I'm at the point I'd pay people to go to these classes. I must be a bad mother. My shrink says if I liked - submitted by implodinghead on 06/29/2007
My shrink says if I liked gymboree and all the music things I do with my 4 kids I wouldn't be normal. She says it's normal to feel like your head is imploding. Terrific. I bring ear plugs. I feel - submitted by jennk on 06/30/2007
I bring ear plugs. I feel guilty but it's the only way i can get through some of the classes! The worst are the percussion - submitted by Anonymous on 06/30/2007
The worst are the percussion ones. They bang on drums for an hour and you want to pull your hair out. LOL My son lead a music for tots - submitted by vacationer on 06/30/2007
My son lead a music for tots class. He said the mothers and few dads loved it. I wanted to tell him they're great actors but didn't have the heart I wish more of the moms kept - submitted by amry on 06/30/2007
I wish more of the moms kept their kids under control. I'm ok with the bad music but when the kids are jumping all over me and everyone and not paying attention, then I feel the parents should show some responsibility. I say, lighten up! If you - submitted by Anonymous on 06/30/2007
I say, lighten up! If you don't like it don't go or find a way to like it better. Share joy with your kids. The gym classes are better - submitted by phillygurl on 06/30/2007
The gym classes are better than music. With gym they can run around and climb and they don't have to sit and listen. 2 year olds should be wild, you don't want to stifle them. But I agree sometimes the music and stuff they do drive me nutty. My worst are play groups - submitted by kally on 06/30/2007
My worst are play groups where you have to hang around with the other parents. If the parents are you're type you're dying. My daughter has friends whose parents I want to strangle. Give me Gymboree any day. Me too. I hate having to be - submitted by othereke on 06/30/2007
Me too. I hate having to be nice to parents I don't like. We've got enough obligations. I'll drop Katie off and run to my car as fast as I can. I'm not the most popular in the PTA but I can live with it. I am totally with these - submitted by lovemykidsbut on 07/01/2007
I am totally with these women. Exploding heads any moment! I stopped taking my daughter - submitted by goodmom on 07/02/2007
I stopped taking my daughter to Music Together because I couldn't take it any more. I feel terrible, I told her the class was over. But I didin't have enough meds to get throught it! Took my son to a YMCA - submitted by Anonymous on 07/02/2007
Took my son to a YMCA drumming class. Even the teacher looked like she was losing her mind! |
