Saddest Thing I've Ever Heard.

I took my nieces to their ballet/jazz class today because their mother was busy. I am sitting here waiting for them and listening to the conversations of the moms around me, and I am left speechless....
There is a girl that looks to be about 8 years old. She turns to her mother and says, "Mom, I don't like wearing these shorts cause they make my thighs look fat."
..............WTF????????............
That wasn't what shocked me the most. It was what the mother replied. She goes, "Yes, and you can see all your cellulite."
What kind of mother says that to their 8 year old that she has cellulite???
My nieces are so innocent compared to the girls in their dance class. My sister-in-law raises them like little girls, not like the little sluts-to-be that they unfortunately are surrounded by here.
...I will write more later, I'm typing this from my crackberry phone.

Speaking of kids, my youngest sister cracked me up with her NEW system on handling her 1st Grader daughter during Homework time regarding tantrums. My sister told my niece that this year was NOT going to be like last year. Tantrums were NOT going to be tolerated. So, my sister made some Smiley Faces and some Sad Faces on some Construction Paper. If my niece gets 3 Tantrum Warnings in an afternoon, she gets a Sad Face. If she doesn't get 3 Tantrum Warnings, she gets a Smiley Face. If by Thursday afternoon my niece has more Sad Faces than Smiley Faces ... she will be punished for her Tantrums, by being sent to school on Friday IN her School Uniform. Fridays are supposed to be Free Dress Day and my niece loves to dress in stuff that is NOT her School Uniform.
My niece apparently even attempted to pull one over on my sister. She supposedly went, "Mom, my teacher doesn't like us going in our Uniforms to school on Friday." My sister told her, "I'm your Mom and I can send you to school any way I want to. And if you throw tantrums, you're going to school in your uniform on Friday." And my niece absolutely HATES to wear her uniform, especially on Fridays because VERY few students wear their uniforms on Fridays. And those who DO go in their uniforms on Fridays, it is universally known that it was either because they didn't do their schoolwork ... or because they must have misbehaved at home.
