MissScripture Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1334685953' post='2419555'] If you post something like that (practically bragging about what kind of weird "everything goes" environment you live in), you should not be surprised when people respond. It's weird. Each family operates differently. In my world, bedrooms are sacred space reserved for the people who sleep in them. I would not invite my teenage children onto my marriage bed to watch TV with me, especially not on the regular. [b]I know I am one of the few.[/b] [/quote] We were never allowed TVs in our rooms and my parents never had a TV in their room. Bedrooms were for sleeping and homework and playing. We would go into my parents room only to clean, take stuff in there if they asked us to (laundry, etc) or use their bathroom if the main bathroom was occupied. And when we were little we would go in there to snuggle with them in the morning. It definitely wasn't a hang out, so I don't think you're all that weird. And we all had to knock before going into any room with a closed door and usually even if it was open, just so that you don't scare the snot out of the person if they're not paying attention.

[/quote] Yeah, my parents didn't have a TV in their room until very recently. There are three TVs in the house now, and five people live there. I can't remember ever going into my parents room as a small child. I can see the snuggling thing, but after a certain age, my room is my sacred space; meet me on the couch.

[/quote] Yeah, the snuggling thing was pretty rare, because my mom was usually up before us, or we were in school, and had to get ready for school. I think it mainly happened after my little sister was born, so SHE was in there, and so the rest of us wanted to be near her. lol
MissyP89 Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 Soooo, when does this thread get to go Legendary? Because I think it's getting there.

I've always been a follower (my mom always said she felt like a mother duck with all her little babes following her wherever she went) so I get wanting to be near them. In fact, my mom and I have noticed on several occasions that even as an adult I tend to follow her around the house. If she notices and I don't, she'll purposely move from room to room until I *do* realize. Then we laugh.
Lil Red Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1334683242' post='2419510']You're too young to drink. You're too young to do a lot of things. [b]Not all of us are ancient[/b] and we still remember what it's like to be young and think you are grown up and know a lot more than you're being given credit for. Then ten years passes and you realize what a ridiculous nutcase you had been and you laugh about it. We get it: you're a young teen. You have a lot of growing up to do. But at some point, you have got to slow down and realize that you're not talking to a bunch of devil-worshiping savage adult beasts. [/quote] what's the bolded part supposed to mean, franny? [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1334683242' post='2419510']We deserve respect as your elders - especially as your elders who have proven for longer than you've been alive that we do love and respect our Church and form our consciences in the way She prescribes. We are not idiots, and we are not blind to as much as you might like to think. In short: Chill out, little one. (Yes, I am aware that little jabs like that probably turn you off from hearing anything else I'm saying. But seriously, stop taking yourself so seriously.) [/quote] i you. seriously.

Vincent Vega Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1334683242' post='2419510'] You sing? [/quote] Yes girl. All in a day's work for a sacred musician. But this test was related to music theory, wherein they coerce you to sing whether you do or not. [quote name='fides' Jack' timestamp='1334684594' post='2419529'] Wow - this could have been a good argument, but has been hijacked to the point that now I just read some of the comments and sometimes feel like smacking FP on the back of the head and sometimes want to defend him against the ravenous wolves out there. Seriously people - give him a break. Yes, he's misrepresenting an awful lot, but a lot of what he's saying is being taken out of context, and a lot of his jokes are being taken seriously. [/quote] This. I go back and forth between wanting to wail on FP and wanting to wail on the rest of you.

fides' Jack Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 Yes, I know that FP has a habit of saying some far-out things. And he's taken his share of flack for that. You know what would be funny, is if he was actually some 35-year-old who's doing this just for fun. If so, he must be getting some good laughs in. Still, patience and charity count the most when they're hardest to do. Some people here really need to practice both. And I, too, wish that I could prop kujo.

I am glad he is here, I am glad we have young people in the fold zealous for the faith, and I'm glad we have people here at Phatmass who will correct ANYONE when they are wrong (or just not exactly right, for whatever reason).
