To lie to kids!

There was loud banging at my front door so I went to see who it was; it was the kids that lived next door, they wanted to come over and play. (Mind you Im a 21 yr old single college student; no kids living here not sure why they want to come over) I lied and said I was leaving....they asked where I was going and I said UMMMM the grocery store!! They are probably watching out their window to see me pull away. LOL

    Strange...where are their parents? Letting kids knock on stranger's doors :huh: Maybe the parents put them up to it because they need a babysitter?

    When I was 25 I had a couple of kids that lived next door. I think they were 6 and 8. Of course, I was married and a teacher so the situation was very different. They've both grown up and I've been to both of their weddings and the girl is pregnant with her second child. Sometimes I feel like I raised both of them because they were always at my house.

    I lie to my unborn seeds all the time. Thinking that they're going to fertilize an egg, just to see the outside world before they hit something else. It's hilarious.

    I don't think it was bad, but I wonder why you felt the need to lie? They are children after all, and not YOURS, so could you not just say "I'm sorry, I don't have time/want to play?" But then again I'm not a fan of children I'm not related to, and even those are iffy.

    Won't you be surprised when they fertilize the dog.

    This makes me worry about where the parents are and how those kids are being raised. I went for a walk once and a little girl started following me and trying to get me to pick her up. I ended up having to turn around and bring her home... lucky it was me and not some creepy pedo or something.
