Punishment

I just found this Obama article linked on another blog.

Highlight:

“Look, I’ve got two daughters, 9 years old and 6 years old,” Obama said. “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”

Funny -- if my daughter makes a mistake, I WANT the little whore to be punished with a baby, dammit. Nothing like pregnancy and childbirth to put the fear of sex back into her -- as I know all too well myself! Heh.

Daughter is currently grounded, because of her poor decision to stop handing in homework. Her teacher showed me her record -- she had more zero's than the Japanese Imperial Army Air Force (and why her teacher didn't mention this to me until now is another excellent question, but it's one I'm not going to bother asking this close to the end of the school year).

So now it's no computer, no meetings with friends, no phone calls, no DVDs, no ipod, no nothing, no fun -- she can go to school, and if she feels like singing in the choir, she can go to mass.

Today I got home from work, and found her taking a nap.

"NO NAPS!" I screeched. "Naps are a PRIVILEGE, not a RIGHT, and you haven't earned them! Go outside and do yard work, NOW!"

No, I didn't really say that. I let her sleep.

But hell, I have no time to take naps -- why does she get to take naps? It's not fair......

I want to be punished with a nap.

I wonder what I would have to do to get someone to punish me by declaring I was not allowed to do anything except nap. Whatever it is I will so do it.

sigh. NO NAPS!!! Unless you are the mama. Going thru the same thing. Mine won't make the effort to do the homework or even go to the extra credit movie after school which I think is ridiculous to give to these students, but it's there anyway..

"...I WANT the little whore to be punished with a baby, dammit!" BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

And yeah, I would definitely ask the teacher about that. If Daughter missed that much, wasn't there a point a couple months ago when the teacher looked in her grade book and thought, "Huh. If this continues, she's going to fail." and at that point, shouldn't it have crossed her mind to tip you off?
