue not to say anything. Basically she said she wanted to ditch her son and go take a tour of some buildings in DC. Why would you want to ditch your son? Even that young, he may enjoy going and being with his parents. He's only a handful because you have made him that way. There is something called discipline. I just looked at her and said "You want to ditch your son? Why would you do that?" She then gave me some lame excuse, "Well, I don't think he would do well on the tour." So what?! You never know until you try. Being a parent includes learning how to handle your child in different situations. If you didn't want to be tied down with a kid then use birth control. Or give him up for adoption to a family who really deserves a child because its obvious she doesn't deserve him. WTF! I really need something right now. I am so mad I'm shaking. I can't believe someone would even say that. OMFG, can I smack her yet?

That might be assault or at the very least battery, damn jail terms. But you can slap the shit out of her with words. That's what I do, but it's definitely not easy to choose the right ones. Good luck and if all else fails smash some glass!
Ok seriously! people like that piss me off!My kids go everywhere with me! I would never dream of "ditching them"! Grrrr makes me wonder!
Oh my goodness the stupid crap that comes out of people's mouths. Aaarrgghh! That would have pissed me off, too.
Well, I bought a punching bag, I firmly believe it has saved a few lives, and kept me out of jail on occasion. I too am amazed at the thoughts of others, and sometimes I do tell them, "well, God could take yours tomorrow, would you be tired of them then?" But I try to only speak when I am in control.
