Hellcat Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Martin. We like the forum but life is out there to be lived. Tomorrow go out and do some living, and leave the forum for the saddo's like me with 3 kids and *** all better to do. You have teenager things to be doing.... go and do them!

Martin B Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 I'll be out tommorow, work in morning then cousins in afternoon. I'll be back here at night though. May I ask what teenage things are? I suppose many people would say hoodie wearing, vandalism, bad behaviour, anti-social, boozing, smoking, high on drugs. I don't want to do any of them!

Guest Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 (edited) Martin, here are some things you could consider: shopping, cinema, bowling, swimming, cycling, skating, chatting, football, cricket, tennis, walking. I'm sure you can think of many more things that won't disappoint your parents! Edited April 22, 2006 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose many people would say hoodie wearing, vandalism, bad behaviour, anti-social, boozing, smoking, high on drugs. I don't want to do any of them! How about going out with your mates, kicking a ball around in a park, sitting on the grass having a chat about nothing, going to get some chips, going to a skate park, swimming, sitting in a mates room listening to music and telling each other how cool you are, gathering together and chilling out for no reason? Doesnt all have to be about bad things. Down in the village we have our own 'gang', the politest group of young people. they look intimidating but they are fine, just a big group of kids having fun.

Sheilaz Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 No, being a teenager should mean having fun, as long as you do what your parents say, before you become an adult with resposibilities such as, er, telling your children what to do! Anyway, the forum is fun, I find it really relaxing. Now, back to the things children say..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 I play football all the time, go play golf and go fishing sometimes, go on sleepovers all of the time!!!!! I'm just on here a lot aswell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken on a mission Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 I get in here a lot too but I will just say that being on here means that I am not just sat in front of the telly like most of the population. I know where I'd rather be (out with the chooks but the spoil sports have gone to bed ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todays "youth" (including young at heart) is very energetic and multi-tasks stying up all hours to do stuff and go on the forum. I am in awe Martin, I'm more of a saddo though!

Linda Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Martin does seem to be unusual in that he is a teenager with stamina! He just seems to keep going. A lot of teenagers I've come across seem to have no 'go' in them whatsoever!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken on a mission Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 My 3 1/2 year old said this out of the blue today: 'When I'm dead I'll give you some bread.' So I said, 'How can you do that Esme? Where will you be when you are dead?' 'I'll be in a cave.' I can only think that she has a bit of a mixed up understanding of the Easter story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Managing Director Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 well my Chief Assistant left me speechless with this, when asked if headless Barbie (courtesy of Flint, beheadings take approximately 20 seconds ) could be thrown away she replied, 'No I need her for when I play Anne Boleyn Barbie!!' when a third Barbie was found similarly headless the response was, oh good now I've got Lady Jane Gray too this from the child who found The Sound of Music scary and had to leave the cinema after 20 minutes of Finding Nemo. when I asked Murdo what the dog was doing later the reply came 'it's Ok he's just working on Boxing Helena Barbie' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
