Gratitude walks

By Anonymous - 30/11/2011 19:55 - United States

Today, it's my soon to be 12 year-old daughter's birthday. On my break at work I texted her how much I loved her and happy birthday. She replied with, "K, when will you be home? Mom won't let me open presents until you're here." Good to know I'm loved. FML

When I was 12, I had my first phone -_- but it was for practical reasons since the middle school was kind of far. Anyways but I was never spoiled, cause if I was my parents wouldn't have it (Asians :D ) I think it all depends on how well the parents raise their kids. Besides, why compare 2 different ages? :/ Ok, so back then the cool things were DS's and portable cd players and all that stuff. Now it's just cellphones, touch screen innovation and the best-new technology. It's just what we grow up with and around to. But I do agree, there's always that kid that takes things for granted. But as for OP, hope she'll grow up and show some respect because I don't think it's hit her yet how one day, there'll be a birthday where you won't even be there anymore :(

Awwww, she does love you, she's just got a one-track mind right now. I still talk to my daddy that way and I'm turning 23 next month. But I do it specifically to be obnoxious.

Not sure if I'm reading this right but you said your 12 year old daughter? And how can her mom not allow her to open the presents until you're there? Aren't you her mom?

If it was her birthday, how is she soon to be 12 years old? It's either she is or will be in a year bro.

I received my first phone when I was 8, for Christmas, and it was a pre-paid cheap old phone. I was raised in a chaotic home of drugs, rape, and abuse. Now, I'm 15, move out, and voted #1 role model at my school. Had I taken after my parents' bringing up, I'd be selling my body on the hectic streets of LA for drugs. Not all kids who get nice things at a young age grow up to be ungrateful people. I'm lucky to be alive, considering my disease I contracted as an embryo from my pregnant mother. Parenting doesn't matter as much as character and personality. Your daughter is a young girl, who is probably hitting puberty, and will be moody and a bit self centered. That's just the average girl. Don't take it too hard.
