With two girls AND the oldest rapidly approaching 13 (and middle school this fall GAH) I can empathize. I took her shopping at Justice for shorts for our Disney trip and all the shorts were what I not so lovingly refer to as hoochie mama shorts!

Sorry, but yes you are getting old. And I’m afraid you’ve become your parents which means you’ll think kids are dressing worse these days than they did when we were kids whether it’s true or not. Having said that, it IS true and that’s why I’m so glad I have a boy. Instead of trying to be sexy, boys these days just let their pants hang down to their knees and let the world see their boxers. So while girls are getting all sexed up, boys are just getting uglier. Sorry.
Good luck with the whole house arrest thing!

Bad news: yup, you’re getting old. But that doesn’t change the fact that if I had a daughter I’d lock her up until 30 as well. I have a boy (the reason you want to lock your daughter up until she’s 30), so I just look at female young people with a mixture of disbelief and total relief that they aren’t mine.

Sorry, man. Oh, and Home Depot has padlocks on sale if you’re interested…

Umm, dude, you are getting old. I bet all the young men thought they looked beautiful. If you were 25….

I love this post and I totally agree! Fortunately, I have boys…but I already know which girls I’m keeping them away from….The trashy look starts early. Why do we sexualize youngsters? It is sick.

Comment on Taking back the vacation part of a vacation by ThePeachy1

Excellent Point. With my older 2, I had endless energy and every road trip was and adventure. Now older, slower and easier to get worn out I chose my vacations more wisely. Never been to the Poconos. You make a good case for checking it out.

JayMonster,

I loved your post and want to thank you again so much for coming up to me and introducing yourself after the keynote. It was great to meet the man responsible for so many of my Friday smiles.

And it takes a special guy to go to BlogHer!
