G-Chat S.O.S.

G-Chat. Gotta love it. It makes life... easier. I use it all day. Chat with the Hubs, friends, co-workers.



My teenage daughter also has it, loaded on her phone, which she carries on her at all times. You never know when she'll need to get a hold of us. Like today.

Today, I got a G-Chat S.O.S. ...and it goes a little something like this:




Daughter: Hiii

Me: Hi!

Daughter: I got my period and no one has tamopns! And I rlyy need one!
 
Me: ask the school nurse!
 
Daughter: And the nurses r CARDBOARD!!!
 
Me: that's ok
its just a little different
but i use those too
they are ok
 
Daughter: Nooooo!!
It hurtts !
 
Me: they do not hurt
just try it
 
Daughter: I already did! And there worse here than at the jr.high!

Me: you dont leave the card board part in
you know that right

Daughter: Ik!! Haha

Me: did you find one?
 
Daughter: Noooo!
 
Me: use the cardboard one
carefully
lol
 
Daughter: Nooo!! I already tried!
And it hurt!
 
Daughter: Its all over my pants!
 
Me: Taylor, your have to use the cardboard
 
Daughter:  noooooo
Daughter:  I like the nurse she's really nice
She was like I wouldn't use those stupid things either

She called Grandpa to come get her (he lives 5 minutes from the High School so much closer than the 30 it would take me to get there from work), bring her home to change, grab some PLASTIC applicator's and head back to school. Crisis adverted. Life is back to teenage normalcy.

FLASHBACK...

I did however remember that moment of panic, back in the day when you got your period in school. Just that feeling, when you got it. Walking to the bathroom, trying not to sprint, before blood is running down your leg all over the halls. Everyone walking behind you could see the blood stain. It had to be huge. Only to get to the bathroom and find out no one could see it and you were now safe to leave the bathroom. Crisis adverted.

I totally feel her pain! I had the same thing happen to me in school except the school nurse hated my mom so she wouldn't help me out!
