It's Wes's son's graduation this weekend?

00:02:42 - 00:02:51 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, he's graduating from Lutheran High North Macomb. So we're going to that on Sunday. I think it's at Macomb Community College, the graduation ceremony.

00:02:52 - 00:02:56 | Speaker 5:

Which is a big place to have it because we've got a lot of grads, a lot of parents, grandparents, going to all be there.

00:02:56 - 00:02:58 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. Stepmoms? Yeah, yep.

00:02:58 - 00:02:59 | Speaker 5:

Are the kids going too?

00:03:01 - 00:03:37 | Speaker 2:

Yes. So Lucy and Smith are going. And I've got to figure this out because I heard a rumor. I asked Kieran, how long is this thing going to be? Just so I can kind of plan. And then we have dinner reservations afterwards, right? Because we're going to take him out for a dinner with everybody from his family, his mom, his stepdad, grandma, grandpa. And so I'm like, how long is this ceremony going to be? And he said, I don't know. I heard it's like three hours. Now, he could be wrong. Three hours? I hope he's wrong. Because three hours is a very long time. But he said there's a church service because obviously it's a religious school.

00:03:38 - 00:03:38 | Speaker 5:

Okay, yeah.

00:03:38 - 00:04:20 | Speaker 2:

So there's a church service, and then there's the graduation actual ceremony. And I'm thinking, I don't even know if I'm going to be able to sit there for three hours, let alone Lucy and Smith. And so I'm thinking to myself, would it be bad if I brought them their iPads? Oh, boy. So during this ceremony, they could just watch or play games on silent mode and not fidget and disrupt everybody around them. And I told Wes, I go, look, I won't let them have it for the church part, obviously. But for the rest of it, when they're calling names and doing the speeches and all that stuff, what am I going to do? I'll be honest. My kids are well-behaved, but I don't think they're going to sit there for three hours.

00:04:20 - 00:04:27 | Speaker 5:

Your kids are too old for iPads. No, they're not. They don't have phones. No, but your kid's too old to be sitting there with that.

00:04:27 - 00:04:32 | Speaker 2:

bring a coloring book and colored pencils they need to pay attention and watch they're not going

00:04:32 - 00:04:44 | Speaker 5:

to you've got a middle schooler now and then you have smith is what uh is he eight or nine he turns eight next like i think that i think ipads and things like that are for like three to five year

00:04:44 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 2:

olds i think that uh all right let me tell you this when we go to church on sunday if they don't go to the kids area yeah and they want to sit in like the adult church is what they call it They are fidgeting like mad, and that's only 50 minutes.

00:05:00 - 00:05:06 | Speaker 3:

I don't know. I think it looks like you're the tech parent that gives kids. I could give a damn.

00:05:06 - 00:05:09 | Speaker 4:

You had three boys. I am the tech parent. What did you do around their ages?

00:05:09 - 00:05:43 | Speaker 3:

Well, let me tell you that Joe, Jacob, and Luke all graduated from Notre Dame Prep, and they had also a very long service. They did mass right beforehand, and then they did the service after. I don't know if it was necessarily three hours, but it was definitely more than a couple hours. It was like two-something, because mass was at least 45 minutes or 50 minutes. the um luke was young when joe graduated because luke and joe are 10 years apart and uh i think that luke at that age was uh was much littler than uh than even smith

00:05:43 - 00:05:48 | Speaker 5:

what'd you do and i think honestly did you make him go you probably put him with a babysitter

00:05:48 - 00:06:01 | Speaker 3:

no he was there for his brother they had to all be there first off it was it's great that you guys can get that many tickets because because it's at macomb that's probably why they did theirs at their school and you only could get I think four tickets well we're still we're actually still

00:06:01 - 00:06:06 | Speaker 5:

short one so I said Smith sitting on my lap the question is what it how did they behave you

00:06:06 - 00:06:11 | Speaker 3:

skirted around the whole thing Luke I don't think I don't I don't think we gave Luke anything I

00:06:11 - 00:06:16 | Speaker 4:

don't even remember I think Luke had to pay it was he was so bad he blocked it out you know you

00:06:16 - 00:06:20 | Speaker 3:

take your retainer out of your mouth and talk like I don't have it I have a hole in my mouth

00:06:20 - 00:06:39 | Speaker 4:

oh I don't want to say what you need to take out your mouth because this is radio um you know your kids and three hours just sitting there for something they will find immensely boring, please give them some form of entertainment. You are doing the right thing. What do I pack?

