Well, I feel a little silly having to explain this.
When Harry Potter was being raised by his aunt and uncle, for ten years his bedroom was "the cupboard under the stairs", which I suspect must have been more of a closet than a cupboard (crazy British language barrier). Anyway, perhaps your experience is merely a prelude to a great adventure.
I suppose I should have expected a fairly low familiarity with the books. Due to the demon content, many JWs were not allowed to read them.
I have raised 3 kids. Never once did they lock me in a closet. And leave my cell phone.
You are Lucky! Kids did not leave the cell...I never said they did...I had said somehow it was there.
This is bait for Country girl.
I don't care about her too much.
If my kids had ever locked me in a closet I would of broke it down, easy to do, it is not an outside door which is stronger.
I live in a 80 year home with Original two tone color doors with one of a kind glass door knobs....That would have been a last resort.( I knew my kids were ok) Very strong door....You have not seen my home!
If two of my kids who are as young as yours did something like that, and one being so sick, I would be out there so fast, with bruised bleeding feet and hands, I mean..they could be drinking rat poison or in my liquor cabinet!!!
I don't have Rat Poison...Nor any liquor in my house. My sick child was just fine because I could hear him play. Good for you with getting bruised bleeding feet and hands..Maybe you are a better parent that I. Or maybe you have the same similarities as Country girl.
Not using a suddenly appearing cell phone and wait 20 minutes...and why did your sister know how to unlock the door? Does she have the secret key?
I didn't know the Cell phone was in the closet. I found it when it rang. If I knew it was there in the first place I would have used it right away. 20 minutes went by then I found it.Understand? Or shall I explain it again? Then I called my sister to get me out since she live like 3 minutes away. Door can't open from the inside but it opens outside. Do you get what I am saying now?
Well anyway I hope that helps you figure out an easy story to comprehend...it wasn't serious. It was just funny.

Another funny story from poor, poor Brooke.
( Waiting for mommy in law to get into this. )
LOL.....wow!
Hey,
I got a great idea, try this. http://www.mommyandme.com/
Poor Brooke!
I had four kids all between 14-16 months apart (6 years til the last one was born) but the first four (2 boys-2 girls) had bedrooms off the kitchen and ours was at the other end of the house off the living room.
Hubby was off on business overnight, and I was awoken by thick smoke just before 5:00AM. I raced out into the kitchen and discovered that the kids had taken the big plastic clothesbasket that I kept toys in, set it onto the gas stove---and set it on fire!!! They were all giggling and thought it was like a campfire!
Thankfully no one was hurt, and the mess was confined just to the stovetop, but the smoke damage was horrific through the whole back of the house. That was the first incident that came to mind, but eventually having five kids and raising a grandson---I have lots of war stories!

Thanks Annie!
Scary story. I understand kids are like that. My daughter used to try and Toast everything.
I needed that story....Thanks.
Brooke
Ha ha, Brooke!
You're too funny.
I was at the gas station, and my son kept opening the door and trying to get out of the car. So I opened the front door and power locked all the doors shut. And I distinctly remember I said "Ha ha" (like Nelson from the Simpsons) Well, the joke was on me when I realized that I left my keys in the ignition and had locked my son in the car, and locked myself out.
I started to panic until I realized that my son was pretty good at figuring things out. I told him how to unlock his door, and he did it pretty quick.
Talk about your blonde moments.
P.S. Your avatar is SO pretty!!!
P.P.S. Don't listen to idiots on here who are trying to start crap with you. They are sad, sad people. Don't even respond to that hateful crap.
P.P.P.S I love you!
Thanks Nancy........... I love your Avatar!
Oh Jaysen seems so funny and cute! I can't wait to meet him someday!
I have many blonde moments.
Thanks for the story!

One time in the car, I was talking back to my mom so much she decided I needed a spanking right then and there (anyone hear "frustrated pioneer"?). I wasn't wearing a belt (she's prone to violence, suspenders are more comfortable). She gets out of the car to get a branch off of this weeping willow on the KH property (everyone got switches off that tree- otherwise it would be 30 ft tall by now). She leaves me in the car... and I locked the car doors. And we were poor then, too. No automatic door locks then... I had to lock all 4 manually! She chose the biggest goddamn branch (b!tch), and was going to open my door to tell me to get out. I looked at her through the window and stuck my tongue out.
She ended up waiting outside the car for 30 minutes. I ended up getting the SH!T beat out of me. But it was worth it.
Who knew I would grow up to be such a loving brother apostate!
Oh yeah- glad you got out Brooke!
