Anyone ever experience one?

I did this morning when my daughter started her first day at High School.


.....bring on the meds!!! :P

Seemed like only yesterday I was crying when she started kindergarten. Tears again this morning.....only I really had to hide them this time.

My son has a dyed red Mohawk and contact lenses that make his eyes white. He looks like a wolf.

Do I need meds? Nahhhhh!!!!

I'm guessing that your anxiety attack would never end should your daughter start dating Tarlam!'s son.

Try viewing it as a new chapter in your daughter's life. You think you know what will be revealed but there are surprises. Some of them are good some of them not so good.

Does that help you put away the Kleenix? :)

Maybe it was all that marmade Aussie Jr ate when he was little.

from anybody else i would have guessed it was marmalade. but from you I figured it was more of that urban slang that you look up on the internet and use in the forum.

Hmmmm. I thought deciphering Mad's urban slang was the job of your lesbian friend?

Marmalade I'll eat.

Stay away from the Vegemite. It's an oozing brown fluid of cultured yeast favored by Aussies.

Some people say it causes children to cut their hair funny and wear appearance-changing contact lenses--but you shouldn't believe everything you hear.

Vegemite is crap. Marmite is the real thing. Vegemite is just a thing made by the Aussies because they couldn't take the stronger taste of Marmite. Wimps.

Americans are such pansys when it comes to eating marmite. I've given it to about 10 Americans, only 1 ever liked it and it was a 6 year-old. The rest spit it out or even gagged.

Are you kidding? That's triple dose of meds....lol I was crying when we were putting on her little white first communion dress years ago thinking to myself the next time I'd be helping her put on a white dress would be her wedding day. I stress about these things way in advance!! :?

How about starting with a kiss first? (as in dances, dates, prom) - before marrying her off....

I really used to like you, until this post. :lol:

Vegemite is the real stuff. Marmite tastes like ground ants.

And before you start calling Aussies wimps, you might wanna look at the ball sports we play. No helmuts in Rugby.

And, we have 20 million people, not 200 million like some nations. Compare our medal count to yours at the last Olympics and you'll find a lot of us aren't wimps after all.

But we all love Vegemite! :twisted:

My 3 year old kid keeps shitting in his diaper, and it’s really starting to raise my anxiety level too. Next Thursday pre-school starts, and I already pre-paid a couple grand for the year……..but they won’t take him if he shits in his diaper.

I make him run “penalty laps” around the house. Well, I guess at least he doesn’t look like a wolf.

My grandmother always said, “Big kids, big problems. Little kids, little problems.”

I remember an amusing story from my days living in Wisconsin. Our neighbors had a bright, precocious, three year old who just wouldn't toilet train.

One day, the kid noticed his older brother was suiting up for hockey practice. He intently watched his brother was put on his athletic supporter with an attached protective cup.

He asked his Mom, "Can I get one of those too?" His Mom answered, "Only big boys who use the toilet instead of their pants get to wear one of those."

The three year old bargained, "If I poop and pee in the toilet instead of my pants, will you buy me one of those?" She agreed.

Within two days the kid was completely potty-trained! On the third day, he was proudly strutting around the neighborhood wearing his new athletic supporter and cup over the outside of his pants! :lol:

Did I miss something? I always wore mine on the outside. Perhaps that explains the jeering all those years in IM football.

My kid had a new truck in the bathroom on a shelf that he could only have if he used the toilet. It would have worked a lot faster if he liked trucks more...

Vegemite is weak. Admit it, Tar, you can't take Marmite. It's too strong for you.....

I would be lying if I said all the peer pressure in HS doesn't scare me, but she's got a good head on her shoulders. She's involved in sports and has 3 honors classes this year....she'll stay pretty busy.

Oh, I get it, 'hawk, we're a nation with wimpy tastebuds? Well, have you ever seen what the Aboriginal bush dwellers dine on when they go walkabout? :idea:

Marmite just tastes like crushed up and ground ants. I only know how to compare the two tastes, because of my affinity to Aboriginal Chefs and they have prepared and dined both.

So, if you want to eat English Bush Survival Rations, 'hawk, go ahead - we connoisseurs will continue to demonstrate clear cultural superiority by savouring the caviar of fermented yeast extracts - VEGEMITE!!!

One year my third grade class had a pen pal exchange with a third grade class in Melbourne, Australia. They sent us a jar of vegemite. I spread a little of the stuff on crackers for each of my students. Not one of them liked it! Frankly, I didn't like it either.

I guess you have to develop a taste for the stuff.

IMO, the Aussie kids got the better taste deal. We sent them a jar of Oregon's Willamette Valley marionberry jam. That spread is delicious!

It is true that you really have to grow up on Marmite/Vegemite. It's not exactly a fresh taste that you love from the first taste.

Vegemite is a lot more tasty if you include cilantro.

It is absolutely true. If you like the one, you hate the other. And if you start the habit too late, you hate both. That's about as accurate a generalization as you'll find on any subject.

OPF: Most people spread either veg or marm far too thickly and, even for me, that's just revolting. The trick is in remembering "less is more".