00:06:39 - 00:06:41 | Speaker 3:

You know what? Just be a parent.

00:06:42 - 00:06:46 | Speaker 4:

Bro, three hours just sitting there hoping that they don't fidget. Dude, you'd fall asleep.

00:06:47 - 00:06:52 | Speaker 3:

Well, you know what? Then let them fall asleep. Drug them. Give them drugs.

00:06:53 - 00:06:57 | Speaker 4:

Let them sleep. That's the prayer, honestly, that they either fall asleep or, I don't know, find

00:06:57 - 00:07:03 | Speaker 3:

something interesting. This is, you know, Karen, this is a moment they should be there for them. You know what I mean? For sure.

00:07:03 - 00:07:11 | Speaker 5:

And I will make them put down whatever they have when it's time for people we know to walk across the stage, but or else they're going to be like, Mom, can I

00:07:11 - 00:07:17 | Speaker 3:

have your phone? Mom, can we have your phone? I don't know. I think people will take it. Mom, can we have your phone? We'll be offended by it, though. I don't know. What do you think, Janae? Hi.

00:07:18 - 00:07:23 | Speaker 2:

Hi. First of all, first time, long time. Hey, Janae.

00:07:23 - 00:07:24 | Speaker 4:

Now on the phone.

00:07:25 - 00:08:55 | Speaker 2:

um i was just letting you guys know that um lat or this past weekend um my oldest daughter graduated and it was like the first ceremony i had been to in since i graduated probably and um i brought my 12 year old and and twins that were nine two of them did all right but my nine-year-old son uh he was and he was not good the entire time and it was like the graduating class was probably like 150 kids and so i don't know how big this school is but um but our ceremony lasted two hours okay so what did what did he do and i would not have did you bring anything for No, and that was what I was going to suggest, like, even though, like, Smith is, like, older, but also, like, I don't necessarily think it's a bad idea, as long as there's no sound, because it is true that the fidgeting will be bad. More disruptive. And my son was definitely, like, he just talks incessantly, and he just was very disruptive. And if it wasn't his own sister, he would not have stayed.

00:08:55 - 00:08:56 | Speaker 4:

Yeah.

00:08:56 - 00:08:58 | Speaker 5:

Samantha's a kid in church.

00:08:58 - 00:08:59 | Unknown:

How much longer?

00:08:59 - 00:09:00 | Speaker 4:

Right.

00:09:00 - 00:09:01 | Speaker 5:

How many more minutes?

00:09:02 - 00:09:03 | Speaker 4:

Is it over?

00:09:03 - 00:09:11 | Speaker 5:

When is it done? Shut up! So I don't want that for these families around us, that this is such a momentous occasion.

00:09:12 - 00:09:13 | Speaker 3:

Vicki, hi.

00:09:14 - 00:09:15 | Speaker 1:

Hi, good morning.

00:09:15 - 00:09:16 | Speaker 3:

Hey, what's up?

00:09:17 - 00:09:28 | Speaker 1:

So I think it's totally unreasonable to expect kids to sit for that long. I mean, if you've got to give them the iPads for yourself to be able to enjoy and watch, then that's what you've got to do.

00:09:28 - 00:09:34 | Speaker 3:

I think Shannon's more worried about herself being fidgety and wanting something to watch.

