I am a failure.
I have failed to teach my 13 yr old daughter that girls do not pass gas in public.
Not only have i failed to teach her humility, but she seems to have no shame whatsoever.
She actually thinks this is something funny!!!!
Take yesterday for example, we were in the car -- my 3 kids and I. It was morning and we'd just stopped for breakfast at the bagel shop on the way to my brother's store. The girls were going to work, and my son and I were going to pick out decorations for our fish tank....rocks and plants and such.
About half way there i hear her devilish laughter followed by 'oh no oh no...'
It would be one thing if she could pass gas without stinking us out. But nooooooo, not only does she let them rip, she makes it so we have to put all the windows down just to get a breath of fresh air!
It was 26 degrees outside!
My oldest daughter immediately starts in,
"you're never going to have a boyfriend....ever!"
Then my son,
"oh my God, you must have something wrong with you! That is soooooo bad!"
And all the while she is roaring with laughter and letting more bad air fly....until all of us are begging her to please STOP!
And as if that weren't bad enough, when we finally get to the store and she see's my brother, she brags about how she 'farted all the way down the highway'....
I've told her and told her that "young ladies don't pass gas in public".
I mean she looks like a nice young lady, but somewhere along the line, I've certainly failed....
