LYC: Parenting is hard and today is a frustrating day.

Posted by TWuG Apr 22 '11, 10:35

Is 10 too young to be expected to freaking remember to feed and water the pet rabbit WHEN SPECIFICALLY ASKED TO DO SO NOT AN HOUR BEFORE?

Is 10 too young to be expected NOT TO LIE when asked if you've taken care of the rabbit yet?

I swear to fucking God I have had this discussion at least once per week for the past 4 years. You'd think after a minimum of 200 times it would sink the fuck in and you'd take care of the goddamned rabbit that you fucking begged for.
