Taylor smoking and other stuff.
Lastnight, Holly came up, we went to the store, and she said to me, "you need to talk to Taylor" and i asked her why, well, she told me something i already knew, Taylor is smoking, Taylor told me when we went to the park the other week, she asked me not to tell Holly, which i didnt..
Taylor was smoking in the bathroom at home, Mikey asked Holly what was burning, and Holly said it smelled like a cigarette, so, Mikey went back and caught Taylor..
So, we went up to the trailor, Taylor came out, and i said "i heard you were smoking" i didnt yell at her or anything, the only thing i said was " If your going to do it, you go somewhere your not going to get caught, you have to be smarter than that", well, her face lit up and she said "thanks Osh" and i looked at her and said "im not giving you permission to smoke, but, be smarter!"..
Mikey wasnt to happy that i told her that and by the look on Holly’s face she wasnt happy either, but, i cant honestly stand there and tell her not to smoke, when im standing there with a cigarette hanging out of my mouth! Taylor has seen me smoking for years, and her mom smokes, so, in her mind if we can do it, so can she..
I dont want her to smoke, but, shes an 11 year old girl (12 in July), shes going to smoke whether we want her to or not, she will get a cigarette somewhere..
We were all 11 and 12 at one time, we did things just because we were told not to, I know what Taylor’s thinking "im going to do it whether i want to or not just because your saying dont do it", and you can tell her that smoking causes cancer ect.., but, she doesnt care, all she sees is that her friends are doing it and she wants to be part of the crowd..plus, theres her mother and aunt both smoking, apparently not worried about the damages smoking can do..
I told Holly that maybe (hopefully) this is just a phase and she will stop and never end up smoking for the rest of her life..
Theres nothing i hate more when someone says to a child "dont do this, dont do that" and they are standing there doing it right in front of them! if its so bad then why are you doing it?
Ive had talks with Taylor about smoking, i told her not to, but, shes just a kid, shes not going to listen to me, shes got a rebellious side to her, we all did at that age, some of us still do.LOL
On to other news, Holly told me that Bill’s family (they live in the trailor accross from Holly) were having a cookout, Bill was there, so, Holly, being Holly, called Bob and invited him up for a bbq, now you know whats going to happen when you do something like that, and i know she knew what would happen!
Bill pulled in over at Holly’s house, Bob was in the van waiting for Holly, Bill was staring Bob down, giving him dirty looks, Bob was like what the F***, then Bill left, later that night, Bill was following Holly around town, about 12,1 at night, she went to Bob’s house and Bill sat out in the street waiting for her, so, Bob goes out and asks him what he is doing, Bill says "im just sitting here" bob says "at 12 and 1 in the morning, your just sitting here?" so, bob leaves, then he looks out and sees that bill is still thre, so, he goes out again, and tells him to get out of his car, which Bill does, then Bob grabbed him by the shirt, Bill took off calling the police, then they all sat at the police station for the rest of the night!!
The police dropped everything, they said theres no problem with Bill sitting where he was no matter the time, and I asked Holly"wouldnt that be considered stalking??" he was following her around town, but, the police said no, but, if they got any more complaints about Bill he was going to jail..
Bill is supposed to be married in July, but, yet, he is following my sister around (stalking her), and he was going up to her house telling her he loves her…
This man is the biggest jerk, he used to do those things to me, follow me around town ect.. I know how annoying he is, and he wont stop until he gets bored..
I feel so sorry for the woman he is going to marry, he will never change, he only wants what he cant have then when he gets it, he gets bored, the only reason he hasnt been bothering with me is because he knows if he does Michael will kick his a**..
I just hope Holly has gotten smarter and wont let him back in her and the kids’ lives, the kids’ are happier without him there, they can actually do things without the fear of getting yelled at, and Maya would never talk to me, she always looked so sad, afraid to say anything, then one day after he left, she started talking, and laughing, she was enjoying her little life, and little Billy doesnt need to be around Bill, and i know Bill is his father and he has the right to see his son, i just hope he doesnt rub off on Billy, hes a sweet baby and hopefully he will grow up to be a caring individual, not like his dad…

Well, I guess it’d be a little hypocritical for a parent to tell a kid not to do something that they themselves do, but some things effect a person differently depending on age, y’know? I don’t know if smoking does. But for example I know drinking can really damage a kid’s brain and keep it from growing, whereas it doesn’t effect adults as much.
