"Going with"
FOUND by Justin
in between Connecticut or Pennsylvania
I found this on the outskirts of a rest stop while driving with a friend from Milford, CT, to Doylestown, PA. I was walking Chico (the friend's dog) and stumbled upon this scrap of paper blending in with the grass.

Trust No One!
Trust me on this guys.
Even though "dating" and "going steady" now starts at about 11....no friends! No sleepovers! You now belong Exclusively to your "steady!" No outside activities should be necessary because you have meeee!
Of course during the sleepovers is when girls get together and talk over their boyfriends and discover the truth about how that "nice young man" has behaved with other girls. And we couldn't have that, now could we!
Yeah right. On the other side of this paper it should say "how to ruin your dating relationship."
baby, you completely missed the point of this note.
baby, it reads more like a parent's note to self regarding their child. once they say they are dating someone, the parent shouldn't allow them to spend the night elsewhere because kids are naturally deceptive and conniving and sex hounds and obviously going to go have sex with the boyfriend or girlfriend.
or so it reads to me...
@ Mom interrupted ... so, if I'm to trust no one, yet you say I should trust you on this one - - - wait, is this one of those logic puzzles?
The more you try to prevent them from having sex, the more exciting it will be for them to find ways to do it in spite of.
So Terrie, should we encourage our teenage kids to have sex?
i like the "any" added
it's just so funny that a parent would write this (important issue!) on a scrap piece of paper....to remind themselves in years to come.
Thanks for setting me straight, there, Kelly. Your interpretation is much more sensible.
No, Feeling, you should do whatever you feel is best for yours.
I, personally, talk to mine and educate them and do my best to encourage them to make smart decisions.
"To Mark at later date..."
Don't you think Mark deserves to know this now, rather than later?
Such beautiful calligraphy on a scrap of paper.
I have to agree with Librarian. If it's important, tell Mark now. If it's really important and Mark is 3 years old, I'm sure you'll remember it when he starts to date.
@Librarian: My apologies... It wasn't fair to do this to you on a Monday.
@orinoco: I noticed that too. I'm feeling inspired to pay more attention to my own handwriting. Good handwriting is a lost art.
Isn't the writer marking it down now? Does she have some parenting journal that she will mark it in when she gets home?
my parents used to call it "going nowhere with ____" because all it really meant was you passed notes in school ...
Shallow grave.
@ Terry
Then we are in agreement. Your first post seemed contrary to your second.
Thank you, Captain Obvious McDuh!
This is simply common sense. WTF needs to write themselves a note about it?
Jeez Louise!!
I think it is cool that the mom wrote "boy/girl", at least she is letting Mark be gay if he wants to.
I love this! I had a best friend who was a boy from about 4 years old until about 12..I remember when those sleepovers got a little..awkward. Haha so does my mom!
Ah, yes, the old parental cock-block: you realize that your kids will hate you forever for this, right? And that you can't follow them around forever? Is it worth it? Also, you might be creating the next Norman Bates/Ted Bundy.
If I had gotten laid even once in high school, then maybe I wouldn't want to beat up and/or psychologically cripple pretty much every woman I meet these days. I have an inordinate amount of self-control, however. I never let on what I'm thinking. I just treat them politely, use them for sex, make crystal clear my ambivalence at the prospect of anything more than casual sex, and send them on their merry way. That's the icy cold pimp hand in action.
However, that being said, co-ed sleepovers are creepy.
Get some help, GoKart.
I saw this as a woman giving this to her friend, Mark, who has preteen kids. (Or a sister giving it to her brother). She is warning him to not allow sleepovers once his kids are dating, as there is the possibility of sneaking out to 'hook up.'
I should know....I was once a 'Sneaker-Outer.'
Now I'm a mom of teens, worrying about possible Sneaker-Outers. =)
And Go Kart, yes, please get help.
I think it was a girl (from the handwriting) on her way to her boyfriend's house - after telling her mom she was going to a sleepover - writing a funny note about not getting fooled by that trick when she is a mom in the future. Hmm?
Funny. I saw it as this scenario: Mom has come to some agreement with her daughter (12, 13 maybe?)about dating ages and when she can finally do that. Maybe even drew up some agreement with her daughter. Later she realizes there's a loophole she forgot to close here and makes a note to herself to add that to the dating age contract with her daughter when she gets home. I like my story.
