A doctor who had been seeing an 80 year old lady for most of her life retired.
The new doc looked through her records and was suprised to see she had been prescribed birth control pills for years.
When he asked her why she needed them. she replied, "They help me sleep at night"
The doc said told her there was nothing in them that would make her sleep.
The lady said " Yes dear, I know that,but every morning I crush one up and mix it in a glass of juice for my 16 year old grandaughter,
Believe me! THAT helps me sleep at night!"

Wish my granny had done that to me. I got pregnant at 16 and it was not the way I had planned on living my life. Don`t get me wrong I love all my kids but I wanted to go in the navy.

I find myself being more tired in the day time. I think its lack of interest. In any case its harder to sleep at night at times.

Wise precaution, the day my neighbour's daughter was sixteen she moved in with a man six years older than herself,dropped out of school, and fell out with her parents,Nothing they could do.

Sylvia, we don't hear from you nearly enough, but when we do, it's always worth the wait! Thanks for the laugh. Too bad we couldn't have orange juice like that when we were kids! (Or am I the only one old enough to remember when there weren't pills?)

LOL It's sad but that isn't to far from the truth with some children these days.
