what would you do if you were the easter bunny?  

hello eggy. hey you now have a job that matches your name. . you are not a very conscientious easter bunny though are you - more of a cross between the eb and santa (how many billions of glasses of sherry and mince pies does that man consume every year?). love the idea of easter bunny superpowers though.

now i am not quite sure how to break this to you debbie but i am not the easter bunny, nor wish to be. and i obtain roughly 6 eggs a week. which i eat. this is a hypothetical question for readers. probably.

bribe them enough and they would be bouncing off the walls.

oh talk about bouncing off walls,ever see kids in the library after the kids librarian has filled up chocolate easter eggs? wowee

Well the nice thing is I have two with ADHD so chocolate doesn't really do much to their behavior.

sounds a bit exhausting for you.

Can be. But, one is medicated and one is not. The one that isn't medicated just talks nonstop because he isn't all jittery like the other one is.

sounds like the medication has pros and cons. what is your opinion?

I say the only con is the $193 a month that it costs

oh yes, no nhs over your bit. but you said it made the medicated child jittery?

No, without the medication he is jittery.

oh i see. poor kid, and poor you. they grow out of it though don't they?

They can but, he is also autistic and so I'm not really sure if he will grow out of it. I've noticed his ADHD since he was about 2 and he's almost 12 and things for him unmedicated really hasn't changed over the past 10 years.

i know there is a broad spectrum of autism but that does sound tough - i think the attention deficit disorder might reduce once he hits his teens but autism doesn't go away. (although there is a possibility, but only that, that new ways of dealing with it may be developed. perhaps i read new scientist too much though) i don't want to get too personal here so feel free to ignore me but how bad is his autism?

He has Asperger's Syndrome (high functioning form) but, he struggles with a lot of different things. He has trouble adding and subtracting but, can do algebra which is hard for me to understand. He doesn't understand "norms" but, will shower and not comb his hair LOL We call him the hall monitor because everyone else must follow the rules except for him. When he is not medicated he tends to have violent outbursts and his father does not want him medicated so he gets a roller coaster ride sometimes (we have shared parenting and on my weeks to have him he gets his medication every day and when "dad" has him "dad" refuses, so I go to his school every day and give him meds). It's hard but, I don't think I would change anything except the shared parenting because it makes my son's issues much worse than what they should be.

hard thing for you to deal with - i would assume that even now he knows very well what his problems are and is no doubt bright enough to in some ways deal with them. i don't have children but i know a little about your son's condition and can imagine it is tough for you and him. incidently just about all people show some of the signs of autism - there is one i do quite often which is look at people's mouths rather than eyes when they are speaking - going off track there a bit, sorry, all the best btw

Looks like it's a lamb in rabbits clothing

satirical site. but just wanted it for the easter bunny this time. just in case though i am pointing out here that this site is not poking fun at all christians - just a particular type. - sorry alice, wanted to point that out in public so it ended up in your box.

I'm deeply offended by that remark. On what criteria do you award priority to anchovies? Oops, sorry ... wrong discussion. Memo to Self: Must read everything properly before responding. Will try to do better in future.

ah ah sandra ten lashes with a wet noodle he he

it's ok hatley. thea has done the same thing in the box below.

Hatley

There you go again Sandra boasting about how cheap your Spanish eggs are whilst I'm reduced to pilfering about under local chickens.

thea - wrong discussion

sandra - i am not the easter bunny and never claimed to be.

that is extremely kind of you. without a doubt you are the best candidate for the position of easter bunny that i have seen so far.

Show me your "jewels", wench!!!

FLASH

want some cake?

Naw, but I sure wouldn't mind eating a slice of your "pie"...

hello mr and mrs saunders.

strawberry pie?

is this a consensual relationship or are you holding the chicken prisoner?

well if it is true love then all well and good, although it is unusual for lamb/cat crosses to get together with chickens.

How about lamb/cat/bunny crosses?

Uh - are you saying, "In the name of the lamb, the cat & the bunny?"

just give me some candy, I'm confused...

it is definitely not too much to ask for, although i will point out that politicians are wandering around outside of elections so there are always opportunities for rotten eggs.

why the sad face? are you a politician?

that i will have to stockpile rotten eggs all-around the year.....

you don't have to. although you might miss out on some fabulous opportunities if you don't.

...the choice between stink and pleasure....tough one. any substitutes..??..rotten tomatoes..???
