This crap irritates me

I saw my 10 year old niece posting on facebook a couple minutes ago and I asked her, "Aren't you supposed to be in school?" She said, "Ya but mama didn't wake up."

This seems to happen quite a bit with her. This means all 3 of the kids probably didn't go to school today. I think I should say something about it but we live in different states so I don't know exactly what goes on at their house.

She (my sister/their mother) complains one of them doesn't do well in school, well dammit get off your ass and take them to school and maybe she wouldn't have issues!

That's what I was going to say. There is no way my 9 year old (10 next month) will get on FB anytime soon.

LIAG, you should say something to your sister. Tell her to quit being such a lazy ass and the kids to school. She can always nap while they're gone.

I know that was what I thought too. I don't really know how to explain how my sister is and be nice about it. She's had a hard life, she & her husband used to be on drugs pretty bad and lost her kids a few times. But now they are sober, have the kids back and is trying to have a better life for their family. But sometimes she doesn't do so well at it. She works 3 jobs. I try to not be so judgmental seeing that she is trying, but it's hard with the history she has.

But I think them not going to school is unacceptable. And I agree with the 10 yr old on fb thing.

My mom didn't get up either. I got myself up and dressed, then I took the damn bus to school.

Barefoot. In the snow.

My parents didn't get up either. I got myself up and dressed, then I took the damn bus to school.

both ways?

I did the same thing growing up. But parents are still responsible for making sure they get to school. I know mine would bust my ass if I didn't go. Unless I was sick or on my deathbed I went.

lol, I took my kid to school this morning and she was on time. There's not a bus that goes to her school.

My av refers to my time spent on here. lol

Well, now I feel like poo.

My niece just told me they all, the whole household is sick and running fevers. But said she was feeling a little better after her mom gave them all medicine. This is why they aren't at school. I can only assume my sister decided to not even attempt to get them up this morning because she knew it would be a waste of time. I have done been there before.

Now that I think about it I remember my sis telling me they were sick.

I think I will call her in a little while anyway just to check on them.

I hate FB. My dippoo 17 year old niece posts every single detail of her life on there. On the flip side though, her dumb ass was posting on an MTV chat forum, I think it's called something like Single Teen Moms, and it was linked to FB, so it was posting all her comments back to her FB account. She said in her statements that she had an 8 month old and the father had just left her for another women, neither of which is true. So I posted under those on my wife's FB account "This is your uncle and I know you aren't claiming my kid as yours and lying to the whole damn world about it". About 10 people responded laughing at her and she removed the links like 30 mins later. I guess FB can be entertaining when stupid teenagers are lying about things and not realizing it's getting posted back on FB for everyone to see.
