Welcome to My Jaded Reality

My Kids Intro


Well, I'm sure you saw around here somewhere that I have 5 kids, and you've got a few of the typical comments running through that head of yours. I guarantee you I've heard them all before, and I get so incredibly tired of covering the same ground, so to hell with it, I'm going to address them before you have a chance to even ask.



Wow .. you have five kids?!? (typical comment) Yes, I have five kids.
(what I'm thinking) 1...2...3...4...5... well look at that, you can count.

Do you REALLY have five kids?!? (typical comment) Yes, really.
(what I'm thinking) No idiot, I make this stuff up to mess with your little head.

Are those all yours? (typical comment) Yup, all mine.
(what I'm thinking) No ... the little one is mine. The brown haired one there was mail order, the tall one I got for an excellent price on Ebay. That one we found down the street ... and I really don't know where that one came from.

That must be a handful! (typical comment) Not really, they're good kids.
(what I'm thinking) Holy hell, did you people get a handbook on the most unoriginal comments you could make? As if I've never heard that before.


The simple fact of the matter is, yes I have five children. I happen to enjoy children. If I could have afforded it, I would have kept going. As for why I would have five, that's really none of your business. As for why I'd have five in this kind of economy, again, that's none of your business, and I find it completely rude that you'd even ask a question like that. (and you would NOT believe how many people do) As for the fact that I'm young, so what? I had my oldest when I was 18, and granted that's young. But first of all, having a child makes you grow up awful fast. Second, I'd been living on my own for two years already, with his father, before I had him. Third, 18 is adult here.

While you're sitting there thinking that it's too young, I'm sitting here thinking that while you're desperately waiting for your kids to hit graduation so you can get some peace and quiet, I'm thinking about meeting my great grandchildren some day, because I'm young enough to live to meet them.

Then you get the other people that think that because you're young, you can't possibly be a responsible parent. Correction .. my kids lack for nothing. And, not to brag, lol .. but out of all the children I know, mine are the most well behaved and best mannered, and this isn't my comments, these are comments from all of the people I know, who continually threaten to kidnap my kids because they're such sweethearts. I must have done something right with them. I honestly think part of it was that I was young enough to understand them a little more, I remember quite vividly how it felt to be that age. Not to mention a lot of the experiences I went through, I'm able to guide my kids in other directions. My children are not just my kids, they are my friends, and they'd tell you that just as quickly. I really do have five awesome kids ... as long as we're being iffy about my adorably sweet 10 year old who has the essence of Satan lurking beneath those sparkling eyes.
