My 7-year-old child was invited to a B-day party for a little boy that was also turning 7.  Anyway, when it came to opening gifts, he got Wii game toys, the different controlers and games.  I did not even know the kid had a Wii game, but it seemed like everyone else did.   I bought him a race track and a game of Go Fish.  The race track got an "I already have that" comment and the Go Fish was "what the heck." He did not say that but he kinid of looked at it like that and put it back in the bag.  I wondered if he even knows what Go Fish is.  The only games my child has are board games, card games, those free games you can play on the computer and 1 game that plugs into the TV.  It looks like a joystick and it has 3 games in it.  These games have helped her in her reading because she has to read directions.  She can identify a lot of the ocean fish. 

I was treated like an outcast at the party anyway.  I tried to join in conversations with the other mothers, I would get ignored or very short answers, some would actually walk away.  Then one mother actually turned her back to me to talk to another so I would just listen.  They were talking about building houses, they have lots of land blah blah blah.   They were giving each other advice on what to do with it all.   When the conversation turned to how their kids are struggling in this subject or that that is when I got up and left because they toned their conversation down and then shut it off completely when then thought I was listening, so I thought that was my cue  just leave so they can vent to one another about it.  It was more about the teachers expecting too much blah blah blah.   I have known some of these mothers or their spouses since we were little kids.  They really treated me like trash back then.  I thought that now that we were in our 30s, have not had much contact with each other since HS until now that our kids are going to school together, it would be like water under the bridge.  Guess not.  The families  were wealthier than we were (just about every family was wealthier than we were back then lol) but I know they can't have it that good.  Well, actually I don't know what is in their bank account or care.  The only thing I did have over them is my kid is not struggling in school.  She is making straight As on all her subjects. 

The only reason I went was because my 7-year-old and the 7-year-old boy are really good friends and I thought that maybe me and the other mother could find something in common.  At school, they are in separable so I really wanted dd to go to help him celebrate his special day.  I could not help but notice that dd played with him more and the others were playing among themselves.  I do worry if that tee's the parents off.  I worry that they are going to discriminate against DD because I was a poor little nobody back in school and they were popular.   I worry that they are going to start refusing to let the little boy play with dd and it will break her heart and hate me.  I take baths, I practice clean living, always have, no drugs, alcohol.  I don't even smoke cigarettes.  I pay my bills.  Everything I own, I got honestly, paid for it myself.  Of course, it isn't as fancy as theirs.  H is not from here, he went to school elsewhere.  I used to worry about that too back when we 1st started dating..Him finding out I was an outcast, dork or whatever and hate me.  Now I worry that my child is going find out and resent me. 

I am in charge of my son's pre-k parties and have yet to come up with a great game for his Christmas party tomorrow, and I do not have a clue what we can play! Any suggestions or links on line that I can look for? Want something simple and with minimal work and or props.

For the last five years there has been a ban of video games in my house.  My husband and my son were turning into flippin zombies.  We started going on hikes in the mountains instead and now participate in extracurricular activities at the high school and volunteer.

TV has not been banned yet, as I think there would be a mutiny....

Besides the word association, there are other fun things to do which we can post on breaks for typing.  Before, we had fun on the gab board but it polluted (I admit) the ability of people to read regular gabbing.  Do you think you could consider making a board for word games, and other things like that? It would be appreciated. Thanks for your consideration.

Played a game called White Elephant before and the group loved. Want something really simple to entertain my lovely guests for that day. We are all over the 50 year range so nothing too involved, heck we could not remember! Thanks!

"When I'm good I'm very good, but when I'm bad I'm better!"  

Here's your clue: In the same movie another line was used..."Why don't you come up and see me sometime?"   Cat

Does anyone have appropriate valentine games for sixth graders??  This is a tough age to impress; any help would be greately appreciated!!!

constantly and have for a decade. They always have to have the latest game.  She has 4 kids - 3 are obese and one is overweight. 

We don't have one because I didn't want to fight about it constantly.  I'm so glad I stuck to my guns.  I know my husband has wanted to get one.  I have 3 kids and they are all very slender.  They aren't athletes but they aren't couch potatoes either. 

It's a health issue to me, and also a mental health issue, because they are addictive.

My daughter is going to be 10 at the end of September and wants a luau themed party. I have decorations, a pinata, party favors and cake, but need something for games. I was thinking about pin the coconut on the palm tree! But not so sure I can draw a decent enough tree and coconuts!! LOL.

Any ideas for games?? Thanks. Also, cant be anything to wild as the party is being held in a party room at Pizza Hut.

no sugar made me feel 20 years younger.  sounds strange but it is true. 

if you are presently on sugar, it will be hard for a few days, but really worth it.  i personally cannot do a gradual weaning off sugar but need to go cold turkey.  same with white foods - white bread, white flour, white crackers, white whatever.  i eat protein, protein, protein when getting off sugar.  fish, skinless boneless chicken, every 1/2 hour if you are hungry. after a day or two, you will not want sugar or white foods.  you will be satisfied with lean protein - the less beef the better - and vegetables.  and no milk or milk products.  sounds strange, i know, but i would be willing to bet my next paycheck that you would feel 150% better.  eat like that for awhile and then start adding back in the foods you cut out.  one at a time.  gradually.  maybe one food every 2 weeks.  and notice how you feel.  your body will tell you what it does not like.  yogurt was the first food i added back in and right away my nose started running, clear drainage, knew that i could not handle yogurt.

that is just what i have done and what works for me.  not medical advice at all.  just my experience.
