My Son Ripped My STAR Magazine :)

We have three boys that at times can be the equivalent of a professional wrecking crew. I learned early on to adopt "The only thing that can't be replaced is them" as a mantra.

But it can certainly be tough at times! :o)

can you blame him! its full of glossy colorful pictures of boobies. :) I bet you can go the website and get your fix for now.

i'm amazed you have time to read! my free trial issue of peoplestyle has been sitting on my desk for the past month. i guess i won't be subscribing since i can't find time to read it. lol. go to usmagazine.com! my guilty pleasure :)

Not recently, and not mine but daddy apparently left one of his adult magazines where the kiddo could reach, he was about 6 or 7 months old, crawling (probably under the bed - just not well enough) and I found him trying to nurse from the pictures and ripping them when they would not give him any milk. Yes, I allowed him to rip up a few pages before I took it away - daddy needed to learn to not leave his things lying around where baby could get them!

okay. Evidently you are not putting it in a safe spot to begin with
two options come to mind right away
1. Read it "in your bedroom only" where you can stash it in your nightstand drawer when not looking at it
2.Read it in the bathroom where you can stach it with those other feminine products that nobody knows about :)

or find a good book ans start reading for interest and get a cross word puzzle book for leisure time

I battle my 13 month old son on a constant basis over my books. I am an avid reader so I have books everywhere (my closet, my side of the bed, both bathrooms, the living room, etc.). For months I have been trying to convince my little guy to leave them be. He LOVES to pick them up and stack them. He builds a haphazard tower which tears the covers and wrinkles the pages in the process. In general he mangles the books just by handling them. Sigh. I can't really get too mad at him. He pets each book and says 'Momma' as he builds his towers. I just get out the tape to fix the lesser books and move the important books.

Sounds like that is one thing you need to put out of reach. My oldest did that a lot to mail. I don't know what it was about it but he loved to tear stuff up.

Time to get the electronic version. :)

My girls are 6 and 4, nothing of mine destroyed lately....but I used to have a pretty fairy collection.....

LMAO!! Those magazines are my guilty pleasure too, just bought one today ;)

Funny thing is though, when I got my Kindle, my husband says 'you're, uh, not going to stop buying those gossip magazines, are you?' HAHA!!

No baby destructo today... yet... don't jinx it!

My kids didn't destroy this, but my husband's filthy rotten cat did: My beloved Buddha incense holder. It was old and cute (fat happy Buddha) and I loved it and will probably never find a replacement. Woe is me.

I swear I am going to pack up all of my things and unpack when I move to a house with a special room just for me where no children or cats may enter.

Oy.

I remember those days!!!

Ours was water. Books and water. He had this THING about "Giving books a bath." Not his books, mind. MINE.

And he was ALWAYS within sight. It's just that split second lightning fast chubby hand snags book and sploosh... all as my mouth is doing the cartoon slow "Nwaaaahh-sploosh-ooooooooooooh!"

Sounds like someone has an innate sense of truth! LOL

I'd find a better hiding place!