00:09:34 - 00:09:42 | Speaker 5:

Honestly, I am more worried about myself being like, because i get so anxious about them being disruptive for other people like i said i

00:09:42 - 00:09:48 | Speaker 3:

don't want that what happens if the ipad uh headphones unplug or i won't even let them

00:09:48 - 00:09:53 | Speaker 5:

bring headphones i would just they they it's so weird they watch it on silent the majority

00:09:53 - 00:10:16 | Speaker 3:

of the time anyway yeah with no sound uh jen what are your uh advice for shannon on this one Thank you. my advice is that well good morning by the way good morning i think that i think that you have them stay back with a sitter or a friend or whatever for the church service and then have someone just bring them for the graduation it's all together it's all one ceremony can they show

00:10:16 - 00:10:25 | Speaker 9:

up late no do the one thing yeah just have them sneak them in once once you're there you're there Yeah, they gotta do it

00:10:25 - 00:10:28 | Speaker 3:

Okay Or maybe sneak them in the back door

00:10:28 - 00:10:33 | Speaker 8:

Unfortunately, I don't have anybody to do that They're coming

00:10:33 - 00:10:39 | Speaker 9:

Get seats towards the back Because if you're close to the front That's the problem though

00:10:39 - 00:10:49 | Speaker 8:

So apparently it's assigned seating The three of us are sitting together And everybody else is very scattered Based on the weird tickets they gave us

00:10:49 - 00:10:51 | Speaker 9:

Do mom and dad get the closer seats?

00:10:51 - 00:11:01 | Speaker 8:

No, mom Kieran's mom is sitting with his grandparents. Wes, I think, is sitting by himself. Like, they gave us very random tickets.

00:11:01 - 00:11:02 | Speaker 9:

Courtney, what's going on?

00:11:03 - 00:11:25 | Speaker 4:

I 100% think you should give the iPads and bribe them with ice cream after and say, if you make me look good, I will give you what you want after. It's like the worst parenting, but I'm desperate. I have listened for years and years, and I feel like if we called Chelsea, She would probably say Mojo was very annoying at graduation. He would not sit still.

00:11:25 - 00:11:26 | Speaker 9:

No, no, no.

00:11:26 - 00:11:33 | Speaker 4:

I have listened for years, and I've watched on, like, the Facebook, the live and stuff, and Mojo can't sit still for five minutes.

00:11:34 - 00:11:38 | Speaker 8:

He can't even get through a dirty. He has to eat or he's on his phone.

00:11:38 - 00:11:45 | Speaker 9:

I'm not going to tell you that you're wrong, but I am going to tell you that I think that people will start judging. They'll all go.

00:11:45 - 00:11:46 | Speaker 8:

Judge away.

00:11:46 - 00:11:46 | Speaker 9:

They'll all go.

00:11:47 - 00:11:51 | Speaker 8:

I am telling you now, I'm the mom with the kids with the iPads, but guess what? They're quiet.

00:11:51 - 00:11:52 | Speaker 9:

Look at that mom over there.

00:11:53 - 00:11:53 | Speaker 8:

Judge me.

00:11:53 - 00:11:54 | Speaker 9:

And by the way.

00:11:54 - 00:11:59 | Speaker 4:

That's what's wrong with our world right now is people judge everyone. And honestly, who cares?

00:11:59 - 00:12:05 | Speaker 9:

What's wrong with this world is parents who have to bribe ice cream for a kid to sit there the entire time.

00:12:05 - 00:12:09 | Speaker 4:

Oh, please. I bet all three of your kids have been bribed to do all the things.

00:12:09 - 00:12:14 | Speaker 1:

Who we really need to call is Aunt Pat. She didn't give us the real homojo. That's right, Aunt Pat.

00:12:15 - 00:12:19 | Speaker 9:

I don't think Aunt Pat may have gone to Joe's graduation. I don't think anybody.

00:12:19 - 00:12:21 | Speaker 1:

I mean, she gave us the real about what kind of kid you were.

00:12:21 - 00:12:32 | Speaker 9:

Oh, I was a good kid. I was a good kid. We didn't have, listen, we didn't have that. We used to draw on stones when we were that age. What's going on, Kayla? Hi.

Hey, I got an opinion on all this iPad and technology stuff.

00:15:00 - 00:15:06 | Speaker 4:

I'm not a fan of it. I think you need to teach your kids some discipline in that life. You've got to deal with stuff you don't want to do sometimes.

00:15:06 - 00:15:09 | Speaker 5:

That's right. Exactly. Here you all go.

00:15:09 - 00:15:11 | Speaker 1:

Okay, I'll do that. Let's see how this goes.

00:15:12 - 00:15:17 | Speaker 5:

Yes. Come on. Coming from a Marine Corps veteran. I knew it. I knew it. I knew it.
