I should not have given up swearing for Lent.
Swearing would have been a reasonable response to a 6yr old who felt free to throw books and call her mother Stupo (that was a Marx brother wasn't it?)
It is reported tearfully that throwing books and calling your mother Stupo was not worth losing your electronics, sitting in your room all afternoon and going to bed early.
Proud mommy moments (and I think I deserve some after the above incident) 9yo ds got a certificate and 12yo dd gets to go eat donuts and juice for being kind. Dd volunteered to be in the group of special ed kids for a group project. I'm not sure what 9yo did, he won't say.

LOL at the "Stupo", I know I shouldn't laugh, but it is good to know I am not the only one with kids like that ;-)
My son wanted to give up schoolwork for Lent, and another said they'd sacrifice vegetables.
