Lesson Learned

Alison learned a valuable lesson Tuesday night. Unfortunately for her, it was a hard lesson. She came home from school and was stomping around the house, yelling at Kris, and arguing with Sarah, just generally being a terror. The result is that she had to stay home from dance class. She thought we were just kidding. She got herself cleaned up, put on her dance clothes, and Kris and I asked her where she thought she was going. For the next two hours she whined and cried and whimpered around the house. Then I told her that she could have her choice of not going to dance or not going to her friend's birthday party this weekend. When faced with that, she chose dance.

Hopefully she has learned what happens when she acts all crabby and disrespectful to her parents. She was expecting us to cave, but I think she has learned something. We'll see what happens next time around if we have another incident.
