SHOULD GRANDMAS SUPPORT THIS LATEST FAD?
All right, grandmas everywhere, I will admit that the craze of "attitude glasses" is a controversial subject. Parents have enough behavioral problems starting in those pre-teen years and even younger. There is nothing more distasteful as kids rolling their eyes when asked to make their beds, help pick up the dishes, or get off the couch. Hey, but look at that adorable little boy Carter David and those monstrous attitude glasses. Ain't he jus plentifully adorable? And does he look like the kind of kid who would punch ya in the tummy if you offered him your freshly baked chocolate chip cookies??? NOT!
Because I am a woman of truth, this is the place in the story where I must make a personal confession to all my readers. Go fetch your reading spectacles, sit down and brace yourself. I BOUGHT LAUREN A PAIR OF "ATTITUDE" GLASSES FOR CHRISTMAS. I EVEN BOUGHT A PAIR FOR MYSELF!
Here's my take on all of this. If kids ask for attitude glasses for Christmas, give them a pair to "play" having an attitude. They will see "attitudes" as something that exists in their play world, not real life. Then as they grow older, they will find having an attitude simply boring having already practiced "attitudes" in their play experience, and they will leave bad attitudes behind to discover other more interesting endeavors!.
Whew! After getting all the "yucky stuff" out, Lauren and the wild 'n crazy grandma were the sweetest perdiest litt'l things you ever done seen. We both agreed that we would never want to be like this in real life!!! (Just ask Lauren's mommy!)
