General Chat

lol blue

good idea

Next Time,
Give her the shirt and sewing box,then give her the option................
sew it on or buy a new one out of your pocket money.
then sit back and see what she chooses!

Elisabeth

all my kids do there own ironing hun lol

I aggree with everything said guys

button is now back on shirt and in ironing pile

but i did make me think about how kids dont value things today lol

yeah we will be having a wee chat later lol

Steve,

If she is a teenager, perhaps she should be persuaded to do her own ironing and learn to sew on buttons. All teenagers should be encouraged to contribute to the smooth running of the household.

All that is said slightly tongue in cheek - I always did the ironing for my teenagers, and long after if I was honest.

STEVE

DONT EVEN CONSIDER4 IT

GIVE HER
THE NEEDLE AN THREAD

*walks on thread and slaps Steve round the head

Sew a button on and make K watch you so she learns how to do it for next time lol

go buy a new shirt indeed!

sew baby sew

I'm with You, Steve.........
unless they are taught, they have no idea of values.....

(Ideally, It would be good If she were to care for her clothes herself and sew her own buttons on!)

Bob

sew the button on, uless your money grows on trees, also dont let her think that money is so easily ready, she may be in for a shock when she grows up
there you are mate my bit for the day now i need to rest my brain cell x

Good God Man - sew the button on!!!

Then you'll have saved enough for a couple of extra pints down the pub tonight :-)

Todays burning questions are







I just washed and dried the teenage daughters white school shirts
while folding them i noticed a button had come off, so i find said button

Get the sowing box out

As i am about to sew the button back on, daughter comes into the room

askes what am i doing

me: a button has come off your shirt so i am going to sow it back on

her: Why?

me: well unless you want to show a bit to much clevage at school it might be a good idea dont you think?

her: why bother, just buy some new ones!!!!

me: what??

her: well its not like they cost a lot is it............she then walks out of the room

So the questions are

1/ Do i jump in the car, drive into town, spend ages finding somewhere to park then go and whatever money on a pack
of new school shirts, drive home, or sew a button on lol

2/ Has this "throw away socity" we live in now gone totaly mad

Your oppinions on this one lol
