If you think about your family tree or even your friend’s family – someone is always screwed up. I don’t care who you are – no one has a completely normal family. Look at the Kennedys for goodness sake! They had one child that became a president, and they were all mostly screwed up. All I’m saying is that one way or another; one of my kids has a good chance of being totally fucked up.
As I watch them play at age two and 6 months – I wonder which one it will be? Now, I’m hoping were talking about a slight learning difficulty like being a weak reader, or even a bad attitude. I can handle that (I think). I’m just hoping they dodge the shotgun sized bullet of ADD, OCD, and the slew of other conditions that are so long they need to be abbreviated.
Unfortunately, we have problems on both sides of the family. My husband’s side… a mess. My side, let’s just say I’m the normal one, which should give you a little bit of an indication as to what I’m dealing with.
So, which one will it be? I’m guessing my oldest only because he gets all the attention. His schedule as an infant was always on the dot. He’s also a bit stubborn (maybe it’s the terrible twos) and loves attention. He’s also going to be extremely handsome like his father and already tries to kiss every girl that he encounters. My 6 month old is literally happy all the time, to the point where I thought MAYBE there was something wrong with him. He’s also is on a very loose schedule, which makes him a little more laid back. He’s the one where I’m always saying “Wait one minute baby, I’ll be right there.”
So – which one of my kids is going to be totally fucked? Fingers crossed it’s neither but like I said – everyone’s crazy – so only time will tell.
