Thirsty Thursday

I had an idea this morning while I was vacuuming. I enjoy vacuuming, it's like white noise for me and instant gratification when I can witness the removal of dust and dog hair. Such a thing may already exist, but mine would certainly be better. The idea is for a drinking game for parents..name TBD.

examples:
-drink once if you have ever put your kid to bed early b/c you felt like it
-go to jail for 2 turns if you have ever left your child in the car while you ran in to do something
-advance to 3rd grade and take a drink if you have skipped pages of a book to make it shorter
-loose a turn if you have let your child wear seasonably inappropriate clothing to avoid a tantrum
-pass out a drink if you have ever ignored a bad behavior to take a quick picture before 'disciplining' because it's actually pretty funny
- group drink if anyone has ever removed, or thought of removing a battery from a toy and saying it was broken

for our friends without children they would have to do what the question said if they have ever judged someone for doing the stated.

Now, I'm not sure what is worse, that I've already done the above list in just 19 mo (disclaimer -it was dead cold winter in Maine, the car was locked and running and there was no pay at the pump and i could see her the whole time and no one was around) OR that I'm thinking of drinking games at 9:15 am.
